ETY..
The stories were told by George
Spriggs, at one time spiritualistic
medium, and now the president of the
Psyche Therapeutic society. Every
story, he said, was well authenticated
His own conviction was that spirit
communion Is not only possibility,
but an actual and realized fact
On one occasion, he said a seance
was held round table at the resi-
dence of Rees Lewis of Cardiff. All
the "sitters," including Father Butch
er, priest, and Rev. David Jones,
kept their hands on the top of the ia,
ble In about five minutes raps were
heard, and on looking under the table
there we're found small lunches OF
grapes, branch from an apple tree
one from a pear tree, lunches OF
wheat and barley and some peas, One
Of the reverend gentlemen exclaimed:
This is as near miracle as possi
ble."
Describing some of his experiences
in Melbourne, Mr.. Spriggs said that al

Weighing machines were used tc
ascertain the distinguishing features
between the medium and the material

had lost about three pounds In
weight" The first spirit form who
stepped on the scales turned the beaII
at 100 pounds, but subsided SO rapidly
In weight as to prevent successive
record being taken. Indeed, failing tt
turn the scale at SO pounds, he hur
riedly retreated. Returning again. his
weight was registered at 104 pounds

Doctor Mueller. who was present
distinctly felt the pulsation Of the

the beating Of the heart to be quite
natural.
One of the "sitters" contrived tc
smear his hands with printers Ink be
fore grasping that of the materializet
form. When the medium was exam
insd. however. the skeptic was griev
ously disappointed to find no traces
whatever Of the ink which he had Inn
pressed upon the hand Of the form.

young mining engineer, who was a
member of Borax lake expedition In
which Charles Stracher Davidson, a
graduate of the University of Califor-
MIA Mining college, lost his life in the
intense heat recently, has returned to

said Masters. 1.-THE lake is mud de-

objective point was IN old camp on
the opposite shore, where we believed
we would find prospectors. When we
began drawing our line Davidson was
prostrated with the heat. which was
terrific. A little later he collapsed.
Then he broke from us, and, running
about fifty feet, fell on his face. One
of the boys went back to him. He
died shortly afterward.
"One by one we followed course
toward the opposite shore. When l
arrived discovered that there was no
water. After several hours we found
an old well. but the water was sui
phurous and salty and at the bottom
was o dead rattlssnake. Two Of the
