GUITEAU OUT OF SHEOL.

HI3 MOTHER EXPLAINS HIS MORAL IRRESPONSIBILITY. Jay OoaM't First State After Tr.-th How Yanderbilt Was Iicf lined Th Reim of the t'nhnppj A Materialist's fonvrrInn. ISt. Louis Globe-Democrat. Washington-, D. C, Jan. 15. "Tha fpirit of Guiteau hag been released Irom bell. It is now progressing through the pheres. Gaiteau was not morally responsible for the assassination of Garfield. This appeared upon our investigation. AVe released Guitaau'a spirit and turned it orer to his mot tier. She interceded for him." This etranee news wai told in the priYette office attached to the counting room of one of the largest business houses in Vaebington. lie who gave it was a partner in the concern, a man of large brain, of splendid physique. He ppoke without emotion. The tone and manner were those of the well-balanced man of affairs. Several times the astonishing narrative was interrupted. Bookkeepers and clerks came in for instructions upon matters of routine. "ow it was something about a piece of bank paper. "ext it was an indefinite order for goods. Without a moment's hesitation this nnaa dropped the story of hia experiences in epirit land to pas upon business questions. : Just as readi'y he went back to the narrative of bis psycholosrical studies. The pursuit of swriluaksm reaches perhaps -nahest or deapeat development in AVajLinton. Horton is a creat lieid for this son cfjtbine. It is doubtful if even at the Hub the believer? have pone so far into the mysteries as they have hero. Washington has the familiar and popular trades of spiritualistic phenomena. The public circe. the noisy manifestations, the dollar-sitting?, can he found by anybody. Bat besMea and beyond these are the private mediums, who sit only for the benetit'of the doctrine, for their own development and for thf fake of friends. Washington has semi-Drofessional mediums who are fce'ect in their custom. They csn be reached only through those with whom they have acquaintance. There re circles to which money will not secure admission The most interesting sittings are those which are inspired by no hope of pecuniary gain. It may be stated confidently that nowhere has the theory of the release of eu ering spirits from hell been carried into practice to the extent that it has been here. And one of the most interesting caes to which the idea has Leen applied is that of uiteau. "When we found tiuiteaa," said the narrator, "'he was in what ought to be called the spiritualistic hell. He was in mud up to his knee9. This was the meanest kind ot mud. It was tilth. Foul odors were constantly aricinz from it Snails and repulsive animal life abounded. Snakes were crawling about. There the pirit of Guiteau stood, unable of iteelf to cet away. There it had been from the time of death until we found it. The crime had heen very great. The punishment corresponded. It did not see possible that anything could be done for this unhappy spirit I ni l not go into all of the detail?, but wa found iui term's mother in the spirit land. She came forward and assumed a large measure of the responsibi.tty for her son's evil life. Her story was very wonderful. She remembered that in Ins infancy ehe had felt an aversion toward him. She did not want a chi.d. She attempted to make way with him. While she did not carry out her purpose, the force she ued towa- d her offspring in a tit of displeasure inflicted injury on the skull. nu tube of the brain was atlected. As the reu t of the malformation Guiteau went through life partially insane, and to a Je-ree irresponsible for what he did. Upon this statement we were enabled to take iiuiteau's spirit out of the mire. He was given over to his mothoi. She lailv promised to do all she could to atone for tfi wrong against motherhood, and her epirit id now aidiug bis ii progress through the spheres." There is eullicient reason why the name of the narrator should not be given. "If," said he, "my name appears in this connection I f-liall be overwhelmed with letters. ! could rot possibly attend to the request which would be male, iiy long study an 1 investigation I have arrived at the knowledge of this peculiar power. I am trying to do all of the good I can with it. I am giving to it what time I can spare. It wuuld be impossible- for ma to do more than I am doing an 1 therefore I do not wish my identity made puhde." There is b'mo sutlirint reason why the complete process by which the per in exercisai should not be given to the public. iVychologieal intiuencea in the hands of the unprincipled or the unskilled are dangerous. It is enough to tell that the expedition to the spiritualistic heli and the re eve of thn unhappy is the work cf two persons of gtronir mcdinrnistic gift.. The mediums work together, but they do it through a relationship of oDpositu faculties. It is a dual exercise. I'.ituerof th persons working