Tho ,IeanIng of Te1epathy.

Few people would be apt to under
stand what you meant il you talked to
them about .stelepathy." New sciences
spring up so rapidly nowadays that it Is
hard work to keep track of the new
words coined for them. Telepathy is re-
lated in meaning to telegraphy, IN that
it is n SORT of mental telegraphy, or feel
ing at a distance, being derived from the
Greek, pathos, feeling and tele, at dis
lance. 1t Is only new and more scien-
tific name, however, for what we COM
monty speak of as mind reading, though
not all mind reading is telepathy.
Richard Hodson, secretary of the So
ciety for Psychical Research, defines te-
lepathy as the ability of one mind to i'm
press or be impressed by another mind
otherwise than through the recognized
channels of sense, and cites some remark
able instances of mind reading and
thought transference investigated by the
society. These, he thinks, confirm the
conclusion that thought transference Is a
reality.-New York Commercial Adver-

Lamar's Long Hair.

There is young lady now prominent
in Washington society to whom as
little girl Lamar revealed one blood
curdling Renaissance. He was accus-
toned to visit her fathers house and
had often noticed her gazing curiously
at his hair, which he wore very long
and fat to the sides of his head. One
day he said to her: ''My dear, you look
as if you wanted to ask me something.
What is it,
eff you please, Mr.. Lamar" she an
swered, "why do you wear your hair
that way at the sides!' Lamar drew on
his most serious expression, and in low,
hoarse whisper between his lifted palms
he replied, Because, my dear, I-once
-a-fight-with-a- man-a and
--he-cut-of-my- For long
time afterward the little girl was struck
with n chill of horror every time she
looked at him, until one day in the
midst of 4 gesture he swung his hair
back far enough to assure her that his
head was supplied with its normal COM
plement of members. But she never, to
the day of his death, entirely got over
the effect made upon her by the pretend
ed dread secret.-Kate Fields Washing

LIE EVERLASTING GHOST.

A Phantom That Has Made Little Prog
ress In Thousands of Years.
We are asked TO believe in ghosts be-
cause In every age there have been ghost
stories. But would it not be more nat
ural to suppose that in every age the hui
man mind has been subject to aberra-
tions, and that some specific weakness or
irregularity of the mental constitution or
of the physical organ, the brain, on which
all thinking, so far as we are aware, de-
ponds, has probably given rise to this
particular class of Authorizations?
We cannot pretend as yet to know the
mind thoroughly in health and disease,
but this we do know, that there are thou
sands and millions of persons whose lives
are never intruded On by ghosts and
who know absolutely nothing of occult
phenomena. According to reverend
gentleman's figures, only one woman in
twelve and one man in ten has had any
occult" experiences. Now, what we
should like very much to have would be
a further analysis OF these figures show
ing the percentage Of fighty or other
wise Ill balanced minds among the Soc
cult" and the 'nonoccult' Gf we may so
apply the words) classes respectively.
Our own experience would lead Us to
believe that the proportion would be
vastly larger in the former class than in
the latter. Who has not known many
examples of the tremulous, nervous, ny
persensitive, wonder loving, historical
or semihysterical type of constitution
among the devotees of ghost lore? And
If such examples occur, as we believe
they must, to the mind of every one, Is
it not at least q probable inference that
"occultism' in its various phases has
something to do with that kind of mind?
The ghost may be very ancient, but we
do not believe in him the more. The
trouble about him is that he has made
no progress since the earliest times. In
fact, on the whole, he has fallen back.
We should not be disposed TO talk of the
'slevitation" of Elijah ourselves had not
the Rev. Mr. Haweis used the term be-
fore u.s. But if, following the reverend
gentleman's lead, we consider the proph-
cts alleged translation in that light,
surely it was a most successful feat in
"levitation,' and little ahead of any
thing the modern world can show.
And, speaking generally, the appari-
tons and visions and other spiritual OF
occult phenomena of ancient times had
more '.body" to them than those of our
own day. If therefore the ghost has
made no progress in the course of three
or four thousand years, If he is just as
uninstructive and inconseQuent phe-
nomenon now as he was when we first
encountered him, if not q little more so,
we may perhaps be pardoned for think
ing that he may be safely and fairly ig-
nored by people who have an average
amount of business to attend to.-Pop-
ular Science Monthly.

