Through experiments with Eusapia
Pallidino, the famous Italian medium,
who is now in New York, attention
will once more be directed to what
has been called. "spiritualism." This
may not be a correct name or a sci
entific name. 1t may not be the name
BY which 1t will be finally known.
spiritualism was a name given it fifty
years ago in an era and area less
critical and more credalous than can
be found today; but BY whatever
name 1t may be called, 1.-THE fact re-
mains that there is positive force
and an apparent intelligence that
transcends the known or normal At
a seance held In New York under
rigid and unsympathetic scrutiny, a
tabe was seen to rise entirely from
the floor. Either the spectators we're
hypnotized, as was also the camera
which took an instantaneous picture,
or else there was levitation independ-
ent of normal mechanical OF physical
means. But this phenomenon is not
new or even rare. Thousands and
tens OF thousands are familiar with
it. It has occurred in family circles
independent of mediumistic assist
ance, and thousands more may. with
a little trouble and patience, produce
the same results in the family circle
where the bonafldes Of those present
will eliminate the suspicion OF trick
cry. How is il done? Who knows?
Spirits? Maybe so, Undiscovered
human agency2 Perhaps. Supernorm-
al? Doubtless. Eliminate the scores
Df vulgar professional mediums. trick
cry fortune tellers who subsist on hui
man credulity and human sorrow.
rhe presence OF force unknown to
science, and supernormal lntelli-
gence cannot be denied--is not denied |
except by scientific dogmatists.

Most people are greatly affected by
the spectacular. and because Of this
and the glamor and excitement Of war
the deeds of naval and military heroes
will always appeal to people with I'M
usual force. But let It not be forgot
ten that there are heroes Of peace,
many Of them, and that their deeds
are Just as noble and just as self-sac-
riflcing as those Of men who on the
field Of battle form forlorn hope or
rush with unswerving courage into
the jaws OF death.
Heroes OF peace are found in every
walk of life and in every situation
In mine and workshop. in field and
forest they are always to be found
I'm every time of need to risk or even
lose their lives in the attempt to save
their fellow creatures from danger
and death. Not a week passes but
the pulse beats quicker and faith in
is strengthened because Of
heroic deeds done not to destroy life,
but to save 1t. At one time It is the
story Of one who burns slowly to
death as he remains steadfastly at
the helm Of the burning ship that the
living freight may escape In safety.
At another the record is that OF some
locomotive engineer who. with equal
adelity to duty. stands to his post
when disaster Is certain. and dies
hat others may live.
And today people talk of a terrible
mining catastrophe and Of hundreds
Meeting death far down In the lower
workings. And mingled with senti.
nents Of deepest pity is the glow OF
ride as they read Of the rescuinv |
'arty going down into the inferno OF
moke and fire and deadly gas to
escue their fellows They go down
nee too often. and are brought to
he surface blackened and dlsfigured
orpses. They sealed their devotion
0 duty and humanity by their lives.
Such instances show how much
oodness, compassion, self-denial and
exists on this earth. 1t
) well to remember this whenever
'e think that the world is given
yer to selfishness and an eternally
stening to the ring Of the dollar.

A STRONG eolNr.

A strong point, effectively brought
out by Prof Geo. NJ. Lynch. Of the
State University, IN an address at an
educational rally IN Live Oak recently,
says The Tampa Times, is the follow
ing. which ought to induce some very
serious thinking on the part of tax
payers and those who appoint the
teachers in our public schools:
Under our system now in opera
ton, incompetent, inexperienced, lr.
responsible boys ana girls, with no
higher motive than to earn few dol
lars, are vested with the sacred re.
sponslbility and power OF training
the youth. We need better teachers
In our country schools. men aid wo-
men of culture, refinement and intelli-
genee; earnest. conscientious and
quick in the discharge Of duty. When
We secure these teachers we should
pay them decent salaries and protect
them from the personal whlms and
wlll-o'the-wisp ideas Of the human

times places In charge OF our coun-
try schools"

in the third, one IN the fifth and
another in the eighth. Junction Guy
counted two runs in the second and
three in the seventh. Both teams
slapped the pill for 10 hits and re-
ceived four errors each.
Ergot's batting and Bechtold's
fielding were features. Bechtold tore
across right field, passed the center
fielder and just barely got a fly that
was planting itself in left. Ward
also was the gun at the bat getting
three hits.

Thompson and did not do any better.
The afternoon game is hardly
worth mentioning as Abilene lost In
the same way as it did in the morn
ing. Mallon just could not put the
ball over so it would hypnotic the
Junction bunch and they swatted j.
at leisure. Mallon is capable Of pitch

Junction City took the first game
from Abilene yesterday by the score
of Z to 4. The Junction bunch piled
up six scores in the second inning.
Ellis was retired from the game on
account of his charley horse" and
Songer, some new recruit who re-
placed him. misjudged two flies
which let in three scores.
The game was interesting through
out after the second inning. The
result of the game should have been
four to three in Abilene's favor but
fate was against the home boys and
junction accumulated three more
runs which defeated the locals.

damage. Ellis singled. Wilson then
hammered one to center field which
was bobbled and let Ellis gain third

next to bat and signaled for squeeze
