DR, PRINGE TALKS ON SPIRITUALISH Says It Is a Science and Sub- ject to Some Frands Worcester, Mass,, Dec. 4.—(P— Psychical research today had two defenders who classead it as & sclence open to the same frauds and fal- lacies as medicine, chemistry or astronomy in their early days but worthy of profound study and in- vestigation. Before the Clark university sym- posium on psychic research last night, Dr. Walter F. Prince of Bos- ton declared that behind all the manifestations denounced by science were actual supernormal experiences which have apparently persisted in all races since earliest records. His address was supplemented by 2 paper from Professor Willlam Mc- Dougall of Harvard university, who stressed the need for investigation of the subject and called on educa. tional institutions to rid themselves of prejudice against psychical re- search and open their doors for scientific exploration of that fleld. Both Dr. Prince and Professor Mc- Dougall were members of the com- mittee which investigated “Mar- gery,” the Boston medium, a year ago. “Phenomena of the same nature as those which now form the sub- Jject matter of psychic research are witnessed to from the first records of the human race, apparently in all lands,” sald Dr. Prince, who for score of years has been chief investi- gator for the American soclety for psychical research. “We sometimes hear it said as a taunt that such be- liefs were common in ancient times and are common among aborigines, Which is exactly what we should ex- pect would be the case if the pheno- mena' to which they relate are in- tegral to the human race.” Professor McDougall advanced the opinion that “there has been gath- ered a very. weighty mass of evi- dence indicating that human per- sonality does not always at death cease to be a source of influence upon lving.” “I hold,” he continued, “that a case has been made out for clair- voyance of such strength that fur- ther Investigation is imperatively needed. T wduld say the same of many of the alleged supernormal physical phenomena of mediumship. I am not convinced of supernor- mality of any of these in any in- stance. But I do feel very strongly that evidence for them is such that the scientific world is net justified in merely pooh-poohing it, but rather is called upon to seck out igate alleged causes with care and impartiality.” FOLLOWS SISTER TO GRAYE Miss Hildur J.

Halpin learned that the girl had been attacked Wednesday night by Bridgeport's phantom stabber and was under medical treatment at her home for a wound in the right breast. According to the girl's story, she had alighted from a bus on Middle street about five o'clock Wednesday evening and was walking toward John street, when a man lunged at her from & door- way on the west side of the street. The girl was unable to secure a good view of the man. She sald he seemed to be a “short felow™ with an overcoat up around his ears and his hat pulled low so that it was impossible to get a clear view of his face. Except for a slight twinge of pain where the weapon used by the man penetrated the girl's flesh, the girl did not realize until she re- turned home that she had been stabbed. The wound inflicted upon her was similar to the ones inflicted on the fifteen or sixteen other vic- {tims of the stabber during the past year.

This lotter advised that ‘In re-| |turn for these concessions, Mr. | | Doheny asks leases on certain of the {undeveloped portions of the Califor- reserve number 1.” This is the k Hills reserve, leased to Doheny” {nia on Dec. 11, 1922.

He i | NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, SATURDAY, DECEMBER JURY AGOUITS HEAD AT TRINITY SUBHITS REPORT Oglty Would Give Student Who Fails Another Chance Hartford, Conn., Dec. 4 (A— Studies and experiments to avoid the “Intrinsic defects of the lecture system” and the deficiencles of the formal examination method, and to solve the perplexing problem of the dropped freshman without penalizng the promising young man and plac- ing a premium upen the “steady, phlegmatic plodder,” are among the outstanding developments at Trin- ity college during the past year, ac- cording to President Remsen B. Ogliby’s annual report to the trus- tees, made public today. Among the objectives for th coming year outlined by the presi dent are further advances in the direction of “more nearly adequate stipends for our teaching staff,” and additions to the faculty at its two weakest points—addition of a ful time man in psychology and o some instruction im fine arts. Ameri can colleges, in opinion of Presi dent Ogilby are ruthlessly disre- garding the {individual problem of the youth who has been dropped from college. Until recently, his report continues, “a freshman who falled to adjust himself quickly to the educational requirements of col- lege and was consequently dropped in the first year could count on a second trial at his own college or even elsewhere. But since the war the greater number of applications for admission has made possible standards of ‘admission hithertofore dgemed {inconceivable and these usually include refusal to readmit 1 £ 26.

Mystery Unsolved The verdict leaves the slaying of the Rev. Mr. Hall and Mrs. Mills on a descrted farm outside New Brunswick on the night of Septem- ber 14, 1022, as great a mystery as ever. The state's case was built en- tirely on circumswntial evidence with the exception of the eye-wit- missal quietly. When Judge Parker had dismissed the remalning indictment against Mrs. Hall and her brothers, and the two indictments against Carpender, the four defendants shook hands with each other and with their at- torneys, chatting cheerfully and re- ceiving congratulations. Carpender and Willie Stevens had been in jail since August 12 and Henry Stevens since September 15. Mrs. Hall was arrested last July but was admitted to bail. Carpender, who is a member of the New York stock exchange, sued this statement: mony was bitterly attacked by the defense, 11,000,000 Words Sent Telegraph officials say that 1 00,000 words were sent to news- papers during the trial, and that the oflicial record contains 1,110,000 words, cove ages. A total of 178 witne 8 ified, 102 for the state and 76 for the defense, and tota lcost of the trial has been esti- ntaed as high as high as $1,000,000. ‘he cost to the county was estimated t from $100,000 to $300,000. Governor Moore would not com- ment on the verdict. Regarding fur- | ther trials, however, he said: | “I think the state has gone far | enough. We are prosecuting, not persceuting. However, I am to con- fer tomorrow morning with Senator simpson and then T shall know bet- ter what course is to be pursued.” Carpender’s Statement “I was indicted solely on the lying story and false identification of Jane Gibson and have spent four months in jail without a trial because of the tactics of Simpson. However, the world now knows the truth about Jane and Simpson and no trial of my own is now necessary to clear my name.
