WANTS TO TALK TO
 SPIRIT OF BEECHER
DR. FUNK SEEKS COMMUNICATION WITH THE DEPARTED THAT HE MIGHT LEARN MORE OF THE WIDOWS MITE COIN.

Boston. April 4-Richardson Hodgson, secretary of the American branch for physical research, has received a letter from pr. Isaac K. Funk of New York In regard to the widows mite coin' the possession of which a splritualistic medium revealed to Dr. Funk. by whom 1t had been forgotten for nearly ten years.
 pr. Funk wished to get into communi- cation with the spirit of Henry Ward Beecher. through which the revelation Ill regard to the coin was made in order to learn what disposition the preacher would have made of 1t. He wrote Dr. Hodgson to find out if Mrs. Piper, noted medluh' would assist in the case
 Mr Hodgson expresses doubt or the eenuineness of the original spiritual mes sage. ,,
 "Not that doubt pr. Funk's sincerity
 but bevond that there Is a much more difficult problem of discovering whether the message really came from ulscar nate spirit, or was revealed by telepathy through q living person, c
 .sIn dealing with communications rom spirits you must first eliminate all pos sibility of interference from liVlng peo- ple. In a case like this It is pracucally impossible to do so.
 If MT. Piper is used in connection wlth this matter 1t is not at all sure thal definite answers to our inquiries VIII DC obtained. It is just as if gave somebody the name of a living person, whose Whers- ahouts was unknown and asked to have him traced. It could not be done in minutes; I have got to find somebody who communicates through Mrs Piper and get him to hunt up MT. Beecher for us.

THE BANK IS IN NO DANGER
Capital City National Bank Had Re- uarded Simms as One of It's Most Reliable Employes-U. s. Gov
 ernment Will Prosecute.

Atlanta, April 4.-G. Hallman Sims, collection clerk for the Capital City National bank. has been placed under arrest by United States Deputy Marshal Scott upon a warrant sworn out by Pres ident speer of the bank, charging Sims with embedding the sum of $04.o0o. Sims is now held at the Piedmont hotel by deputy marshal He refuses to talk about the affair."
 The first suspicion of a shortage in Sims accounts arose yesterday. Expert accountants immediately began work on the books and it was soon disclosed that large sums had been extracted at various times extending back several years. The warrant was then sworn out by the pres ident of the bank. Sims has been in the service of the bank for eight years, and was regarded as one of its most reliable employees. He moved in the most exelu- sive circles of Atlanta society and was popular as a young man of fashion"
 Prominent outside bankers have made a thorough examination or the banks condition, and have given out a signed statement that 1t is absolutely safe. A portion of the defalcation IS covered by Sims bond, and he also owns some prop erty which will be turned over to the rank. The direesors state that the amount of tho defalcation has aiready been charged to undivided profits. National Bank Examiner Desaussure also states that the bank is in no danger.
 Sims, who has admitted his guilt will be prosecuted by the United States gov ernment. He is unmarried ana Is the son of Thomas L. Sims, prominent resi- dent of Kirkwood. one of Atlanta's su- burbs.

leave at this late date. I am, however. most assuredly in favor of giving the Filipinos a chance to govern themselves. In other words, give them an opportunity to demonstrate that they are capable of self-government. 1t seems to me that with the election but a few months over a year away that the trust and tariff questions will be the main issue to be de- cided at the election. The American peo- pie are too intelligent to be fooled by the alleged anti-trust legislation of the last congress or by promises of tariff re- vision at some dim distant date
 Attempt Not Sincere.
 There will be no sincere attempt to regulate the trusts or to revise the tariff until there is a democratic congress and a democratic President a the Whiea House. The record of the republican con- gress just closed shows the utter folly of depending on that party for anything but a subservience to high protectionists and corporate interests. It will be the same in the next congress, for the re- publican party owes it's ascendency to the tariff protected trusts and is. just honest enough not to repudlate the debt

One Questioner Pinned His Unbelief on the
Text or the Old Testament, but That
Gave the Clergyman No Trouble.
because He Doesn't Believe the Text.
The Rev. DR.. Lyman Abbott In an adj
dress to the members Of the Peoples Insti-
tute last night in the Cooper Union on
the subject Of what Is Religion said
among other things:
Theology In not religion. Theology 10
what men think about religion.
"A man may be orthodox and not relig-
ious; man may be orthodox and yet be
irreligious.
Religion cannot be put into . creed.
Religion Is the life Of God put into the soul
Of man.
Ceremonies and prayers are merely the
way we take to give expression to our
religious feelings. The object Of the
ritual is TO express the light. but the ritual
Is not the light. no more than language Is
love. Language merely expresses the
love.
The Great Father wants love. He cares
not how We utter II. or by what form or by
what method.
Church organization Ia not religion.
Joining q church 10 not showing religion.
There are some very religious people out
aide the Church. and there are some very
irreligious people inside the Church
Patriotism will produce an army. but
the army is not patriotism; love OF educa-
ton will produce a school, but the school
is not education.
Religion Is not the doing Of some things
and abstaining from the doing Of other
things
10 do right Is religion. To reverence
your God and to love your neighbor. That
Is all. Nothing less than that and nothing
Religion does not ask you to Be . Catholic
or a Protestant. . Jew or Christian, to Be
. believer or an unbeliever; simply all asks
IL this: Do Justly, love marcy walk rover
emily With God This Is the light and light
II Is the custom at the meetings Of the
put questions to the speaker OF the evening.
A few Of these questions with the answers
given to them by DR., Abbott follow.

Q. You spoke about ceremony. not being
