------=----------------------- Denies DueIfsts' PardOnN

Ever since Prince Henry returned from the land of the free, German du- elists have had hard time of it, for the kaiser won't grant any more par 'dons to gentlemen who take the law in their own hands. Learning from Prince Henry that Americans lead or derly and dignitied lives without oeca- sional appeals to pistols and swords, William concluded that Germans ought ito try the same methods. While for merly duelists served only an infini- .tesimal portion of the sentence im- posed by the courts, the kaiser pardon ing them after a few days or weeks, stheir petitions for imperial grace are
 now returned with the invariable re- mark: His majesty sees no reason for intereference." This is conse- quence of Prince Henry's visit which the lieutenants and young lawyers don't like at all.-Milwauke Sentinel.

SAW DAUGHTERS sPEcTER.
Strange Psychic Phenomenon Which Told a Man of His Distant
 ChiId's Death.

''In the matter or apparitions I had tone experience which convinced me that there is something in psychical science even if everything claimed in connection with it is not true," ex- claimed well-known man.
 Some years ago circumstances made me member of an arctic expedition. We were pretty far up toward the north and were tied up very snugly in a huge ice pack with cheerless sur roundings, and had been there for some time. Time passed rather slow ly and to keep myself occupied l took up the study of shorthand, giving it 8 couple of hours each day. One after noon l was sitting in the cabin study ing earnestly with shorthand charac- -ters, and as far as l knew my mind was thoroughly occupied with them, when all of a sudden on looking up l saw my daughter standing immediately in front of me.
 To all intents and purposes she was there as sure as when l had seen her last in my home in Philadelphia many months before. She did not speak or apparently make any effort to speak. The apparition did not last over mo- ment, but it seemed much longer. Thinking that it might be possible for others to see her l called out to some of my companions, but though there was instant response on the part of a comrade he saw nothing and neither did l after he came in.
 "Of course 1 was considerably worked up over it, and on a suggestion of some one made record of it on the ships log, being careful to be ac- cnrate as regards the day, date, hour and even the minute. The record is preserved to-day in the department, and was properly signed by several so there could be no mistake about it. With the apparition came into my thought the fact that my daughter had died, but for many months after. ward l was unable to confirm it in any way.
 On the return of our party five months afterward on reaching New foundland the ship got mail, the first we had had for long time. was sure sthere would be letters for me from my home and there were several of them, The first ore that l opened gave me all the confirmation I desired-indeed, more than 1 Misunderstanding that my daughter had died in her home in Phil adelphia the exact day, hour and min- sute that had seen her up in the arc -tics. There was no guesswork, imag- ination, coincidence or anything else about it except the terrible fact. My comrades knew about it as well as my- self, and the ships log had had it re- corded months before.
 That record is still in existence, with the other records of the expeClf- tion, and though it was my first and only experience in connection with ap- partitions it was enough to prove to me and the others of our party that ap. partitions are true sometimes, even if they are not always. have no theory in explanation, concluded the man, ac. cording to the Washington Star, "and only know that the news of the death of my daughter thousands of miles away came to me by some unexplained psychic source and was by me told to the others, while we were up in the ice pack of the arctics and that it was fully verified"
