The petition recites that DR.. Hubbell
had implicit faith in Mrs. Hirons until
about sixty days ago, when. it is charged.
he overheard her say to a neiehbor that
she had given up all thought of memo
rial to Clara Barton and that she was not
worthy of it."
DR.. Hubbell asserts in the bill that he
was so shocked and upset by the remark he
claims to have heard that he was unable
for long time to collect the data neces-
sary to institute the suit. The plaintiff is
native of the West and became &C
quainted with Clara Barton through his
Red Cross activities. He was at one time
chief of the medical staff of the organiza-
ton. 1t is stated in the petition that Miss
Barton also was believer in spiritualism.

Sues For Money Says Woman Got
By Spirits Help.

Dr. Julian B. HubGell. former secretary
to Clara Barton, founder Of the American
Red Cross, last Saturday filed suit in the
Circuit Court here to recover from Mrs.
Maybele Rawson Hirons. who was an in
innate friend of Miss Barton. property,
cash and bonds valued $4,000. which, he
claims, he turned over to Mrs. Hirons under
the influence of messages from the spirit
of Miss Barton.
Judge Edward C. Peter signed an order
temporarily restraining Mrs. Hirons from
disposing of any of the property mentioned
in the proceedings.
The bill of complaint sets forth that DIR.
Hubbell for many years cherished hope
to change the practice of medicine so that
physicians would regard it their duty to
keep the well in health as well as to heal
the sick. His one great ambition. next to
changing the practice Of medicine. was to
establish a suitable memorial to Clara
Barton, whom he served as secretary for
thirty years, the bill continues.
1t is set forth that when Miss Barton
died in 1912, DIR. Hubbell owned real estate
at Glen Echo valued at $4,000. costly
household furniture and a claim against
the town of Glen Echo for $4,000. The
! bill of complaint alleges that early in May,
1914. Mrs. fiirons visited the Hubbell home
at Glen Echo and expressed much interest
in the memorial project.
1t is charged in the petition that on this
occasion Mrs. HirOns simulated a trance,
during which she claimed to have estab-
lished communication with the spirit OF
Miss Barton. According to the bill of COM
plant, Mrs. Hirons said the spirit of Clara
Barton directed her to tell DR.. Hubbell that
she Mrs. Hirons) had come to help him
carry out his plans for the MEMORIAL.
It is further alleged that Mrs. Hirons
told the doctor II was the wish OF Miss
Bartons spirit that he turn over his prop
erty to Mrs. Hirons in order TO secure heI
co-operation in the memorial undertaking
Continuing. the petition sets forth thai
DIR. Hubbell was much affected by the
death Of Miss Barton and was greatly in
fluenced by any communication received
by him purportine to come from his de-
ceased friend. Dr. Hubbell believes. &C
cording to his petition. that 1t is possible
for departed spirits to hold communication
with their friends in this world through Ger
tain persons denominated as mediums.
The petition states that because Of hi
devotion to Miss Barton and the professe'
devotion Of Mrs. Hirons to Miss Barton
Mrs. Hirons acquired and exercised con
trolling influence over him and he accepte'
the communications as coming from Mis-
Barton.
On May ID, 1914, in accordance with tn
SUGGESTIONS and requests made In the al
legged spirit messages, the petition state
that he conveyed to Mrs. Hirons the Gle
Echo real estate. $4,000 received by hir
under Miss Barton's will, $4,000 borrowe

MEXICO GIRL SANG
FOR GEN.. PERSH|NG

General John ]. Pershing proved
himself a regular, honest-to-goodness
military hero when the thirty Chris
tian College girls who sang for the
banquet in his honor in Columbia
Tuesday circled around the Generals
table singing "Johnnie's In Town"
The general caught and kissed the
hand of Miss Mary Hatton, undoubt-
eddy the proudest girl in Columbia to-
day.
He smiled and heartily applauded
when the girls sang, "How do you
do, General Crowder" and Missouri
songs. The honor for Miss Hatton
was too much for the other twenty
nine of the chorus. The only inter-
ruption of the Generals evening was
a telegram brought to him after this
song. 1t read: "a great commander
shows no partiality-The girls"
The General laughed heartily at the
message and announced that it was to
be n of his priced souvenirs of Col
umbia. Miss Marcena johnson,
daughter of Mr.. and Mrs. ]. T. john
son, of this city, was one of the young
ladies who sang for the General.
