LUTHFR r. MARSH DEAD.
Noted spiritualist and Friend OF
Odelia Diss de Bar.

Middetown, n. Y, Aug. l5.-Luther
K. Marsh widely noted as a Spiritual
list, died at home here today after an
illness OF several weeks. He was SO
years old. Some days ago MIR. Marsh
summoned Justice Bartlett Of the
court Of appeals to his bedside and 1t
is believed made final disposition OF
his great library and picture gallery.
For many years Mr.. Marsh, whose
tastes were more for literature than
the law, was a diligent student OF the
writings of Emanuel Swedenborg, and
ne was led TO undertake the investiga-
ton Of the phenomena Of Spirtualism.
In 1888 Mr.. Marsh became acquainted
with Mrs. Ann Odelia Diss de Bar,
through her alleged spirit pictures, and
her influence over him became so great
that he was induced to make over
property In New York to her for a
nominal consideration. Notwithstand-
ing the exposure of her methods, Mr..
Marsh continued his faith in her al
legged portraits OF Bible characters, and
In Spirltualism.

Fairs Death Causes Paris Club to
Discuss Them
SC0RCHING Is CONDEMNED
Owners Of Machines should be I'm
pressed with Great Danger OF Out
bursts Of Fuii speed

New York, Aug lG,-The cause Of the
automobile accident in which Mr. and
Mrs, Charles Fair were killed and also
Of other motor accidents is topic OF
discussion among the members OF the
Automobile club Of Paris says the
Tribune correspondent The uaani-
nous opinion is that The members OF
the recognized clubs and owners Of
automobiles should be impressed with
the terrible risk they run In INDUCING
in outbursts Of high speed even on the
long, broad and perfect roads Of Nor
mandy There Is the deepest sympathy
felt for Mr., and Mrs Charles Fair and
II is admitted that almost every auto
mobile car on the fayorite road between
Nantes and EVreuX. which rs as smooth
az billiard table let's out at fun speed.
II is also noted that IN the last fort
night at Trouville and Dieppe and AK
les Balns, there has been 4 great deal
too much auto-sCoTching. usually by
new and young owners OF motor cars.
one Of the offenders m this respect IS
Tod Sloan, the American, who Is re-
ported as going at q maximum speed
through the Norman villages near
Trouylle, Pont Leyeque and Cabourge.
The road from Eyreux to Pacy-sur-
Eure, IL beautifully macadami2ed and
is in perfect condition The spot where
the accident occurred exactly In front
Of the gates Of Chateau de Mai. is on a
moderate descending grade. Four
miles TO the west Of Pacy the road is
slightly winding TO make the descent TO
the river Eure more gradual There
are double rows OF fine elm trees be-
side the route and on each side of the
road there are cutters about a yard
wide, paved with large, rough stones.
II was doubtless one OF these rough
stones that pierced the front tire, which
was the immediate cause Of the acct
dent.

the railroad, throwing stones at him,
the nightwatchman Of the washery,
named Flynn. tried to rescue the man.
The Waterman was thrown into a creek
by those leading the chase. The
crowd kept after the workman and he
ran to the Reading railroad station,
where a company of Infantry was on
provost duty.
The company was Immediately called
into formation and attempted TO hold
the crowd back. The mob caused q large
crowd to gather from all directions and
word was sent TO the camp for REIN
forcements. In nine minutes the en-
tire Twelfth regiment and battalion
Of the Eighth were on the scene. The
crowd was quickly scattered and three
men who were alleged 10 have been
participants In the assault on the
Waterman and the workman were ar
rested and taken TO the town lookup
The affair created intense excitement
in the town, but all is now quiet.
The three men who were arrested
were later given hearing and held In
