tim of a audden and complete, loss nf mem
ory. Thla dislocation of memory is a variety
of aphasia known as amnesia, and when
,thi memory Is recurrently lost and re-

ciety for Tsychlcal Research and many
eminent payehologlst. among them the late
William Jamea. Ir. Weir Mitchell. Pr.
Hodgson of Host on, and Pr. A. E Osborn
of San Francisco, have reported many
cases of alternating personality. Studious
efforts are being made to understand and
to explain the strange tvpe of mental phe
nomena exhibited In these rases; but no
ona has ever yet given a clear and com
prehensive explanation of them. Such cases
are by no meana always connected with dis
appearances, and exhaustive studies have
been made of types of alternating pc-r-sonalltle
that have from flrat to last '..een
carefully watched by scientists of the fitoi
rank. The variety known as the ambula
tory type, where the patient suddenly loses
all knowledge of his own Identity and of
his past, takes himself off. leaving no trace
or clew, la the variety which the present
rase calls to popular Interest.
A Raffling; Case.
Dr. H. O. Leigh, sr., of Petersburg. Va.,
has recorded th caae of a mysterious dis
appearance that excited the popular atten
tion and baffled the police some twenty
years ago. The subject waa a Mr. K. of a
-small town In Virginia. At the time of
his disappearance he was 60 years old. of
splendid physique. In good health and tn
fairly prosperous clroumatancea. He was
known to be a sober, moral and Indus
trious man, happy and contented In hla
domeatlo relations. Born and reared In
Virginia, he had conducted business for
twenty years In the town where he re
sided. Coming north on a business trip to
purchase goods for his store In this city,
he remained here for two days, during
which time he transacted a good deal of
business, met his friends and showed no
Indication of aberration of mind.
Starting horn by a steamship line on
which he waa accustomed to travel and
and which he waa a well known passenger,
In registered and retired to his state
room. When the tickets were collected he
waa missing. He had suddenly and mys
teriously disappeared. No one had seen
htm leave the boat, jump or fall over
board. His open valise and all his clothe
were found In his stateroom. The room
door waa open, but the key had been .taken
awav.
Police and press looked for him, In v.aln.
Finally Investigation was abandoned, the
theory that he' was dead was accepted,
and the courts appointed an administrator
for his estate and a guardian for hla chil
dren. Six months later he suddenly ap
peared at the home of a relative In a dis
tant aouthern city.
He waa brought home In a composed,
but partially dazed stats, able to recog
nize but few of his friend. Ha waa re
duced In weight from 2M to li0. He. wore
the same suit he had on when he disap
peared, and In his pocket waa found the
check and key 4o hla. stateroom. He waa
put under treatment, and in a month's
time had completely recovered hla prevloua
bodily and mental health, ' and has 'since
remained In a perfectly, normal state.' A
i day or two after his ' return home an
Isbscesa In hla ear broke, and from that
time on his return to health went rapidly
forward.
Mr. K own account of this caae runs
as follows: "I was feeling very tired after
a busy day In the city; so I went to my
stateroom Immediately upon going abroad
the boat and changed my clothes. I'p
to that time I was thoroughly conscious;
but I recall nothing more. All Is oblivion
with me until, six months later, 1 came to
. tn 1 f In a HUtani (,.. In iha a i . . T
found myself driving a fruit wagon on
I the at reel. I was utterly astounded. Upon
' Inquiry I learned that I had been there
at work for some time. My life sinew I
waa In that stateroom six months before
waa an absolute blank to me. I can give
no account of myself during that period."

tention. The first case Is that of a man
paat middle age, seemingly In robust
health, living in a small town suburban
to Philadelphia. He vas by trade a tln
' smith and plumber and had built up for
himself a thriving trade. His grown sons
had already assumed the cares of his
business, and he appeared to be entering
upon a period of eaae and prosperity.
On th Sunday on which he disappeared
be had been in the house all day. About
4 o'clock he roae from the lounge on which
he had been reading, changed hla dress
ing Jacket for a coat and hla slippers for
shoes, and announced that he was going
out for a breath of fresh air. He stepped
out of hla front door and was gone. Two
jeara passed before he waa heard of again.
Of th I, Inhabitants of hla native
town none saw him leave. Although he
waa known to the trainmen of the rail
road connecting the small town with the
outer world no one could recall having
seen him. Rewards were useless. Innumer
able theories were advanced; but they only
mad confusion worse. He had taken no
money with him. His business affalra were
In a prosperous state. In the course of
time the arch for him waa given up and
ria family removed to Chicago.
Two year bad paaaed, when In a tin
1 shop tn a southern city a man suddenly
dropped hla work and cried out: "My God!
Where am IT How did I come her. This
isn't my shop!" It waa th mlaslag tin
smith, wbo after months of wandering
seemed to be waking a from- a somniam
b"llstlo sleep.
He was known a a wandering tinner,
who bad drifted Into th town and sought
1 work at his trade. No on bad suspected
'bat he was not in a normal atate of mind.

