Friends of Madame Cecilia Gustaf, the telepathist and delver in other; occult sciences who has been operat-! ing in Bismarck for several weeks,| resent the implication that the ma- dame proved fallible in telling Mrs. Falconer that she (the seeress) saw Joe Matthews, a Bismarck fighter, ly- ing dead on a French battlefield. The trouble, say friends who un- derstand the inner workings of telep-! athy, was that Madame Gustaf was! sent gallivanting around France to discover Joe Mathews when, as de- velopmentg prove, he was actually in Germany at the time. They also in- sist that the madame did not say that she saw Joe lying sure-enough dead, but merely that he appeared to be dead, and that she added that those who seemed to be dead sometimes lived again. It is claimed that Madame Gustaf; has made some really remarkable pre- dictions’ and prophesies, and she is said to be building up a large clientele here among folk who believe in the! supernatural.
