FOR THE

PERMANENTLY ESTABLISHED

A STATEMENT FROM THE PENCE HALL COMMITTEE.

TESTIMONIAL OF INVESTIGATORS.

To the chagrin of the prejudiced op posers and pretended exposers of mediums, the managers ©f tho seances held daily in Penco's Hall, havo after four years of diligent perseverance reached point in the development of Anna Stewart's mediumship, that proves ma terialization true beyond a doubt to every reasonable mind who dares to inventigate her powers. By their pro tecting care the faithful band, under the leadership of Charley Smith, have developed phenomena in mediumship which boasting exposers can not dupli cate or explain away. It is due to the many friends by whose counsel, aid and sympathy, the managers were encouraged to persevere against fearful opposition, that they should know, the confidence heretofore imposed in her as an honest and worthy woman remains lirin, and as a writing and materializing medium, she stands above and beyond the reach of base caluminators and unjust persecutors, bearing aloft the ban ner of success, which unfurled floats majestically over their heads and flaunts triumphantly in their faces. The last of the many hitherto frequent and ineffectual attempts to expose Anna Stew'art and provo her materializations fraudulent was made twelve months ago. The conspiracy was entered into secretly by Dr. L. D. Higgins, Capt. S.

P. Moonev, T. II. McCoy and D. F. Overholt, all of Pana, Ills. The doctor, jn the council, was made the leader and chief director, at whose suggestion G. B. Wilson, of Clarksville, Tenn., a most daring and unprincipled skeptic, was made a confidant ana proved to be the right man in the right place. Destitute of principle ho was ready in the event of an emergency to adopt and carry out to the extent of his ability, any measure however unjust, iow and groveling if it but promised the appearance of a successful expose. "Lampblack," the agent often used to expose mediums by those ignorant of the law,was tho means adopted by the enterprising investigators. It is known to all advanced spiritualists that the Davenport Bros., Allen boy medium, and a host of other relia? ble mediums, were under condemnation of fraud detected by the application of colored matter. The law of transfer has under crucial test conditions long since been established, and the innocent mediums no longer held guilty by those •toho havo investigated but alas for the poor mediums, it is not so with the masses who are ignorant of the progress made in the investigation of tho laws governing mediumship. In the published report of Dr. Higgins A Co. it was stated that with hands besmeared witl^ lamp-black they grasped those of the representatives and at the close the blackened hand of the medium proved tho fraud. Tho report was favorably received and publicly given thereto by the secular press throughout the northwest.

Justice to the medium demanded of t\er committee an explanation which appeared in tho Chicago Time, Feb. 17th, 1870. Tho law explanatory of the transfer theory was introduced, and in the oomments it vas further shown that by the interposition ofanuther law they, the spirits, had the power to intercept the coloring matter in the transit. The evidence stronglv favored the theory that in the case of Dr. Higgins Co., the second law was interposed and the black found on the mediums hand, which, by the way, was scarcely perceptible, was applied directly by Wilson. The adroitness manifested in manipulating lior hand Immediately on opening the cabinet door at the oloso of the seanco strongly favored that opinion. The advance report afforded the prejudiced who believed the Stewart medium and her committee annihilated by the P^naites a general jubilee. During the interim thoescxlapian of Pana became famous, and he was for a limited time tho happy recipient of numerous letters, asking his opiuion of the published expose and the status of "those Spirituals in 7erre Hatitf" That the intelligent public may know the class of minds who are in tho expose business one of his replies to an Inquiring friend has been selected, which the typo is request ed to print from the original copy verbatum, et literatu, etspellatim:

SPIRITS!

Materialization Through the Mediumship of Anna Stewart,

PANA, Ills., Feb. 15th, T6.