alone co il-' aceom ul iw h nothing in this peculiar line of el!brt. Operating together the rtne ma ntain the hold on this life while the otlier penetrates hell, sees and reveals. Then the former receiving thereport direct the work of release through the latter. I'erhsp thi is not altogether clear to those who have never investigated spiritualistic phenomena. And probably it is wholly uninter -f ting to thoso who do not care to investigate. To not a few it will douhtlens appear utterly rneanmgleee Hut the long and hört of it is that here in Washington there are people who believe the connection can be made with hell, and that through the mediums working together spirits of the wicked may be released from the first condition of punishment and eent on their progression through the spheres. Washinglou spiritualists say that this is new phaaeof the doctrine. Thv do not Lnd in the books upon spiritualism that any such thing has been prnctice 1. The work of medium of opposite natures, in pair?, may not be altogether now, but it is of exceedingly rare occurrence. As for the release of spirit from torment, that is thought to be something entirely without precedent. The stateof Jay Gould's spirit immediately after the death of the body was one subject of inquiry by this double mediumship. "We came," said the narrator, "to a place inclosed by iron bars. It was not at all like a cell in a jail. It was rather like an inner office or chamber, of a bank perhaps, barred off by itself. These bars ran tip and down. They did not reach to the ceiling. They bad ornamental tips of solid gold. On the front of each tip was a magnificent diamond, which flashed like a star. I -oo icing between the bars we could see a scene of luxury. The richest of hangings and the costliest of furniture were there. On one tide of this apartment wss a couch supplied with the finest of linen

I and with anlendid silk coverings. There

lay Jay Gould. He was in a condition very much like troubled sleep. He did not appear to be wholly unconscious, but rolled and tossed about. The spirit of the millionaire was entirely alone. No one could come nearer than the bars. We could see nobody, but there was the sound of many voices. From unseen sources came continual reproaches. 'What did you ever do for us?' they seemed to ask. 'Did you help the poor?' 'Where in the training school you might have founded?' 'Is the world any better for your great wealth?' Then the clamor hushed, and there came the single wail of a child crying that it was 'so hungry.' After that the reproaches swelled in volume. 'You pot all your money from our labor and you never did anvthing for us." was said in a mighty chorus of deen voices. This continued as long as we were there The spirit moaned and moved from side to side of the couch as if half hearing the reproaches." "Did you undertake to give relief?" "No. The time was too soon. We did not feel that it would be justified. Perhaps wa could not have helped the spirit of Gould if we had tried It was only about eight or ten days after death. We bad not gone to hell in search of Mr. Gould but to do some service to the unhappy spirits there. My companion was tired and we were about to return to this world. 'Wait a minute,' my companion said, suddenly. 'There is something here we must see.' My companion then led the way as if guided by controlling influence to the place where we could see Jav Gould, as I have described." Discipline or punishment is administered to the wicked spirit immediately after death, according to the doctrine of spiritual sin. The sentence served, the progression through the spheres may be beguu. Thus Vauderbilt's spirit was, according to the discovery of Mrs. Hart, the medium, doomed to visit the tenement houses of New York City for six years as a penitential performance. This was to show the rich man what he might have done with his great fortune. After the wicked spirit has suffered the prescribed punishment it may need assistance to release it frem hell and start it on its course. That assistance is rendered through this dual membership. "I re nain conscious, with my reasoning faculties alert," eaid tue narrator. "My companion, who is highly sensitive, passes into a bodilv condition of total ignorance of what is transpiring. The soul of my companion leaves the body and goes into hell, as it is called. It seems to me sometimes as if my astral body goes with the soul and advises and encourages on the epot in the work of release." To the request for an account of more of these remarkable experiences he sai l: "We came not long ago to the cell of a murderer who had been hanged. . The cell was not locked. The door was latched. If the spirit had exerted itself it might easily have raised the latch and passed out. Hut the spirit seemed not to know it could help itself out. It lay in one corner of the c-dl