PARIS MAD OVER SPIRITS.
But the Spooks are Poverty-Strfcke
and Not AYerSe to ASKING Iu.

But the Spooks are MISREPRESENTATION
and Not Averse to Asking Aims.
The Partisan public dearly loves new
sensation, and since the exposure of a
New York spiritualistic medium few
weeks ago in the French Capital, the
skeptIcal mondaines OF that city have
been amusing themselves by visiting
those who claim 10 be on intimate terms
with the inhabitants of the other world.
One Investigator tells the following story
in a recent Paris paper OF his visit to
well-known spook priestess living in the
Rue Naugirard:
My Aunt Coromandel died some
months ago, and the other day strong
desire seized me to see the dear ladv
again. In response to my inquiries l was
directed TO the famous medium, Nine.
Amedee.
ION entering the house the medium
herself received me. She was verv stout
and had an enormous hooked nose She
frst commanded me to write in book
which she produced my full name and
those of my fat.-er and mother. | was
then taken into large room hung in
black, where Mime. Amedee asked for
some information regarding my poor
Aunt CoromandeL Was no. her b air
black and did she not wear it in b an
beaux? When l could control my enc
tions l replied that her hair had been
white ever since L had known her. AS
soon as these particulars W ere obtained
the spirits doubtless took possession of
the medium, for she glanced wildly
around her and seemed about to faint,
She made me sit down by a little table:
the light suddenly went out and someone
bound my arms, leaving the right one
little treer than the other.
1.-TWO or three minutes slipped by:
then | heard low sobs, and sonetbinG
white showed itself i'll the cOrner oF tho
room. y luminous form gradually out
lined itself, until, some steps from me,
distinguished a stout woman with nose
like an eagles beak, her white hair ar
ranged in the fashion of fifty years ago.
She greeted me with: Good day, dear
child chanting TIE words in a thin,
sharp voice.
Il thought then that if the stout lady
was Aunt Coromandel her sojourn in
the spirit land had changed her greatly,
modifying by its melancholy Influences
even the shape of her nose which of old
had been a decided pug, and now had
become an imperial Roman.
Il then began commonplace CONVEX
sation with my aunps shade, and asked
if she were pleased with the other world,
She replied, that, on the whole. she had
little TO complain of excapt that she was
continually annoyed by lack of money,
and asked me to lend her l25 francs, re-
questing that l deposit it upon the little
table beside me. l then understood why
my right arm had been lett comparatively
free.
Il acceded to her demand. and the
phantom, speaking some indistinct
words, seemed to vanish through the wall
When the light was suddenly turned up

An Archbishop Tells Why Catholics

An Archbishop Tells Why Catholics
Should Obey the Pope's Decree.
CINCINNATI (O.), Jan. 10.-Archbishop
Elder to-day promulgated the order
against the Odd Fellows, Knights of
Pythias and Sons of Temperance, and ac-
companied the text of the order with a
statement of reasons why good Catholics
should obey. The fact that the reasons
for the order are not understood, he says,
is no excuse for disobedience, any more
than 1t is for the violation OF civil law
when the reason for the enactment is not
understood. Just as the State must en-
force It's laws for the preservation of or
der. so must the church enforce such rules
as are essential for the welfare OF souls.
he went on, however, to state some of
the reasons in this case. One was that to
belong to these orders made Catholics
more tolerant of Free Masonry, which
had long been declared inimical to the
church. Another was that in the case of
the Knights OF Pythias pagan is selected
to be treated as a saint.

SWlNDLING SCHEME.

Attempt to EXtort Money From an
Aid Association.
CINCINNATI, Jan. l1.-City Prosecutor
Nippert, Secretary of the Masonic Mu-
tual Aid Association OF this district, has
discovered a gigantic scheme to swindle
branch bodies of the association all over
the country. The association has head
quarters in New York. A few days ago
Mr.. Nippert received a letter from man
who signed his name as Buck. 1t as
dated at New York and said the associa-
ton would like to have the local official
send on ms assessment for the year at
once. The letter said also that the head
quarters OF the association had been
moved to another street and asked that
the remittance be sent TO the new address.
This letter struck Mr.. Nippert as rather
peculiar, because the local association
owes no assessments TO the Grand Secre-
tary OF the association. 4 reply TO a let
ter OF inquiry said that the demand for
money was a forgery and the writers
were SWiQGIers

straits, and begged me to leave 125 francs
for him upon the little table. He asked

When Nine. Amedee reappeared l
thanked her, freed myself of my bonds,
and was about to take leave when she
again became strangely troubled. An

a few days since a western Republic
an of national prominence disclosed tho
programme of tho silver men in nil it's
