AWKWARD TELEPATHY.

"Odger," otherwise General Sir Henry Colville
who vas killed the other day through a head-on
collision of his automobile with that OF a brother
officer and intimate friend, was deeply versed IN
what may be described the occult and had car
ried the art of telepathic communication with MS
brilliantly clever wife to such a point that con-
versation between them became altogether super
fluous since each knew already before utterance
what the other had at that particular moment IN
mind-whch decidedly embarrassing at times
1t IS not astonishing under the circumstances that
when his son was born he should have had an
astrologer already in waiting 10 cast the child
horoscope the precise moment OF his entry into
the world. Sir Henry's sudden death and the ma
ture of his end have been no surprise for his
wife For inasuuch he had developed her
telepathic powers to such degree that II had
become impossible for him TO keep any secrets from
her she must have known that his end would be
Of violent and sudden character and that 1t would
occur Just about this time. because rot content
with delving into the future in regard TO his only
son. who is now lying seriously injured from tho
effects of accidental discharge OF his gun into
his foot, he had invoked all conceivable oracles
with regard to his destiny. 1t is perhaps THIS
that rendered him much OF fataist ana SO
indifferent to personal danger causing him 10 risk
his life over and again in the most ex-
traordinary and extravaEant manner