Greek Noses.

We learn that the nose of Socrates was
not Greek, but such as Greek artists
usually assigned to satyrs. Occasional
", as in a beautiful group of satyr
playing dice with nymph on bronze
mirror, they gave satyrs another kind OF
nose. The noses of the ladies in the
Tanagra terra Gotta are of all agreeable
orders of nose, not necessarily Greek.
The chances are that the Greeks varied
as much as we do in their noses, while
the tradition of their art preferred the
conventional straight nose. In the same
way the kind of Romans who had their
portraits done on coins and gems We're
just the sort of energetic, conquering
people who have Roman noses every
where, like William of Orange and the
Duke of lington.-London Saturday

From the Hanover Citizen of Tuesday we
take the following:
There is trouble at Sadler's Union Church,
in North Hopewell township. The ground
was presented to the congregation many years
ago by an old gentleman named Sadler. The
congregations now worship in the old church,
the Reformed and Lutheran. The Lutherans
would like to have new church. The Re-
formed vestry oppose this move, and claim
to own the ground as they are the Oldest con-
gregation. The feeling over the matter grew,
and when the Lutherans wanted to hold a
communion the other day they found that the
Reformed vestrymen had locked the doors
and barred the windows. The Lutherans had
a KEY made, however, and thus secured an
entrance. The matter is to be brought into
court.
Chas Wrede died on Monday from old age,
he being almost 90 years old. He was born in
Hildesheim, Hanover, Germany, Dec. Is,
1900. In his youth he left his native land on
account of the military service, turned his face
towards the new republic and located at
Gettysburg in about 1920. A few years later
he came to Hanover where he resided until
his death.
1t is now understood that George 7. Kerr,
of Taneytown, Nd, will take the place of F..
A. Ziegler, who recently resigned as agent
of the Frederick Division of the Pennsylvania
railroad, in this place. Mr.. Kerr will take
charge of the Office next Saturday

Vocal and instrumental concert.

The lovers of harmony enjoyed the concert
given at Odd Fellows Hall, Westminster, on
Friday evening, the sth instant, by the Get
tysburg, Pa College Glee. Banjo and Man
dolin Clubs. The program was rich in va
riety, while the encores that followed nearly
every selection, imposed an arduous task upon
the performers. They responded, however,
with great alacrity, and won, each time, a
higher place in the appreciation OF the audi
ence. One could not help thinking how
much superior is the position of the devotees
of music to that of the champions of football,
now the popular craze among students in
nearly all our colleges. One is refining and
elevating; the other coarse and brutalizing.
The young gentlemen from Gettysburg left
behind them reputation not only as skilled
musicians, but as gentlemen. that makes it
desirable that they should afford the citizens
of Westminster another opportunity to testify
their hearty appreciation. The students OF
Western Maryland College were present az
the entertainmentin force, and comphmented
the visitors by saluting them with the Getlys-
burg College yell. They then gave, with
emphasis, the yell of the Western Maryland,
and verify it cannot be said that they are in
the least deficient in lung power or vocitera'
ton. At the close of the program the visitors
returned the compliment of the Western
Marylanders at the beginning, by giving the
Gettysburg yell. Altogether the occasion was
most enjoyable one, and the wish was fire.
quenty expressed that such occasions night
be more frequent Our citizens appreciate
music. and will literally patronize that which
is good, as the full house attested on Friday
evening of last week. The McDonogh
Alumni Glee Club is the next in order, on
Thursday night, the 2lst. Let us prepare to
give them an Overlooking house. After the
concert the Gettysburg Club were rendered a
reception by Mr. and Mrs. Harry NJ. c. Cla-
baugh.