MR. ATKINSON: Your not fob 9th Recelvd asking IT those things Did accur as stated in the paper in relation to Mrss Stewarts Seance it is all correct as stated in the paper I was la terrehaute A pressent when all those things Did occuf and know it to be tru as stated by the paper you ask what I think of tho affair I Regard those Spiritnlas at that place as one of the most shamful low down humbugs Ever aloued to ue cared an By tho human famley. DR. HIGGINS.

The committee leaving Doctor Higgins and his allies to the mercies of a generous and forbearing public, will now revert, briefly to tho power spirits hold over niatter,aigressing in the premise to explain that in the conference meetings the session is devoted to consultation and experimentation. More than one hundred such meetings havo been

held dnrlng the last four years, and it should be recorded in letter! of gold that she willingly submitted throughout the M»ries without a murmur to every text condition Imposed and further her every move in the private and public meetings has during the last four vears been carefully noted and no Indication of fruud has yet been detected. In tho domestic and social relations of life she has proven to be honest and truth tul. But to the subject "the power spirits hold over matter." First—By disintegration the medium Is freed from the uiost intricate fastenings, tho rope being removed and tho knots, ^op* *J*d all afterward found intact. Second Badges,scarfs, neckties, etc.,are by some unknown power spirited away and by request returned at any future Third—Tho materialised form of the spirit disappears by vanishing in view, and more wonderftil still, the physic*! body of the medium is dematenalised and all traces thereof, for a time, lost in the imponderable element®. Passing

TEKKB

over the phenomenon of collecting and distilling from the atmosphere tM noted fragrance of rare flowers, cologne wa

wine and other fluids, time forbid1 ding a notice thereof, the Jesuit of applying colored matter to, the materialised band or to that of.the medium, the prime subject calling out this article, will for theinterett or tho unprejudiced thinking minds receive a brief considertion. First—Colored material applied to the hands, feceotany part of a materialized form, will in conformity to a natur al law in dematerializing pass directly to and appear on the corresponding part of the medium. Second—By the introduction of aj second law or force the matter in the transit may be intercepted and its natural course averted. Third— The coloring matter may be dissipated and fail to appeal- on either subject. Finally the deductions demonstrating the above theory are based on the following, the result of repeated and careful investigation. Firet—Colored matter on the

hands

of the medium was not

disturbed in the process of making up spirit hands. Second—Colored matter applied to spirit hands failed on tbrowidg off the improvised form to reach the medium. Third—Coloring imparted to spirit hands may be transferred to and made to appear on those of the medium and vice versa. Lastly—at the close of the investigation the matter used was dissipated and the hands of each spirit aud medium free therefrom. In conclusion, the 'privilege to test the phenomenon in either or all of the phases referred to is hereby granted to the honest investigator. ALLEN PENCE,

AS. HOOK, J-Com. SAML. CONNER.

P. S. The 6th day of Feb., 1877 being the first anniversary of the Higgins' expose, it was proposed by the spirit, band to give, at the public seance on that evening, an exhibition of their power over matter, the result of which is explained in the following statement: The paint used was composed of linseed oil, and spirits of turpentine. The list of names, if deemed necessary, could be extended, there being at the seance twenty persons, all of whom were witnesses, and doubtless would willingly add their testimony, an opportunity offering. COMMITTEE.

TESTIMONIAL.

To the public be it known that we, the undersigned investigating visitors o* Anna Stewart's powers as a medium, witnessed at the public seance on last evening nine full materializations, seven of the number, on being recoginized shook hands with their friends, some of them conversed in an audible voice, others in a loud and distinct whisper We further testify that each one, on appearing, showed the medium in her seat and on one occasion she came out with the apparition. We also saw the spirit form (^materialize, and further, the experiment of blacking the bands was introduced, and resulted as described in the above report. The manuscript pertaining thereto was read in our presence previous to signing this article.

IDLE ACTORS.

It is the Crust of Idleness that most of the Stage People Are Now Gnawing. [N. Y. Herald, Sunday.]

