Never since the First congress could that
hackneyed phrase be SO aptly applied,
and even the First congress had a much
larger proportion Of men we'll known

the Fifty-fourth The transformation
from the Fifty-third is startling, and
even the Fifty first, the last Republican
congress, is but slightly represented.

Through all the years from 1862 to 1882,
from the first antipolygamy law to the

no field Of investigation so pregnant
with interest has been as timidly aban-
doned TO charlatans as the domain of
telepathy. Until very recent times it
has been almost entirely in the custody
of mountebanks. empires of the worst
type, whose claims to consideration
rested on cunning. shrewdness and lack
of scruple If we pause to consider that
| the phenomenon of thought transference
both in the waking and sleeping condi-
ton was the initial inspiration that
evolved the science of metaphysics. we
may more nearly appreciate how fool
| ishly workers in the higher spheres OF
thought have relinquished the keystone
of psychology to the most blatant types
of quackery.
Telepatby means the transference OF
thought, feelings, sensations, etc, from
one person TO another by some means
other than the recognized sense percep-
tions of the recipient. 1t is the commu-
nication between mind and mind other
wise than through the known channels
of the senses.
The first notable fact in conjunction
with this class of cases is that we inva-
riably find keen, sympathetic bond be-
tween the .'agent" and "percipient"
that is either the result Of blood ties, as
in the case Of relatives and between hus-
band and wife, or it is cultivated inter-
course, as between friends, or is the
outcome OF joint aspiration found
among those who seek common goal.
That this thought transference has
taken place between persons in close
sympathy with each other is an admit
ted fact. The following case is selected
from the researches Of the Society For
Psychical Research, they having verified
the embodied facts:
MRS Kenon Bruce started from Eng
land to America to join her husband in
Nebraska On board ship shortly after
it left Queenstown she fell i'll and be-
came delirious She saw her husband
lying dead in the middle of a field, and
her agony was excessive. On arriving
in New York she received a telegram
stating that Mr. Bruce was thrown from
horse and had broken his neck, and
this occurred at the very hour when she,
thousands of miles away on board ship,
said she saw him lying dead in the field,
as, in fact, he was at the time"
In this case the elements of collision
and muscle reading are certainly elimi-
mated. Travels of Thought" in Bos-

While using these she had a second fan,

"DurinR the air months the use OF the
plaster-of-paris bandage was continued,
It was renewed three or four times. The
