What is believed to be the most re-.
markable exhibition of clairvoyant
powers ever demonstrated was wit
messed at q hearing in the court of
general sessions, New York. before
Judge Rosalsky, who, was presiding.
Prof. Bert Reese had been convicted
by magistrate as fortune teller and
had appealed against his conviction.
To prove that he was not faker but
a scientist, the professor volunteered
to give a demonstration in court.
The judge wrote the questions,
What was the ruling in the Shell ley
case?" How much money have ! in
the - bank?" and What Is the
mime of my favorite schoolteacher {"
The demonstration not only told what
the questions were, but informed bis
honor that SIS was in the bank to bis
credit and that his favorite school
teacher was Miss O'Connor. Reese
has given many exhibitions before the
crowned heads of Europe and some of
the worlds greatest scientists. Thorn.
as A. Edison has tried vainly to solve
the secret Of his powers, He says that
the questions and answers fash them
selves on his mind without any effort
on his part. 49, e, * ..
