woman,s Psychic Faculties.

The worlds psychic congress, the
only one of the many at Chicago next
summer to place women on its advisory
council, is to have also special wom-
ans committee Of arrangements. Mrs.
Mary Bundy, of Chicago, is chairman of
this woman's committee. Women will
be able to assist greatly at the worlds
psychic congress. Their psychic facul-
ties are usually more highly developed
than those Of men, and they take more
interest in the subject.

The Power of tho Rivers.

The possibility Of utilizing the current
Of our rivers to furnish power on shore
has often been subject of speculation.
There are few minds which have not req

accrue from such an achievement il it
wore possible; but the majority, both
lay and expert, have been accustomed to
accept the difficulties presented by the
unreliability Of the flow, the variation of
the height OF the rivers and the slight
fall as practically insupcrable from the
enginecringpoin Of view.
An expert who refuses to be tied up
by precedent, however, declares his be-
lief that d csc difficulties can be over.
