Inventor lias Maimed Iiis Mind,
as Darwin Did, Declares
the Cardinal.
NOT A GOOD PHILOSOPHER

Tb??nia.'- A. ISdlsoii's recent dentals of '
1 aitli in the hnmortality of tho sotil i
have moved Cardinal Gibbons to reply i
in the form of an interview.
Cardinal Gibbons was inclined to ac- j
count for Mr. IMison's vle>ys on the
??rounds that, like Darwin, he hud spo- \
eiiillzod too completely along a single j
hue to prevent the maiming of his j
own. hiinti. lit developing . this idea
Cardinal Gibbons i;- reported to have ',
said:
"Some belittle .Mr. Ldisoii as a mere j
mechanic. I havi; ho patience with
fcuch views. He is the representative
of American lnvcntive genius and has
brought glory upon our country in the
whole world, he has been intensely
devoted to his pursuits, and he 1ms
paid the penalty .lust as so ihatiy of
our great men do, just as Darwin did.
"barwin bemoaned at the end of j
his lifo that his Intense devotion to j
KcientiiVc study had atrophied his sense i
of poetry, of rhusie. l know hot What;
1 would add. ills sense of religion, fo: ;
the religious spirit, if not cultivated,',
will die; too. So Has it hern wit'll Mr, .
Bdlson; ho has maimed his own mind..
Just as Darwin did. l>v a too one- j
vided exercise of its powers. He talks ;
with great freedom; and i may sa >\ i
with not n little contempt of theology;!
but otto suspects that he has been too j
occupied, and perhaps tod contempt- j
nous of theology, to devote much time
t.> its study. Cine suspects that his
acquaintance witli it is almost limit?
ed to frngme tary reminiscences of
By'rmons hoard in boyhood days.
"F/ven the Pope does r.ot dogmatize j
until the question has been discussed j
fo: centuries and settled by tho voice
cf exports. But here Is ti scientist who ,
proclaims dogmas to the public; and
he yems to ask us t-> believe them ?

t.s the head of a school ho might refer)
us to their arguments: hut l do not!

veals his mind. In fact, l cannot place 1
Mr. Kdiron i do r.ot know any school '
that would claim hl hl. All 1 can be I
? tire of is that lie dogmatizes tin his
own account.
"Perhaps not more than one person j
in 5.000 or 10,000 has a philosophic
education or a truly philosophic mind.
One might as will discuss algrebraie
problems in a popular lecture, if Mr.
Fdlson were better philosopher ho
would hiivo realized that. ljl.it his is
an Intuitive mind, one that makes
brilliant guesses of truth (and some- j
titr.es proves ttiem) and brilliant i
blunder';: Init?T can say tills without!

Ii." geh I Us in other lines?his is not tit
an a philosophic mind. No phll?so- j
pher, 1 may even say no scientist, who I
had undergone iho drill of a uhlyor
>ity. cohld ever have given to the. pub?
lic such an interview as this in my |
hand.
"So genius ? an offord to tic g loci the!
patiei.t labors of the worlds great
thinkers and strike out for himself.
Mr. F.dison. like many another great
man, has hot recognized his lliriita
I Ions. The greatest mortals are Unite,
viry finite. None of t:s knows every?
thing. But I said there are philoso?
phic proofs for the spiritual nature of
the soul and Its survival after death."
Cardinu] Gibbons advised the read?
ing of Mahur's "Psychology" for evi?
dence of such philosophic proof.", and
urged the convictions Of thousand- , .
religious teachers as to the rellabil.t.v
of tho Ne\y ilfs.lament record concern

arguments of counsel will begin.
Mr*. Lillian A. Turnbull, plaintiff.
k'as the only witness at the short
session held yesterday. She admitted
the receipt of various sums of money
from William M. Bedding, the New
York attorney, who formerly repre?
sented Colonel Albert A. Pope, of Bos
ion. She gave the total as 51,600. In
tins she corroborated Mr. Redding'*
testimony.
Tho witness denied that there ever
whs any undue friendship between her
and J. F. Falvey. wljo was foreman of
the Baldwin ranch in 1SI>3. but who is
now dead. The defense introduced a
lino of testimony that suggested the
probability ol Falvey being the father
of the claimant rath Or than "Lucky"
Baldwin.
Tue young woman In whose behalf
Mrs. Turnbull has bared much of her
early life was in court for the tlrst
time in three weeks. She was kept out