The haunts of actors and musicians in this city are now unusually full of un employed artists. Since the "hard times" set in with the panic of 1873 there have not been so many professional people without engagements as at the present time, and many excellent performers on both the lyric and dramatic stage are verging on absolute want. At Moretti's, a cheap cafe in Fourteenth street, exhibiting the marks of maccaroni all over it, there gather from day to day a host of singers bearing distinguished names, who, can only unite in singing "Waiting" and "Sweet By and By." At the Belvedere House, in Irving Place, there is a family of prime donne hoping that some manager will appear to demand their sweetest notes. At the Albion Club, in Fifteenth street, and at the Union Place Hotel there is always a host of unemployed actors. It is impossible to turn one of the angles in Union Square without jostling an idle tenor only to be tossed against an equally idle "leading man," and in crossing Broadway there is more danger of being run down by an aimless "heavy" than a maddening stage. "Old men" and "juveniles," "old women" and "walking ladies," baritones and bassos, sopranos and contraltos crowd the thoroughfares, meeting their old-time managers without hope that anything will turn up to relieve their distresses. The managers areas badly off as the artists, and one of these, just returned from the road," declared the other day that it would be impossible to succeed with a traveling company, even if the actors were willing to work without pay. The theatrical and musical business has not been so bad In many years. Most of our theaters are empty. With the exception of Theodore Thomas' orchestra, the Philharmonic and oratorio societies, the Essipoff concerts, and a week's musical festival given by Mr. James Morrlssey, al the Academy of Music, there has been no music in New York this season. The traveling opera companies, with the exception ot the Kellogg troupe, have disbanded, and nearly all the dramatic companies on the road have fallen te pieces. The members of these unfortunate combinations have found their way to the metropolis to swell the army of the unemployed, and Chicago is as full of Idle actors as New York. In every direction the outlook is a gloomy one, and the worst feature of the prospect is that nobody can tell when the clouds will break.

TITAT CHEW OF TOBACCO. [Cough'sSL Louis Lecture.1 Tobacco chewing was a bard habit to break off. Thero was once a man who made up his mind to quit chewing and be flung his tobacco away. He got gentian and chewed it be bought chamomile flowers, he chewed toothpicks and quills, and still nothing satisfied him. His mouth tasted as it it was full of oold cream. The very tip of his tongue seemed to curl over in the intensity of his desire for tobacco. He wanted it— oh how badly. And so he bought another piece. He held it up and looking at it said: "Are you my master, or am I yours?" Yum-m-m-m. I want you. [Another glaring ga*e at the slab.] But I'm a man you're a weed—you re a thing. [Look sgaln.] Yum-m-m-m. Yen alack devil, rll master you if I die for it. It shall never be said of me that I as a man am mastered by a thing. Yum-m" [puts it into hia pocket.] Every time he wanted a chew, he'd take it out and talk to it, and it got easier and easier, till at last he threw it away, and the glory of the vlctorp paid for all the suflering

A "STA GE WAIT.

In 1837, when W. rf. 8m stage manager'ol the National, TWm^af'omer leader of the orchestra, and .Charles Lehr soenic artist, Charles H.' Eaton was playing an engagement tb#ref during which was produced in much aplendor WUiVU V» JttVUUWU -rof new scenery and costumes, the trage dy of Bernardo del Carplo, written lo Mr. Eaton by Henry F. Harrington,

then a lawyer, afterward a clergyman. J. P. Adams played the King, and Harry Smith. Del Castro. In ene scene the King Is discovered alone, awaiting the arrival of Bernardo. But Bernardp did not come on in time. So Adams .filled up the pause by rapid walking across the stage and extemporizing in this manner: "Methinks 'tis time Bernardo should arrive. His Highness seems delaved. (Then in a whisper at the wings, "Where's Charles Eaton?") I hear his footsteps in the corridor. (Crossing the stage. "Where's Charley Eaton? Tell him to hurry up!") My ears deceive me, 'twas the balcony. (Walking up the stage, "Where's ^Bernardo? I cant play the

