EXISTENCE RESEMBLES LOOM Intercourse Across the Chasm of Death May Be Gradually Attained, He Asserts. Special Cable to The American. BIRMINGHAM, ENGLAND, Sept. 13.—“I am one of those who think that the methods of science are not bo limited in scope as has been thought, that they can be applied much more widely and that the psychic region can be studied and brought under law, too." So declared the learned Sir Oliver Lodge, president of the British As sociation for the Advancement of Science, in his address at the opening of the association's meeting here to day. And again the erudite president 6a id.. ‘^Already the facts examined have convinced me that memory and affec tion are not limited to that associa tion with matter by which alone they can manifest thernseives here and now, and that personality persists be yond personal death.” So, despite his denial that he would Invade the psychic region in his ad dress Sir Oliver did enter it, but he watched his every step, guarded his every word. "Keystone of Evolution.” Said he to his great audience: "If we have learned from science that evolution is real, we have learned a great deal. Surelv evolution is not 8n illusion; surely the universe pro gresses In time. Time and space and matter are abstractions, but are none the less real; they are data given by experience; arid time is the keystone of evolution. "I see the whole of material exist ence as a steady passage from past to future, only the single instant which we call the present being ac tual. The past is not non-existent, however; it is stored in our memo ries; there is a record of it in matter, I and the present is based upon it; the \ future is the outcome of the present j and is the product of evolution. Life Is Like a Loom. "Existence is like the output from a loom. The pattern, the design for the weaving, is in some sort ‘there’ already; but whereas our looms are mere machines, once the guiding I cards have been fed into them, the Loom of Time is complicated by a | multitude of free agents who can modify the web. * * * "Either we are immortal beings or we are not. We may not know our destiny, but we must have a destiny of some sort. Those who make de nials are just as likely to be wrong ns those who make assertions; in fact, denials are assertions thrown into negative form. “Scientific men are looked up to as authorities and should be careful not to mislead. Science may not be ablfe to reveal human destiny, but it cer tainly should not obscure it. Things are as they are, whether we find them out or not. Asks for a Fair Trial. "Allow us, anyhow, to make the at tempt. Give us a fair field. Let those who prefer the materialistic hypothe sis by all means develop their thesis as far as they can; but let us try what we can do in the psychical re gion and see which wins. "Our methods are really the same as theirs—the subject matter differs. Neither should we abuse the other for making the attempt. “In justice to myself and my co workers 1 must leave on record our conviction that occurrences now re garded as occult can be explained and reduced to order by the methods of science carefully and persistently ap plied,” said Sir Oliver, on whom uni versities have showered honorary de grees. “The evidence, to my mind, goes to prove that discarnate intelligence, un der certain conditions, may interact with us on the material side, thus in directly coming within our scientific ken; and that gradually we may hope to attain some understanding of the nature of a larger, perhaps the real, existence, and of the conditions reg ulating intercourse across the chasm.” BOY UBGES OPERATION TO LET HIM GO TO SCHOOL ANN HARBOR, MICH., Sept. 13.— Making the journey from his home in Lewistown to this city alone, where he went to the University Hospital .o prepare for an operation for the re moval of cataracts which are threat ening his sight, Charles Rice, 8 years old, is anxious to have the doctors begin the work at once, so he may at tend school for the first time next month.

NEWPORT, Sept. 13.—For the fourth time Paul A. Andrew's, pos sessor of millions and a surpassingly attractive daughter, has wearily penned a note to the public. It is the same note every time with but the only difference that each bears the name of a different young man coupled with that of beautiful Mar garet Andrews, the surpassingly at tractive daughter hitherto mentioned. This last note was a denial that Miss Andrews was engaged to Mor gan Belmont, son of August Belmont.. One before that had its mission in telling the world that Miss Andrews was not engaged to Harold Vanderbilt. Before that It was Herman Oelrichs. And the first one was Vincent Astor. And Miss Margaret is but 19. and her second year out. She is the most- reported-to-be-engaged girl in the Newport set. Rumor has coupled her name so often and so sincerely with one youth after another of the gilded set that it would seem Rumor would lose its reputation for veracity. For each time the gossip has fallen fiat, under the emphatic little card from Father Andrews. Young Belmont Attentive. This last time all Newport thought the pursuit of beautiful Margaret An drews over. Morgan Belmont was most assiduous in his attentions. The things he told Miss Andrews and the manner in which he told them didn’t Li mt mi imiii iil UANl ItriiN No More Dandruff or Falling Hair—A Real Surprise Awaits You. To be possessed of a head of heavy, beautiful hair; soft, lus trous. fluffy, wavy and free from dandruff, is merely a matter of using a little Danderine.

