But there were not enoulh diles In the house to malI It an ob ject J to Mrs. Barton , all she accordingly an nounced lint ( she would conteut herself with maklnr a few tests and save her lecture unt Monulny evening.

She was acquainted wlh the doctor for a great Illny years while he was Ivlul In the \ \ est . \s SOOI as his death from apoplexy was announced she Ippearel , upon the scene like a specter and announcetl that It was not apoplexy al all that had caused his death . hut poisoli ull hint Il was administered by the ( halHls of his wife.

Barton called Into her t presence the spirits of I number of wel known Council Burs people. Among them were those ot Wilam Garner , "Aunt Mary Morton , " Dr. C. 11. Pinney alit ! others. She described each one graphlcal ) She told one blonde , splrllucle young man that ho l was cut omit for a clairvoyant , anti that the spirit oC Xenophon , the old Greek lila.th torian t , had undertaken to teach him thea Imslness. Xenophnn was himself In cvi- dence. To another , whoso face was covered wlh black whiskers , she prophesied a sudden stroke oC good fortune and to another by an examInaton of his left hand. coupled with the advice or a military 10011ng old gente- ntan l from the ( spirit world , she promised a llfo oC 80 years I.'lnal ) ' , turning to 1 young woman seated In i one corner she pointed a long bony fore- fi nger before her , and exclaimed In an awestricken - stricken voIce , "There IS Dr. Poulson. He says he knows a great many ot you people and he has something very Important to say to tl t you-something that he wants to tell a larJer l crowd than Is here tonight , and he Is i going to talk througfl me. He Is going to t ell you that he mIld not die from a stroke or apoplexy , but he was polsone < Within two month ( ho says ho wi be materialized In this city at some of these meetings , so that he l can be seen by those who are here. He says he Is going home with me tonight. " At this startling statement : lrs. Barton excused herself from her llllrlt visitor , and saul to the audience : "I 'see spirits around me every day. Once as I was walking throukhi the streets oC Oak- 101id. l Cal two big burly Indian sPirits came up to me , and separating . one walked on each side oC me to protect me I never have the slIghtest fear of any harm coming to me , because I go so veil guarded by peot pie from the other world. "One day as I was sitting In my room reading the prophecy or Daniel of which I am very fond , I heard a voice behind mo say , 'You seem to be very much interested. ' I replied that I was , and soon found out that the elderly spirIt with whom I was talking was that of the Prophet Daniel. After some conversation : I asked him to tell me all about his being thrown Into the den oC lions . He dhl so . and I tool down the words as they came from his lips. The manuscript I have at lionie and Intended to bring here tonight. but I forgot I Is one oC the most beautiful things I ever read-entirely read-ntrely different from my usual literary style , so that I know It came direct from the prophet. prophet I covers the same ground as the book or Daniel , but doel away with all ( lie mysteries and contradictIons with whIch Daniel , like lke nil other books of holy writ . Is filled. The prophet told me that tim bible we have now Is not the genulno bible but only a very imperfect copy. The genuine bIble Is bid. den under the ( ruins ot the temple , where Il has been ever since Jerusalem was taken by the nomans. under Titus. Some day It wi be thug up and then we shall have not thin bible of today with all the coetradic. contrallc. tons which translators alll copyists have put Into I. but a clear , stralghtorwanl account ot the events of the ( early history or the world Tim story I wrote at Daniel's dlcla- ton ( Is as far superior to the bible story as anything can be I will bring It to the ( Ineet- ( log next Monday night and show Il to you.

I Is cIa lned that there ( Is considerable dlssats- faction In time ranks with . the ways of some of the high oncers and the accumulating Indebtedncss ( In the grand lomhge In one quarter It Is charged that several of these ofcials have never rendered a full anti coin- plEto accountn . They are also accused of turing a deaf car to the ( extensive chamois of members who express disapproval of thc action of the last grand lodge session In Plattsmouth. At the time I was decided to hold the next meeting at Norfolk which Is denominated as the farthest western point where the lodge enjoys any membership. It Is contended that Insteall or Norfolk , a place near the center of residence of lost ot the membership should have been se- lected. Omaha Is fa'ord by many and looked upon as the ( most convenient place for the delegates from points In Iowa , south Omaha , this city and vicinity. .To go to Norfolk would mean Incurring great expense by many when the few delegates from there ( might better afford to come here. To hold a grand lodge session In a smaller town would also surer the order to lose In estimation. orler estmaton. Much discord and wordy wars have therefore arIsen and the indifference oC the grand of- cers. It Is stated . has been severely crlt- clsed. Even In the official organ at Belle- vlo the acton oC the grand lOdge has been characterlzell as being foolish and Incumber- big the lodgc with unnecessary expense. That the lodge will take steps to separate from the Missouri and Illinois body Is already - ready a foregone conclusion , so the Informant stated. On the whole the order Is not enjoying - joying very great prosperity , and se\'erl lodges have hal to be suspended on account of Inability to pay grand lodge asses ments. . The probability oC graduated assessment to conform with age and the possible acton of reducing the Insurance from $1,000 to $100 Is also being discussed. Under the hihistletot .