A curious part of hia hlatory I that while
working at hia trade In the south h had
for over a year received good wag and
was noted among hla fallow workmen for
hla rareful and saving habits, yet when
he came to himself he was penniless, and
he h.is nevr since been able to recall what
he dll with his money.

The sei nnd esse of disappearance re
corded by I)r. Osliorn la that of a brilliant
and well known lawyer and politician,
a former congressman. He lived also In a
town suburban to Philadelphia. One day
he got up from his desk In hla office. leav
ing a law book open at a page he hnd been
consulting, a niasf. of urgent work unfin
ished In his desk and a number of tin
cashed checks, lie walked out of his of
fice and vanished.
After several months had passed word !
came through official government, chan-
pels that he waa In Australia, where he j
had applied to the consul to help him reach I
home. He had come to himself on a steam
ship nearlng an Australian port, quite pen-1
niless and broken In health. Ills passage
money was forwarded and he returned
home. After a short period of recuperation
he returned to his profession. He haa been
normal ever alnce.
I 'r. Osborn'e third recorded case Is that
of a young Irish coachman who was se
verely injured In a runaway accident In
which his brother-in-law and a friend were
killed. The accident occurred In the pres
ence of a crowd, yet In the confusion when
the bodies of the two who were killed had
been removed from the wreckage no trace
could be found of the coachman. No one
had seen him after the final catastrophe.
The next day. when he whs still belntj
sought for everywhere, he reappeared at
the door of his home, badly Injured and
unable to speak. His recovery was ex
trenily slow and for a time his mind seemed
to he gone. He gradually re-established
himself, but memory was the last thing
to return to him. lr. Osborn especially
noted a complete, though gradual, change
of outward appearance of expression, voice,
almost of feature. When he lKan to pull
around attain he was unrecognizable to his
Intimate friends. Hla whole character had
altered, and with It his outward appear
ance. "Why." asked I'r. Osborn, "may not such
changes appear suddenly? Is time a nec
essary element? We may not yet know
the subtle forcea accounting for the orig
inal disappearing impulse; hut If It shall
be found that the human face and form
can within a few momenta undergo such
changes as to render them easily unrec
ognisable at ordinary sight then we shall
have a plausible explanation for the most
mysterious phase of these sudden disap
pearances, the consistent failure of anyone
to recognize these unhappy victims of loss
of memory a they drop out of Right."

A PROPOSITION PASSED UP
Insnranee as a. Care for Industrial
Discontent Considered by
Paal Morton.
One of our younger philosophers had
what must -have been a most Interesting
talk with the late Paul Morton sometime
ago which neve got into print, and
probably never will. The late president of
the Kquitable was understood to be casting
about very enterprisingly for big new
propositions with which to startle the in
surance world, or at leaat start something
that would build up the business of the
Kquitable, and that waa very important at
the time because' the ' Investigation had
lopped off millions f : om Its revenues as
well as from the revenues of the other
two big companies. This young visitor to
the president of th Equitable had some
thing on his mind. He' saw a country
wide agitation for workmen's compensation
developing a demand, whether real or just
Imaginary and noisy that the present em
ployers'-, liability system of the United
States, or of the various states, would ba
supplanted', by . another system, Imported
from England or "made In Qrjnany," One
or th other, by which every employ, ven
If he were, only washing your front steps
or picking up stones In the corn, lot, should
be compensated by his employer for an In
Jury that he received). It was stated boldly
to Paul Morton that agitation waa going
to fructify in something very strange. If
not very dangerous, In a socialistic way
for this country, provided something
wasn't done to see what was the matter
with the scheme, and tell the publto about
It, and stop the flood of compulsory laws
Intended to put it Into force, and Introduce,
the same system or a better one by means
of private enterprise and private capital.
Mf.iorton wasn't quite clear as to how
the legislation could be combatted, though
he had known more or less about politics
In' the Roosevelt way. He could discern
much more clearly that In the matter of
writing Industrial Insurance, though the
Innumerable agents of the Kquitable and In
th Innumerable factories of the country,
direct and by wholesale, there was a
chance to make a pile of. money or at
least to compel It to be saved, provided a
new policy could be devised that would
appeal to the average worklngman, whether
union man or not, as about the thing for
safety and economy; and better still, aa
the aon of our earliest real aecereary of
agriculture could see a tremendous social
service would be done for the country
through this wldespred application of a
correct and liberal Industrial insurance
system to the producers of the land, not
with the patronage of the state and com
ing out of everybody, but by means of
a common fund, to which everybody had
contributed and from which, therefore,
everybody would be entitled to draw not
gratutty, but something which the man
himself had saved' and was entitled to
because he had earned It and saved It.
He heved did anything with this I don't
know why. Perhaps Paul Morton cdTSJn't
move hla directors. Perhaps he simply
never got to It.- If so, It was not because
he did not look a long distance ahead. He
distinctly assented that day to the gen
eral proposition that Just aa Industrial In

he has been trying toy satisfy the. demands
of his energetic nature, have fallen short,

