GREAT MUSIC.
The Mystical influence 1t WieIds Over
Our SenaibiTftfea

The Mystical Influence 1t Wie1ds Over
Our SensibiIitfes.
Great music is a physical storm, agi-
tating to unimaginable depth the mys-
terry Of the past within us or we
might say it is a prodigious incanta-
ton, every different instrument and
voice making separate appeal to diff
ferent billions of prenatal memories.
There are tones that call up all the
ghosts of youth and JOY and tenden-
cies; there are tones that evoke all
phantom pain of perished passion;
there are tones that resurrect all dead
sensations of majesty and might and
glory, all expired Civilizations, all for
gotten magnanimities. Well may the
influence of music seem inexplicable
to the man who idly dreams that his
life began less than a hundred years
ago! But the mystery lightens for
WhOsoever learns that the substance Of
self is older than the sun. He finds
that music is a necromancy; he feels
that to every ripple of melody, to every
billow Of harmony, there answers
within him out of the sea of death and
birth some eddying immeasurable of
ancient pleasure and pain
Pleasure and pain! They commingle
always in great music, and therefore it
Is that music can move us more pro
foundly than the voice of ocean or
than any other voice can do. But in
music's larger utterance it is ever the
sorrow that makes the undertone, the
surf mutter of the sea of soul. Strange
to think how vast the sum of joy and
woe that must have been experienced
before the sense of music could evolve
in the brain of man!-Lafcadio Hearn.

ANNA EVA FAY.
The Oracle of Modern Times

Next Week.

Anna Eva Fay, the world re-
nOwned oracle of modern times,
will open IL three nights engage
ment at Capita Theatre Thursday,
November 20, in brilliant DEM
onstration of Mental Tclepathy.
Science has long since accepted
telepathy as an assured thing and
doubtless Miss Fay has something
to do with compelling this accept
ance, for she is unquestionably an
advance pupil in the realm of
thought transmission without the
intervention of physical forces or
agencies.
Endowed with full understand
ing of the elemnts of spiritualism,
and reared in family of that per-
suasion, Anna Eva Fay, the most
remarkable occultist of the present
age, while still II child, went to
India, where she studied the su-
pernatural arts Of the Mahatmas.
So proficient did she become that
upon her leaving that country the
high priests bestowed upon her the
title of Fair Mahatma," and to
this day she retains the name.
She is said to be possessed of rare
mental power, by the aid of which
she is able to read the thoughts OF
others, to locate missing things or
persons, and even read the future.
She is, however, not u fortune tel
Ter nor clairvoyant. She has ap-
peared before almost every scien-
tific body of the world. Frequent
ly she has been asked to describe
her rpeculiar power, but she herself
does not know how.
What she does may be described,
but as to how she accomplishes SO
many mystifying things is impos-
sible to describe, and there have
been few persons who have even
hazarded an opinion.

AN UNPRECEDENTED SPEC
TACLE.
Military Display a Feature at the
Jamestown Exposition.

One Of the most spectacular
features If the jamestown Ter
Centennial Exposition, to be held
on the shores of Hampton Roads
near Norfolk, in 1907, will be the
grand Military display. Here will
be assembled in martial array not
only the military organizations
and government troops of this
country. but soldiers from all Of
the representative nations of the
world, who will be encamped on
the grounds of the Exposition for
stated periods and will be the ma
tion's guests while in tbs country.
An entire division of L. ;. soldiers
will be quartered ut the Ter-Cel-
tennial to act as Military host fer
the foreign troops. Among the
famous organizations that will be
represented are the Ancient and
Honorable Companies of Artillery
of London and Boston, the Oldest
military organizatins of their re-
spective cuntries. Another COM
pany that will arouse great inter-
est ut the Exposition will be the
Armed Confederate Veterans OF
Tennessee. that will come three
hundred strong, armed with the
old muzzle leaders and uniformed
in the Confederate gray. These old
soldiers from Tennessee encamped
in the midst of an array of the
very best equipment will afford II
most interesting and instructive
opportunity for comparison with
the warfare # those times and
that of the present day.
Officials of the Exposition, real
izing the necessity for space re-
quired To drill and vancouver such
vast body of men, have set aside
thirty acres of land in central
location. to be known as Lees
Parade. " This will he the largest
and most beautiful ground of its
kind ever allotted for the purpose
at aEy of the previous Expositions.
Another feature of the military
display will be the many bands
and musical organizations that
will accompany their regiments to
the Ter-Centennial. The musical
program will he both beautiful and
varied and the Jamestown Expo
sition vii, be il continuous and
varying scene of martial splendoI