still suffering. The soul looked in and said: 'Why. this is Fletcher." I bed never heard of Fletcher. The soul said: 'He killed his wife twenty years ago and was hanged for it in Philadelphia.' I aked if the epirit could not be released. There wag some difficulty. The soul of my companion seemed not io have the power to raise the latch I inquired what this meant. Soon I learned that my companion hfd known something of Fletcher in this world. The crime had been a peculiarly atrocious one. Fletcher was a worthless character. He had married a young woman with money ; had tpent all ttiat he couid get his hands on, and had slain his wife. My companion had at the time expressed the feeling that "the Hcotintlrei ought to be hung' I argued that the punishment of the spirit had been fulliciently prolonged. I pleaded for the forgiveness of the murderer in the mini of my companion. The forgiveness was granted mentally. Then the power came to the soul to lift the latch and to bring out the spirit of the murderer. The spirit was star.ed on its way turougn the spheres." Tha narrator turned to the desk and selected from a package a letter. As he unfolded it ho sail : "I took occasion to write to Philadelphia and make some inquiries about this Fletcher case Here is what my correspondent, who had oilirial knowledge of the affair, answers: 'Fletcher was hanged at Moyamensing prison on the 5th of Jauuary, 1873. He was a wifemurderer.' " "You see, it was just twenty years svo." continued the narrator. "The opinion my companion had expressed at the time, and had never changed, was a barrier which prevented the release of Fletcher's spirit by us." "Have you always been successful in these etforta?" "Once we failed utterly. It was in the case of the spirit of a thief. We had released other spirits of thieves, forty or fifty of them, and had sent them on their way rejoicing. We came to this one and it positively refused to accept our prolfered help. It said it had been put there, and there it must eta'. It argued that there coul J be no change for the better, and we were obliged te leave it. At another time when we released a number of thieves we found the spirit of a mere child. 1 1 seemed to bad to leave the spirit of the child unattended after the rdleae. So we led it a long distance until we came to a mounts n side. There we saw a cotiage, and in front of it the spirits of three or four women. One of these woment sprang up as soon as she saw the little spirit. She reocguized her offspring. We Jeft them together, she to guide the chiid-apirit in its upward course." "Do you ever encounter opposition from evil spirits?" "Yes; I remember that we found Home unfortunate creatures in a dungeon. They seemed to be surrounded bv a wall, ami in that wall was a grated opening. Down through the bars we could see the forms of these poor women. I said to my companion:. 'We must get them out.' My companion tried the grating, but could not move it. I tried to think of some plan of rescue. My companion became terror stricken, she eaid that evil spirits hsd come and were trying to drive her away. I encouraged her with all of ray influence to be firm. She struggled and put up her hands and twisted her head and moved her lips a if trying to speak. She was greatly agitated. I put forth every Lit ot spiritual strength that I could command. Sly companion gradually became calmer. She said the evil spirits had tried to gag her. They had been vanquished by some influence and had retired. That waa what the struggling and the motion of the lips meant. 'Look for some crevice in the wall,' I said. Soon she found an opening. 'Here is a little crack,' she said She pried and worked, taking out stone after stone. After a long time she had made a hole large enough to let out the women, one by one. They came forth and went forward toward the higher sphere.' Two or three times my companion cried, 'This is too difheu t. I can not do it.' But I kept urging, and, although she stopped several times for a few moment' rest, she resumed the work and after a long time she succeeded. These poor spirits could hardly thank us enough for wnat we had done. ' "Do the released generally recognize what cervice has been rendered them by you ?" "Ob. yes! Sometimes we find one spirit keeping another in he 1. In such case we can do nothing until we can persuade the

