The mnrder of which be was con victed was that of a young workman out near Hpearfish. of whom Dnnn was said to 1*' jealous. They U)th loved the same girl, and although Dunn, as be was known heie, was a man past middle life, and Haniuelrton a young man,nevertnelet8 Dunn bad not seemed to fear bis rival until the night when, angeied with jealousy, he shot 8am ueison. who died instantly. The most thrilliug incident in con nection with the crime was the snc ceattful manner iu which Duun for the next three weeks eluded the offi cers of the law. He remained in the mountains near the vicinity of biB crime for sometime, and even came down at nights, more than once to bis little cabin for food and supplies. Unce he was bidden in a clump of plnm trees, when the posse in search of him parsed by and baited their horses so near that the concealed criminal could hear them discuss their plans for his capture. For weeks the search went on. One innoceut man. because of his likeness to the hunted man, nearly lost his life every one answer ing to the description was suspected Finally after a search of more than twenty days Duun wan found down on the hanks of the Cheyenne river, some thirty^ miles from ibe seat of tbe crimed, placidly catching grasshoppers to use as tait. .. After being taken be attempted suicide. When tried last September he was found gnilty and sentenced to he hanged. The case appealed to the an preme court, with the resalt above noted.

Prominent tSfvtne of Reformed Eplg o a u S a y s e N e v e S a w a Spirit, but Has Known People Who Have 8een 6pirits~rNew gifawoa «f "Immortalism." "Telepathy is an established fact In recent years great strides have been made in tbe explanation of psycbi phenomena, and hi the years to conit tbe science of communication with tbt dead will be made a part of the currk uluiu of great educational institution As its study becomes systematized ami more widely spread greater advance will be made, and some day we wiii talk with the spirits as we now talk with material persons." This statement is made by Bishop Samuel Fallows of tbe Reformed Epb copal church. He Is well known in Chicago, where he resides. Future advancement in the science of "immortalism," wbich is BfHritunl ism with the "fakes" left out, wiil some day briug it to the point where it will be studied by the masses just as they now delve into Latin, arlthuu tic, geography or grammar, according to Bishop Fallows, who spoke at St Paul's Reformed Episcopal church on "Why Am 1 an Immortalist and Not a Spiritualist?" The bishop made startling statement s to the writer. He frankly states that he formerly fought shy of spiritualism and that he is just beginning to learn In the enlightened days to come, saj -j Dr. Fallows, we shall be able to con verse with spirits of departed friend and relatives. Their state will be made known to us through these communi cations. They will be able to advise us on knotty problems, he adds. Hasn't Yet Seen a Spirit. Bishop Fallows quotes a speech of Dr. Adam Clarke, lu which that celt brated commentator said: "I believe that spirits may, accord lng to the order of CJod, In the laws of their place of residence, have inter course with this world and become vis ible to mortals." "Did you ever see a spirit Bishop Fallows was asked. "No, I never have," was the answer, "but I know persons who claimed to have seen and talked with spirits, in telligent members of my own congre gation, whose words I have no reason to doubt "I discouraged them in their belief. I now feel that their experiences were of great value and that I sustained an incalculable loss by not going deeper into the matter with them." "You really believe, then, that spir its may be visible to material persons and that they may talk with and influ ence a material mind?" he was asked. "I do firmly believe that. There are well authenticated cases on record where important actions of noted men had beeu influenced by some super natural communication. "Mysterious Agencies."" "In many cases they were UBSWS to Identify the mysterious agencies. They had merely an intangible feeling that they should change their course. But in other cases they were able to re member the spirit who talked to them, to repeat its exact words and to de scribe its appearance. These instances cannot be doubted, as they come from men high in their professions. "There are great truths in spiritual ism. Many spiritualistic phenomena we cannot understand, but we have to admit them. I have called the new science 'immortalism' because it de pends for its existence upon the im mortality of the soul, in which we all believe, and tbe preservation of iden tity beyond the grave. Immortalism Is simply spiritualism with all the frauds and trickery eliminated. On account of these frauds spiritualism has been shunned by many right thinking peo ple, but immortalism will claim their most earnest attention." In support of his belief Bishop Fal lows quoted from many eminent men who have expressed similar views.
