FEAR OF GHOSTS.

Shrink In Terror.
Deep down in the heart of man there
abides firm belief in the power of the

in the sciences and fortified In mind
against faith in aught that savers of

fear of sheeted specters which may
rise from the grass grown graves or
emerge from moonlit tombs and follow
on, for, strangely enough, the dead, If
not actually hostile to the living are
esteemed dangerous and dreadful to.
encounter.
It used to be the fashion, says a writ
.er in Lippincott's Magazine, to sweep
away all such notions by saying that
they had their origin in the childhood
of the race and that they sprang from
fear of the unknown. This unques-
-tfonably was the easiest way to dis
pose Of them, but was it fair? The
subject possesses intense interest for a
great majority Of mankind, and, though
the existence of ghosts is improved,
there is undeniably a vast deal of tes-
timony in their behalf that deserves
serious and respectful consideration.
! Fortunately, within the last few years
the attitude Of science toward the
problem has altogether changed. and,
actuated by new spirit Of inquiry, the
wise men have been engaged, thought
fully and without prejudice, in study
ing it out
While it cannot be said that any final
and definite conclusions have as yet
been reached, an immense amount of
evidence has been sifted, enough to
show pretty conclusively for one point
that the traditional specter Of the Cock
Lane school, with elanking chain and
attributes dlsagreeably suggestive, of
3 the grave, has no basis in fact. On the
/ other hand, there are certain phantoms,
altogether different IN their character

would be required to establish COM
1 plete proof In any ordinary case in a
/ court of law. Nothing short Of abso-
/ lutte demonstration in such d matter
I can be satisfactory, but the evidence
| in question certainly staggers incre-
I dulity.
! Our fear Of phantoms appears to
| spring from a dread of the unknown
| the mysterious and the Intangible:
| That it is a ground1ess terror is proved
| by the fact that in many thousands of
cases Of alleged spectral appearances
subjected during the last few years to
| painstaking Investigation not single
| instance has been found in which an
| injury was inflicted by the, ghost upon
| the, person or persons to- whom it pre-
sented itself. So, that, even if we are
to accept apparitions as veritables we
ought to regard them with curiosity
rather than with apprehension, and in
stead of trying: to avoid such supernat-
ural visitors we, should eagerly seek an
opportunity to- be haunted for the sake
OF observing for ourselves phenomena
SO intensely interesting.
