ILLUSTRATION remarking on the
number of telephones in service in the
United States, deplores the lack Of
readiness to employ these instruments
in Europe. In Berlin, where there are
10000 in use, the average number OF
calls is not more than seven day
two in the morning and three or four
in the afternoon. Among the European
countries, Germany and England hold
the lead, with 100000 and 10000 in
struments, respectively. In, France
there are scarcely more than $4,000;
while there are $4,000 in Sweden, $4,000
in Scotland and 10000 in Switzerland.
There are 100000 in use in the United
States.
There are now 161 high schools on
the accredited list Of the University
Of Illinois. A large number OF these
are to be re-examined this year, and
the high school visitor Is crowded
with work as never before. Schools
are being accredited for whatever work
is we'll done. There has thus been
added the work Of considering the
claims of high school graduates 10 az
yanced standing. There are many
high schools in the state that do more
work than that required for admis-
sion to the university, and the univer-
atty Is anxious to recognize that fact
and to encourage as much as possible
such advanced work in the high
schools. The university Is careful also
not to constrain small high schools
to undertake more than can be well ac-
complished, and hence would prefer tc
accredit q small high school with less
than the amount required for admis'
sion to the university than with the
full amount less thoroughly done
While stimulating every high schoo
to do all that 1t ought to do, the uni
versity at the same time desires thai
the high school shall work out its Owl
problem spontaneously rather than b.
constrained to external standards.

THEocoPHY's VIEW OF THE MOOSE.
1t Makes Bad Man More Dangerous by
Giving Him an Astral Body.
lFrom the Syracuse Courier.l

Mrs. E. K Mundy talked to the Theosoph-
cal Society last evening on "Theosophy and
Capital Punishment She said in part:
81 wish to consider the subject from a
purely Theosophical standpoint, for while
there are many who desire its adjustment,
their reasons are different, although per-
haps good, when taken from their stand
point. Theosophy draws its conclusions
from a knowledge of man as he really is.
To a thoughtful person there must be some
cause other than the depravity of man for
this seeming reckless destruction of life
which is not confined to people OF expert
ence, but to young persons and even chill
dren
stTheosophy considers man as a complete
being, made up of seven principles, three
constituting his higher or immortal nature,
called the individuality, and four copstitut-
ing his lower nature OF personality. In a
perfectly constituted nature these seven
principles work together in harmony, the
lower nature drawing its inspiration from
the higher or spiritual, the brain being the
instrument the mind uses to inform the
personality seeking to attract the desires
toward the higher nature-but men use the
mind in a perverted manner-and being per-
verted the soul cannot manifest properly.
when a man becomes slave to the prin-
ciples of his physical desires what can you
expect but crime in some form or another?
The further he has removed his lower ma
sture from the call OF his higher or real SELF
he yields more and more to the dictates of
his lower and animal nature, which is all
the more powerful, having perverted mind
to aid him.
''Now, what happens when spch man
kills OF 10 killed instead of having destroyed
the man by placing him where he can do
no harm? He has simply changed the con-
dition of the physical body-thrown the
passions and desires into The astral plane,
where they coalesce with the astral body of
the man, forming body more potent for
ev il than when bound to the physical body,
for it seeks to return to earth life, through
weak minded persons. who, ignorant of the
cause, are led to commit crimes which 9TH
erwise they could not have done.
''Then, too, these persons having placed
themselves SO, far from their higher nature
reincarnase almost immediately and being
filed with hatred and revenge produce the
horrible crimes which continually confront
us in the papers, Then, too, the man who
executes the sentence of the law takes upon
himself the cause and effect of sending life
sout of personality, and as this law is the
stern law of Justice he who kills will also
be killed. You cannot destroy OF do away
with life. You only change its conditions
or form through which it manifests, and as
I.said, man deprived of his physical body,
becomes, evil, a greater instrument for
evil, andsff good, the same is true in the
sotf1er way.
"By Iaaeing,a criminal under proper con-
d1tfons he may be led to restore the rela-
tons between the higher, and lower self,
and so live wisely, but by putting him out
of the physical body you make such acourse.

for yearq Where is she? What is she?''
'tLarby bring her here said the Mahou.
Larby went off hurriedly.
The Mahdi looked steadfastly at the Ber'
Der for q moment. Then he said, "Otba, a
year ago you pursued me to Stay me. Lis
ten! In your mothers tent there was a boy,
a stranger a son of Fee. His own mother
WAS dead. He was weakling, he was sent
up into the mountains and your good moth
er nursed him. But she had q son of heI
own, O. babe. and it was the light of her life.
One day there was war in the pashalic,
your mother fed to the help of her husband,
and fell beside him. She had left her child
asleep in the tent, and a boar came down
from the hills. The child's arm was in its
bloody jaws, and only the boy there to fight
it. But he slew it, though its claws tore the
flesh from his forehead, and the life of the
babe was saved. Otba, you were that babe,
and WAS that boy. Look at your arm
above the elbow-your right arm. Does nc
mark remain?"
Otba drew up his sleeve and showed a red
scar on his arm. At the same moment the
Mahdi lifted his hair and showed scar on
his forehead. s'And now look here
There was silence for a moment. Then
Otba said in breaking voice, 'Often as
have seen the scar, never before have
known the cause of it.''
And then Larby came back leading Asma.
She looked pe1pleXed and ashamed with SO
many eyes upon her.
s'Asma," said the Mahdi, stsee, your father
has come to fetch you. He thinks have
kept you this long in Tadla by force of a
false alliance. No wolds would efface that
evil thought, but you are free to follow him.
So go, and God go with you both.''
But master said Asma, with look
of disnay
''I'll go alone" said Otba.
"Eather--'' cried Asma.
ssstay where you are, child; I've been in
the wrong.
''Otba, said the Mahdi, ''awhile ago you
told me not to fear you 1 do not tear you,
I trust YOU could imprison you. / could
put you to death. You have heard my Sc
cret, that 1 mean to march back on Fee.
Now take your fieetest horse; go by your
steepest passes. Farewell.
Otba dropped to his knees. ''Mahdi, for
give me, he cried, 81 am your slave for
ever
The people raised great shout, "Praise
be to God.'
Otba rose to his feet with an altered face.
81 will not betray you,' he said, ''but
will lead you into Fee. Give me five hun
dred men, clad like Berbers, and 1 will fly
towards the city crying The Mahdi is pur-
