the statement frequently made thar
the risk of travel IS greater I'm Amer
lea than in Grea, britain. From the
figures gathered II appears that in
the period named In Great Britain
SIX passengers were killed, or one
out Of every 975S,OOO carried, and
53i were injured. or one out of every
2,2ii,i12 carried. In the United

were injured. or one out Of every l49 3.

way employees, the net results is that
In America ono in every 357 was
killed ana one In nineteen injured.
while III Great Britain ono in every
Si5 was killed aud one in every
cighty.six was injured
In justice TO the American roads
II may he added that the risks Of
travel aud employment on American
roads are necessarily greater, since
the distances truvcrscd here are much
longer. many OF the roads newer,
ani the physical obstacles to be
overcome much greater, in many IN

LoNooN's $4,000 sPook.
Conjurer Does Weird Tricks to Gain
Rich Prize,

Rtch Prize.
What possibly may come to be
known as the $4,000 spooK was mater
ialized at ST. Georges Hall today by
j. n, Maskelyne. whom London has
known and highly respected fer for
ty years as n conjuror and eXposer of
spiritualistic frauds.
Maskelyne's performance was in re.

April by Archdeacon Colley who Of
fered to pay $4,000 if Maskelyne
would produce by trickery any one OF
several things he and the late Dr.
Monck witnessed in a splrituallstic
seance twenty-nine years ago Arch.
deacon Collcy was convinced that the
wonderful things he and DR.. Monck
saw were the work of spirits, and he
did not consider that he was in any
danger of losing his $4,000 when lie
issued his challenge
Maskelyne selected one of the
things designated by the archdeacon,
and undertook to fulfill all the condi-
tiOns in respect to it set forth in the
challenge. He appeared on the stage
in the role of Dr. Monck, and col
{ league impersonated Archdeacon Col
ley. They were dressed In clerical
garb and talked in low. solemn tones,
while the or. hestra played slow mu-
sic.
| Two chairs were placed in the cen
ter and rear of the stage. and the
back of the platform was covered
with dark cloth. Three electric bulbs
in the wings above the chairs provii-
ed the necessary light. The archdea-
con professed to be haunted by an
evil spirit. DR.. Monck spoke some
reassuring words, and then, sitting in
a chair went into trance. the arch
deacon occupying the other chair.
Presently little smoke appeared
issuing from DR.. Monck's side, and
gradually 1t increased in volume A
moment later the smoke died away
and to the left of DR.. Monck a light
was seen. This light slowly changed
into the head and shoulders of wo-
