REWARD FOR A

FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS AWAIT
ING PERSON WHO CAN CALL UP
SPOOKS.

NEW YORK, November 9.-The Met
ropolitan Psychica Society has raised
$4,000 which will be given for the ac-
tual demonstration that spirits commu
nicate with this world, and many ap-
plications from mediums in all parts OF
the country who wish to undergo a test
for the prize have been received.
1t is expected that many more will
be heard from when they learn that
this sum can be had for convincing
showing of the reality of spirit mes
sages. The money will go to any me-
dunn who can call up spirit able to
accurately count the number of oranges
taken from sack and rolled noiseless-
~ upon padded table Precautions
will be taken to prevent the medium
from being assisted by other persons.
Today at the Office of the society's
secretary w. S Davis, % Spruce street

L. l.. Kellogg, examined fifty appli-

told each one in turn he or she could

SHOLTO DOUGLAS
FIES FATAL SHOT
WOUNDS FORMER ARMY OFFICER
IN CANADA AND FACES MURDER
CHARGE.

WINNIPEG (Man), November g.
Lord Sholto Douglas, brother to the
present Marquis of Queensberry and
son of the eigth marquis who framed
the Queensberry rules under which
prize fights are now conducted, is held
in the provincial Jail at Nelson, British
Columbia, and will probably have to
face a murder charge.
Last week Sholto went shooting, and
upon his return found his house at
Creston, B. c., occupied by an eX-offi-
Ger of the British army, named Row.
land He ordered him to leave, but
Rowland would not do so, whereupon
Sholto emptied his shotgun at short
range into the back of the head and
neck of Rowland. Sholto was arrest
ed and held for trial on a charge OF
attempted murder. but judging from
the condition of Rowland this even
ing, this will be changed to a charge
of murder.

KAISER FACES
LOSS OF POWER
REICHSTAG WILL CONSIDER
BOER WAR INTERVIEW-FEEL-
ING is AGAINST ABSOLUTISM.

BERLIN. November 9.-Many of
Chancellor Buelow's severest critics,
who a week ago we're demanding his
retirement from office, are now anX-
iously urging him to remain, for, with
the prospect that an inexperienced and
less tactful man would be named as
his successor, the public imagination
sees the probability of perils and
blunders more damaging to German
prestige than those already made.
Whether or not Prince Buelow stays,
however, is now a secondary consider
alton. The great question to be deter
mined at this weeks session of the
Reichstag is whether Germany shall
now advance toward constitutional and
parliamentary reform, enforcing the
principle of responsibility in relations
of the sovereign to the people. or
whether it is to be exposed further to
such embarrassments as resulted from
the Kaiser's sensational London inter
view The feeling that the nation has
come to a parting of the ways between
disguised absolutism and responsible
Ministerial government is widespread.
