Hunbugs.
From the Brooklyn Eagle.


In attempting to follow the logic of an
Illogical mind we are often severe where
We should be merciful. The Illogical will
argue themselves through false premises
to false conclusions to excuse their faiths.
and clinch their beliefs all the more firmly
because they have gone through the form
OF accounting for them. It Is especially
futile to argue with some kinds of spiritual
ists for they have strange ways of excus-
ing fraud when the fraud. II 1t were not
fraudulent, would seem to establish their
beliefs. For example. II in the course of a
dark seance-and the darker the sea.ice the
better the faithful seem to like it-some
mistrustful Gentle turns on the light and
discovers the "mejunl'' cavorting about In
q white robe with a paper mask on her
face, the whole business is settled to his
mind; 1t is case of cheap deception. But
your wild-eyed, long-bearded, long-hared
man, and your wilder-eyed, mustached and
short-haired woman are not faxed In the
least. They say that the discovery proves
nothing. The "mejum" has been directed
by the spirit that controls her to assume
disguise. that she may more perfectly type
before weak human eyes the form Of the
dead She is just as much a medium when
she Is pranked out by order of the spirits
that she is when she is babbling nonsense
and ascribing It to Napoleon. Washington
and Plato.

CARVING MEERsCHAUM.
Few Native-Born Americans Engaged
in the Craft.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
The trade Of the carvers in bone,~ivory,
meerschaum and like materials has never
fully recovered from the blow 1t received in
the hard times beginning in 1893. There
were at that time probably more than 800
such carvers working in this city. Many Of
them were driven out Of the trade into
other and cruder lines Of carving, and only
q few of those who thus changed their me-
dunn have been able to find work of the old
kind. Only q very small part Of those who
do sucn carving belong to the class Of true
artists in ivory. bone and meerschaum. or
such highly skilled caryers the whole num-
Der could probably be counted on the fin
gers Of the two hands The business grows
very slowly. There are few native Ameri-
cans who have mastered the craft. Pos
sibly a single employing carver, native
American Of German parentage, Is the only
one now engaged in the art. Only two
town. Most Of those engaged in the art
are Germans. though a few Frenchmen
have worked here. The German-Amerdcan
referred to thinks that most Americans lack
the patience to become skilled carvers The
American haste is antagondstic to the attt-
tude Of mind that the successful carver
must maintain.
German carvers Of taste and skill could
earn much higher pay here than at home,
and II more should come over they would
find permanent employment, but they are
not attracted by conditions here. On the
whole, they can live more cheaply in Ger
many than here, and amid more congenial
surroundings. Another consideration that
deters the skilled carvers from coming to
New York is the rumors they hear OF dis
agreements between employers and en-
ployed, strikes and trammeling union rules.
They have q notion that trades union con-
ditions here are such as to disturb the Sc
renfty Of the artist. AS a matter Of fact.
the artistic carver would probably be little
disturbed by the wars OF employer and
employed, but the news that reaches Ger
many on this subject is alarming.
Chinese carvers Of real artistic skill
would be very welcome here, but the diff
ficulties presented by the Chinese eXclu-
sion law help to keep them at home, for
there might be some trouble in having such
the Chinese skilled carvers are a contented
body of men, earning good pay for China,
and enjoying some social consideration.
Few Of them now have the skill of the
earlier Chinese carvers, and many do only
the crudest work.
The skilled carver in this city usually
makes his own tools, FORCES them in the
workshop. tempers, grinds and polishes
them ready for use. The Japanese carvers
use much the same tools. and almost ex-
actly the same methods. as the Germans
who work beside them. The pay Of the
skilled carver is exceHent-from s. to SO
q day, according to the character OF the
work and the ability Of the carver to I'M
press his worth upon his employer. There
are unions of the artistic carvers, but the
ablest Of them have no need Of union aid
in maintaining their rights.

EFFIGIEs OF BUDDHA LOST
Futile Attempts to Obtain Buddhist
Figures for a Philadelphia Museum.

From the Philadelphia Press
The authorities of the University Mu-
scum are greatly concerned over the mys-
FERROUS disappearance of two Buddhist fig
ures purchased in Japan by Prof Maxwell
Sommerville and said to have arrived I'm
San Francisco about one month ago
The images, for which Prof Sommer-
vile paid 500 apiece. had long done duty
as guardians of a Buddhist temple. and
in this capacity they were sacred things
to all Buddhists 1t is believed by several
OF the members Of the board of managers
that the Chinese Buddhists in San Fran
cisco learned that the images were en-
route to this country and that they con-
trived to steal them from the custom house
in San Francisco.
Prof. Sommerville is inclined to believe
that he has been victimized by dishonest
japanese agents once more A year or
more ago he bought 'Buddha" which was
of extraordinary value on account of the
service it had seen. 1t was worm-eaten
and decrepit and altogether an object of
deep interest to antiquarfans. When the
image got to Philadelphia 1t was found that
another "Buddha." new. and therefore less
sacred, had been substituted for the image
bought by Prof Sommerville.
On another occasion two expensive vases
were deliberately smashed in transit SO
Prof. Sommerville says. He insists that it
Is mere matter Of jealousy among Japan
csc dealers, and that one tries to mar the
others reputation, thereby gaining his
trade, but this view is by no means unani-
nous among the officers of the museum
1t Is known that Prof. Sommerville's
Buddhist Temple, on exhibition at the mu-
scum, has been a source Of annoyance and
humiliation to the followers of Buddha in
the United States. who consider the model
In the light Of a sacrilege. The Chinese
Buddhists in San Francisco are numerous
and devout, and no one questions that they
would steal the guardians If they got an
opportunity.
How such a theft could be effected is a
problem which puzzles the museum officers,
but the fact remains that the figures,
long overdue, have been lost sight of en-
urely. They are large wooden images, five
feet high. and Prof. Sommerville does not
believe that they would have been lost by
accident.
