ALL MYSTERY SAYS PSYCHIST
Dr. Mclvor-Tyndall Addresses Large
■V Audience on Occult Philosophy
'•'•pr. Alexander J. Mclvor-Tyndall ad
dressed a large audience at Blanchard
hall yesterday afternoon on "Mysteries
Explained." The psychist explained
many; obscure points In the study of
occult philosophy and made clear the
ifact' that there is nothing mysterious
; in:the universe when once it is under
stood and comprehended.
/ "The only, thing that makes for mys
'■ tery is ignorance-unfamiliarlty,' 1 said.
Dr.' Mclvor-Tyndall. "All . the varied
phases of our commonplace, every-day
life were once mysteries. The tele
phone, the telegraph, locomotion' and
the, many material conditions that go
,to 3 make U P modern civilisation have
/been; evolved out of myoterV by some
one who desired to solve It. Mysteries
; are ; only good to , be solved. Just at
f present there la an almost universal
desire to probe into the mystery of the
■human mind, .human emotions and
human actions. Man desires to know
•something of himself and his untried
possibilities.' And necessarily In trying
'.to; solve the mysteries of the human
being -we are confronted >wlth perplex
ing problems. And the trouble Is that
,i'« expect to solve these questions all
at'once, instead of allowing them to
take .care of themselves."
V Dr. Mclvor-Tyndall will address
meetings at the Mclvor-Tyndall Inntu

ONLY r IRECT MALE DESCENDANT OF POLAND'S KING
COL. JOHN SOBIESKI
POLES' RIGHTFUL
KING LIVES HERE
CITIZEN OF LOS ANGELES IS
OF REGAL BLOOD
If Revolution In Poland Is Success
Col. John Sobieski of This
City May Be Placed on
Throne
Few people of Los /Angeles know
that they have a king for a neighbor.
A king by every right of lineal descent.
If Poland is successful in the struggle
in which It is now so desperately en
gaged It may turn to Los Angeles and
pick from our midst a man now living
modestly and simply in an unostenta
tious endeavor to serve as a good citi
zen of this republic should, and place
him on its throne with a crown upon
his head, and a great empire at his
feet for, him to govern. '. '■'
He Is known now as Col. John So
bleskl, and his title is a mark of dis
tinction for his service to' the United
States government (luring the Civil
War. He may, perhaps, be known
soon as His Imperial Majesty King of
Poland, and' that^itlejsjiis, right, as
the only direct descendent In the male
line of the last native king, but one, of
that, country — John Sobieskl. King
John was followed by .a , Saxon who
bought his election to the throne, and
he' in turn by Stanislaus Poniatowski,
. the creature of Queen Catherine of
Russia, • neither of whom could be con
sidered as bequeathing any rights to
their posterity that modern Poles could
respect. ■: ' »' , > i V .
. That a man who comes and goes
about the streets of Los Angeles as
any other resident, a' man of retiring
disposition, who finds the chtefest in
terest of his declining years In assist
ing the advancement of the cause of
temperance, ; in which he has become
interested, may be ■ suddenly trans
formed into a monarch attired In. regal
vestments, whose moves are announced
by a "fanfare of trumpets, is like a
chapter of the wildest romance ever
dreamed. /
All this, however, is far within the
range of possibilities and may anytime
be made a certainty by the success of
the revolution which is now practically
in progress in the' Russian empire.
Col. John Sobteski, 2807 Brighton ave
nue, Los Angeles, Cal., is the only Pole
whose blood would entitle him to the
throne of his native country.
Notable War Record
John Sobieskl was born in Warsaw,
the capital of Poland, September' 10,
1842. Hla father was Count John So
bieskl,' the son of James Sobieskl, who
fell on the battlefield In the revolu
tion .of 1831. Col. Sobieskl came to
America and entered the regular army,
serving for ten years. During- the
engagement between the Merrlmac and
the Monitor in the Civil War he re
ceived a Wound which : almost proved
fatal and which caused him much trou
ble in later years.
After our Civil War he Joined .the
Mexicans in the! rqstruggle against
the Austrian invader and guarded the
person of Maximilian the day before
the emperor was put to death.
Col. Sobleskl went to Missouri In the
'TO'b rind made his home at Neoaho In
the southwestern part of the unite. lie
became a lecturer on temperance and
us such lias been heard In every 'sec
tion of the country. ' A few years ago
he removed with his family to Los
Angeles, where he now resides.