They were together much of the time. And so. in Society’s mind, it was all set tled. Until came the note from Mr. Andrews. Theyffair has served merely to in crease the score of Miss Andrews as the most-reported-to-be-engaged girl for her years. She is just 19, and they say her head is not turned a bit. And she is well worth w'hile in other ways, being beautiful, blender, lively and a daring motorist, rider, swim mer, tennis player and all that. From the moment she first entered the gayety of the younger set she has been courted. Several years ago, when she w'as very young, indeed, and before she had made her debut, Vincent Astor noticed her. He was then freshman at Harvard, and \ morning, noon and night found him at the .vide of the dainty girl. But she was very young then, and Society’s gossip of their engagement did not hear much conviction. Herman Oelrichs Ardent. Vincent Astor, the suitor, was some what distant, somewhat superior, somewhat open Jn his attitude of be ing the richest youth. Miss Andrews’ next suitor, how’ever. was as ardent as could be desired. He was Herman Oelrichs. not quite as rich as Vincent Astor, but wealthy enough at that Then it was Harold Vanderbilt, who courted in a warm, orthodox fashion himself. But of them all, Morgan Belmont was the movt attentive, the most tireless, the most devoted. And So* ciety believes that is the reason Fa ther Andrews' note of denial bore so emphatic and conclusive a tone. He probably was perturbed a bit himself. Miss Andrews, the object of all this gofwip. is with It all the most popular girl in Newport. She is never bored, never listless, never indifferent. In so far as that goes, she is different. Therefore, she has more than her share of attention, and no girl who rets attention can hope to escape the gossip. Hence the reports, and hence the weary job of Father Andrews in ■enning his notes to the public.

INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. 13.—History is one of the most useless subjects taught in the common Schools, in the opinion of W. W. Parsons, president of the Indiana State Normal School at Terre Haute. President Parsons says he bases his thoughts about history on the necessary reaction on the part of a person acquiring historical knowl edge. To make his words clear, he said the mind of a child, and even that of an older person, can not grasp the magnitude of the battle of Gettysburg or similar events, which are the more important history les sons. Despite his opinion. President Par sons did not advocate less history in the grade schools or any change in the system of teaching that branch.

NEW YORK, Sept. 13.—That the American-Hawaiian Steamship Com pany will send a steamship through the Panama Canal every 36 hours next year, and that instead of sail ing every five days they will send their vessels out every three days, was part of the program announced here to-day by the company. The statement was provoked be cause an issued report stated that the American-Hawaiian line was consid erably “overbuilt.” In answer the company stated that it requires a year to complete steam hip, and they have thus far launched four of their new fleet of eight big cargo carriers. The others will go into service in March, 1914, by which time it is expected the canal will be ready for use. The statement of the company fol lows : “The fgot of having excess tonnage far ahead of the opening of the canal does not disconcert us and the Amer ican-Hawaiian line is proud of th6 fact that their fleet with a capacity of 270,000 tons will be ready in time. When the canal route is used we shall maintain a schedule of one steamer sailing from New York every three days. “It is true that we have chartered the American and the California to the American and Cuban Steamship Company and we believe these steam ships will make several trips to Bra zil.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 13.—When California makes merry at the Por- tola Festival next October, in this city, a post of honor in the parade will be given to "Charlie McLean No. 1”—a stage coach with a place in the history of the State.

Black Bart, Joaquin Murietta and Vasquez halted it in their heyday or were defied by its messengers. It still carries bullet holes. It was in the "Charlie McLean” that Horace Greeley made his noted ride to keep a lecturing engagement at Placerville, when the name wasn’t Placerville, but Hangtown. Sam Clemens was its passenger many times when, In his newspaper days, he covered the Nevada Legislature at Carson City. FORT SILL, OKLA., Sept. 13.—In the Wichita National Game Preserve, ten to fifteen miles west of Fort Sill, the United States Government has undertaken to restore and perpetuate the useful wild game animals and the wild game birds that abounded in the Southwest in frontier days. This was the natural range of the buffalo, the elk, the deer and the antelope. All have been brought back to the preserve, which contains near ly 70,000 acres. Frank Rush, an ex perienced plainsman, is warden of the preserve. In March. 1905, the New York Zoo logical Society sent a herd of six male and nine female buffalo to the preserve. The herd has increased to forty fine full-blooded spclmens. Dr. William T. Fiornaday, the noted naturalist, predicts that by 1918 the herd will number a hundred. Eleven prong-horned antelope ar rived from Yellowstone Park in 1911. The antelope is wild and timid, and four died from the long railroad Jour ney. Later five more died. A fine buck and a fine doe survived, and Warden Rush is confident that they will grow into a herd. A herd of twelve elk is thriving. The native white-tailed deer is rapid ly increasing and now numbers pos sibly 200.

