death is NOT PAINFUL. BUT A
PLEASANT PROCESS, Sir ARTHUR
CONAN DOYLE SAYS In ADDRESS
(BY THE AssOt1ATED PRESS,

New Y Ork, April 10 Coy the AS
ISOLATED Press. Sir Arthur Conan
Doyle last night described the SEN
sation of the death bed as he said
they had been communicated to
him from beyond the Styx.
Listening to him was vast audi
ence, which filled Carnegie hall.
many of whose members soon will
board Charon's craft for the voyage
which all must take. Palsied
heads shook with emotion as the
earnest words fell from the lips of
a man who has turned from medi-
cine and letters to a search for the
spiritual.
Death is not painful, but pleas
ant process, Sir Arthur said. AS
death approaches, the soul-the
etheric body-floats out from its
earthly shell, and hovers above the
human clay, tethered only by the
silver cord of which ecclesiastics
speak. The only sensation is one
of delicious languor.
Smiling Faces.
The first sight that greets the
eye is one of smiling, loving faces
bending over the deathbed, con-
tinued Sir Arthur.
"Proof?" He asked, ~ have
stood by the side of the dying, seen
hands turning cold in death stretch
out, heard words of endearment
fall from lips that soon would
move no more. Delirium, say ma
teralists. No, it is not delirium."

spiritualism again. THE disengag-
ing of the etheric body can be, has

as that not good evidence?" he
asked.
The tense silence was broken, as
the audience, obviously in sympathy
with the doctrines of Sir Arthur,
broke into prolonged applause.
Throughout the lecture-the first
which Sir Arthur has given since
he came to America last sunday to
raise funds for propagation Of =
gospel which he said was the be-
ginning Of a new religion for the
human race--though not designed
to displace the old. His hearers

Describes Conversion.
He described at length his con-
version from a rank materialist to
such faith in spiritualism that he
had decided that his wife, his fam
lily, his reputation as a man of let
tiers were but mud In the gutter
beside it.
His qualifications. he said, were

scientific point of view.t and what

Business Topics

Chester, Pa, Feb 2O.-Hundreds
of homeseekers spent Sunday here
inspecting the houses and apart
ments in Buckman Village, built
by the government to house work
ers in the shipyards during the
war These homes will be sold at
auction on March Is by the United
States shipping board under the
direction of Joseph p. Day of New
York. Many of those who failed
to secure homes at the sales OF
similar dwellings at Bristol and
Camden are expected to bid in the
Buchanan sale.
Detroit, Mich, Feb. 20.-Easier
money conditions are beginning to
appear in the agricultural sections
of Michigan. Many of the country
banks have paid off their indebted
ness to Detroit banks but are max
ing inquiries about securing funds
around April l when they expect
to need a large amount. The De
troit Edison company is preparing
to spend 100000 in additional
equipment and betterments. Many
orders for additional light and

on Liberty bonds. This viewpoint
has recently been expressed at the
White house too. But even grant
ing that the proceeds from the al
lied payments are applied TO pay
interest on Liberty bonds, the ad-
vocates of q bonus insist that the
United States government will then
have available from direct taxation
the sums which now are being
raised to pay interest on public
debt, something like $500 600, 600
yearly If the allied payments re-
cCce that amount, for example, by
$500, 900 900 annually. there will be
an equivalent sum available from
direct taxation wherewith the
bonds might be paid.
The end of the bonus problem is
not in sight Schemes galore are
fiourishing in the gossip of con-
gress Sslal cloakrooms. President
Harding stands committed to the
payment OF a bonus sometime. He
insists that he has hitherto favored
but that he did not believe last
August or this year the right time
to burden the treasury with it, He
holds out hope for the future and
promises faithfully to sign bonus
bill il the means of paying interest
on their debt some of that fund
viii be used directly or indirectly
as basis for bonus payments.

Use TO use any funds received from
allied payments as a basis for pay
ing the soldier bonus, the reason
given was simply that no one knew
at the moment how much was
Forthcoming. If the plan. therefore,
to postpone indefinitely the enact
ment of a bill providing for the
bonus is accepted, the measure will
crop up again Just as soon as there
are any available funds from any
source.
The only money due the United
States government aside from tax
alton and import duties is interest
and principal on foreign loans The
allies thus far have believed the
United States would not press for
payment. The demands of the sol
diers for bonus may become a
leverage behind which the Amer
lean debt commission will operate
in its efforts to persuade the allies
that Reputation or cancellation of
the debt is unthinkable.
Opinion Divided.
Opinion Is OF course divided as
to whether it would be just to use
the proceeds from the allied debt
to pay a bonus. The original law
whereby the Liberty loans were
raised provided that the first mon
eys received from the allies should
go toward the payment of interest

fact that this trend is apparent in
February gives hopes for much bet
ter trade a month or two hence
when the normal spring impetus
will help it along.
Sales at retail during the last
year have been far above production
and the point apparently has been
reached where jobbers and retail
ers must order from manufacturers
to replace the goods they are SELL
ing.
1t is considered almost certain
that the cotton mills throughout
New England which have not al
ready cut wages Of employees will
do so before many weeks elapse.
Manufacturers in New Bedford and
Fall River are apparently awaiting
the outcome of the strikes in Rhodt
Island, New Hampshire and north
ern Massachusetts but they arrest
that the lower wages and longer
working hours that prevail in the
mills of the south make it neces-
sary sor the New England manufac-
turers to bring their working forces
into line. The strikes have had
little effect on the cotton goods mar
ket other than to intensity the exist
| ing dizziness.