controlling one to consent to deliverance. We found a young man, a handsome, manly-looking fellow, standing in a mudbole with a fog constantly arising and enveloping him. The fog would sometimes part before his face and the young man would seem about to step out of the filth upon firm land. Then a beautiful girl would suddenly appear and curse the young man. The clouds would roll up and hide him again. This had been the condition of tüe two spirits for a long .time. We inquired the reason. The young man had deceived the girl, and this was the punishment he was sufTVriag for. the wrong. I int-rceded with the girl. I told her that vengeance had been satisfied. She was very hard at first. I pleaded for the young man's pardon. We talked over the whole story of their sinning. I tried to find out that perhaps there was fault on both sides. Gradually the hardness melted away. The girl forgave the young man. Immediately the fog rolled back. The spirit stepped out upon the firm dry laud. The young man and the young lady talked together as they walked on. They approached a littie box and knelt down, one on either side, and there they wept and prayed. I saw inside the box. The form of an infant was there. After a time the parents arose and went forward until they came to a kind of a grotto. In a niche was the statue of the Virgin and other Roman catholic emblems indicating an altar. These young people were catholics. They stopped and worshiped. Suddenly the statue ot the Virgin seemed to disappear. A priest stood in its place. He conducted the marriage ceremony. The wrong done in life was repaired. Tne young couple walked away with happy face. It was very beautiful." These things were net told freely Even after assured that his name need not be printed the narrator argued that the world at targe would not understand. "People," eaid he, "will call it trash. They will think that no sane person could have such experiences. I know very well the feeling with which those who have not investigated look upon spiriutalism. I was a materia. ist. 1 had seen a happy family circle broken up. I had seen the good and useful taken away and the evil and worthless left. 'There "is no God,' I had eaid. 'for no God could be so unjust.' Friends tried to attract me to spiritualism. I pittied them when they told me what they bad experienced. It seemed that I might do some service to them by exposing the fraud, for the whole doctrine was nothing else than a delusion, in my opinion. With this object in view, lent to Germany and to France and got the standard works on spiritualism. It was my intention to be very thorough in my exposure Well, I studied and investigated and be ame convinced that spiritualism was right and I was wrong." When Oliver Johnson was on the witness stand in the Beecher case he was asked if he wasn't a spiritualist. The intention was to cast discredit upon bis testimony. Mr. Johnson replied: "I will answer that question by saying I am a spiritualist, but not a d d fool." In much the same Bpint this Washington be.iever said : "Don't understand that I subscribe to all that passes for spiritualism. I do nothing of the kind. I accept no manifestations but upon the moot rigid scrutiny. There is a vast amount of fraud practiced. I do not even trust me Hums whom I know to have mediumistic power. Mediums are human. The temptation is very strong which prompts tht-m to attempt too much. A medium may do some things that are genu a nnd then add a lot of stuff which is not genuine. So I say I trust none ot them. I accept manifestations as gmuine when I have assured myself that they cou'd not be produced by trickery, but not o herwise. After making a moat thorough examination ot a cabinet, and proving to inyaell that it was empty, I saw ari-e in one corner a little mist or cloud. It was only five or six inches in height. This expanded and grew higher and higher until it was nearly as ta 1 as I am. Then it unfolded, you might say, aud there appeared the face of a beautiful Indian girl. The mist or cloud disclooed more and more until the whole form was visible, clothed, not in the Indian costume, but in garments of civilized fashion, of tin- texture and of bright colors. This Indian girl gazed in my face. She was as near to me as von are. Then eh stepped out and passed me. The conditions were perfect. 1 am as confident that I saw what 1 described as I am that we are now conversing. My advice to all is to accept nothing in spiritualism without the most rigid examination. The amount of deceit practiced in the name of spiritualism is al nost beyond conception. Yet there is truth, and it can be found by earnest heekers. I have seen many mediums. Nearly all of them have some real power. The investigator must learn to discriminate. He should neither reject all that the medium does because some of it is false, nor should he accept all the medium does because some of it is true. I have myself denounced many mediums for yie ding to teraotation and trying to do too much. Yet 1 obtained from these same mediums wonderful results

which conformed to test conditions, aud which I knew were genuine. So I say the line cannot be drawn too closely between the true and the false spiritualism. The belief is a beautiful and satisfying one. It i? not to be con iemned because, as in all other religions, some who practice or profess it are unworthy."

