Tailing With Friends in the Spirit World Through a Trumpet. "KOIAKKABLE SLATE WRITINGS GIVEX tppraAL coRnESPOXDnscE or oisprni.1 Lima- Dam-- X. Y., Aiis;. 21. Miss "Maggie Gaule, the platform test medium, u iio publicly calls spirits by name and in tiodtices them to tlicir friends ia the audi ence, left on Thursdar for her home in Bal timore. Notwithstanding the open-mouthed otnrihmcnt with which her tcMs were re garded, one single case of intelligent table rapping in a private parlor with three or four good friends present would do more to convince an honest, intelligent skeptic than the hundreds of introductions of spirit friends to earthly relatives by a test medium, unless ot a different character than my I have been able to discover. "When MUs Gaule comes upon the plat form she begins in this way, after passint; her hands over her eyes: "Oh, I seem to tee so many spirits in this part of the room" (pointing to some particular spot), "and one goe up to that gentleman i ith his face on his hands and says," etc. lleing interested in knowing how a spirit looks and sounds, vour correspondent had a talk vith the medium in reference to this part of the subject. Following is the interview: CBAit.vcrr.it or a sriRrr. "Miss Gaule, on the platform you say I see a spirit: won't you please describe as clearly as you can what the appearance of a tpirit'is?" "Yes, sir: it looks just like a person in the llesh, ecept that sometimes a part of the body inav seem like a mist ami be indis tinct, if a body ha. been minified the ap pearance of the spirit may indicate it." "When you hear a spirit t-peak, 'clairau diently', as you call it. how does the voice Eonntl'to voii? Is it a real sound or rather an impression. Un. it is a real sound ana seems jut as if the voice came from a person in this life. "Sometime you av the spirit seems to he that of one tthohas passed out but rc cutlv or a Jong time ago as the cae ma' be. Xou, what distinguishes the one that yasccd oerears aeo irom the one that recently cros-ed over?" "Tho"e that have but recently passed oer are neak and can hardly "manifest themselves. "How do they appear to be clothed? In the dress that they were buried in? Do they come in (.hrouds?" "No, not to me; though they appear to some mediums in shrouds. They ha e come to me and said: 'Do you know this old dress that you saw many years ago?' " "When a spirit desires jou to speak to some one for it how doesit make the fact known?" "It comes up to me. and with both voice and gesture makes the desire known. II EU SMltlT CON-JfECTIOJTR. As the subject seemed to be one upon vhich the lady did not seem anxious to con er-e the conversation was changed. She has teeral controls in the spirit world, one a negro, tinder whose control she does not v ish to pass unless amontr but few nersonR. One evening, however, while sitting on the riagc uiiiinu suiue interesting penormances, her hands and feet suddenly began toflv un til her heels on the floor sounded like a clog dancer. She then came to the front of the stage and made a verv good little speech in negro dialect. "When the trance passed off sue seemea very mucn asliamed and tried to conceal herself behind those on the plat lorm. She, like many other mediums, claim so have control that they sometimes cannot resist, but are obliged to talk, sing or dance at the pleasure of their spirit guide. Mrs. Dr. See has several controls; one the "Empress Josephine; another Jenny Lind. Tndcr the Empress she is developing for a speaker and under Jennie Lind's tutelage she hopes to make a vocalist. She declares that once the Empress came to her to show the style of dress she desired her to wear, and at other times, while sitting in a circle, her rings would be removed as an indica tion that the Empress did not desire her to wear jewelry. In answer to the query about spirits appearing so far away from where they passed their earthy lile, they saythat time and space are not barriers against spiritual presence, any more than tliey ate atraiust thought. XO SPIKIT PERFECTION. Spiritualists maintain that all is not per fection on the spirit side, any more than it is over her; that we enter the future with our bad dispositions, low desires etc., and that they are cast off only by the progres kion thai all there can make. It is claimed tluu spirits over there may even write false communications on slates, fjive wrong im pressions through table-tipping, etc, Eor example, a Mcadville gentleman says that one dav his planchettc, through spirit control, informed him that his son, who wasplajing ball in l'ittsburg, had broken liis arm He went to the telegraph office, and learned that some spirit that liad not yet forgotten a common earthlv fault had oeccicd him. There are other instances in -v. Inch it seems that spirits do play tricks upon each other, or else that progression is hcmetimes backward. For example, a prominent lawer of Pennsylvania, who is a