the shift in real estate tendencies ana

Whether the marketing system on

not typical, for obvious reasons. In

the emperor himself fell back In his

The scene was the Tuilleries. where
the French court lionized its third man

Daniel Douglas Home. born near Edin-
burgh in 1888. His father was Will
liam. natural son of the tenth Earl of
Home.
Second sight" was an alleged ances-
trail gift to Daniel and many weird
phenomena are alleged to have been
connected with his childhood. When
he was about nine an aunt adopted him
and took him to Greenville. Conn. This
was about 1872, but soon afterward he
was turned out Of doors because of dis
turbing raps which appeared in his
aunts home. Then such men as Will
liam Cullen Bryant. Justice Edmonds
of the United States Supreme Court
and Prof. Wells of Harvard took the
young man up and vouched for him. AT

Home is said to have been first levi
tated" into the air by some unknown
force. He grew to be tall and red
haired, with a freckled face. slate-gray
red-rimmed eyes. sharp teeth. a snuh
nose and cold. bony fingers. His body
was described as like an iron cross on
which some one had hung a coat In
deed. he was rather uncanny to look
upon. In 1855, when twenty-five. he
went to England, where he began Civ
ing seances. where there were mysteri.
Gus rappings, table fittings. ghostly ap.
pearances and feats of levitation.
At Bulwer-Lytton's home, kneb-
worth, where he was a guest for days
at time. Home is said to have caused
chairs and tables to float in midair
Here also guests solemnly declared
that they saw the master of the me-
diums" rise and float about the room

Home to Naples, whence he went TO
Rome, there joining the Catholic
Church. being after abjured by ths
Pope to abandon spirit seances forever.
BY 1855 he had established a social
position high to marry Rus
sian countess. a goddaughter OF the
car. and their brilliant wedding
brought Alexander Dumas all of the
way from Paris. But after his young
wife's death. four years later. Home
returned to Rome, where reports of
return of his spirit manifestations
reached the papal authorities, VINO
preferred charges OF sorcery against
him. as In the case of Cagliostro. and
compelled him to return to England
where his seances were continued.
He now handled fire with ease. II
was said. and kneeling before hearth
he would take out a big, glowing coal,
break off a large piece and hold II IN
his hand while discoursing to his audi
ences on his power over solids. Then
he would place the coal upon a FOLDED
newspaper and burn a hole through 4.
But public confidence in Home som--
what abated when one Jane Lyons
sued him for Sl65,0oo, which he claimed
to have obtained from her for COM
munications from her departed hua-
band. and later when a bottle of phos-
phorus was found at one of his seances.
Nevertheless. some of his phenomena
were Endorsed by that celebrated
chemist, Prof. tnow Sir) William
Crookes, whom Home started upon
high road to spiritualism. Crookes sub
mitted the medium to severe labora-
tory tests, such as fastening in S.
cure case an accordion which Home,
| from a distance, caused to play. The
great chemist also arranged to one
| end of his laboratory a sort of letter
scale, with recording point which
marked down every degree of pressure
exerted upon it. Home stood at the
opposite end of the laboratory and. by
exerting what Crookes admitted to be
| only his psychic force caused the
platform of the scale to bear down and
record considerable pressure.
This man of mystery married an
other Russian noblewoman in 1871,
after which he fell into slow con.
sumption. which caused his death in
1856 What was the mystery of his
| psychic force and was 1T partly bona
| fide, as Sir William Crookes still main
\ tains, or was it entirely the result Of
| ingenious fraudulent phenomena not

last year produced about SIS per cent of
the countrys total. possibly would be
so. 900, 900 tons, and that there probably
would be an increase in price of 20 to

An increase of 100000 tons. or 40
per cent, was shown in last years out

of ore shipped increased Al per cent