"Fighting Bob" declared he would rather
be replaced In command of a fleet even of
barges than be made president of the
f nlted States and dictator to the powers.
"I haven't been able to find out yet what
contentment a life ashore seems to yield
so many people," said Admiral Rvana.
"For two years I have been trying to fig
ure It out. I have lost myself In a maze
of business enterprises. but changing
money never can take the place of the old
times at sea. I Intend to move my resi
dence from Washington to California,
where most of my newlv acquired business
interests are. There I shall build me a
home by the ocean.
"There is no Job on earth to compare
with that of commanding a fleet of battle
ships. Presidents come and they go, but
the admiral goes on aa long as the pension
system admits, Irrespective of the tips and
downs of politics ashore.
"Look at me now! When I con:? Into a

REAL ANANIAS CLUB IN ACTION

"Weahhy eastern men now wintering In
PasaOena have formed one of the most
remsrkable clubs In the world. They have
named Jt the Ananias club, and its only
object is to afford them an opportunity
to meet and "swap Ilea."
The members do not mind using one of
Roosevelt's "plain and uglies" because they
thus refer to the tall stories -they tell when
they meet , nightly after dinner In a se
cluded corner of , the palm room at the
Hotel Green. The' president of the club Is
Edwin Milner of Providence, R. I., a di
rector of the New , York at New Haven
railroad.
After dinner every night these men retire
to a portion of the palm room at the
hotel.
No other guest, unless he Is a newcomer,
a touring tenderfoot as it were, breaks Into
the charmed circle where lie are swapped.
While each member endeavors to think up
a yarn with which to cap the remarkable
story previously told, the air la filled with
fragrant smoke from Havanas.
Only artists can tell Impossible yarns and
make them "come over," but all these men
are artists in this line. Baron Munchausen
could not hold a candle to them were he to
come back In the flesh, nor would Ander
sen of fairy tale fame.
All the members are staying here for the
winter. Most of them come here year after
year as soon as there are signs of snow In
the east, and they intend to keep the
Ananias club going.
Mr. Milner owea his election to the presi
dency to his deeds on the golf links of the
Anandale Country club. He beat John T.
Greenwood the other day In one of th
most remarkable game ever seen on th
club's course. All had bets on the out

going to be the winner when be had an
eaay shot to make at the last hoi. But
his last putt lacked strength, and his ball
halted on the edge of the cup. Milner,
realising that It waa a caae of now or
never, neatly put the ball Into the hole and
carried off the honors of the game.

Australian Government Curing
Drink Habit
i .
Adopts Famous Neal Cure
Sending Sunshine and Happiness Into Hundreds of Darkened
Homes Instead of Inflicting Fines or Prison Cells
Upon Our Unfortunate Citizens
The Duty of Our National, State and Municipal Governments
(From Chicago Record-Herald.)
The government of AustikJla has set
S.11 example worthy of imitation by
the other nations of the world. Realizing
the extent, enormity and the awful con
sequences of the drink habit, they have
for years past been investigating its
cause, effect, treatment tnd possible cure.
In the year of 110 It. v. A. C. Ranklne,
commissioned by that government, visited
the United Btatea, and after a thorough
Investigation of drink habit treatments,
he returned to his government last Sep
tember and made detailed ( lengthy re
port, recommending the adoption of the
NEAL. THREBJ-DA.T DRINK HABIT
C'UHIS. The government of South Aus
tralia adopted his report and ealabllbhed
the Cure In a large government sanitar
ium, where those addicted to the drink
habit are treated at the Government's ex
pens Instead of being fined or sent to
prison cell
Du 4og the first ninety days exactly
Blnty-lghi paraona so afflicted were
cured by the Neal treatment at govern
ment expense; restored to cltlsenahlp aa
healthy men and good cltlxecs. In ad
dition to thla, reports tbow that more
than double that number availed thetn
elvvs ef th Neal treatment In private
sanitariums in Australia
Professional and scientific research and
Investigation of th centuries has recent
ly culminated tn the establishment ef
the fact that the drink habit, so called.
Is aaus.1 by tb polaon of aloouol stored
up in the system by the lung continued