HER FACE WAS HER FATE.

THE PRETTIEST GIRL IN DEVONSHIRE AT SEVENTEEN Bemoans Hr Rrnnty at Flfty-F'lTt Heroine of Two Storie, Klther On Romantic Enough to Found a Couple of Tlays Upon Bribed to Com Over to Canada Site Mar. ries and Loe Her Husband for Nearly Forty Yearn. A New York special says fiction, even its most fanciful phases, is discomfited by truth as it is told in a studio. Walter Satterlee, the well-known painter, is a cousin of the rector and a pillar of Calvary church. Therefore his testimony may be accepted without the hesitation that might attend similar evidence from a lay and unrezenerate painter. Mr. Satterlee told the story simply, and without any idea that it would get into print, at a meeting of a number of N. A.'s. Some months apo an old Fnirhh woman knocked at his studio door and inquired if he could employ her as a model. It happened that at that time Mr. Satterlee was engaged in the composition of a picture for the chief figure of which the old lady was admirably suited. For several weeks she came to the studio every other day. "You must have been a handsome girl." remarked the painter politely. "Indeed, I have never seen a finer color or more clearly cut features in a person of your age." "I was very beautiful." replied the old lady, ingenuously. "When I was seventeen they eaid that Devonshire had no prettier ifirl than I was. It would have been better for me if I had not been so lovely. Then I might have married an honest man in my own station and been the happy mother of a farmer's children. Uat I was fairer than all other girls in the county, and that fatal gift of beauty attracted the attention of Lord , younger brother of the duke of . We loved each other faithful and true, lie waa an honorable younsr gentleman. We plighted our troth, and he gave me a ring and promised to marry me. But his proud re ativea frowned on the match, and the duke's steward came to me one day and said that the marriage could never take place. I cried a good deal, but the steward said he would make it worth my while to leave England. So he gave me 1,000 and a ticket to Canada. On the ship I met a gentleman who loved me, and on reaching (Quebec we cot married." . At this point the old la ly began to weep. "Dear iue." said Mr. Satterlee, sympathetically. "This is a very remarkable history, even for a model. Was he a vjliain?" "Indeed, no," continued she. "He was a noble gentleman. But he had no business and only invented things that were of no use to anybody. He couldn't sell them and after spending all my 1,000 we became very poor. One day my huab&nd got desperate and said he was going out to get some work if he had to be a policeman. That is nigh on to live and thirty years ago and I have not seen him since. I heard afterward that he could not get any work and had shipped as a sailor. I suppose he was drowned, for we loved each other so that if he had been alive he would have come back to me. Then, having no husband and no money, I went into service until I grew too oid, aud one day somebody s aid that I had a face like a picture, so I came to pose as a model.'' Mr. Satterlee sent his picture to a Western exhibition and was gratified to learn that it was sold. Simultaneously with this agreeable news came a letter from the purchaser asking the nrtut if he had painted the central figure ot the old lady from imagination. "Because," continued the writer, "the face had so stronj an interest for me that I bought the picture on account ot it." A few days later Mr. Satterlee received a telegram from Chicasro, from his correspondent, entreating him urgently to have the oid model in his studio at a certain hour on a certain day. The hour and the day came, bringing the old English woman to pose, as bhe believed, for another picture. Suddenly a oft tap was heard on the door, and on Mr. Satterlee going to it he was confronted by a tine old gentleman. The next thing that astonished the artist was a scream from the aged model, a cry of joy from the old gentleman, and Mr. Satterlee found his two guests in each other's arms. "God blensyoo, air," said the old gentleman, huskily. "We owe it 11 to you. I heard she was dead thirty years ago. When I came back from that unfortunate ova?e I couldn't tin-i her anywliere, and I left Canada and went to Chicago. I have made a tidy bit of money, and, thanks to you, sir, I've got my dear wife again." The old gentlencsn pinned his wife's rawrged shawl over her bosom gallantly and the strangely reunited couple went to Chicago on the next train. If Walter Saterlee will go to the world's fair next summer, he will be the gu ?st of honor in one of the finest houses in Kvanston. Wanted Simn Kxriteiuent. Street A Smith's O.iod Newt.

