pendent Service to Houston
From Quaker Port.

Southern Pacific railroad steamship
lines which now render service be-
tween Galveston and New Orleans and
New York may increase sailings, the
Interstate Commerce Commission de-
cided today. to provide water trans
portation between nearly all New
England ports and ports on the Gulf
o. Mexico west of New Orleans with
out violating interstate commerce
laws.
Increased service, the commission
Ield, will be of advantage to COM
Inerce, and will not tend to exclude
competition of Independent water
lines. The right TO maintain line
between Houston, Tex. and Philadel-
phfa, however, was refused by the
commission on the ground that inde-

Data Must Be Submitted.
All rates, sailing schedules and
regulations of the Atlantic Steamship
ines, the Southern Pacific subsidiary
which will operate the projected serV-
ice, must be submitted to the COM
mission before becoming effective.
The decision resulted from tho ap-
p.ication OF the Southern Pacific as
:. rail and water carrier for pernls-
sion TO extend the scope of its steam :
ship operations, which are under the
jurisdiction Of the commission. An
issue as to the legality of railroad

though the majority or the comnls-
sion held that authority TO do this
could be given the Southern Paclhc
commissioners Eastman, Campbell

TELLS OF HIS MESSAGES
FROM THE SPIRIT WORLD
Rev. G. Vale Owen Speaks Of a
Faith That Dispels Fear of Death
and Consoles the Bereaved.

The bitterness and sadness Of being
parted from loved ones does not exist
in the minds of believers in spiritual
ism. This declaration was made yes
terday afternoon at the National
Theater by Rev. G.. Vale Owen, Eng
lish clergyman. and co-investigator
of the spirit realms along with Sir
oliver Lodge, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
and other eminent Englishmen.
Rev. Mr.. owen IS still connected
with the Church of England. but has
for nearly thirty years been strong
believer in phychic phenomena. He
is conducting a lecture tour through
out the United States, and made his
only scheduled appearance at the Ma
tional yesterday. 1t was noticed that
audience present who were clad in
deep mourning, and many others IN
Semi 1t was to these, who
evidenced the recent loss of some
loved one. that the clergyman's lee
ture seemed most appealing.
The lecturer divided his address
into the various stages of communi-
cation from departed spirits. He
explained the knocking, the voice,
spirit photography, the materializa-
and automatic writing. Each one he
explained and cited from the Bible
4 similar happening. As an example,
he told the story of the child. Sam
ueL who awoke one night thinking
that he heard his father, Eli. calling.
Eli told Samuel that he had not
called, but that If the voice came
again to say, Lord. here am t. He
also cited David drawing the plans
of the temple, which was later built
by Solomon. These plans were drawn
by David, but under the guiding hand
of God, the clergyman stated.
Mr.. Owen stated that the spirit that
has returned to earth in making the
man if.a fat rhor i
cles or atoms from the air and forms
them into the shape of a body, or ar
ranges them into a throat from which
a voice can be heard. In reality they
are a magnetic emanation. he declared.
He asserted that he had been in direct
communication with hundreds Of per-
sons. including his father and mother,
who had passed beyond, and his little
daughter. Ruby, who died a few years
after birth. He gave graphic instances
of their return. and related messages
they had brought him.
From the messages I have receiv-
ed, | know that every one who has
passed from this life is about the
same age the lecturer said. The
young who die reach maturity, and
the old who die again grow young.
All infirmities pass away. Death is
only short, sweet sleep"
In speaking Of the British soldiers
who saw the battalions in the sky
at the retreat from the Marne, Rev
Mr.. Owen liked the happening to the
Israelites. who saw vast armies and
chariots in the air fighting for them
'Spiritualism," he continued, helps
one to bear up under the trials of
this life. it dispels the fear of death.
and brings happiness to those who
have lost some one by death. The
trouble with too many persons is that
they think their religion is taking
them TO heaven. the best.Way We all
get there. Just lead Il humble. faith
full life. trying to do what good we
can. That is all that is necessary
