FEAR OF HYPNOTISM
IT GIVES A SINGLE YOUNQ MAN
ANXIETY.
He It Afraid Ha la Going to Bs Mar
ried In Spite of Himself, and So Ha
Gives the License Clerk a Timely
Warning.
Lowell Putnam la In a predicament.
He Is afraid lie Is (filing to be mar
ried. He doesn't want to be married
ret ho is fearful tlint lie will awnkon
some morning ami find a wife among
his possessions. He ue'levea Hint a
certain young woman lins set lu-r cap
for lihn anil will carry her desire uuo
effect by livinotizln' lilm.
I'litmim called at (lie marriage li
cense olllce yesterday and explained
matters, partially. He Uiil not go in
to many details, but he wanted It thor
oughly understood that If lie called at
the Courthouse, and asked for B li
cense to wed it was to be refused. He
said he did not want a license and 'f
he came for one It would be evident
that lie was under the hypnotic Influ
ence of the young woman who accom
panied him.
The rather peculiar remarks led a
member of the ltepubllc staff to ask
Mr. Putnam for iiu explanation. Mr.
rut nam was at his home, 1121 North
Leonard avenue, and he received the
reporter In a room whose walls were
literally covered with guitars, mando
lins and violins. They were hung In
racks which extended from the cell
ing to the floor, nnd scattered about
on tables and chillis were other Instru
ments. Piles of music lay upon the
mantle shelf and filled the bookcase.
Mr. I'utnam explained the array with
the remark that he played a little
sometimes. In the directory he Is ac
credited with being a professional mii
sielnn. He became ill at ease when the
subject of his visit to the marriage li
cense office was broached and said
that hypnotism had caused him a great
(leal of trouble and notoriety which, lie
said, he was anxious to Rvold In the
future. After a time, however, he con
sented to say a little about the case.
"Koine time ago I met a young wo
man who has since manifested mi un
usual Interest In me. I did not mind
this at Hist because she Is refined and
pretty. Hut a week or two ago I dis
covered she was In love with me and
wished to marry me. Perhaps she did
not say so In so mnny words, but 1
Interpreted what she did say and her
actions correctly, I know.
"Then I realized for the first t ine
the power she had over me. I followed
her merest suggestion without being
able to tell why except that it was
hypnotism Sometimes these sugges
tions were spoken, sometimes not. At
nny rate, I obeyed them."
It was remarked that perhaps Mr.
Futnam, because of his previous ex
perience with hypnotists, was an un
usually good subject, and the young
woman was simply experimenting; up
on him. Mr. Putnam shook his head.
"No; she lins an object I am not go
ing to tell you how I found out It was
her Intention to marry me, but it was
In a way that leaves no doubt In luy
mind as to her Intentions. She has re
solved upon It, and my trip t the li
cense office was simply for my own
protection. I have no objections to the
young woman personally, but I do not
Intend to marry her If I can help It.
"I know from what I have done at
her suggestion that it would be (in
easy matter for her to come here some
mronlng, 'place me In her power and
compel me to obtain a llcein-e, ar.d
marry her. While in a hypnotic t-ta ri
my actions do not betray the fact to
any one, nnd, therefore, no preacher
would refuse to mnrry us. I know
what Is going on, but am powerless to
break sway from the Influence which
this young lady exerts over me.
"I explained- mutters nt the license
office fully, and told the man I saw
there not to give me a license under
any condition whatever. I told him
that if I did apply 1 might plead ever
so hard for the license and offer him
any reward If he would Issue It, but
he must not listen to me, Us I would
be in a hypnotic state If I applied for
the paper.
"Of course, If the girl learns of this
for I do not think she understands
the complete control she has over me--she
will probably try and get me under
her control and take me to some other
elty for the purpose of marrying me.
Cor that reason I have taken other pre
cautions of which I do not care to
speak."
Mr. Putnam refused to give the
name of the pretty young woman who
Is trying to hypnotize lilm, and his
brother Joseph, who Is employed in a
Washington avenui wholesale house,
said he could not imagine who she
might be. In fact, he was surprised to
hear of the affair, he Bald. He claimed
to know of no one whose actions might
lean his brother to believe she wna
trying to marry him.
Mr. rut nam Is about SO years old.
He received considerable advertising
a few years ago when a hypnotist and
spiritualist left town rather suddenly
after interesting a number of young
persons in his work. The occasion of
his departure was a tragedy in which
the son of one of the best known fam
ilies in town figured. St. Louis Repub
lic. Phonography.
Shorthand of a rudimentary sort was
practised by the Komans. Jlro, the
freeduian of Cicero, introduced a sys
tem which was only an abbreviated
longhand. The ideal held before them
by Inventors of more modern systems
la more rapid and accurate. It is des
cribed by one of the early fathers of
the art, Peter Bales (ir-7-l(ilO), In
these words: "To write as fast as a
man speaketh treatably." He acknowl
edges that this may s.-ein hard saying,
but Insists that in effect the method
la very easy, "containing a many com
modities under a few principles, the
shortness whereof is attained by mem
ory, and swiftness by practice, and
sweetness by Industry."
