Sir Arthur declared that the mira- cles of the Bible, which nave driven many from the churches, will be the very thing that will bring them back again, through the evidence which il | spiritualism is collecting ot existence in the hereafter. The miracles of Jesus, he said, are given explanations under natural law by means of spiritualistic phenomena. As the early Christian churches had three mediums to every pastor, so the churches of the future will return \to the use of the mediums and the demonstration, * through _them, of spiritual existence, he said. Exhibits Spirit Photos. Sir Arthur illustrated his lecture the faces of the dead as they re- | turned to this matérial world through the agency of ectoplasm, that mys- terious mucoid substance given off by materializing mediums and in which the spirits are enablea to clothe themselves, so as to manifest on this material plane. . Photograph _after photograph, all presented by Sir Arthur with an evi- dent sincerity, ranged from the weird to the beautiful. He showed pictures of a little boy's head, sketchily mani- , kissing his father behind the ear; of a beautiful girl, the daughter of a local scientist; of dead soldier sons and other dear ones. Pictures showing the ectoplasm it- self perhaps proved most interesting. These revealed a sticky, gelatinous mass issuind® from the medium and flowing into the air, it being declared by the lecturer that mediums during this manifestation gave off as much as fifteen pounds, which was shown on the scale. = Sir Arthur said that he has bot seen and touched the ectoplasm, and that the sensation when he touche the substance was not pleasant. The substance has been analyzed, he de- clared, although with great difficulty, since if any considerable quantity of it were suddenly taken away the me- dium, deprived of so much of vita substance, would probably dle. Describes Seances. Seances, he continued, must neces- sarily take place in the dark, owing to the vital character of the ecto- plasm, which, like the sensitive pho- tographic plate, is destroyed by light. It is the ectoplasm, Sir Arthur said, Which, by being shot out by the me- dium from the mucoid membranes, causes rapping, lifts tables and per- forms other phenomena. Sir Arthur told of the rise of —— MUTUAL IMPROVEMENT BODY OPENS CONFERENCE Two-Day Session Will Conclude With Banquet Tomorrow Night.