"Oh, Such an Awakening!" It
Cries in Alleged Message?Has |
Found Sorrow and Remorse.
Boston, Mass.. February 1U.?More j
messages from Professor .lames, lfar-j
vard's noted psychic investigator, have j
boon received at the Ayer Spiritual
Temple, according: to M. S. Ayer, its
founder.
In his reported message Professot
James says he has walked with those
who have passed before, "held their
hands, looked Into their faces"' and I
realized that death does not end all.
According: to the message. Professor
James is not altogether happy. The
message In part, as alloged to have
beeji received from Professor James,
reads:
'I am awake at last, and, oh, stub an
awakening: To know that donth is not
the end, to feel more truly alive than
we have ever been before and realize
t'aere is still work for us to do, still
something to live for. something to
strive for, understanding not, yet
knowing that all is well.
"I believe that for many years man
has labored under the erroneous opin?
ion that when wo have crossed the
dark river of death all things arc j
made plain to us and that we instantly I
comprehend all of the wonders and
mysteries of life. Because man has j
been prone in the past to accept this I
theory as a fact. I feel that many will !
be sadly disappointed when the- disso
Itition conies and they realize that as
they were yesterday so they are to?
day.
"Von upon earth who imagine that
1 have entered Into a state of rest atifl
peace arc very far from the truth, for.
although at first, when 1 realized that
the great change had taken place. 1
did sense for a time a peace passing
all understanding: it was not for long,
tor although 1 had not lived a sinful
life while a dweller upon earth. 1
found many pages in the Book of Life j
not fair and spotless, and these all
lie before me now. bringing to me |
sorrow and remorse and an intense
desire to rewrite them und erase the J
dark spots which deface tho fair
Pages." _
census figures too low j
Director Durand Thinks Count TUn? .
Have Misr.cd 1,000,000 or More.
Washington. D. C February 19.? ?
"Taking the country as a whole, it is '
probable that the population is slightly!
understated by the Census Bureau," de- t
claros Director o'f the Census Durand 1
in his annual report, "but whether the
margin of error Is a fraction of l per
cent, or amounts to as much as J per
cent, no one can positively know. That
It should exceed 2 per cent, is certainly
cxt remely improbable;"
This statement, which indicates that]
more than 1,000,000 persons may have
been missed in the count, is made in
the course of Mr. Durand's discussions I
of the twenty-three cities which were
overcounted. Declaring Iiis intention'
to make an investigation of census:
taking abroad to discover means for J
materially improving the work in the j
United States, he says that "it may be.
tin,i the present methods of taking j
the census secure results as nearly per?
fect as is possible."
It was necessary, after careful lnvcs- .
ligatlon, the director s:iys, to correct I
;iie population figures for some twenty- [
three cities of tin- United States, "whose (
census returns had been inaccurately
made or 'padded.' either intentionally
or through carelessness or < rror." Inj
Several cities ther*- -eems to have been '
a deliberate conspiracy between pri?
vate individuals and some of the spe?
cial agents or .numerators, or both, to!
indite, fraudulently; the returns. Sev?
eral cases of padding are now in the
hands of lite Department of Justice. j
Taking up the cost, of the present
census, tho director thinks it will ex-j
eeed its original estimate by $183,000.:
The ottire cost of field work on popu?
lation and agriculture for the thlr- |
tcenth census was about $5.S5?,?00, an j
increase over iro>n Df about $t,5S7,G06.1
or approximately 37 Vi per cent.

?- I
From the Time lie Put It in the,
Package the Mail Bag Had
Been in Active .Service.
Springfield, Mass., February tf?.?For
a quarter of a century Rev. Charles
Kdwln Burdotte, now of this city, has
ilvocl under the suspicion that he was a
hypocrite and a thiof. In his boyhood,
while he was registry elcrl; of iho
Peoria (III.) post-office, $3,500 myste?
riously disappeared, and he was thought
lo have taken It.
Mr, Burdotte became a missionary j
and labored among the heathen of the!
Far East for twenty years. All that'
time the .stigma clouded hi3 namo. AU
that time he prayed that Hod would
clear him of a charge of which ho was
Innocent. And jura the other day his
prayer was answered, the truth was
discovered, and the tragic shallow was
swept from his life.
In tiie early seventies Burdette was
employed as registry clerk in the
Pebria post-ofiir.e, of which General n.
\V. Magee, who had won laurels as a
commander of Illinois volunteers In the
Civil War. was postmaster.
?lohn Comstock. a wealthy real estate
man. appeared one day at young Bur
dette's window. He announced that he
wished to send $3,500 in twelve reg?
istered letters to clients in Nebraska
and Dakota. 1
Burdette registered them in the cus- j
tomary way and gave Coc-stock a re?
ceipt.
Then he. placed all twelve envelopes]
in one large envelope of thick, heavy 1
paper. This he carefully lace.j nt j
the bottom of a mall bag In which the 1
morning's muil was to be sent off by
tiie next, train. On top of the enve?
lope he threw the unregistered mail.
On top of the unregistered mall ho
placed his registry book. Then he
locked and sealed the sa?k.
The route agent foun.l the entries
In Burdette's registry hook, but when
ho emptied the mail bay he found no
registered envelope. Therefore he did
hot sign his name In the book.
There was much angry talk between 1
the" two young men. The route agent I
insisted that he had not received the.
envelope and refused to sign for it. |
When Cocstock learned that the
money had not reached Its destination
he became furious. Fie proclaimed lit?
had been robbed. When Postmaster
Magee refused to believe Burdette tils- j
honest he took the matter to Washing?
ton and tried to have the clerk di>- \
missed, but Burdette stood firm and
demanded an investigation. With the
honesty of his office at stake. General
Magee made the investigation very
thorough. The bald facts looked bad?
ly for Burdette. Comstock had passed
the money to Burdette. The money
never had reached the route agent on
the train.
In defiance of peremptory orders
from Washington, young Burdette held !
Iiis job. He remain".! as registry clerk 1
in the Peoria post-office until he was j
ready to go to college. He studied for
the ministry and spent twenty years
in Asia as a missionary. Finally he
returned.
Through all the years since the day
In Peorlrt that the money had disap?
peared the mail hag in which Bur?
dette had placed the registered pack?
age had done yoeman service.
At last It was sent to a repair shop
in San Francisco to be repaired. As
the bottom fell off a big envelope of
thick heavy paper rolled upon tho
jloor.
It was the envelope that young Bur?
dette a quarter of a century before
had placed In the mail bag. It con
mined twelve smaller envelopes which
in turn held $3,500 in cash.
"I am only sorry," said Mr. Bur?
dette when he learned the good tid?
ings, "that General Magee and Mr. j
Comstock art- not alive to know the!
truth."

