THE new editor and nominal
proprietor of the San Francisco Call
has treated his friends and acquaint-
ances here TO a chilling surprise.
Up to the time of taking charge Of
the city" journal, Mr.. Shortridge
was at the helm Of the San Jose
Mercury. The latter was always in
favor of Hawaiian annexation.
That was an important part of its
political policy, and it frequently
said pleasant things about this
country. The editor had visited
the Islands and had a vivid and
very friendly recollection of them.
That on account of being
promoted in the business and
taking up a residence at the metro
polls, Mr.. Shortriige has really
experienced a change of heart
seems incredible. The fact is,
however, that the Call, under its
new management, goes out of its
way to misrepresent Hawaii. 1t
tells its readers almost daily that
the government here is little less
than anarchy, that live and proper
ty are ever in danger and that al
together one had best keep away
from the Islands. The CalPS course
is along the line of discouraging
tourists and investors who think of
the islands. Some of the friends
and acquaintance of Mr.. Short
ridge have written to him for an
explanation of his sudden and
violent change of front. One OF
these local correspondents has from
Mr.. Shortridge, THE STAR under
stands, letter in which be more
than intimated that under his con-
troll the Call would exert itself
in behalf of Hawaii.

TRANSPARENCY or THOUGHT.
Telepathy Opens Great Field For Inve

Telepathy Opens Great Field For Inves-
tigation by Metaphysicisns.
No field of investigation 50 pregnant
with interest has been as timioly 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.
Telepathy means the transference of
thought, feelings, sensations, ETC., from
one person to another by some means
other than the recognized sense percep-
lions 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 'percipieIt
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
Psycbioal 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
came delirious. She saw her husband
| lying dead in the middle of 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-

This is the sentiment of quite anumber in
