wONDERFUL INDEED.

This is a mad. rekcckless and break-ne
age. Wonders have been crowding thick
and fast upon humanity till at last it must
be a marvel indeed tn, excites more than
passing notice. Pain-de ,,roying cocaine,
Pasteur's remedy for the Inad dogs fang,
the quadruple telegraph ystem, the tele-
phone, photograph and other miracles
wrought with the electric current, the air
brake, the elevated railway and thousand
and one wonders besides, have all come in
a food during recent years and nearly
paralyzed the sense of surprise in man.
But of all the achievements of science
and genius none If more genu-
inely surprising than the wonderful one
accomplished in Chicago Wednesday,
when a nervous young man performed the
amazing feat, mental, psychological or
physical as the case may be, which only a
lew short months ago brought Washing
ton Irving Bishop to an untimely grave.
With eyes blindfo'ded and heavy cloak
snveloping his head, he drove from one
hotel TO another through the crowded
streets, went directly to the register and,
vision still obscured, correctly gave name
and date therein previously selected by a
special committee of prominent citizens,
and even transcribed tre name on a piece
of paper, making almost a fac
simiIe of that on the book.
There was no doubt of the
genuineness of the test. 1t was accom-
plished under circumstances which admit
of no suspicion Of its full authenticity, and
the operator was evidently nearly over
come by the mental strain twice before the
trying experiment was completed The
committee was naturally deeply amazed at
the seemingly supernatural achievement,
while dozens of psychical students testified
their profound appreciation OF the feat by
enthusiastically appaading the mind
reader, hypnotist or what not that the
wonderful operator chances to be.

REPORTS from London are to the effect
that signs Of cholera are fast disappearing
there. 1t was not anticipated that the
plague would gain foothold in that city,
and now the near approach of cooler
weather would seem to Justify firm pre-
diction of the complete immunity of the
community. Still, experience has shown
that there is danger from infection in the
warm season following the ravages Of
cholera in the east. Vigilance will be
necessary for many months to come in
order to secure complete safety in northern
cd western Europe and in this country
when another summer comes.

The Psychic Realm,


We have hardly crossed the threshold of
our investigation, but even in the present
stage it seems evident that ghost
sights and 'ghostly' sounds and phantas-
NAL experiences generally, form part of a
large class of phenomena, for which there
is some testimony from all ages, and which
are now forcing an acknowledgment Of
their existence from the scientific world.
We cannot hope to explain a part COM
pletely until we know the whole. Can We
even dimly descry the limits of our own
mentation in its entirety? In quite an
other sense than the poet meant, we move
about in worlds not realized, and. similar
ly, we who move do not realize ourselves
In the process of evolution, with the in
crease OF complexity between creature and
environment we are gaining also an in
crease Of knowledge of their completely
As in the macrOcosm, so in the microCosm,
the view is widening all the way; the stars
that once were interpreted as the gold
headed nails driven into the dome of a
solid armament have now receded into the
abysmal depths of hmitiess evolving
heaven; and no more than the earth is the
centre of the universe, may the tiny win
dow of sense-consciousness through which
we daily peep and pry, be the true measure
of the soul of man.

THE Springfield, Mass, Republican,
speaking of the late discussion between
Powderly and Vice-President Webb, says:
With every disposition to vindicate the
rights of abor-indeed, because of that
disposition-we must recognize that the
management of the New York Central
railroad made far more honorable show
ing than the Knights of Labor in the in
vestigaton recently. Mr.. Webb's state
ment is the sober truth, the railroad is not
called upon to tell the public, or the
Knights OF Labor, why a man is discharg-
ed, although they owe that information to
the man himself; the railroad is deeply re-
sponsibe to the public for the performance
of its duty as public carrier of lives and
goods. But Mr.. Powderly's correspond
ence with Master Workman Lee shows
that he and his order have no sort OF re-
spect for the rights of the people The
unconscionabe sefshness of organized
labor could not be exhibited 10y any hostile
writer with half the force that powderly
and Lee present it in their correspond
ence. Out of o, 600 men in the employ of
this great corporation, Is We're dIscharg-
ed. and little more than one-fourth of
these were Knights Of Labor. Yet Lee,
who was discharged for insolence and neg
lect of duty,-and confirmed this state
ment of Vic,-President Webbs by
his own free testimony-at once imagined
that the country wanted to strike in order
to break up the organization. Powderly
took the cue from Lee, but he developed n
scheme to make the order formidable, and
advised secrecy, and the postponement of
''trouble" until Mr. Depew should return
from Europe. Remember he wrote,
that he is possible candidate for presi-
dency and will go to any lengths rather
than have strike on the road, for that
would injure his CHARGES irreparaby."
Meanwhile encourage assertions from the
service in squads at a time, if possible, so
rs to create feeling of uncasiness He
warns Lee that the strike that is mot won
in 10 days is lost, " that 1T is madness for
the men of New York Central to think of
striking This seems like sense, but the
general master workman goes on to say as
ws:-Ihe year 1892 will be presidential
yeal, 1898 the worlds fair, but the patience
of the workingmen will not hold out to
remain organized quietly while doing his
part to organize other parts so that they
will be as one man when these years come.
This reveals an intention to precipitate
general strike at time when it will
most embaIrass the railroads, but also
when it will iniure and outrage the peo-
pile of the whole country and visitors from
abroad. This is highly patriotic. 1t
would be beautiful exhibition Of the
United States to the world. And for what
reason? Not that any men are insufficient
ly paid, or are unjuSty burdened but
simply that membership Of the Knights Of
Labor cannot protect incompetent, insub-
ordinate or vicious persons.