spiritualist, tells me the following: lie addressed a question to an old friend in the spirit land, who in his earthly life was very choice in his language; a prominent mem ber of the Presbyterian Church, whom he had never known to utter an oath or a word ol slang. He addressed him as follows: "Deas rniKND M. Are you in heaven?" Koon the writing was heard on the slates, and when it ceased the lawyer was surprised to find this answ er: "Dkai: Ekiksij E. Of course I am in heaven. If I am not in heaven, where in am 1?" VAr.ir.Tv of aiEDiuMsmr. There arc many different phases of me diuiuship, each having their own peculiar phenomena to pro e that spirits do return. There are three or lour materializing me diums where the forms of loved ones are de clared to appear and talk with their friends and then vanish out of sijiht, going back Into the cabinet, or as sometimes is taid to he the case, gradually dissolving and disap pearing. Some spiritualists are satisfied v ith no other phenomena but these, while others do not belie e in them at alL The largest clas of mediums aie the ones who sit among those who wish to learn of the beyond in a room in a circle, holding one another's hands. These circles are E-ualll In Id in a darkened room. After Ml tin some time, the medium goes into a trance condition and proceeds to tell those present w liat spirits are wishing to speak to them. Some wonderful revelations are made, if we mav believe those who receive the tests. Vour correspondent has thus far been obliged to content himself with hear ing others get satisfactory evidence. There are two trumpet mediums in the camp. I have visited but one, though I am pi omised a sitting with the other, who is willing to take Ins ti umpet and go to your own room and hold the seance. Thin looks fair, and I am anticipating with pleasure a trial of his pow ers. In the case of the one 1 have already visited, nearlv all present bad the pleasure of talking with their spirit friend '-ju a horn." A TIN HOKN TEST. There were, perhaps 20 persons seated around a room about 12 feet square. Two tin horns, abut three feet long, were stood on the floor in the middle of the room and the medium took her place between two gen tlemen, who bat close enough to know whether sh made anv demonstration or not The lisht vai thn blown out and evcry-bo-K i, li in uo'se'L-n Kirvptinn darkness. After singing "Nearer, 3Iy God, to Thee," j ami oincr om iiyiiuis, an occasional jiv" could be seen in different parts of the room. Some declared they could see forms; some stars, and others nothing but the blackness of darkness. "We sit awhile longer await ing the pleasure of the spirits, and soon dif ferent persons in the room were touched on the head, face or hands by something which eluded our grasp. Presently a whisper was heard, and listening closely, it could be heard naming someone iu the room. This person had the call to the spirit telephone and the conver sation was carried on with the spirit, which which gae its name with more or lesssatis factioiC All in the room could hear what was said in most cases. "When the conver sation was finished with one, another would be called, until nearlv all in the room, ex cepting lour or live s"keptics, had been ena bled to talk with someone calling itself by the name of some of their dead friends. At one time quite a strong voice, with a rich German accent, was heard, and after asking several in the room, "hprechen sie Deutsen.' it fettled down on a Methodist minister, who talked German, and they had a very interesting and humorous talk." The minis ter also sane a German ballad acd the spirit German joined in and carried both words and tune throughout. This spirit had no rela tives present, but frequently comes into this medium's seances. She "says he has been in spirit land 60 or 70 years. THANKS ritOM A SPIRIT. After nearly all present had been given a chance to talk a spirit came and, thanking the friends for their presence and hoping they were satisfied, dismissed the seance. One thing I should have mentioned, is the fact that a colored minister was present, earnestly seeking for light. -Finally he had a call, but for some time could not get the name of the spirit. At last he asked if it was his grandfather and the spirit said "Yes." "Well, now," said the colored brother, "some sav that mv jrraudfather was Scotch- Irish audi should like very much to know the truth." The grandfather was evidently ashamed of his grandson and w ould speak no more. The only thing I could ask to call this a good test is lieht. "When a man is pcr- initted to ue his eyes as well as his ears he is more willing to trust what presents itself as truth to both senses. It was a very uz7ling exhibition to a doubter, for I got possession of one of the trumpets, and that, at the end of a long arm, was sufficient to sweep the space inside the circle, and yet nothing could be touched, and the medium would even