DR.. Newton Tells OF Spirits.

Scientists and psychologists are as
eussipg the remarkable statements
made By Rev. DR.. R. Heber Newton
before a meeting of the American
Institute for Scientific Research In
New York last week. DR.. Newton
declared that the spirits of the dead
communicate with the living; that
telepathy is a power possessed by many
persons; that clairvoysnce is an sstao-
fished fact, and that many other De,
liefs regarded by the majority OF
persons as superstitiOus can be demon
strated as truths.
In the course of his address at TIE
meeting he said:
THE belief in the existence OF un-
seen spirits and Of their power OF COM
mupics ton with us in the flesh is one
Of the Oldest, most widespread and
most insist.nt beliefs Of man, and 1t
has been revived strangely in our day:
"For the first time in the history OF
man these powers have been scisn-
ti6cally investigated in our day. Al
ready tn. result is that a cOnnderaol'
number Of eminent men Of science
have had the courage to avow that
after allowing for illusion, fraud and
every possible hypOthesi. of interPrs-
tstion. they have been driven up to
the ultimate solution of the problem
the belief in the actual communication
Of the spirits of thoes whom We call
dead with the living.

The Jsps as Soldiers.

Many prominent military men Of Eu-
rope and America have expressed the
opinion that the japanese are the best
OF soldiers. This assertion may be some
what exaggerated, but still their Won
derful showing in the war with Russia
prove them to be well trained and cour-
ageous. The wonderful cures made by
the celebrated Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers during the past so years prove it to
be the most reliable family medicine in
the world for Indigestion, dyspepsia,
constipation, billiousness, general de-
bility, kidney and liver troubles, female
disorders, chills, colds or malaria. We
urge you to try bottle to-day and test
it for your own satisfaction, also get a
copy OF oar 1905 illustrated Almanac
from your druggist 1t is free and con-
tains much instructive reading matter.

No More Stomach Troubles.

All stomach trouble is removed by
use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 1t gives
the stomach perfect rest by digesting
what you eat without the stomach's
aid. The food builds up the body, the
rest restores the stomach to health.
You don't have to diet yourself when
taking Kedol Dyspepsia Cure. j. D..
Erskine, of Allenville, Mich, says, Il
suffered Heartburn and stomach Trou-
BILE for some time. Ny sister-in-law has
had the same trouble and was not able
to eat for six weeks. She lived entirely
on warm water. After taking two bot
ties of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure she was
entirely cured. She now eats heartily
and is in good health. am glad TO say
Kodol gave me instant relief. Sold by
Remnants Pharmacy.

THERE seems to be little hope that
the fall of Port Arthur will bring
Russia and Japan any nearer peace.
Both sides seem determined to fight
on-the japanese because they are
elated at their victory and have more
confidence now than ever that they
will ultimately win, while the Rus
slams realize that their prestige as a
world power will greatly decrease if
they permit an inferior nation like
Japan to whip them. The indications
are, therefore, that the bloody strug-
gle will be prolonged, unless the other
European powers step in and demand
that the war shall end. Even this
step would be more likely to comph-
cate affairs than to mend matters,
for Japan will not give up if she has
to forfeit anything she has won IN the
present contest, and Russia will not
yield her supremacy in the far East
unless she is overpowered most cen
clusively.
Russia is moving troops forward as
rapidly as possible to reinforce Cen
eral Kuropatkin, and by spring will
have an army of 100000 near Muk-
den. The japanese, now that they
no longer need the army at Port
Arthur, are also concentrating about
Mukden, and in couple of months
there may be fought there the great
est battle the world has ever known
battle which may decide whether
the yellow peril" shall become
terror to tn. world, or whether the
cross shall be firmly planted where
now superstition prevails.

John J. Penner, an extra freight
conductor on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad, running between Cumber-
land and Brunswick, shot and killed
his wife at Cumberland yesterday and
then turned the weapon on himself.
The woman died instantly, as did
Penner. Both were shot through the
head. Penner had been drinking, and
upon several occasions recently stated
openly that he intended to kill his
wife. Both were dead some time be-
fore the tragedy was known. One
of their children, a little girl, told a
neighbor, but she was not believed,
and when her story was accepted
people were afraid to enter the house
1t is said Penner's mind was affected
by a protracted drinking "spree.
The four children of the couple, the
oldest Of whom is only ten years old,
witnessed the crime.

Largest guaranteed circulation in
Jefferson county"
THIS emphatic statement has for
many months graced the most conspic-
uous part of the first page Of our es-
teemed contemporary, the Charles
Town Advocate. We would not de-
tract from the pleasure that we pre-
sumo the publisher OF the Advocate
gets from reading this assertion every
week, and yet we fear the cause Of
truth is suffering as long as we permit
the statement to go unchallenged.
We don't know Just how the Advo-
cate can make good its guarantee, for
we don't believe it knows the exact
circulation of the other papers OF this
county, and We shall be glad to have
it prove its case by actual and reha-
bic figures. If it has larger cireu-
lation in Jefferson county than the
REGISTER we will own up, even though
we will be greatly surprised, and We
will furnish our list Of subscribers TO
the Advocate or any person it may
wish to name, provided our contem-
por,ry will do the same.
If straws show the way the wind
blows, the REGISTER has a much
q eater circulation than the Adyo-
cate, both in Jefferson county ard out
of it. The Advocate publishes each
week list of those who pay their
subscription, and We take it for grant
ed that this list is accurate. In its
last issue the number reported was 50.
For the corresponding time the REG
IsTEE's list was go. We also had the
curiosity to ascertain how many SUBJ
scribers the Advocate reported as hav-
ing paid during year. a careful
count of the name. printed in its own
columns showed that the REGIsTER
had more subscribers from Jefferson
county alone to renew than all Of the
Advocates put together.
From these facts We think that our
Charles Town contemporary has made
an assertion that won't stand the test
of truth and we hope he will take
down his flag.
