SPOOKS ARE REAL TO THEM
The Rational Spiritualists' Associ
ation to Meet Here.
It Will AtM-nible the -Middle of ext
Month and Itt-nmlii In Sooslou
Thri'O Days.
The third annual convention of the Na
tional Splrltuallsts'AssociatlonoftheUnltctl
States of America and Canada will be
called to order at Masonic Temple, October
ID. This will be the second time the as
sociation has met In this city and the third
time it has met since its organization.
The object of this convention of the as
sociation is to establish a irowerful central
organization for the purpose of promoting
co-operation of efrort throughout the spir
itualistic world, to establish new local as
sociations, wherever possible, for the bet
ter education and equipment of the speakers
and mediums, to devise a system of or
ganized effort for the defense of mediums
from unjust prosecution under the law;
mediumehip being a crime in many of the
States to-day.
The association seeks to establish schools
and colleges of a higher srder than those
now In oeration, letting natural education
prevail, and having the schools absolutely
non-sectarian, to establish hospitals, pr
more properly, sanitariums, for sick and
disabled mediums and all In the spirituals
lsllc world who are afflicted in any way.
Th'e system Is to be on an extended and
comprehensive scale.
A psychic instltulcis contemplated where
those who have decided niediumlstlc gifts
may have every facility and encourage
ment for the development of the same, to
5he very fullest extent.
President Harrison D. Barrett, in speak
ing to a Times representative of the pro
posed educational equipment, said:
"We hold that the higher the theme,
and the more exalted the system, the
purer tbat which comes through or ema
nates from It. Wc wish to establish
homes for aged speakers, mediums and
laity, where they may be tared for by
those of their same faith; and ultimately
we intend to build in this city, a spiritual
ists' temple, for use of spiritualists in
the United States, from which shall Issue
the most orthodox teachings of our faith."
There Js a movement on foot looking to
the establishment of a spiritualistic library
tor the preservation of the writings of
eminent spiritualists, there being about
150 volumes already collected, among
which arc some very creditable produc
tions, showing that, there are some of
our most Intellectual and highly culti
vated men laboring In behalf of the faith.
It is expected tbat there will be ICO
or more delegates in attendance at this
conference, which will be In session ttree
days, and bold -two business meetings
dally.
At 7:30 each evening grand public
meetings, with addresses, spirit commu
nications, music, etc., will be held; a
large number of lecturers and mediums
will be present and participate In the
exercises. An Invitation has been ex"
tended to all spiritualists In the United
States and Canada to be present. After
the speakers have given a talk on the
fundamental principles of spiritualism,
its doct rifles, etc, the test mediums will
give platform tests or public seances.
The officers and trustees of the asso
ciation are:
President, Harrison D. Barrett, who re
sides In the District, bnt whose citizen
ship Is In New York State; vice presi
dent, Mrs. Cora L. V. Richmond, Chicago,
HI.; secretary, Francis B. Woodbury,

BROUGHT TO JUSTICE.
Arrest of a Man TV ho Robbed tbo
Government Five Years Api.
The Post-office Department was yester
day, advised of the arrest of Allen M. Winn
at St. Paul, Minn., who was indicted in
1890 for embezzling money order funds at
the post-office at Haskell, Tex. Winn has
been a fuglUve from Jn6Uce for some years,
and cleverly worked the department for
a considerable sum of money.
Ho was a relative of the postmaster at
Haskell, and while not connected with the
office, assisted with the mall matter. He
forged the name of the postmaster on a re
quest to the department asking tbat a draft
be sent the office atHaskell. Thlswasdone
and he Intercepted the draft and sent it to
a bank near Haskell to be cashed.
The bank being short of funds sent only
one-third of the amount. Winn became
suspicions of this, took the money, and fled.
A few days later the remainder of the
money was cent by the bank much tgs.be
perplexity of the postmaster, who, upon
Investigation, discovered the swindle.
Winn has probably been In Canada all these
years.

Clinrles BaumVi New Store-Front One
of the IIiindsoineKt Hero.
One of tiic handsomest store fronts In
Washington is that of Mr. Charles Baum's
splendid dry goods emporium, at No. 416
Seventh street northwest. Its tasteful
figures In light brick work and Its two
lino marble columns have always gained
tncadmlratlon of passers, but recently a
feature has been added which makes the
display on the street unique and com
mands attention.
This is the double windows of fine French,
plate glass. The parts nrc Joined at a
broadly oblique angle, so as to show the
beautiful display to better advantage than
Is possible with any other arrangement of
the windows. Then, at the back and sides'
of the windows are costjy mirrors, reflect
ing tbo wilderness of beautiful colors
shown In one window, and tbe quieter,
but rich nnd costly materials lnthe other.
Between the two grand windows lies a
jflne piece of Mosaic work In tiles. A
white field Is surrounded by a bine and
brown border, while the well-known name,
"Charles Baum," welcomes the intending
purchasing with Its guarantee of fair
dealing and never-falling courtesy.
In addition to these larger Improvements
there have been numernos changes through
out the store, as suggested by recent ex