Not even an approximation, however,
to this ideal was readied until 1N.'(7,
with the publication of I suae pitman's
system of shorthand, entitled "Phon
ography." He revolutionized the art
by making his tenngraphic signs repre
sent the sounds of the Kugllnh letters
Other Inventors like Anderson atu'
Taylor, have made more or less Impo

mind of modern phonography and hi

RIDING A BUCKING MULE.
A "Puncher's" Adventure From the
Indian Territory.
The Century Mnaz ne's prize for the
best short story submitted by a college
Indent has been awarded to John
M. Osklson of Iceland Stanford
t'ulverslty, whose home Is In the li.dl
n Territory, nnd whose blood Is part
ly Indian. "Only the Master Shnll
Praise" Is Its title; and one of its
scenes Is a description of a ride n a
bucking mule.
Out of a knot of excited men Hfinner
went straight to the wnltlng, ri-stleea
mule. AVIth a mock nlr of bravado, h
struck the excited mule across t e
flank with his sombrero, nfter roughly
seizing the reins. No one who has not
learned by experience how to mount
a plunging horse can understand how
Hnnner lifted himself out of the chaos
of rearing mule and struggling atten
dants into the saddle brfore he si ned
to the men to turn the animal loose.
When the mule found Itself fiee to
net there was a momentary pnino.
Then began the short, nasty Jumps
straight into the air, with the niiiuia's
back bowed, its legs stiff, and its bead
lowered. It was the first powerful ef
fort of the angered beast, made with
devilish confidence. Hanner was
scarcely shaken by these first strn'g it
Jumps, but then begun the twisting
series which Is the second expedient of
a bucking nnimnl. A .lump high Into
the air, with a seemingly Impossible
twist to tlieslde, Innded the mule with
its head turned almost half round. Be
fore the rider caught his breath mi
other Jump nnd another half -turn were
made. These are the motions that
make 8 bronco-buster's life shorter.
Hnnner was bleeding at the nose in
half s minute. The twisting Jumps
were eon tin tied until the strength of
the mule was almost exhausted and as
yet only the hat of the puncher had
lieen dislodged. A short pause followed
placed upon the pnper-covered plale
during which the mule changed ils tac
tics and Hnnner thwacked its sweaty
neck with his open hand. The next
motion was a sudden rearing by the
mule. As It rose on its hind legs, the
rider yanked fiercely on the reins, nnd,
slipping to the ground on one side nl
lowed the brute to fnll on Its back.
The saddle horn burled Itself In the
earth, and the mule's hoofs beat the
nlr a moment before It scrambled to Its
feet.
Hanner wns cooler than the mule
now, nnd swung himself back into the
saddle with the first long lenp of the
desperate animal. This wns the ensy
part of the trial for the rider, and the
spectacular part for the world. The
mule ran straight away for the oppo
site fence of the fair-grounds with
long, lunging Jumps, rising nnd pil ril
ing forward with the speed of a rac
ing yacht. Hanner brought his craft
about before it stilled Into the fence,
and beat It fore and aft with a flour
ishing hnnd. He wns wild with tri
umph now, his hnlr blowing in the
wind. He lenned forward bs In a race,
urging the thoroughly tired and con
quered mule straight for the crowd. A
particularly vicious dig with the spurs
mado the beast plunge Into the scatter
ing knot of spectators and rise to a
four-barred gate. At the opposite side
of the track no fence barred Its way,
and It ran, frightened and quivering
under the awning of a lemonade-vender's
stand, sesttering glasses nnd con
fections to the winds, nnd wrecking
the stand. Hanner slowly dismounted,
stroked the sweaty flank of the sub
dued mule, then turning and picking
up an unbroken bottle of soda, pro
posed a toast "to our gentle old family-buggy
hoss!"
8CIENCE EXPLAINS.
Bible Miracles Are Not Essential to
Christianity.
Miracles as an article of faith . were
tnken out of Christianity by Prof. Ben
jamin V. Bacon, of the Yale Divinity
School, the other evening. He spoke
before the Men's Club of the United
Church on the theme "Is a Belief In
Miracles Ksseiifial to Christianity?"
At the outset I'rof. Bacon declared
til ii t it wns not, and he said 'that the
greater part of the miracles of the
Bible can now be explained by scien
tific reasoning. They were regarded
originally as miracles because they
were not understood. He pointed to the
alleged miraculous destruction of arm
ies and multitudes of people according
to the Old Testament, asserting that
some plague which was not understood
fell upon the armies, and that because
of the enormous number of deaths
which followed a miracle wns said to
have beeu wrought.
Prof. Bacon explained the crossing
of the Bed Sea by the children of Is
rnel by saying that It had been been
found that high winds actually drive
the sea back at the exact spot where
the miracle Is supposed to have taken
place, and that probably the children
of Israel arrived at Just the time when
one of these was blowing.
He declared that the test of the mir
aculous was "permanent incomprehen
sibility." The only two miracles which
have stood the test of science in at
tempts to explain are, he said, the Res
urrection and the Crucifixion. He re
ferred to many of the miracles of the
New Ttestament as "legendary accre
tions," declaring that the narratives
were written down from memory,
years after their occurrence, by the
Apostles.
