which it has caused, but also for the
delay and consequent damage it will pro
duce for the estate. Those who are
aware that the proprietor and his attorney
are doing their best to restore this fine
property to q full state of cultivation, after
many disasters and drawbacks, will feel that
any Encouragement that they meet with is
a loss to the island as we'll as to themselves.
When the last explosion occurred it
was supposed that the reason had been
that the steam guage was out Of order
and that the safety valve was rusted
and could not move. On the present
occasion we cannot say much
about the cause, the pressure may have
been too high and the valve not in Or
der; but the cause may also lie in
weakness of the boiler itself, which
was not new but had been bought
from another estate.
It is a near lying question whether
nothing can be done in the line ola
public inspection of steam boilers
every year. Such inspection is insti-
tuted by a law of 1875 in Denmark,
and although we might not be able to
obtain the very best inspection, still
something might be done to prevent
disasters like those on Big Fountain,
which have now cost thee lives.

Mr.. TAYLOR'S

Mr.. G. e Taylor delivered his
lecture on Wednesday evening, as
advertised, before an audience of
only moderate numbers, the curiosity
on the subject not apparently being
SO great as might have beensupposed.
The lecture was an able one, elo-
quently delivered, and illustrated in
the first part by practical examples,
and in the second by sketches on the
black board. Whatever may have
been the opinions Of the audience on
Mr.. Taylor's theories, and they were
no doubt almost as various as the char
acters and pursuits Of the individual
listeners, everybody present swas
greatly interested in the lecture, and
apparently satisfied of the genuine
ness Of the illustrations. Indeed to a
careful observer it was impossible to
admit the suspicion of collision be.
tween the mesmeriser andhis subjects.
1t may be remarked by the way
that the name of Mesmer was not
introduced, though, SO far as the pre-
sent writer knows, he was one of the
first who used the extraordinary
powers attributed in the lecture to
animal magnetism. At any rate his
name has been given to the induced
phenomena. Whatever explanation
may he given Of them there can be
no doubt that the induced sleep and
states of rigidity as well as mo-
ton produced at the will of the opera
torare very remarkable, and quite out
of the line of everyday matters. The
second part OF Mr.. Taylor's lecture
dealt with SpIritualism or Psychism.
1t was not illustrated by examples, as
indeed could not be expected. 1t
should be added hat the lecturer ham
died the subject in a manner calcula-
ted to give no offence to the opinions
of others, willie with great ea~rnestness
maintaining his own.

observers. Transcendental Physics is
a translation of parts of the scientific
works Of Professor Z0llner, and the
Professor calls to witness Professor
Fechner, Wilhelm Weber, and W.
Scheibner, who were present on
several of the most important occa-
sions. Psychic Facts is a collection,
"by literary and scientific authors"
of various testimonies to Spiritualism,
and includes articles by Messrs.
Crookes, Marley, Russell Wallace,
Lord Lindsay, and other we'll known
men; that is to say, we have the evil
dence of considerable-in some cases
very eminent-scientific men, both in
Germany and England. We are
bound to treat such evidence with
courtesy and respect. There can be
no doubt that these men believe that
they saw what they say they saw.
BY long practice, they have been
trained to exclude the possibility of
error in experiments, and we must
assume that they took the usual pre-
cautions, as they say that they did,
and that therefore, the conditions
were highly unfavourable to a mere
exhibition of trickerY. In these pages
there are some cases Of Sp~irituaIistic
experience recorded at secondhand
which seem to have occurred under
less stringent conditions. But of the
phenomena vouched tor as above,
candid readers will assume that they,
had they been present, would have
seen what Professor Z0llner and the
rest saw; although, Of course, it does
not follow that they would have ar
rived at the same conclusions with
regard to the causes of the facts OBJ
served. We have to deal, however,
with the phenomena,-not at present
with any theories about them; and
only premise that we are not justified
in treating them otherwise than as
appearances which have the full testi-
mony of experienced and competent
observers.
Readers who are interested in the
subject will doubtless procure the
books for themselves, and study the
whole series of experiments and infer
ences. We may here confne our
selves to some Of the more remark
able occurrences which took place in
the presence of Professor Z0llner and
his friends, and Of Slade, after the
latter had arrived from England at
Leipzig, in November, 1877. Up to
this time, Professor Z0llner had held
aloof from any examination into the
asserted phenomena of Spiritualism,
being, as he says fully occupied with
his physical researches. He had,
however, a theory, which was des-
tinted to receive what he considered
as a remarkable confirmation, and
which must be mentioned here, be-
cause his view of the phenomena to
be recorded would not be ineligible
without it. The theory adopted by
him and other scientific inquirers, is
that Of a space of four dimensions.
The earlier books of Euclid deal
with plane surfaces, that is, with
space in two dimensions only. 1t is
nrohahle that q heinO which could
, 1881-02-05


