TO SNAP SHOT THE SOUL.
Prof. Price Thinks He CaA-Has Ask
ed Permission to Try 1t at
BeIlyue Hospital.

New York, July 4.-The American
prints the story of Prof. Prices belief
that he can photograph the souls of
dying persons. It says: The IN
heard Of claim that he had discovered
such method was advanced by
Henry Price, a retired professor Of
music at MOuAt Vernon. Mr.. Price
announced he is actually seeking per
mission to make experiments at Bel
leTue Hospital that viii demonstrate
the extraordinary scientific value Of
his discovery.
Mr.. Price says he has made great
headway in his researches as a result
Of the recent declaration by scientists
in Boston that they had been able to
weigh the human soul, and had found
that it balanced the scales at a good
half ounce.
Mr.. Price who was for forty years
the baritone solOist of Trinity church,
New York, says he has made the sub
Jet a life study and he is convinced
that the soul has a real existence, and
that the reason it cannot be seen in
taking its fight from the body is be-
cause those present at the time Of
death are invariably hypnotised. The
theory the soul really exists, Prof.
Price says, is borne out by the fact
that the body lightens Immediately
after death.
his plan Is 70 photograph the soul
as it departs from the body with a
number Of quick snapshots.
ct would be impossible, he says, to
hypnotic the camera, as it records
many things not visible to the naked
eye. In speaking Of the subject to-
day Prof. Price said:
Il would like to have about a half
dozen scientific men in the room as
witnesses to the experiment, and l
would also want a stop watch to re-
cord the transition"
, Have you formed any idea of
what the soul looks like?" asked a re-
portre.
Il don't know what it looks like"
replied Mr.. Price. but / am sure it
don't weigh more than drachm."
what in your opinion becomes of
the soul after it has taken its fllght?"
Mr.. Price was asked.
According to my belief, twas the
reply, ''the soul does not really take
its fight, it passes into another body,
but it has to be removed by someone
whom We viii call an angel or an
agent of the Deity. The angel has to
remove it from the body while it is
yet warm and put it into another be-
ing. If the person don't deserve
another life, then the Deity don't send
for his soul. and he is dead like
common animal"
professor Price was asked If he
had formed any idea regarding the
organism Of the soul