whole

and

play myself.") *Twas

but the wind. Perchance in the piazza. (Walking to and fro in great agitation.) What! neither balcony, piazza, nor the corridor? Then 'twas the vestibule!' It is uncertain how many othter places the king might have continued to imagine Bernardo to be in, but at this crisis Harry Smith (Do Castro) walked hastily on

addressed the audience: "Ladies

and gentlemen, Gen. Bernardo del CarDio craves your patience lor about ten minutes, as the fastenings of one of his new dresses were accidentally omitted. He is now in the wardrobe having them sewed on. The hooks are on already, and as soon as ho gets bis eyes about him tho play will proceed." ThenDe Castro, supposed to be the niortal enemy of the king, locked arms with him in a most friendly manner, and they walked off, the curtain falling amid shouts and laughter.—[Boston Commercial Bullotin.

FLOGGING YOUNG LADIES IN THE LEBANON HIGH SCHOOL. The Lebanon Pioneer thus describes the manner in which school discipline is enforced in that town: "It appears that a law existed that notes should not be passed from one pupil to another during school hours. On Monday,, in the fore part of the day, Mr. Demaree (one of the teachers) was called from his room to go home for a while, and left one of the pupils in command and as usual, the young folks took advantage of his absence to have a little fun, and, we understand, violated the rule of the school upon the note question. But when he came back to his command he found that his written laws had been trampled upon, and such insubordination could not be borne. So he prepared a whipping post in another room, and called a witness or so to see it well done. Then he would go to his room and call out a young lady of sixteen years, and take her into the room that had been set apart as the whipping department, and in the presence of one or two of her comrades he would deal out his corporal punishment upon her. When done he would send her he me, and go to his flock for another victim, and this was repeated eighteen or twenty times. One or two of the young ladies had reached the age of eighteen years. A few young gentlemen were among the punished.

BEECHER AND STORR6. FN. T. Cor. Boston Journal.! The masses crowd to hear Beecher at night, while Doctor Storrs preaches to a select hand full. Beecher comes into church rosy, buoyant, ehilerated—shies his soft bat under the chair, kicks off his rubbers, unrobes himself, and without the slightest attempt at private devotions, seizes his hymn book and is prepared for action. Doctor Storrs goes into his robing room, prepares himself for his pulpit, puts on his gown, comes in reverently, walks up the pulpit stairs slowly and solemnly, and maintains an appropriate mannerism throughout all the service. The congregation rise up often, sing many times, and adopt a quasi liturgy and responsive service. For

twenty-five years these two men lived and worked side by side. Saul and Jonathan were not more firmly knit in friendship. Now they would not speak if they should meet on the same foot bridge.

HOW ANNA DICKINSON MAKES L@V£. [Burlington Hawkeye.]

Anna Dickinson is a failure in the love scenes of her own plays. When the experienced actor slides tip to her and reaches his arms around her rigid waist, she grabs him by the wrist and holds him off at arms' length while she reaches the malting moment, and lowers her head to let it droop upon his shoulder, the constrained action is so like the gesture of a venerable William goat in the act of assisting a teasing boy over a pasture fence, that the audience gleefullv look to see the unhappy lover butted clear over into the orchestra fiddles, and there is a general murmur of disappointment when he braces his feet and receives the drop of her head with a scarcely audible grunt

A MAN SUPPOSED TO BE DEAD REVIVES.

?^"[Troy

Times.]

