EASY MONEY FOR STOCKS.
Medium Will Receive St 1000 if Spirit
 Aid Reads Open Books.

Spooks of literary turn of mind can now make si,000 or more by reading open books, the medium who brings about thls feat to receive the money.
 This offer grows out of the article in the last number of the Journal of the American society for Psychical Research descriptive of the abilities of certain Mrs. Questin 10 read the contents or books through a case with the kindly aid of her spirit control.
 Members of the Metropolitan Psy- chical society who have long had this plan under consideration now take this opportunity to make an induce ment which may bring about test of the eyesight of spirits. Among those interested are W S Davis, Joseph A. Rim, and James l.. Kellogg,
 This test Is a very simple one" said Mir. Davis yesterday. and 1t Is offered because # has the stamp of approval of authorities on spiritualism to whom 1t was submitted They decided that 1t was not at all incom- patihle with the laws of spirltuallsm as understood. We propose to have q book orened at random and held above the head of the medium. The spirit will be expected to name the first words of the first three lines at the top of the right hand page After that the spirit can read as far as he likes That is all we ask. The larg- est print may be used, In fact. would just as soon open up a wooden type catalogue containing letters a foot square, If spirits return to earth and If they can see why should they not be able 10 read a little? Cir culars will be sent out shortly to all mediums to take part in this simple test but probably the actual attempt to read will not be arranged for until the fall Mir Kellogg is willing to contribute S1,000, and know another man who Is likely to give a similar amount, while possibly an additional $1,000 could be raised in smaller sums.

record. The stock on hand, the use to which dynamite has been put aud the whereabouts of every stick are recorded. Here a man can buy a stick of dynamite about as easily as he can buy stick of candy.
 This case of access to high explos- ives Is evidently perilous to the public peace, The railroads have acted to- gether to prote { the transporta ion of dynamite and the recent report of the bureau shows the carelessaess with which dynamite Is packed and handled, The House has passed bill on the subject regulating transporta- ton. But the states ought to act. Dealers in dynamite should be licenlad everywhere, not merely in cities. A record should follow the explosive. It ought to be possible to trace avary package sold of any high explosive. This would not rrcN ent explosions, but 1t would greatly diminish them by making 1t more difficult to pro ire dynamite and easier to trace 1t from hand to hand and person to person.

 To-day.
ARTILLERY SHOOTS VEL

Under the best of weather conditions the annual brigade rife match was held at the East Haven range yesterday and wlll be continued today. On account Of the fact that the men were inexperI- epced in the use of the new Springfield rifle, the scores this year were lower than they have been for many years In the match between the rife team of the Second regiment of this city and the rifle team which represented the First regiment of Hartford, the local boys won, having mark of 4S points better than the visitors.
 Taken as whole there was little particularly good individual shooting by any member of any company when the scores of former years are taken into consideration. The match will be continued today when the skirmlsh 500 yards, and 1000 yards event will be shot The match today will start at s;S0 o'clock The final scores for yes terday's shoot were as follows;

PRIZE FIGHTING IN THE NAVY.

The killing of a marine on the bat tleship Mississippi by a professional prize fighter Is the second or third "ac- cident" of thls kind in the navy with in the last two years. In the previous Instances, the boxing matches" were between sailors; this time civilian tal- ont was aekod on board of the battle ship to make things interesting for the crew We shall be told of course, that such accidents are bound to hap pen in the search for the strenuous which is necessary to toughen men for the sport of man-kiling But the question will not down. why such brut- al prize-fghts should be permitted on board of our me1 -of-War. About ev- cry state in the Union prohibits them as contrary to public order and morals
 and as a result the rize-hghter goes about his business after the manner of the midnight burglar, and is always In fear of arrest when engaged in his elevatine and scientific pursuits.
 The one place where he is welcomed with open arms and where men are openly encouraged to follow in his foot steps is the navy Why not devote a couple of our battleships to this sport altogether, if it is so desirable? They could "a anchored off this city or Phil adelphia or San Francisco, and the sporting fraternity would contribute literally to their upkeep Certainly, at such useful naval exercises the general public ought not to be excluded They ought to be allowed to share the fun with our officers, including the chap lains And we take 1t for granted that pension for death in action will be awarded to the dead marines fam fly Did he not give up his life for the benefit and improvement of the 'navy,-New York Evening Post.