It was over a century ago that the
ancestors of Col. John Sobieski were
deposed from their throne and their
country divided and their people en
slaved. Since that time It | has been
In name a province of the Russian em
pire. Hut it has been In name only,
for eve* since that time the people of
Poland have lined loyal to their old
traditions, . and now the enthusiastic
Poles can almost see their national
flag waving from the heights of War
saw. The present crisis In that coun
try has kindled within their breasta
the smoldering but, never entlnguished
Ares of : patriotism^ and they are | lv-
Bpiml with a new hope, it is such
times as these ( for which the; people of
Poland have waited during
the long- night of their country..
, The attempt/ to' denationalize the
country ■of Poland A ha» been carried
•i * LO3 'ANGELE9 ' HERALD? * MONDAY MORNING, FEBRUARY \%; igoJ/S
along constantly for over a hundred !
yenrs by every means that a cruel anil
relentless autocracy could devise. There
Is at present nnd has been for the
piist century a larger standing army
In Poland than Russia haa now fight
ing for her In Manchurln.
Though denleil the right to publish
papers In ' their -national tongue, to
have It taught their children In schools',
to use It in their churches, In the
courts, anywhere that edicts and Im
perial power could forbid It, they hftye
clung to their language as. tenaciously
as they have clung to thelrldeals. To
sing, hum, play or even mention the
former national anthem of the Poles
would be to invite a sentence In a Rus
sian Jail, yet the words and music of
the hymn are better, known to the
people of the , oppressed land than Is
"The Star Spangled Banner" In" thfe
United States.
The spirit of the people has been sub
dued in so far as any open manifesta
tion of it Is concerned, but under thC! ;
surface Poland Is n seething pool of
rebellion. The people bow to the czar's
edicts, for they know, they have been
taught by experience, how futile. Is-re
sistance;' how little Is accomplished,
save to sow the soil with the blood of
martyrs, so l^ng- as the autocrats are
undisturbed at home and able to con
centrate their strength'on the attempt
ed Russlflcation of conquered provinces.
Banished by Russia
The early life of Col. John Sobieskl
was dramatic and inspiring in the ex
treme. His father and his uncles were
executed by the Russian government
when hie was but seven yea rs old .'and
his mother and he were, banished from
the country.-;. 'At the time of his fattt
ePs execution his mother was given the
choice of retaining the Sobieski estates
In Poland or of banishment, but If she
accepted the former she' must consent
to have her boy taken from her on
that day and conveyed to an Institu
tion of' the Greek chu: - ch where they
might rear him under guard to become
an adherent of ■ the Russian govern
ment and she must consent also to take
the oath of fidelity to the czar. She
replied as follows, as taken from the
story of his life written ,by Col. So
bieskl:
"Sire, you can tell' the emperor for
me, that he can, take from us our es
tate, he can take from us all that we
possess In the world, banish me and my
child from our native land,' home and
kindred, to dwell ' In foreign • lands
among strangers. I may be compelled
to beg for myself and my boy, but I
will go and I will teach my boy that
he is a Pole, and to love liberty and to
despise tyranny, and to revere . " and
cherish the cause ' which his father
cherished and died for, and to hate with
undying hatred that nation and sover
eign who murdered his father and kin
and despoiled his country, and sent us
into exile." " V
Col. Sobleskl's mother died a ! few
years later In England of a broken
heart. There is probably no more
ardent Polish enthusiast in the world
at the present time than Is Col. So
bieskl, although the latter is an Amer
ican citizen. " When the war between
Russia and Japan broke out Col. So
bleski predicted the uprising which Is
now occurlng In Poland, and Biiid then
that he woul* return to lead his people
against their oppressors.
Hut he sees now that hla advunced
age does not permit this and he can
only extend his sympathy to them in
their fight. He has no personal feel
ings in the uprising for it' is his hope
that Poland will, if it ever be restored
to Its freedom, be made a. republic in
its form uf government with the' best
innn for president. ,
Col, Sobleski Is living here with his
wife and 'daughter. The latter, al
though »he may be Boon a princess in
her. own right, U perhaps more , happy
now with only one subject at her com
mand. ' She was married three yeara
ago to U. 8. ailhousen.
