if such it is, is new. The unubridgc
dictionaries of only a few years an
did not even contain tlie word "tel<
pathy." Still it is older tlian wireles
telegraphy; which it resembles i
sonic respects, but is far more wondei
ful. Some sort of reasonable and it
telligible explanation can be given i
the Marconi system of wireless me!
sages between distant points, lit
there is no explanation for this kin
of communication. That the far
exists cannot be questioned. All w
can say is, as Hamlet said to Iloratn
"There are more things in heave
and earth than are dreamed of in yoi
philosophy."
Every man may be his own telt
, phone. This is the amazing declar:
tion made by the believers in teh
pathy, which may be descrilied as tli
wireless telegraphy of the mind. S
William Cruokcs has recently startle
the scientists of the world by decla
ing that it may be possilile to sen
thoughts across the Atlantic ocean c
around the world without either eabh
or the apparatus of Ma*coni.
"Is it inconceivable,"said he. "tlm

a message of thought mav go st raigl
to its goal without loss of energy du
to distance? May not the words 'fa
and 'near' lose their meaning in thej
subtle regions of unsulistanti:
thought? 1 dare to suggest it."
This is the opinion of Sir Williai
Crookes, the inventor of the Crooki
tube, which made the X-rav nossilil<
the president of the British Associ:
tion of Scientists, the "king of cheu
ists" and hero of many a scientific e:
ploit. Telepathy, this new and my:
terlous power of the human mind,
not difficult to understand.
Dr. U. Osgood Mason, fellow of tl
New York Acadeny of Medicine, say
"There arc fortunate individuals ti

On the morning of the 25th day of

Mrs. George McWhirter of that city

a hand upon her forehead ? whioh
she took to t<e the hand of a diad

i. dead.'' Her futher waa living In
Union, und when she last heard from
him previous to this time he was In

she was again asleep, and precisely
i the same message came to her in the

perlencc was repeated a third lime,

j ?'d that her father was dead?had no

s j her out of what he called "supersti- j

She said: "It is true I have no

"Your father dropped dead this mom,f

in The human family contains a good
ig many hyenas, and in the front rank
stands Jacob Kaufman, a New Yorker,
if He has not only been a thief, but a
't specialist in crime, and his victims
i were always widows. He made it his
n business to secure the acquantancc of
te women who had lust their husbands
a and collected insurance money. He
i- preferred widows with children, because
they were more helpless. The
e- woman who is left with a family and
ic a few paltry dollars in money often
w marries for a home for the sake of her
children. Kaufman knew it. and
1- counted his victims by thedozen. lie
in didn't marry them, lie seemed to
f- have a horror of bigamy, but no serur
pies about lyintf and thieving, lie
'e made children love him. and women,
i- too. He was to he the protector in at
least 24 homes that the ponce knew
of. Sometimes lie borrowed money
and then disappeared. A^ain he
is learned its hiding place and stole it.

Asked to name the plcusnntcst in-1

dies. Secretary of the Navy Moody I
upon his return to Washington replied
with a smile of genuine satisfaction: i
"1 recall nothing that was so in-j
spiring, ho splendid, as that incident
in llabana harbor when the men of;
the Dolphin came to the rescue of a !
party of Cuban sailors whose Imat capsized
in the squall. i'he spontaneity
of their action was tine, hut finer still
was their presentation of the $100 reward
ifiveil them by President l'alma
to the mother of one the drowned
sailors."
Interesting details of the gallant ry
of tiie Dolphin's crew are contained
in a letter received at the navy department
Thursday fr<>in Lieut. Commander
(*. M. Stoney, who, by the
way, is a South Carolinian, commanding
that vessel. In this letter, which
is dated at sea April II, Commander
Stoney says:
"1 have the honor to call your attention
to the worthy conduct of the

gallant conduct of Chief boatswain s

showed great professional skill in re- (

"The violence of the squall can be {
better understood from the fact t hat a
number of other boats were capsized
in the harbor. The velocity of the
wind was reported at no miles an
