OF mOSCOW, NuSSld.
Baron Fersen. = scientist of inter-
national fame, 10 well known in
Washington. where he has recruited
large following. He has returned
after q tour Of the United States and
attracted nation wide interest through
''scientinc experiments made with the
human soul" at stanford University,
California.
WILL GIVE TWO LECTURES.
Baron Fcrsen will give two lee
lures In washington next week. He
declared today he Is making prepara-
tions to conduct several experiments
of more than passing interest.
One experiment TO be made here.
Baron Fsrsen said. will surpass In
importance the one made at Stanford
University when the soul of Arthur
Bragg, freshman student. was
taken on q flight to the "gates of
paradise" As well As to the four cor
ners Of the earth. The experiment
was made before an assembly OF the
leading psychologists of the Pacific
coast and the faculty of the univer-
sity.

Baron makes a marked impression.
He chats freely with q slight accent
and impresses with the serious trend
Of his mind ~
make 1t plain please that am not
4 religious teacher" he tells his inter-
viewers when the subject has been
launched II am essantially . sci-
enlist and my purposcs are purely
scientific: MY teaching-If they may
be called such are the teachings OF
the harmony of life--the Triune HAr-
montai System az ! call 1t.
Humanity is not satisfied with
speculation as to the hereafter and
demands q science Of living tangible
and workable to everyday life. which
Will result in harmonious existence,
harmonious with ourselves and har-
monious with our fellowman."
What IL of even more interest to
him and of more benefit to humanity
asserted the baron. Ia his system OF
vibntory science, which he has been
evolving since he was fifteen yesrs
OF age and while living in the vicin-
ity of Moscow. He was born In what
is known rs Petrograd today. and
his people were of the nobility. Be-
cause as he says he IL a scientist
and not q politician" the baron
eschews things politically and even
. discussion Of conditions in his ma
tive land today.
NOT INTERESTED IN LODGE.
In the spiritualistic-the theories
o: Sir Oliver Lodge and others the
Baron has little interest while 1t
may be and is true that Sir Oliver
Lodge has been able to bring to-
gether families separated by death,
II means but little At best" said
the Baron.
4 know the realm of which Sir OIL
yer speaks, for investigated II
years ago. I lost interest in IL, how
ever, for I discovered that there are
more liars on the other side than
there are here; the spirit-,ife seems
to sccentuate the bad traits OF hu-
mans when they are transplanted to
the world beyond this. Hence. II Is
like blindfolding oneself and starting
down an unknown road at night to
travel In the realm Of mortals who
have gone to the spirit world. as it is
commonly known. You get no good
results; you learn little. do not
deny what Sir Oliver says, but dis
count its value to the race"
What the world needs said the bar
on, Is an application OF his scientific
vibration plan. 1t Is something that
at present, may be obtained only
through his fundamentally, or from
teachers whom he il graduating from
time to time, as In Seattle the other
day, when a class was finished.
Again speaking Of his experiment
on the Student Bragg at Stanford
University the Baron declared that
ne carried Brags's "sour' to the bed
side of his sick father in Chicago
and that during another part OF the
experiment the student told the au-
dience OF seeing angels In heaven
and similar wonders that enthrailed
his listeners.
Such experiments cannot be carried