Prof. Bacon'a address is said to have
been based on the doctrine taught in
the Yale Divinity School. N. Y.

UP TO TMK MINUTE
(RIALS OF A NEW YORK CREDIT
MAN.
Tricks Some Persons Use to Defraud
Big Stores and Measures Taken for
Their Prevention People Who May
Be Trusted Referencea.
I'p to (late Is not t Hough for the cred.
It man of a big New York department
-lore. He must be up to the minute.
The tricks that were tried on him nn
hour niro nte ancient history, pigeon
holed In his memory. His business
ai the present moment is vith the
Hick which the l.ite.-t seeker after
credit may be trying to piny on him.
lie must be cnrefnl not to drive away
a good customer whom It Is safe to
rust, and he must be erptnlly, or more,
careful not to give credit to one who
(iinnot or will not pay. Ills employers
do not accept nny excuses. He must
not say that he tl tl not know about
. o-and-So's financial condition. It Is
his business to know. His value to his
house depends on the amount of cred
it he grants nnd the small per cent of
less which comes of it. Thete Is abso
lutely no sentiment about the matter.
"Suppose n ninn whom you knew to
lie perfectly honorable, but in tempo
rary straits, should ask you for end
It?" This was the question I put to
M e credit man of the depart ment store
doing the lnrgest credit business in
New York.
"He would not get It." was the an
swer. "Intention dees not count for
much. Ability to pay Is the thing."
Last year this si ore lost barely one
half of one per cent, of the credits it
extended.
The credit methods of the several
large stores in New York are substiin
t'nlly nlllie, the only essential dillcr
cin e being In the degree of skill with
which the various credit men deny
people without offerdlng them. First,
there Is the Itetali Healers' Protective
Association, composed of most of the
New York retailers who do any credit
business. For the benefit of its mem
bers this association Issues from time
to time a book of ratings of habitual
credit seekers. The latest book con
tains more than thirty-two thousand
names, the ratingn being based upon
actual dealings with members. The ns
loelatlon also makes special investiga
tions for its members and undertake!
the collection of accounts.
Supplementing this, each large store
lias a system of cards, on which ate
written the standing of every known
New Yorker who If at all likely to ask
for credit. For instance, a white card
Indicates that the person whose nnme
It hears Is worthy of credit. Memoran
da of the extent of his credit nnd of
nny facts coiicetnl..g him ate recorded
there. Should futm-e information show
that he Is slow in his payments, his
mime is tiausferr. d to a red card, and
the reasons recorded there. Should he
nt Inst turn out to be unworthy of
credit, his name ir placed on a blue
card, and he is stopped from getting
anything save for spot cash.
The credit man's assistants are con
stantly nt work on these cards. They
study nil the dally newspapers and ev
ery other source of possible lnfornia
lion concerning the financial condition
of New Yorkers. A birth may mean
that the parents have an added ex
pense, which makes It the harder for
them to pay their way. A death may
have lessened the earning power of a
family. A marriage or a divorce may
either Increase or diminish a man's
or woman a financial resiionslblllty, ac
cording to the circumstances of it.
If Judgments are entered, If mort
gages are given. If any kind of trouble
comes to anybody whose name Is card
ed In the credit department, note is
made of It.
But the shrewdness of the credit
n.nn Is most called Into nlnv when he
has to deal with persons of whom he
has no record; and these come by
acmes every week.
"My first Imprefslons are always
best," said one of these keen men "to
me. "The first time I see a person I
inn on guard with all my faculties. The
next time I mny be Influenced by some
little thing which would have made no
impression nt first. I don't believe I
ever changed my first Impression that
I did not make a mlstnke one way or
the other: and It Is as bad for me to
refuse credit to a worthy person as to
give it to an unworthy one.
"We don't care much for bank ref
erences," he added. "They are apt to
he too sanguine. I know that bankers
are often loose in their recommenda
tions, so I set the Iietail Dealers' Pro
tective Association to making special
Investigations. They often find that
huge properties are more than covered
by mortgages, that unsatisfied Judg
ments stand against very well recom
mended nniiies. Ifeferences are neces
sary of course, but we have to take
them with many a grain of salt."
V c divide people into three teneral
clai-ses. For example, the recommen
dations of public men are seldom of
any value. A politician will usually
recommend anybody who has a vote
or eon influence one. And as to clergy
men, their sympathies get away with
their Judgment. The woman who
comes with the recommendntion of her
pnstor Is pretty sure to be disappoint
ed." "What genernl class do you regard
as the safest risk"'''
"Army and navy people can have all
the credit they wisn and no questions
asked. Hie standard of business mo
rality in the army snd navy Is positive
assurance that we will get our mon
ey." There are ahout one hundred Blhles
rcurieied rare and curious hy misprint
or errors. Among them are the -'Vine-Car"
Hilile, wherein that word Is snli
stituted for vineyard in the parable;
the -I'lacemakers" Bihle, where that
word takes the place of peacemaker.
