The aim for which DR.. Sun has

phenomena OF mediums. afs aehiev-
ing some curious results.
Their work thus lar has been con-
lined 10 seances, with Madame Bis
son. a medium, we'll known among
the spiritualists OF western Europe.
Sir Arthur Conan Doyle has had 81,
tings with her. She is one OF the few
mediums reputed TO exude viscous
liquid from their finger tips under
trance conditions.
The professors had been told that
this liquid, dripping onto plain sur
face, took strange forms OF faces.
They have not had that result yet,
but have made other singular discov-
cries. The mediums hands, while in
a trance, were held at some distance
from a table and the liquid dripping
from the finger tips, they said,
formed into slender sticks, some
what after the fashion OF stalactites.
Could Lift Table.
When the union was established
between the finger tips and the table
by means of these slender rods, the
medium could raise the table from
the floor apparently without the cx-
crtion OF any force.
Some of these rods have been ana
lyzed chemically. the professors re-
port, revealing that they contain no
substances not contained in the
human body.

sciences, must not disclose any de-
tails of their findings until their in
