DR.. Buckner, Of Covington, gave
spiritualism a decided setback a
few nights ago. A spirit medium
with two female companions had
been holding seances in his house
without his consent. The doctor
entered the parlor and found a
meeting in progress, with two
"spirits" performing for the edifca-
ton of the guests assembled. He
grasped them both and found them
to be the women in question. He
then-seized the medium and swept
the floor with him and the seance
came to sudden termination.

"We know that We have espoused

know that we have not permitted
duty to country to wait upon expe-

We know that we have not deceived
the people with false p,omises and
pretenses; and We know that we
have not corrupted NOR betrayed
with the money of the rich. Who
shall say that these things promise
no reward, and that triumph shall
not follow the enlightened judgment
and the sober second thought of on
countrymen? There are to-day ne