The announcement of the death of Dr. C. M. Bishop, of Hoosick Falls, was printed in the Whig this morning. He had been very ill with typhoid fever, and yesterday morning called his relatives and friends to his bedside and apparently died. His death was made public, but within a short time a watcher thought he discovered signs of life. A physician was summoned, andresascitatlon followed. To day the doctor is slightly better, with some hopes of recovery. Dr. Bishop is about thirty-five years old, and a member of the Kens-

t- DIVORCE IN WISCON&IJSi [Chicago Times, February 9.] When a man drives bis wife to insanity by inhuman treatment or other violations of the marriage covenant, it is the opinion of the Wisconsin Senate that he should then be allowed to free himself from all further trouble about her, by obtaining a decreo of divorce. At least that would seem to be the most obvious moaning of the bill passed yesterday, making insanity sufficient ground for divorce. The bill is atrocious in principle and sentiment.

If N E I A O A I Inter-Ocean. Uncle Jimmy Williams, Governor of Indiana, is becoming absolutely famous for his riotous living. He has napkins on his table every day, and clean towels are put on the family rack three times a iek. Not only this, but James has ne to giving receptions and hops, and voice of the profane fiddle is heard every week in the gubernatorial mansion. This is terrible.

WOMEN'S DRESSES.

THE INELEGANCE OFfELEGANCE.

The .New 'York correspondent of the Cincinnati limes says: The weatnei for the {ast few days Das been beauUful, and, notwithstanding the sloppy pavements and almost impassable street crossings, crowds of women have tbronfpd the principal thoroughfares all day long. Many of them present a most groti»que appearance, as they attempt to keep their long sairts free ef slush and mud. There certainly is nothing graceful in the way the feminine

art of creation dispose of what should the flowing part of their raiment. It is drawn up with elastics, pinned up with pins, and, more frequently, caught by the hand and dragged around to one side, forming a tight band behind above the boot tops, and flapping back and forth against the muddy boots.

Here a red petticoat* is seen, there a blue, and soiled, very soiled, white ones, elegantly trimmed, bear unmistakable marks of what they have been subjected to. Some women scorn any effort to keep their garments pure. There aro two now. One trails a black velvet through the dirt with vagueindifference. It spreads out at least afoot behind her. One can fancy what has gathered between the end of that tr il and her stockings. Perhaps she is going to the reception on the block above if so, her skirts will soil the carpets. The other has on some sort of woolen garments, but it is equally as effectual a streetsweeper.

As I sit hero, the world in miniature passes before me. There is not a moment that there are less than twenty or thirty people in sight,in almost all kinds of dress, in almost all conditions of life. It is a study to note their different manner, and tho way they carry themselves. Looking on and peeing the trouble the women have with their clothes, while the men go along so careless and unconcerned, with no flop about their feet, I can but wonder why a "decent respect for the opinion of tnaakind" does not induce us to shorten ourgarments.

Trains should be admissible «nly in a parlor, and even there are out of place for dancing, and when held up in the round dances, are apt to show linings soiled by contact with carpets.

There certainly is nothing more inelegant and in worse taste than the way the young ladies draw up their surplus of skirt when whirling in the waltz. I could but note the difference the other night between the easy floating of a skirt a little long, and the gathering up of yards of expensive material, to be crushed in the hands of themselves or their partners.

am WHAT A WOMAN CAN DO *l{ [Cincinnati Times,] Here is an incident apropos of the times. A very handsome woman went toa down-t«wn merchant, the other day to procure employment of some kind. She made herself very agreeable before

Ea«l

referring her request. The merchant no employment to give her knew of none she could get such applications were hourly made to him, but he was sorry, to say, iN vain.

After making his little speech, with the eagerness men generally eviuce to g8t rid of what they l'ear will uot easily be get rid of, the merchant began ta button up his coat. The lady kept^he seat he had handed her when she came in, but said nothing. The gentleman went on to expatiate on the times: ''Look at these accounts, madam," he took up a bulgy parcel, "I have sent collector after collector out, and can not get a cent. People won't pay."

Will you let me try?" the lady said. Why, you could do nothing with them." "Just let me try. Give me a few," was the reply.

To get rid of her the merchant gave her some dozen or so. In a few days the lady returned for her c?mmission. She bad collected the most oe thero. The merchant says she is the best collector he ever had. zn &
