THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., THURSDAY, JULY 8, “ TON, CO S DODCES MEDIM Won’t Join Other Spooks in Recording for Smithsonian. By the Associated Press. LILY DALE, N. Y, July 8.—Spir- {tualist spokesmen said a Sioux Indian chief, 300 years dead, along with Chi- nese and French spirits, made elec- trical recordings for Uncle Sam’s eth- nological experts yesterday. But “Tony,” the Italian comedy element in the spirit repertoire of Horace S. Hambling, natty British medium, couldn't be reached. » Hambling said the Indian, “Moon | Trail,” took command of his vocal chords and made a 10-minute record- | ing that will be sent to the Bureau of Ethnology at Washington. With it will go, he said, a 5-minute | “message” credited to “Ruan Fo,” the Chinese, and another from the Frenchman whom Hambling failed to identify. “Tony” Won't Come. He said he tried for several minutes | to get the rollicking “Tony” to the microphone, but couldn't locate him in the “spirit world.” At this spir- | {tualist colony’s first recording session | last week, “Tony" joked with his audi- | ence and called the recording “a scratching machine.” R. G. Pressing, editor of the Dale | News. said he and a critical audience of eight watched the record-making. | “Moon Trail” addressed himself in | » English first to his “dear children of | earth,” Pressing reported | “'Of course, several of the Indian | words cannot be placed in today’s| Sioux language.” he quoted from “Moon Trail's” message. “Even the English language has| changed much in 300 years as com- | pared with the English we know today. I will try to remember the tongue I have not used for so long.” Regular Tongue Twister. Here, Pressing said. “Moon Trail” indicated he might have trouble twist- ing Hambling's unaccustomed vocal cords into the strange language of the old-time Sioux. Hambling said he transmitted the *messages” while in a complete trance. “Naturally, I'm not able to speak Indian, Chinese or rench in my hormal state,” he said. “I will be as interested as any one to hear the out- | eome of these records in Washington.” 1 DEAD, 5 OVERCOME | IN COAL MINE FIRE Fan House Blazes From Short- g Circuit, Smoke Blows Into Air Ducts.