America is sadly in need of a native Ruskin to pronounce a forcible opinion upon the proposal to utilize Niagara for electrical purposes, and to "develop a manufacturing city about a mile above the faMs." No doubt the prospect of being able to take out of the water.a 1 a force "representing an annual income of 2,500,Ouo" is a gratifying one from a purely commercial standpoint.

Sir Robert Ball, at the Royal institute on Saturday afternoon, delivered the lat of hii lectures on astronomy. He took for hia subject "The fitara," those orbs which, though appearing so small to ua because of their immense distance, are, in reality, pre at and shining suns. If, be eaid, we were to escape from the earth into space, the moon, Jupiter, Saturn, and eventually the sun woul I become invisible; but, far aa we are from the etara, they still Rhine brightly to us. Many of these stars are heavier than our sun. For example, Mizar, the middle star in the tail of the great bear, is forty times as heavy as the sun. To the naked eye there are five or six thousands of theoe heavenly bodies visib'e. In all probability thore are worlds revolving around them. Sixty-one Cygni ia tbe nearest star to ua in thin part of tbe eky. Alpha Centauri, in the constellation centaur, in the south ern hemisphere, is the nearect of all the tare. The suo is a. long way of! 93.000,(H)0 miles. ow,taultiply this by 200,000 and the result is, roughly speaking, 20,000.000,000,000. And thiü is the distance we art from Alpha Centauri. Take the speed of an electric current, which is nearly the same as that of light 180,000 miles a second suppose a message to be eent at this speed from a point on the eartn's surface, it would go seven times around the earth in one second. Again, let it be suppoeed that mensaves were sent off to tbe different heavenly bodies. .To reach the moon at this rate it would take about one Jeoond. In eight minutes a mes.ae would get to the sun, and, allowing for a couple of minutes delay, one could send a message to the sun and get an answer all within twenty minutes. But to reach Alpha Centauri it would take three years ; and as this is tbe nearest of the stars, what time must it take to get to the others? If, when Wellington won the battle of Waterloo in lSlö, tbe news bad been telegraphed off immediately, there are some stars so remote that ii would not yet have reached them. To go a step furter, if in 10 Hi the result of the Conquest had been wired to some of these tars, the message would still be on its way. If the tidings of the first Christmastide in Bethlehem had been sent to the stars, there are some orbs, situated in the furthermost depths of space, which couid not receive the nessage for a long time yet. Struck It with av Saw. A horseshoe imbedded in an ok tree was discovered at Albanv, Wash., by a man with a steam saw. The borne-shoe was entirely out of eight and caused considerable surprise when the saw struck it. Tbe ahoe some time bad been placed in the crotch of a small oak grub, which had grown up around iL Hound t Be Around. IStreet A Praith a Good News. First Boy "Whenever there's a picture of two lovers, fliere e alwaya a lot of little bovi around with wings. Wot'a they for?" Second Boy "I guess they is her little brothers what's dead." A Silly riiraee. Louisville Western Recorder. That "heart failure" has become a farce. Heart disease can kill as can lung disease. But, of course, a man cannot die until hia heart ceases to act. The papers might as well say he died for lack of breath. Its I'sefulneaa Gone, f Street A Smith's Good News.l Mamma "Why don't you play with that clock-work elephant Santa Claus brought you?"