tell when the voices were com ing through the horn Spiritualists present did not have the slightest doubt that the voices were all that they professed to be those from persons in the spirit world. woxnEErn. slate avkitixc. Some remarkable slate writings are pro duced almost daily. On Tuesday Mrs. Mulhauser, whose home is in Cleveland, went before Slate "Writer Mansfield and wanted an oil painting on a slate. They sat for some time, and the cutting noise of the pencil kept at work while she held the slates. "When it ceased she opened the slates, which had all the time remained tied, and found the following message, not written on the slate, but cut iu, as if done by pressing hard with the point of a knife: Dear Parents: It may seem strange to you, but-I am a better engraver than w liter. Time inaj- erase this message, but rest as sured that it can never eruse my love for you. Devotedly, your son, Albert. On the same slate was written: ToMyl .irJlrs. 3t.: I i egret that it will be impossible for any of your loved ones to produce a picture through this instrument this mouth. C. D. 0. D. is Mrs. "I.'s. spirit control. Susan B. Anthony delivered an address here on Woman Suffrage Day and was per suaded to go before Mr. Keeler for a slate writiug. In writing to a lady friend here under date of August 19, she says: 3Ir. Heeler's slate writing is surely marvel ous. Whence he got the names or how the writiug was done is beyond me, but I hope some time to get some indication that will settle the question of authority w ith mo. Till then I shall be happy to hear from you and others on the subject. A NEW STORY Itead the opening chap ters ot a Splendid American Serial in to morrow's DISPATCII. BLACKMAILEES IK TEOTJBLE. They 3Iay Also Dave to Answer the Charge ot Incendiarism at Chicago. Chicago, Aug. 21. Thomas Higgins, "William Dalton, George Washington and John Anderson are lodged in the Central station, charged with conspiracy and an at tempt at blackmail in connection with Sei gel, Cooper & Co. 's fire. l"ver since their store on State and Adams street burned the proprietors have had suspicion that the fire was of incendiary origin. A few days after the fire a conversation between several of the employes in the place was overheard, in which they were discussing a plan of alleged blackmail. They agreed among themselves to accuse Charles V. Wise, a floorwalker, and Isaac Keim, who was at one time a member of the firm, and who is now secretary, of arson. There were originally six of the employes in the conspiracy, but two of them dropped out They agreeil to go to the insurance com panies and propose that on payment of 520, U00 they would dibclose the parties who had set the building on fire. They went to one company and made such an offer, and the company was at first inclined to look the matter up, but afterward their suspicions were aroused and they refused point blank, but the men a ere resolved not to be de feated in their scheme. They abandoned any idea of getting money from the insur ance companies finally, and decided to try the firm, Seigel, Cooper & Co. Whether they had acted upon this last scheme or not is not known ayct. To Let Ilooms. One cent per word in The DispAicn to-day. Atlantic City Excursion On Thursday, August 27, via the B. & O. R.

Ho Comes Back After Many Years and Searches for Ills Children. Wis-amac, Ind., Aug. 21. When this city was in its infancy, 23 years ago, a man named Daniel McClure lived here. His family at that time consisted of three girls and two boys. About that time his wife was taken suddenly ill and died. McClure soon left, having placed his children in the care of a man named Smith. Nothing was heard of him until last night, when an old and gray-haired man stepped from the train and began making inquiries in regard to his children. The man was McClure. He soon found bis youngest son, who is now about SO years of age, at work The rest of the children had married and moved to different parts of the country. McClure claimed that most of his time while away was spent in Scotland, and that he had written several letters, all of which had been lost. CONVICTS DESPEEATE ATTEMPT. Two of Tliein Killed and One Wounded In a Dreak for Liberty. Wam.a Walla, Wash., Aug. 21. A desperate attempt at escape was made at the penitentiary yesterday afternoon. W. M. Gleasou and John Morris, convicts, were killed and another convict wounded. A train load of material was run into the brickyard, and as soon as it stopped several convicts seized the warden of the prison, while others got into the engine cab. The engineer, however, reversed his engine and ditched the train, which frustrated the original plan of the prisoners. The warden was being hurried awar to another gate by the convicts when the guardis began shoot ing. The entire force finally came to the rescue of the warden, and after two men had been killed and another wounded order was restored.