ing in four or more dimensions: and
even men may be capable Of doing
so, although unconsciously, in certain
conditions. Such our-dimensional
beings-or human beings temporarily
exalted into four dimensional capaci-
ty-would be able to do several
things impossible to us; for exam
pie according to Professor Zollner, to
tie knots on an endless string, or to
see into the contents Of closed box.
We hope our readers understand
these last consequences OF foui
dimensional activity, confessing, for
ourselves, our utter inability to follow
the Professor into this inconceivable
region. But the important thing to
note is that he previously entertained
this theory, and that the theory was,
in his opinion, confirmed by the SUBJ
sequent experiments, as seems often
to happen in similar instances. The
combinations were numerous and re-
markable. The ends of a cord were
sealed together, and the Professors
thumbs placed on the sealed ends,
while SHADES hands and feet were pro-
perly accounted for in this and the
other experiments. Under these con-
ditions, the cord was tied into four
knots by some unseen agency. Slade
could not have done it, even ifhe had
not been under the Professors eve,
since the ends of the string, which
were necessary to him as 3 three
dimensional agent for the purpose,
were safe under the Professors
thumbs. Yet the thing was lonesome
how; and done just as Professor
Z6llner had hoped, in accordance
with his theory. 1t became quite
common for solid matter to move
through solid matter. Slate-pencils
found their way il to closed boxes and
through tables. At other times,
tables would disappear altogether,
being elevated. we are told, into the
fourth dimension, and thus disappear
ing from ordinary vision. We are
sorry to say that on one such occa-
sion a vanished table, on its reappear-
ance, came down among the heads of
the company, and bumped the Pro-
lessor severely, thus displaying that
taste for low comedy which four
dimensional powers appear to evolve
in furniture. It was then proved that
"enclosed space of three dimensions
is open to four dimensional beings"
by placing sooted paper within
closed boxes, on which Impressions
of hands and feet were obtained.
But the motion of matter through
matter was apparently proved by a
very remarkable experiment. The
Professor had two solid wooden rings
turned, one of oak, and the other Of
alder. This he did hoping that the
two rings might be interlinked
without solution of continuity" as
in that case, "the test would be
additionally convincing, by close
microscopic examination of the unbro-
ken continuity of the fibre" He
also provided himself with a piece
of dried catgut, because, "should a
knot be tied in this band, close nil
croscopic examination would also
reveal vybothar the connection of the

singular, therefore, to know how com

H., No. 40.
Another Of the most respected and
beloved members of our Order has
passed away, by direction of Provi-
dence, to the house appointed for the
living. We respected him as friend,
neighbor and citizen, but as a Mason,
bound by the triple tie, we came to
know him best, to esteem, to appre-
ciate and TO love him most. But he is
gone. His end was calm and peace
full. No struggle of expiring nature
marked his exit; no doubts or fears
disturbed or clouded his last moments,
In peace with God and all mankind,
he quietly fell asleep, trusting in his
Savior and in the divine promise of
Immortality and eternal blessedness.
He died Christian; of his salvation
there can be no doubt
In token of our respect, and as a
feeble tribute TO the memory of our
deceased brother, be it, therefore,
Resolved, That we tender to the
bereaved children and relatives Of the
deceased our deepest sympathy in
their irrcparable loss, and that we can
onl " point them for sure relief from
sorrow to Him to whom we meekly
bow with reverence and submission,
knowing that He lovcth whom he
chasteneth, and scourgeth every son
whom He receiveth, and believing
that our loss is his eternal gain.
Resolved, further, that copy of
these resolutions be spread upon the
minutes Of the Lodge, and that the
furnish copy of the same
properly certified, to the family of our
deceased brother. Fraternally,

down the hill one truck broke down
and threw one box from the track,
scattering the goods for 80 or 40 feet
on each side of the track, so we all
got on to the engines and started for
leagues, leaving the wreck lying on
the road, and had not run more than
two miles before the engineer and fire
man were thrown from the cab and
badly injured, but nevertheless, the
engine stopped in J. B. rs field, an
