The Herald has always labored zeal
ously and earnestly for the upbuild-
ing of Durango and the Southwest.
1t has done so single-handed. to n
very large extent The opposition
newspaper has never missed an oppor-
tunity to tear down and drive away
settlers and trade. 1t is, therefore,
with feeling of satisfaction that we
note the interest taken by many of
our business and professional men in
the Board of Trade. 1t is time there
was united action and the remarks
of Vice President Herr the other night
were timely, i. e., that every member
of the board should take an active in
terest and do his full duty in advanc-
ing the welfare of this community.
A newspaper can materially aid in the
work, but it is hard work single-hand-
ed. When it comes to working for
the general good of our people, town
and county, The Herald is willing at
all times to lay aside rivalry and per-
sonal feeling and work harmonious.

may differ as to the right way of
accomplishing some desired end, but
there should be no division on the
general principle of what should be

attend the Board of Trade meetings

or interrupts the writing only for test
questions or replies to queries from the
"other side"
Under these conditions there were
written large number OF incidents of
a specific and detailed character rep
resenting actual experiences of several
OF Professor HyslOp's near relatives.
In one instance there was a message
from some one claiming to be his broth
er Charles, who said that he had died
OF a fever. Asked what fever. the an
swer was scarlet fever. Professor
Hyslop had brother Charles who died
of scarlet fever in 1864 while a small
boy. His father Is reported TO have
given the names of all his children, liv-
ing and dead, and TO have told some
152 incidents In his life and that OF
others similar to the incident just men,
toned.
The most striking of these were all
the details OF a conversation between
father and son on the subject Of psy-
chical research held about year be-
fore the fathers death.
The last eight sittings held by Pro-
II y
cidents having the specific character
necessary for proving personal Identity.
They cannot be appreciated without
reading the report itself.
The first objections 10 the whole affair
which present themselves to the ordi-
nary person and scientific PhiliStine
alike are the triviality Of the incidents
and the apparently idiOtic mental con
dition of the Communications" But
Professor HyslOp has carefully provid-
ed reply to this objection. A part of
his report, occupying nearly hundred
pages, consists OF experiments that are
initiative OF the Piper sittings and con
sist of an arrangement that enabled
him TO send kilograms from one person
TO another, so that the latter was to
find out who was sending them merely
by the contents of the messages them
selves. The senders were mainly pro-
fessors or postgraduate students in Co
lumbia university, and the most strik-
Ing feature OF the incidents by which
they chose to identify themselves was
triyiality. In fact, the experiments
show rather conclusively that no Objec-
tion to the trivial character of the mes
sages can be- entertained, and this for
the reason that nothing else but such
incidents will prove identity.
Professor HyslOp also gives another
reason for the uniformly trivial nature
or the incidents. 1t is the abnormal
mental state in which discarnate spirits
ind themselves, at times at least while

lection they are, from the special ma
ture OF the case. the strongest part of
the argument.
In the conclusion Professor HyslOp
states definitely why he prefers the
spiritistic theory until the believer in
telepathy comes forward with scieIaific
evidence for the kind of telepathy
which he Is always assuming. He en-
deavors to show that the burden of
proof really lies on the telepathist and
not on the spritist at all. On this point
Professor HyslOp makes his challenge
TO science very clear. He refuses him
any standing in scientific court until
he can present definite and detailed
evidence for his telepathy, and then
svOws that his preference to spiritism
IS based upon his unwillingness TO build

Mrs. Piper Case.
special Correspondence of The Florida Star.
BOSTON. Oct. l5.-It is a direct chal
ienge for the skeptic and believer in
teiepathy to explain the phenomena of
the Piper ease without bestowing ar
least some respect upon the hypothesis
OF the existence Of spirits.
Professor Hyslop has written his re-
port with q view TO exhibiting two
main points-first, that all such phe.
nomena and their accompanying claims
depend wholly upon the conditions I'm.
der which they have been obtained.
and, secondly, that unless the personal
identity OF the alleged spirit can be
established the claims of spritism
must be abandoned

lowed by a lengthy summary for the
general reader who may not care to
wade through the more detailed record
OF the sittings embodied in the report

their order the discussion Of the
pothesis and difficulties and objections.
with short conclusion.
Professor Hyslop Insists that the
most important duty of the reader OF
reports on the Piper case is to know
that there Is no resemblance between
the manner of obtaining the facts and
such ''mediumistic" performances as
are done In the dark with cabinet trap
pings. He asserts that there are no
tIappings whatever in connection with
the Piper experiments. All is done In
open daylight. Mrs. Piper goes into an
unconscious state which the investi-
gators have been pleased to call a
