UNCONSCIOUS VENTRILOQUiSM.
| YOUTHFUL AFRO-AMERICAN WHO
HAS PUT HIS NEIGHBORS IN
CONSERVATION.

A remarkable case of natural and
unconscious ventriloquism-a phenom-
enon which scientific men believe was
responsible for the most of the cases
in which persons were supposed to be
possessed of devils-has caused much
CONSERVATION among the supersti
tious, and great interest among the
scientific in Orangeburg, S. G. The
history of the case is told by William
L. Burnley, of Clafln University,
Orangeburg, in the appeal"
The phenomenon appears in a thir-
teen year old colored boy, the son of a
poor and illiterate parents. He was
taken i'll about month ago with VIC
lent pains in his stomach. The doc,
tor was called and treated him for
week OF more, but the boy grew no
better. After he had been i'll about
nine days his parents began to hear
strange noises apparently in his stom-
ach. They were inarticulate and
faint at first, but daily grew stronger.
They described them as like the crow
ing of cock, the barking of dog,
and loving of cow, In few days
Ineligible sounds, expressions in hui
man speech we're heard. A voice
sounding as though from the boys
stomach said: ooh, Lord, | want to
get out. I'm so tired. I'm hungry
and you hurt me-" The doctor was
puzzled and related the circumstances
to other doctors. The people in the
village became much excited over the
phenomenon, and the boys home was
thronged daily with curious visitors.
The voice would answer questions put
to it. The boy averred that he could
not control the voice, and that it was
in effect thing apart from his own
consciousness. The voice said his
name was Josephine. All manner of
questions on religious and personal
topics were asked, and the answers
were taken as having a supernatural
Importance.
The doctor thought it couldn't be a
case of ventriloquism because the boy
seemed really unable to control the
voice, and the sounds came without
his violation. The boys parents as
serted that the voice prophesiged and
foretold all manner of things that
came to pass. More than one super
stitious person went to bed and doe
tered himself because the uncanny
voice had predicted directly or indi-
rectly his deaf, Mr.. Bulky visited
the boy and gives this account of his
1,;th l.
81 visited the boys home and asked
him to give me his name. He did so
(from his mouth). / then said, Talk
from your stomach He replied Il
can't. Well then, make Josephine
talk And he to my great astonish-
ment, said Talk Josephine The
voice said 1 wont do it, Don't you
want some candy mol don't Thus
kept up a fusilade of questions to
notice the effects. The response al
ways came in a decidedly different
voice from his. But the remarkable
feature is that be makes so many abso-
lutely distinct tones in his stomach or
bottom of his chest, without the least
movement of the face or lips. HIS
throat however moves, l put my hand
