Light Gn n Dark Mystery.
CINE Boston Post.)

There is an organization in Boston
known as the Society Of Psychical Re
search. The other evening, at one Of the
meetings, a certain person, said TO
possess remarkable occult powers, yolun-
teered to give an exhibition. which offer
was gladly accepted by the society The
professor" was woman. slightly built,
with pallid cheeks, and dark, raven hair.
One of the members, while not particu-
larly skeptical. thought he would try a
little experiment on his own account. so,
before going to the meeting, he provided
himself with some pieces of phospho-
rescent-paper, that In the dark lit up
like glow-worm. his he tore into small
pieces, and, just before the lights We're
exungulshed, contriyed TO place three or
four bits of the paper on the professors"
head Then he sat down and waited.
When the room was dark, the 'Drofes-
sor's" Uranium emitted a pale light, visi-
BILE to every one in the room but the
professor herself. In a few minutes
the phenomena began, but, strange to
relate, when a tamDOurine in one corner
of the room began TO sound, the illumi-
mated was there, also. and the moving
about OF the operator could be easily
traced, The suppr ssed mrth told the
professor" something was wrong. and
when the light was turned on and the
paper discovered the remarks made were
far from spiritual. There we're no more
manifestations that night

. MISSISSIPPI VALLEY MOUNDS.
Facts in Favor Of the Theory That
the Indians BuiIt Them.
Uyening POst.)


For a hundred years and more the
origin OF the mounds in the Mississippi
Valley has been subject or debate, and
various theories have been brought for
ward at different times by way of ac-
counting for them. Thus. for instance, we
are told by one class Of writers that they
were built by the Toltocs; others ascribe
them to the Aztecs, the Pueblos, etc, etc. /:
and, then, again. there are those who as
sert that they were the work Of mys-
ferrous people who once dwelt in the
Mississippi Valley, but who are now ex-
tinct. Differ as these theories do in GER
tain particulars. they may all be classed
under one head IN so far as tbey are
based upon the assumption. that these
remains (snd under this term We include
the earthworks Of every sort, size, and de-
scription) indicate a phase Of civilization
10 which. in point OF artistic, religious, ana
political development, the Indian is said
to have been unequal
From this extreme view there has al
ways been more or less dissent. though
IL is but fair to say that since the publ
cation by the Smithsonian Institution, in
lS4S, of "The Ancient Monuments of the
Mississippi Valley Squier's theory as TO
the superior civilization OF the mound
builders and the low condition of the mod
ern Indians. together with its corollary
as to the origin of these monuments,
has been accepted by a large majority
of those who have written upon the
subject Indeed, so comprehensive Is his
statement and so clear and compact his
reasoning, that, In spite of numerous
errors OF detail for which he was not al
ways responsible. TO say nothing of his
adoption OF a system Of nomenclature.
which not only was erroneous In Itself.
but has been a prolific source OF error
In others, his book is still the great
storehouse from which the advocates or
the mound-builder theory draw their ar
glments But, while we yield TO no one
n our appreciation OF Squiers great work.
II Is well TO remember that he subse-
ouently so far modified his views as 10
admit that "the earthworks Of Western
New York were erected by the IroQuois,
or their western neighbors'; and that, al
though ne never changed his opinion in
regard 10 the origin Of the so-called
sacred enclosures" etc, OF Southern
Ohio and elsewhere, yet, even upon this
point, his conclusion has been successfully
questioned by a school OF ethnologists
do not find in the mounds. or in any
thing that has been taken from them, any
indication Of a higher degree OF civiliza-
ton than the Indians Of the Mississippi
Valley. such as they were when the
whites first came In contact with them,
are known to have reached.