Hoosier Merchants Must Get Yardsticks Commissioner Prepares Pamphlet Declaring Scale on Counter Marked With Tacks Illegal. Famous Author of Matrimonial Essays Sues for Freedom from Young Chicago Husband. Candidates for Position Must Know What Is a Minor and the Sunday Laws. PATERSON, N. J„ Sept. 13.—Bar tenders have organized a union and have decided that all future members must answer the following questions before they qualify: "What is a minor?" "Give ten ways of selling liquor on Sunday with the front door locked and all shades down.” "What Is the best medicine In the world besides whisky?” “Can you tell whether a man is married or single by the drink he or ders?” "Which Is considered best to re move a whisky breath—cloves or an other drink?” INDIANAPOLIS, IND., Sept. 13.— No more will the small Hoosier store keeper measure off his ginghams, calico or silks on an improvised scale, marked off with tacks on the inside of his counter. This practice has been declared illegal by H. E. Barnard, State Com missioner of Weights and Measures, and he Is preparing a pamphlet or. the subject to be distributed among the small town shopkeepers. Mrs. Lillian Bell Bogue, famous au thor, in the days when she still was Miss Lillian Bell, of Atlanta, indorsed a cynical bit of advice. It was: “Marry early, and if the circum stances permit—often.” Now Mrs. Bogue is an Inconsistent person, as you will come to know. She forgot what she had written, at least the last part of it, married Ar thur Hoyt Bogue, a young Chicago man seven years her junior, and vowed undying love. Later she recollected, and wrote: "What is marriage for, anyway? Is it built on anything but selfish ness? And if so, is it surprising that it fails? The wonder to me is that so many hold.” And now she is seeking a divorce from her husband. Considered Love Expert. Her divorce suit has created some thing of a stir in literary circles, be cause Mrs. Bogue professed to be an authority on matters pertaining to love and marriage. But the courses of erotic experts sometimes go awry, it seems. Under the name of Lillian Beil she wrote miles upon miles of pseudo ad vice and instruction upon the relation of sex to sex. One of her pet theories was a “college for lovers,” in which she would establish courses in "How to manage a clever woman,” "How to keep your wife in love with you,” "How to develop your wife’s person ality,” and all that. It is notable that most of her advice went out to men. Through it all her writ!I strange mixture of sentiment and a cynicism, with more of the latter than the former, perhaps, just as her career has been a strange mixture of happiness and sadness. Altogether, she is inconsistent. For instance: "No man under 35 is lit for mar riage. Younger than that, men are stupid, egotistical and boorish.” When she wrote that she was 33. Within a few months she met, loved and married Arthur Iloyt Bogue, just 25 years old, a Chicago real estate man. “Of course,” she explained it, "I no not really believe all the things 1 wrote. That article was merely the result of a conversation with a maga zine editor.” Another proof of her inconsistency: Miss Lillian Bell laughed at the suitor who did too much suing. She said the man must take what he wants, after the manner of the old cave dweller. Compelling Power Wins. "It needs a compelling, not a per suasive power, to win a woman,” said she. "No man who takes me like this can have me,” and she gently touched together her forefinger and thumb. "He must take mo like this,” and she clenched her fist. Then she married. To all appear ances; that is, to judge from appear ances as she presents them, Mr. Bogue was anything but the charac ter of forcefulness. “My husband has never earned a living for me since we were married,” she said in an interview the other day. "I have supported him and our daugh ter for the last ten years.” Mrs. Bogue, it seems, has not the ability to abide by her own precept, nor to persuade her own husband to accept her advice. Too bad, too. She had muWi advice to give, e pecially along the lines that had to do with man and maid. All she wrote was on that sentimental subject of love, courtship and mar riage. “The Love Affairs of an Old Maid,” for instance, and “From a Girl’s Point of View” and dozens of articles of the same tone. Mrs. Bogue says her husband is a druukaxd and worthless. If so, she can hardly be blamed. Mr. Bogue i says his wife is fanatical and intoler- I ant. If so—but this is not brief of their affair. It is merely a revelation i of the fact that Mrs. Lillian Bell j Bogue, estimable author, preceptor of lovers and w< dded folk, is an incon- ! sistent philosopher, and a teacher without the ability of self-instruction. Also, it might illustrate the fallacy of setting one’s self up as an authority on matters of love, courtship and marriage.
