Church and Science Reneu Ancient Feud Aganst

The text of the decree runs as fol
lows:
Whether it is allowable
through a medium, or without a me-
dium, with or without the aid Of hyp-
notlsm, to take part in (odsistereI
splrltlstic conversations or manifesto
tions of any kind, even where they
have the appearance of propriety and
piety, either by making inquiries of
sous or spirits, or listening to their
answers, or merely looking on-even
under the taclt or express protest Of
intending to have nothing to do with
euil spirits The answer is in the
hegatlue, all ro1taad.'
SO far as DR.. Raupert is concerned
and this is the particular point of the
present article-the reality of spirits
tic phenomena is granted. While there
IS fraudulent trickery passed off in
the name of spiritism, nevertheless DR.
Raupert and his school, among whom
are many non-rcligious writer's and
psychologists. admit that "materiali-
zations" of so-called "spirits" do take
place, and that these are unexplaincd ID
by any theory of fraud or delusion
and that other phenomena, such as
automatic writing, ouija board com
munications and the like, are amply
proved facts. All that part of the
spiritistic hypothesis is granted, but
with the spiri'tistic theory or convinced
belief rather that these materializa-
tions. these ouija board messages
these automatic writings and other
forms of communicating with the in.
visible world are the work Of the souls
Of the dead Dr.. Raupert and his col
leagues, together with a rapidly grow
ing number Of other non-religious OBJ
servers, will have absolutely nothing
to do.
They declare that so far no rea,
evidence has been brought forward te
prove the theory that the communicat
ing intelligences are the dsembodiec
souls of the dead. They admit tina
spirits exist; they admit that these
spirits are responsible for the phe
nomena; but they deny that any proc.
has been adduced sufficient to estab
lish the theory that the souls of the
dead control the phenomena. On the
other hand-and here is the centra
point-they claim that instead O.
these so-called messages from tn,
Cead being of kind or of tendency
truly to console the relatives of tn,
dead or to support the view of thos,
who claim for spiritism the VALIDITY
Of religion, they are in reality mani
festatons of an evil force-the worl
of the devil.
The spiritist, of course, cries out
quite shocked in his or her tenderes
beliefs against this view of the matter
Others smile at it and say, But tn,
devil is dead, is he not? Surely h,
died a long time ago, so far as educate,
and progressive modern thought l.
concerned.' To which Dr.. Rauper
and his confreres answer: please ex
anime the evidence. Putting theolog,

BY Paul Bartholow

THE war correspondent for the
French Republic, who has re-
Gently returned from Venice,
relates the following observations upon
the new conditions there. The simple
easy style Of these Impressions shows
us clearly what the invasion has done
in Italy, things which would have been
thought incredible a few years ago.
He describes the splendid performance
of the Italian army in its present
stand. and the infinite preparations
which lie behind the defence of Venice.
Venice to-day is like a city of the
dead. The picture of its canals and
quays shows the absolute removal of
all the usual signs of human habita-
tion. II know nothing sadder at .his
moment writes The correspondent
"than Venice, with threc-fourths Of its
population fled, with its monuments
swathed in sandbags, listening to the
cannon which thunder on the Piave
near by"
The place is not simply deserted. It
has ceased to show any animation be-
yond few stocal citizens, who cluste,
in knots before the railway station in
the evening to read the military bull
lotins, or few British and French Of
fcers, who buy souvenirs in the Piazza
di San Marco. During the day on the
Rialto few women wearing dark
shawls over their heads stragcle in and

nomena. You will quickly become con-
vinced that a transcendental intelli-
gence is certainly manifesting itself
through these phenomena, and you will
also find out that this intelligence is
powerfully evil force. 1t is because
Of the evil which inevitably and
frightfully follows all forms of spiri-
tistic practices that the Catholic
Church officially condemns sucn
practices. And very important
section of modern science supports
the Catholic Church in this vi w of
the matter. however little it may con-
Germ itself the theological rea-
sons which dictate the attitude of
the Church. This growing body of
modern science afhrms the evil of
spiritism and gives warning of the
really terrible dangers which are
consequent upon dabbling in it.
The suggestions which reach the
passive minds of the mediumistic or
sensitive type of spiritistic students
are of an enticingly liberal, "progrcs-
sive' type. "What, after all, is mo-
rality?' "Is not morality often con-
founded with nventionality ?"
Should not each individual freely de-
velop in the way best suited to its
own innate capacity for experience ?"
Were not certain instincts implanted
in us to be gratified ~ Should not the
higher, spiritual law of soul-affinity
supersede, in edvanced souls, the low
cr, purely human law of marriage?"
So run the subtle suggestions which
have made ruin of thousands of hu-
man lives.
Sir William Barrett, one of the most
/ eminent of the scientists who have Sc
riously investigated the subject, puts
the case for the view held by DR.. Rau-
pert In the following remarkable pas
sage: For my own part, it seems not
improbable that the bulk, if not the
whole, of the physical manifestations
witnessed in a spiritual seance are the
product of human-like but not really
human inteilgences-go or bad da-
moAla they may be-which aggregat te
round the medium, as a rule drawn
from that particular plane of mental
and moral development in the unseen
which corresponds to the mental and
moral development Of the medium.
Moreover, if there is any truth
in the view suggested above of a pos
sible source of the purely, physical
manifestations, it seems to me that the
Apostle Paul, in the Epistle to the
Ephesians, points to race of spirit
ual creatures, similar to those | have
described, but of a malignant type,
when he speaks of beings not made of
flesh and blood inha biting the air
around US and able injuriously to af-
feet mankind. Good as we'll as mis-
chievous agencies doubtless exist in
the unseen; this, of course. is equally
true if the phenomena are due to those
who have once lived upon the earth
In any case, granting the existence of
spiritual world, it is necessary to be
on our guard against the invasion of
our will by a lower order of intelli-

vcals to vivid imagination what the
Rlalto market was before the invasion
came and destroyed its soothing cheer

thanks to the forethought and care of
the government. The Italian Food
Controller has evidently provided for
the Venetians who remain, but they

Adriatic coast, for the fishermen have

Speech Of Wilson Interpreted As
Message To Mexioans

WASHINGTON, June 8-(Associated
Press Blame for present relations
between Mexico and the United States
which are admittedly somewhat strain
ed, is placed by President Wilson upon
German propagandists and a speech
which he made to party of Mexican
editors has been cabled to Mexico for
publication there. II may have the

President Wilson received the dele
CATION of visiting Mexican editors at
the White House yesterday and the sub
ject Of international relations was
freely discussed. President Wilson ex-
pressed his views relative to German
propagandists and their efforts plain;
ly and clearly. Referring to past re-
lations he indicated he was not proud
Of the history that was made in the
relations of the two close neighbors.
The Presidents speech was not made
public here as it was evidently inter
preted as a message to the people OF
