PARIS "HOTELS CROWDED. d be-,us- Although the season for European travel is only in its beginning, Pans hotels are already crowded to overflow ing. American tourists who failed, long ago, to make reservations are find acing it wcllnigh impossible to find commodations. Many hotels of the higher class report that thev are booked to capacity until late July or early August. Americans arriving in Pans who have not been forehanded in several cases have suffered aetua! hardship. One woman rejfbrted to the officials of upon whose Jh steamship compauv steamer she went to France that she had called at twenty oue hotels without being able to find a room. A canvass of smaller hotels has disol 2000 closed an available supply rooms, but this number is not sufficient to promise much relief. Generally, Paris hotel proprietors admit that they do not know how to care for Americans arriving in France. It is as well, in v iew of these facts, that the lack of shipping facilities is serving to restrict the number of transatlantic voyagers. There ace now be tween forty and fifty ships in service between American and French ports. An estimate of the number of passengers these vessels can transport fixes the total at 12,000 to 13,000 a month.

Judge and Jurori and audience alt and llaten In raapectful alienee whit th ghost of th dead woman taatlfte that h herself procured th Iron bar with which ah was killed, that alia had Intended to kill her husband with It. and that ha had great provocation to kill her. This sounds Ilka a story of olden times. It might have happened In any of the great aces of superstition whsn men believed In the supernatural eves mors than they did In tha natural.

Th fear la atlll latent In us. waiting for a chance to express Itself. For example, tha incident related above happened, not In th mlddl acts or In a fairy tala, but In th supreme court of th District of Columbia a few days ago. Th dead woman's mother testified that aha had gone to saveral medium, had conversad with th ghost of her daughter and had so gotten the oaughters story of what happaned. Still mors astonishing, she testified that an assistant United States attorney had advised her to consult msdtumf. When you take this In. connection with th fart the that supreme court evidently listened to the ghost conversation a part of Ih testimony, you cannot blink at th conclusion that a ghost has bean admitted to a court of Justice In thp JLnlted States has ome'scaln to play a formal and recognised part In th affair of men In a country which calls itself civilised. Of course, the whole question of spiritualism Is here Involved. There are many Intelligent and sincere people who believe that the existence of ghosts who can communicate with us haa been proved. Sir Oliver lxxlge. a scientist of reputation, is one of theml He proceeds He says by a process of elimination. there are uertaln phenomena which cannot be explained In any way except a ommunlcatlons from the dead. Nearly all other scientists disagree with him They say these things can easily b explained In other ways. At best Sir Oliver I,odge has advanced an Interesting hjpothaaia. But. whethe- - It be true that the dead th with survive and communicate living or not. th question Is arising more Insistently every day aa to how much reliance we ahould place on the advice of theve ghosts. No only have thousands r f persons all over the world accepted the belief In spirits, but they have added to that belief a faith that spirits ar Hlwavs wise and truthful and that they are practically consistent. ARE GHOSTS RELIABLE? But Is there any reason for this latter If a notorious liar diet and defaith where communicaparts for that limbo live Is there any reason to tive spirit believe that he will there become a Will death paragon of truthfulness make a fool wise, or a malicious person kindly? x certain Out In the west there placer deposit of gold which has been th grave of many fortum. One man after another ha tried to get th! gold and all have failed. Finally along came an Inventor with & moat lngenloue and expens.ve plan for getting the gold He had abtolut faith in It. It appeared that he was In communication with the had ghost of his dead sister, and that she told Imparted this plan to him and had him It was sure to succeed He spent every cent he owned and couJd borrow on the plan and lost It all. The ghost was wrong. Very likely If the sister had been alive she would have given just the same advice, ar.d very likely this man would have replied that women know nothing about mining and would have kept his money in his pocket. But since his alstcr had been translated to the spirit world he reasoned In some ohs'ure manner that she had there become an expert on hydraulic mining. The event Indicated that he wa mistaken. Indeed, there seems to he absolutely no reason to believe that ghosts are any mote truthful or Infallible than human beings, and If believer in spirits would only keep this In mind a great and growing burden of trouble would be saved the human race. Consult the record of the Society for Psychic Research, upon which the whole argument for sptrltiam Is based. You will find little evidence that ghosts know more than humannot be- a ing or are more tuthful. and little evidence that they are picayune and sometimes malevolent, like the living. Is it not well, therefore, to take of your dead friends t ie communication and relatione with a grain of salt, the same as you take those of the living? DEAD. BUT TROUBLESOME. Here is another example of a meddleho sought to make trouble. some ghost inA young and attractive Widow wa vited by an older woman who lived in to in her Join house the same boarding some ouija board excursions to the land of the dead.
