the editorial-rooms of the Demokrat, in
curing for work. He was of good ad-
dress, spoke the German language as il he
might also write it we'll, but Mr.. Green
biatt could make no place for him.
Shortly after that said the editor yes
terday. "Blanther called on me again.
MS tlme he was accompanied by Theo-
oore Vogt, the organist, who lives in Ala
meda. Mr.. Vogt is an old acquaintance
and friend. He told me that Blanther had
come TO him with very strong letter of
accommodation from a mutual friend,
that the young man was in every way
worthy OF consideration. To Mr., Vogt
gave the same answer l had already given
Blanther, that my editorial staff had no
vacancies at present. However, I added
II could no anything for him within a

BLANTHER A THEOSOPHIST
Said to Have Been a Regular At

Machines

]. E. Blanther. the erstwhile friend OF

In theosophical ideas and principles.
For three months he had been a regular
attendant of the meetings of the two
societies which represent theosophy in
San Francisco, but his coming and going
were so thoroughly unobtrusive as not to
have warranted comment within the pre-
scrlbed circle but for the tragedy OF last
Fridy night, with which Blanther's name
is now so unpIeasantly associated.
At the meetings Blanther was generally
among the unobserved, but he made his
presence felt by addressing TO the presi-
dent, on the little slips of paper prepared
for that purpose, the most complex and in
some instances mystifving questions. Per-
sonally, however, Blanther was known to
but few of the mem bers
George Dodge attended several theoso-
phical lectures with Blanther, and on the
afternoon preceding the murder Friday
night the two held a long controversy over
the matter.
"Blanther came into my office Friday
afternoon about o'clock" said Dodge
last night, "and for two hours he talked
nothing but theosophy. l have attended
at least three of the meetings with him,
and he appeared to take deep interest in
the subject. l do not think, however,
that he was regular member of the
society.
For some months past Blanther has
taken great interest in hypnotism, and
claimed to be able to hypnotic himself.

yesterday as saying that the blood spots
on Blanther's nightshirt, discovered by
the police on Sunday, were not blood
spots at all, but were acid stains. The
spots, he says, were near the lower hem of
the shirt. The fact is the blood spots re-
ferred to are on the front near the collar,
and are newly made. His attention being
called to this Mr.. Dodge said: "Of course
have not seen the shirt since the murder,
and if it has any new markings since then
l do not know about them"
81 have seen a statement to the effec,
that if Blanther was a bicycle rider be
might get away that way. He never rode
bicycle. He was an expert horseman,
having been a hussar in the Austrian
army. He used to go out to a riding
school near the park, and there made the
acquaintance of a number of ladies. He
was disposed to be great lady's man.
'He was uery well read generally and a
student of and believer in theosophy and
Buddhism. He attended the meetings OF
