minded attributing him to the over
wrought imagination of one OF the
party on the lawn, due to the excite
ment of the event. and suggesting that
through hypnotic suggestion all were
made to believe they saw the same
things he imagined he did-such
things being by no means impossible
among half.hysterical people, Only
the Adventists accepted him seriously,
they being convinced that he was
personal representative of the Deity.
AS to those who had really seen him
and had announced the fact, they a.
first grew indignant beneath the storm
of doubt and ridicule which assailed
them. then realizing the futility of
further assertion closed their mouths
In silent contempt.
1t was on the second day after the
eventful night that Desmond, now IA
nous throughout the world for his dis
covery and announcement, yet chatting
that his sanity should be questioned
on the subject Of the Flying Man who
had given him such an ugly wound.
conceived an idea which he immedi-
ately proceeded to put into secret ex-
ecution. In company with two cele.
brated analytical chemists, he pro-
ceeded to the Fulton home and with
his knife cut several blood-stained
shayings from the steps where the
Flying Man had stood for an instant
bleeding from the wounds inflicted by
Clay's weapon. These thin slices of
wood they conveyed to laboratory,
where with microscope and chemicals
they subjected them to a thorough
examination and analysis. At the end
Of the tests DR.. Johns, famous through
out the land as chemical analyst
of body fluids, submitted his report,
which was indorsed in every respect
by his scarcely less famous colleague.
The report stated that they had sub
jected the stains to every known test
and the results were absolute and
scientifically incontrovertible. The
stains were made by blood. yet the
chemical reaction obtained by the
tests were different from those re
sulting from the blood test of any ami
NAL heretofore known. All animals
up to this time had been classed ell
ther as warm or cold blooded, the
blood OF one Of the latter, a frog OF
a snake for instance, being very dis
similar to that from one of the for
mer, say chicken or dog, whose vi
tai iiuid-being warm-much more
closely resembled the blood Of man