"This is the new theology of Eng?
land," said Dr. Clayton, pastor of the
' Smlthfleld Stri ct. Methodist Fplscopu)
Church. "The Ten Commandments are
sufficiently short now, and I can't un?
derstand how the subject matter could
i he treated of in any briefer work.
Many subjects are discussed covering
tho entire realm of moral and spiritual
life In a few choice and carefully se?
lected words. This is some of the work
of Dr. Campbell, of the London Tem?
ple, who is trying to introduce bid
truths in new guises. The Command?
ments have lasted throughout the age?
and will continue to do so In the fu?
ture, regardless of the action of man."
"The decalogue should be. ief't as it
is" said Dr. Warren Partridge, pas?
tor of the First Daptis'i Church. "Any
person of average, intelligence can ap?
ply these principles Just as the patri?
archs did in the olden times."

I Cirand Jury Will Indict Mnti.v I,ending
Citizen?.
Danville. 111.. February 13.-? Men
liheht in business and social lift
win be indicted by the Vermilion
county grand jury this week in the
Vota traffic investigation, to cording to a
statement made to-night by George B
Weislger, member ot l lie grand jury
and special prosecutor since the oust?
ing of State's Attorney Lawman.
Mr. Weislger said that the Jury had
mato'riai for a "startling number oj
indictments and ncveral cas<s. of per?
jury." A preliminary report, of a
batch of vote selling indictments will
be mode Tuesday or Wednesday* at the
late.il, he added.
"Pc< pie arc asking If the grand jury
investigation is ever going to come to
anything." Mr. Welaiger said. ''Politi?
cians will find that it will be dangerous
to ;ry to blo< k us. The idea that If
Indictments are returned no one will be
punished will prove a mistake. Every
indictment will b<? backed with evi?
dence that will .stand tests in the
courts. The thoroughness of tue work
is tile reason why the mill .seems to bo
grinding so slowly."
Mr. Weislger said that a surprise
would appear in the report, which v.;il)
fall with special effect on ward work?
ers who In lieve themselves immune.
The conspiracy indictment, lie said, will
show why the grand jury went back oi
the eighteen months' limitation set by
Judge Klmbrough.
Investigation of the election methods
of the Soldiers' Home, where 2,000 war
j veterans are housed, has revealed
much corruption. It is said.
SITUATION HOPELESS
Idea of Clilnn Defying Russia Is rtldt
culcd.
Peking. February 19.?It is con?
sidered as significant that tho Japan?
ese here are anxious to direct atten?
tion to the F.rillsh Investment of the
disputed Yun-Nan border, which is du?
to the procrastinating tactics of the
Chinese in negotiating a settlement of
a long-standing dispute. This Anglo
Chinese dispute arose from the failure
to delimitate properly 220 miles of tho
Burmah-Yun-Nan frontier, and tho
consequent troubles with marauding
tribes, which led to the dispatch of a
British force under orders to remain
until the delimitation was completed.
The suspicion of a Russo-Japanese
I concert is still' strong, and Japanese
I action is looked lor at the auspicious
moment. The officials ot the British
legation, having had their patience
j exhausted frequently of late, do not
sympathize with the Chinese in the
difficulty which has arisen with Rus
! sia, and the consensus of opinions in
I the legation quarter is that tho Chi?
nese government, instead of advancing
In recent years, has steadily become
more and more incapable. It is de?
clared that it is almost impr .ssiblo for
tho legations to obtain action on any
question. They instance the delay In
the American loan. Among the gov?
ernment officials, the talk is endless,
and little* progress is made. Both the
friends and foes of China see hope
, iessncss in the situation and ridicule
I the Idea of China defying Russia. Some
of them hope for American or other
interference.
