NO DOUBT HIS ASTRAL BODY.

The ahenist has been conspicuous again in the Hams murder trial at Flush
ing The scientific opinions given to the court and jury as usual, widely vary
The slenht for the prosecution is Numerically opposed to he ahenist for the
defense, and, as science is an exact knowledge Of course both are right for
how could IT be otherwise? There has been some remarkable expert evidence in
murder trials OF late the Thaw trial furnishing some ventabe sensations, but
it remained for an sHenist in the Hams trial to starte judge and jury with the
statement that he had observed and studied in the courtroom the mental con
dfnon of Captain Hams on days during h trial Of Thornton Hams, when the
captain did not leave the Jail and was not present at court But tina. fact does
rot necessarily dHcredHt the ahemst Captain Hams may hve remained in tan,
but his intense interest in his brothers trial may have been strong enough to
project his astal body fntot the comfortable front seat in the courtroom where
the observant ahenist made a study of him. This explanation is at least as
~asenabe to the unscienthc mind as the "brain-storm" and other profoundly
earned propositions that have staggered public reduity.
