The fascination for adventures upon
the borderland of the unseen continues
to enthrall scientific men of certain
temperament, who look for d1scov-
cries where others assert that in the
nature OF things there must ever be
mystery. A number OF young ste
nographers and typewriters in Boston
have volunteered for experiments by
professors at the Carnegie laboratory
who entertain hopes of throwing some
light upon the union of the body and
the soul as well as OF discovering i'm
proved methods OF treating certain
diseases now considered incurabIe.
The line of observation Is expected to
demonstrate to hairs breadth the
value of mental healing. 1t will be
interesting to watch for these investt-
gators report. They may make use
full discoveries, If not those in search
OF which they have set out.

The first cool days Of the waning
summer are always attended by tinan-
cial losses, which, instead of arousing
sympathy, provoke smiles OF derision.
These particular losses result from
making use of the parlor or sitting
room stove as bank, in which hard
earned savings, or hard-earned earn
ings, are deposited from time to time
by the head of the household. General
~ the reason for this method is fear
on the part of the hoarder that 1t
would be running too great risk to
ertrust the savings to regularly es-
tablished and responsible bank. But,
be the reason what 1t may, the savings
from the garden truck, eggs, poultry
and other produce are secreted in the
stove as the most unlikely place to be
inspected by thieves, and in due time
a snug little sum Is accumulated,
says the Pittsburg Chronicle-Tele-
graph. By and by cool day comes
along, and fire is started in the stove,
and the cash goes up in smoke before
1t occurs to the depositor that he has
unintentionally robbed himself Then
comes the usual frenzied search OF the
ashes, followed by the usual tearing
out Of hair by the handfu!s.

DEATH TAKES CHICAGO Ex-BANK
Err EIGHT DAYS AFTER GAIN
ING FREEDOM.
HOPED TO GET NEW START
Family Is at Bedside of Man Who Up
to End Fought to Fecuperate His
Finances and Again Become Fac
tor In Financial World.

Chicago.-Eight days after his pa
role from Leavenworth prison, John
R. Walsh, the former banker, died at
his residence in this city The certiti-
cate ascribes his death to heart fail
ure.
Just before he was attacked he had
been going over some of his papers,
seking way to regain his foothoId
in the Chicago world of finance. Most
of the papers in his home were re-
ceipts for the 100000 he had turned
over to his creditors in an effort to
pay their claims, and save himself the
disgrace of prison sentence.
When Mr.. Walsh left Leavenworth
prison he vowed that he would re-
cuperate his finances and again be-
come a factor in the financial world.
but an old mans heart refused to do
the bidding of young mans ambi-
tion
The new lease Of life which was
given him on October Is, was broken
after a night of strenuous battle
in which his pulse at one time
beat only six times a minute. and
when the rally started arose to twelve
beats minute and was finally brought
to normal
The last words of Mr.. Walsh as he
attack related to his possibility OF
fighting the battle of finance. When
his pulse gained nomal he gained
consciousness and asked why DR..
Frank Billings was there. He realized
the Importance Of the visit and said:
81 guess Pm pretty bad. won't be
able to make the fight"
He then fell into a state of uncon-
seriousness from which he did not
awaken. The entire family was pres
ent when he died
Advertisements or the hardening of
the arteries was the correct medical
term for the cause of his death, and it
Is said by the physicians that attend
ed him that 1t was only his will power
that enabled him to live until he was
liberated from Leavenworth.
He refused to sleep any more than
was actually necessary while at the
prison, and on several occasions told
his attorney that he dared not lie
down for fear he would not get up.
Before the collapse of the Chicago
National bank, the Equitable Trust
company and the Home Savings bank.
John R. Walsh was interested in many
