OS ANGELES, CAL, May 1.-The
formal opening of the club wo-
mems convention this afternoon
was markedly brilliant. Hundreds of
delegates and visitors packed the simp-
son auditorium to the roof The In
terror was embellished with $4,000 Gala
lilies. and representative American
women sat on the platform, while the
usual happy greetings were exchanged
by hostesses and guests.
The opening day was otherwise dis
tinguished by two secret events which
might have developed into sensations
had they reached the convention. One
which got as far as the board Of direc-
tors. had to do with the turning down
Of a delegate from a secret society
The other, which concerned the posi-
bic unseating of Mrs. Maggie Shipp
Roberts of Salt Lake city. wife Of the
former con gressulan from Utah, in the
event she should try to appear as a
delegate, was squelched in its native
state.
The first affair which affects a ma
tional organization of 5000 members,
came up before the board of directors
in the morning at its secret session.
Controversy About Mrs. Mcmahon.
Mrs. c. H. Mcmahon Of Salt Lake
City, it seems, had been appointed del
egate from the P. Z. o. chapter in that
city, which had applied for admission
TO the general federation, and she had
received her credentials. But at the
last minute, Mrs. DenisOn. as a mem
Der of the membership committee. dis
covered that members of secret So
cieties were not admissible, and so no
titled the delegates. Today before the
board she acknowledged her error, and
Mrs. Mcmahon, instead Of pushing her
claims. withdrew amicably on two
conditions One was that the member
ship committee shoulder the mistake
and she be seated in the convention,
Notwithstanding a vote was denied her.
The Roberts matter has been simmer
ing ever since Mrs. Roberts said she,
as president Of the Authors club in
Salt Lake City. would be a delegate
to the convention by virtue Of her Of
fee. Mrs. Roberts changed her mind
before an underlying current Of pro-
test came to the surface and stayed at
home. II is understood, however, that
a prominent eastern woman had been
importuned by Utah women to lead
the fight in the event Mrs. Roberts un-
dertook to push her rights.
In the meantime the real skeleton
the eolored question, will make a warm
enough time in the course Of cOnven-
ton events The TumOr started
in California that Mrs. Ruffin intended
to come to Los Angeles impelled Mrs.
Anna D. West, one Of the leaders in
to seek a denial through
the Associated Press.

RAILWAY FINED FOR CRUELTY
Santa Fe Assessed For Failing to Care
For Cattle.

For Cattle.
Chicago, May Judgment for 800
has been awarded against the Atchi-
son, Topeka 6, Santa Fe Railroad COM
pany in the United States circuit court
here on proof by the government that
the road had carried cattle for 10S
hours without food or water.
The law requires that no railroad
company shall carry cattle longer than
twenty eight hours without rest. food
and drink, and that if the journey is
longer than twenty-eight hours, the
cattle snail be cared for every five
hours thereafter.
The action in this case grew out of
the shipment of export cattle from
Kansas City, Kan, to WATERFOWL,
Mass. As this was a first offense
proved against the company. the mini
mum fine was imposed. A similar case
is pending against the Indiana, Illinois

These seem to be prosperous days for
art institutions in the United States,
even though artists themselves often get
what seems an inadequate return tor
their efforts, "little more than the crumbs
that fall from the table," as the editor OF
one of our art journals says. The recent
five milion.dollar bequest places the Met
ropolitan Museum among the most in
fluential art institutions of the world.
The Art Museum of Boston is building a
new milion.dollar home, having out
grown the old building, and Mr.. Carnegie
has given two million dollars to the art
fund of the Pittsburg Institute, beside
handsomely endowing the newly created
Technical School. Mr.. Albright's beau.
tiful art gallery, gilt to the city OF But
falo, is nearing completion. From vari
Gus cities all over the land come reports
of the doings OF art societies, showing
that some interest is being awakened in
matters pertaining to art.

There is large number of professional
"bee hunters" in the west and southwest
of Texas. Small caves and dark recesses
formed by shelving rocks abound along
the waterways of the Texan rivers.
They are the natural hives of the wild

tree trunks of the forest regions of the
northern country. These caves are used
wear after year by the bees, and in many
instances they have been found to be lit

Psychfsts Experimenting With
New Wireless TeIegraphy.
Especial Correspondence

New Wireless TeIegraphy.
Especial Correspondence
Washington, Aug. 3. With the in.
yention of wireless telegraphy psy-
chists have been spurred to renewed
efforts to demonstrate the feasibility of
telepathy, the .transference of thought
from the mind of one person to the
mind of another simply by the will Of
the thinker. The possibilities of telepa-
thy have been advocated by no less
straitlaced a scientist than Sir Viii.
liam Crookes, the inventor Of the radi.
ometer and the x ray tube, and, ac
cording to the claims Of experimentera
in this city, results have recently been
obtained that have far surpassed their
fondest hopes.
The experimenters, who are mem
bers of the Society For Psychical Re-
search and are therefore entitled to a
hearing, admit that they are making
use of an apparatus in their work, but
St. Johnsbury Caledonian. [volume] (St. Johnsbury, Vt.) 1867-1919, 1902-08-13

this is designed merely as mechanical
device to aid the operator in concen-
trating his mind on the word or SEN
tence to be transmitted to the receiving
agent. The apparatus used consists of
a stereopticon lantern for projecting
light, an easel supporting blackboard,
disks of pasteboard marked with the
messages to be sent and conical tube
through which the operator gazes in
tently at the disk on the blackboard.
All these are arranged in room that
has been completely darkened, and the
stereopticon is adjusted SO that it will
cast light exactly covering the out
line of the disk and making the disk
the only object visible in the room.
The operator sits perfectly still and
thinks of nothing but the message on
the disk
In another dark room sits the re-
ceiver with eyes bandaged to exclude
the light that might creep into the
room through door or window cracks.
The mind of the receiver must be alb
solutely passive-a vacuum, so to
speak. According to reports from peo-
pie who have taken part in these ex-
periments, the message from the opera
tor is received in the following man
ner:
While allowing his mind to remain
passive the agent begins to see wavy
clouds, followed by pale blush light,
bright in the center. Gradually the fig
ures on the disk appear in larger lumi-
nous form, lasting only moment, but
reappearing several times.
1t is declared that in experiments
where messages have been transmitted
over distance exceeding 200 miles not
only the actual messages, but stray
thoughts in the mind of the operator,
have been flashed to that of the receiv-
| ing agent. 1t is further asserted that
on some occasions sentences thus sent
spoken in the room where the receiver
passively sits.
An instructive experiment that may
be conducted as a drawing room
amusement is the reading of the de-
| 81 dc hnI1 h
the transmitting agent. 1t is possible
for the receiver, who should be blind
folded and sit back to back with the
operator, to distinguish accurately
cards selected from a pack. Both par
ties must concentrate their whole at
tention on a card chosen for the expert
ment, noting the design, color and de-
nomination. If the operator does not do
this, he cannot expect to convey def
mite image to the mind Of the receiver.
Frequently both will imagine that they
see the form of the card undergoing
changes while they are endeavoring to
| LIZ II Ill lucu luIullS, UuL Will pIOptI
attention the correct image will finally
be represented.
Although it is possible that the ex
perimenters are attaching undue value
to the results already obtained, there
can be no doubt that they are re
moving the doctrine of telepathy from
the realm of coincidence, to which i
has so long been assigned by unbeliev
ers. Nor can the accurate reception O.
messages transmitted in this way b.
set down as instances of clever guess
work. The requirements for successful
telepathy however, are so great that
is probable it will be many a day be
fore it becomes a profitable or a popu
lar science.
