Show Spirits Sc&ml the Editor. We don't lieUeve in spirits In any way, manner, sliape or form but Wednesday evening quite a party aB- ! tembled at the" residence of Mr. J. R. Forrester to have a table rapping. a:id tho results of that meeting were wonderful wonder-ful Tho table used was on ordinary 1 wooden one and the circle was fonned by Borne of the party seating themselves i around It and placing their hands in such a manner as lo form a circuit. For ! some lima tho table remained unmoved, but after a little moro time it licgnn to bob a'oout and move from ono end of the room to the other. Then tho medium said that the spirits were nt work. Of course wo didn't believe in that, but as the tuble raised up from the floor cold chills passed up and down our back and a lit of trembling seized hold upon us. We didn't have any confidence In' tlie spirit part of the performance; understand, under-stand, but we trembled all the same. At one time (he table was raised a considerable consider-able distance from the floor, falling with such force as to brenk it to pieces. Some of tho names given by the spirits were only known by ono of tho party in the room; at other times tlie names were I unrecognized. Tho messages delivered i were, some of them, qiu'to startling, and wero enough to niako a believer of tho i most incredulous. Verily, some strange j things happen nt. these meetings, and ! they are things which wecan t explain at : alL Alijany (Gu.i News and Advertiser. ', |
