The queen’s way-| ward son, former Crown Prince Carol, did not make his appearance. Although partially reassured by| General Angelesco, head of K|ng! Ferdinand’s military household, re- garding the condition of the king, it is the purpose of Queen Marie to remain fn Paris only just long cnough to rest after the voyage| from the United States and perhaps to do a little shopping before pro- ceeding to Bucharest. She desires| to be present at a council of doc- tors who will try to decide what can be done for King Ferdinand. Pro- fessor Hartman, an eminent Pari- sian surgeon, has been called 1n\’ consuitation by the royal physicians | at Bucharest and has left for lhei Rumanian capital, accompanied by a radiologist. Opposed To Carol General Angelesco and other Ru- | manian court officials here seemed | today to prefer that Queen Marie| should forego a meeting with her| gon, Carol. Doubt was expressed, however, that the queen would con- sent to lose the chance of again see-| ing and embracing him. Queen Marie is finding consolation in the midst of her trouble in the belief that during her visit to the| United States she not only her people better known to the people of that country but laid the foundation for a better understand-| ing between the peoples of Europe| and America. Marie 1is convinced she canj achieve even greater things in the future, for she dreams of playing a greater role and assuming wider authority in the life of Europe by spreading the gospel of internation- al understanding, which she devel- oped in the United States. She is of the opinion that the United States will inevitably play a great- er part in the world's affairs and that she is in a position now more faithfully to interpret American hopes, ambitions and ideals to the continent of Europe. hH During the trip from Cherbourg| to Paris the officlal spokesman of the royal party expressed the belief| that the good Impression of the| queen’s visit to America and the in- creased knowlcdge there of Ru- mania’s resources would enable Ru- mania to contract a loan, possibly a half billion dollars. The spokes- man made it plain that Queen Ma- rie herself had not directly or in- directly broached the subject of a loan to financiers she met in the United States.

Dr. L. R. G. Crandon, husbgnd of “Margery,” the Bosten medium, made that claim for it in a recital of his wife's mediumship before an ience that packed the auditor- last night. Dr. Crandon holds three degrees from Harvard,-is a surgeon and an author on medical as well as metaphysical questions. After describing manifestations produced by Margery and investi- gated by two committees of sclent- ists, one composed of Harvard men, Dr. Crandon said, “Science, however, | is cmerging from its period of ma- iu. terialism. It is realizing that there is a profounder reality than so-call-| ed matter. | “It is not impossible to believe| | that through accurate experimenta-| tion with supernormal psychical | phenomena we shall be able to tell| with some degree of precision what! happens through death to this most | real reality of all, which we call the | n personality. | ience is bankrupt on the edge! of the grave.

With Election Toronto, Ont, Dec. 1 (M—The people of Ontario are balloting to- day to choose representatives for the 17th legislature of the province, but with the main issue wet or dry. 0ld party lines have been cast to the winds during the campalgn, G. Howard Ferguson, the conservative premier, is asking to be returned to power on a platform that all sales of liquor shall be under govern- ment supervision, and that sales on doctors’ prescriptions shall be done away with. The premier has argued during the campaign that his pro- posed system would Kkill off the trade of the bootleggers and thus be more of a temperance measure than the present act permitting sales on prescriptions. The liberal party, the progressives and the prohibitionists, on the othér hand, hold that it Mr. Ferguson is victorious his measure will make liquor more readily obtainable and therefore constitute a blow to tem- perance. These groups are demand- ing a continuance and more strict enforcement of the Ontario temper- ance act, which was brought into force in 1916 as a war measure, Under this act bars and liquor stores were banished from the prov- ince, and in place of them a gov- ernment commission has conducted dispensaries in certain populated centers for the sale of spirits on doctors' prescriptions. The sale of heer of a 4.4 alcholic| content by weight is now permitted in the province. Mr. Fergusol platform calls for this beverage also to be placed under government con- trol, with highproof liquor. MAC Kansas City Declines Her Plans for | Addition to Memorial. Kansas City, Dec.
