Dr. Wu, Chinese Diplomat,
 Makes Visit to Spirit World

was there and wished to give him . message.
 Ask her to speak to me-" said pr. .Wu.
 : At the request the medium uttered. as If. with great difficulty. sentence In the Chinese language. or as near to 1t as 1t might be possible for an Indian giri.1 able to, speak only the most broken Eng,,sh, t9 % repest, ,on to n.,,a sa this in turn passing from the lips of another woman necessarily would be somewhat Imperfect, but pr. Wu ap- parently understood portions of the message repeated to him and answered in Chinese.
 The first sentence was in the nature of . salutation and in reply the states men questioned the spirit" in Chinese, receiving an answer which seemed un- ioubtedly to be in Chinese. ana the conversation continued fully five min utes. Through the medium the Indian "control' occasionally remarked that Dr. Wp did not fully understand what the medium was trying to say to him. owing to the third hand manner. so to speak. in which the Chinese was reaching him.
 During the conveyance of the mes- sage purporting to come from Dr.. Wn's mother, the medium stood close to the diplomat, at times holding his hani and batting him on the shoulder. Finally she knelt in front of him. con- tinufng talking in that position . couple of minutes.
 At the conclusion of this converse tion the Indian girl told what she foresaw in the future in connection with the Chinese minister.
 Sees Much Fighting.
 First of all she saw much fight ing" in, the far away country from which he came.
 Ills native land was preparing. she said, for great struggle. It was be +vitally interested in this terrible conflict and would hold an office of great importance.
 Shortly after this the medium said there came to. her spirit. a friend of the minfster's. who was not one of his own country, but was an American. This spirit gave to the medium the name of william" and finally, after some hesitation. she uttered the last name as Mckinley"
 $ The control" remarked that the spirit had left this earth eight years ago. Assuming a dignified attitude the medium bowed respectfully to Dr. Wu and in the deep clear masculine voice said:
 How are you. my friend? I am William Mckinley, former president of the United States. I have just heard what the little Indian girl predicted to you about q great war for China. I sincerely hope that no such war will ever take place. I am for peace and I know you also are for peace. are you not?''
 Yes" said the Chinese statesman. T am for peace always"
 T am sure you will do all you can to prevent this great war, my brother. and I, too. will continue to work for peace" said the medium. Thus ended the communication.
 Dr. Wu apparently was too astound- ed at what he heard to assume his characteristic role of rapid fire inter- rogator. for he failed to question the spirit of the former president. He showed every evidence of being pro- foundly impressed.
 From his aftache he obtained one of his cards. which he held in his hands for some minutes while the medium went to other persons in the room and gave spirit messages. Then the min. ister procured piece of paper and proceeded to write note. apparently something he wished to be given to the medium. Itsis purport wasas not divulged. medium had come out of her trance, pr. Wu and Wu Chang departed