What Helmholt1 Did.
(Scribner's NagaZine)

To appreciate his many-sidedness' We
have but TO follow the development or
his life. While his first work was main
Iy mathematical, his second was in quite
a different field. IL consisted In tne
measurement of the velocity Of propaga-
ton Of sensation by the nerves To ac-
complsh this he must needs have been
an anatomist, too.
His labors in the line Of psychological
optics show that he was also master OF
psychology.
But perhaps 1t il by his achievements
m the realms of music that he - best
known and most celebrated. In ms DOCK
THE Sensations OF Tone" be solved com
pletely the riddle Of nature which mao
puzzled the world since the time or
Pythagoras Thus, to give rational
numerical explanation OF the intricacies
OF harmony and their effect on the ear
there was need not only OF a mathema-
tlclan. an anatomist, physicist, and
psychologist. but also Of a musician ali
united in one man. Helmholtz was all
this, and even more.

A THEORY REJECTED.

This. in effect. was the shape In which
the problem presented Itself TO lhoihds'
and In solving 1t he adopted the com
narrative method-the only one which has
thus far given positive results. Thus, lor
example, instead Of INDUCING In idle uis'
auisitiOns about the civilization OF the
Aztecs or the Puebios, neither OF Whoh
can be shown TO have ever heid lOo'
of the region in which these mounds aI-
found. he began his investigation with
the Indians who were in possession OF the
valley when il was first visited by the
whites. and Instituted a comparison Tor
the purpose of determining how far, IN
their arts and Industries, manners anu
customs as revealed in their implements
and ornaments, or described In the early
records they surpassed or fell short OF
what we have termed the mound-builder
standard. 1t was a crucial test, ana de-
monstrated beyond the possibility OF
doubt that these two peoples, admitting
that they belonged to different races
had attained to about the same stage
az DEVELOPMENT. In fact, as has been
said elsewhere the two classes OF re
mains agree in every essential particular
not a single specimen having been taken
from the mounds which the indian could
not have made, or might not nave DOuSh'
from his neighbors in Mexico or on the
Atlantic coast, with both of whom he
carried on more or less traffic. lmpor
tant as this agreement IS as a link IN
the chain of evidence that points to tht
Identity of the Indians with the mound
builders, it is strengthened by the facl
that the Indians are known to nav,
built both mounds and earthworks; ana
when we add that they are the only
people, except the whites, who. so fai
as we know, ever occupied the region
In which these remains are found. 1t Will
be seen that there is ample ground for the
conclusion that the mounds and encio
sures of the Mississippi Valley, of every
sort. size. and description, were the work
OF these lame Indians, or OF their I'M
mediate ancestors" All other differences
are denied US until II can be shown that
at some time in the past there lived III
this valley a people other than the In
dian, who Clipped flint, woye cloth, ham
mered metals worked In stone bone and
shell: manufactured pottery. built
mounds and earthworks, and did all the
other things that the mound-builder Is
known to Lave done.

st James Gazsttel


The wind Is hushed; the darkness grows,
The fainting moon u lost in flight,
Death lifts sOmbre hand, and throws
His clouds across the face Of night.
With parted lips and haggard stare,
That strives and strains 10 pierce the
gloom.
Each nation crouches I'm its lair,
And, breathless- waits the coming doom.
Dim shapeless shadows pass Ike ghosts;
Along the trembling earth they feel
The distant tramp OF marching hosts.
And hear the smothered clash of steel;
TIL, reaching out for friendly hands
To guide them through the gloom they
press
To where one silent figure stands
Serene in lofty loneliness.
They huri their taunts, their oaths, their
prayers,
The snarl of greed, the growl OF hate;
They spit upon the cloak she wears,
Or grasp its hem 10 supplicatc.
But still as though she heard them not.
Her anxious eyes are fixed afar
Among the clouds, on one pale spot,
Where family CLEANS d single star.
By that same star she chose her path
For every night, In vanished years;
Though screened by mists OF doubt and
wrath,
She sees II sull. as though through tears.
Then, glancing AT the fretful horde
Who call her now TO bend the knee.
She lays her hand upon her sword,
And turns her eyes towards the sea.
