LAVENDER DENOTES MATERNAL INSTINCT. New York Has a High Priestess Who Declares You Can Read Your Neighbor’s Instinots and Character from His Aura. Do you want to nee the color of your neighbor's soul? If you do, just acquire a knowledge of the aura. New York has a new high priestess of a startling cult, and !f her students continue to increase with the regularity they have since her teachings became the fad of “society,” the common sal utation is likely to be ‘What color | your soul?” instead of “How are you?” Mra. Margaret Gladstone Stuart—no less a perish than a great-grandniece of England's “Grand Old Man,” and grandchild of the Countess of Gallow: is the medium through which practical Gotham 1s learning to distingutsh the color of the souls of the people sur- rounding us. It’s an Old Theory. “Tt in one of the oldest theortes in existence, coming down from religious teachers of the East, and finding ite visible manifestation in the golden light or halo surrounding the heads of the Christian saints,” said Mrs. Stuart, ‘that every human being 1s constantly sending forth an actual substance—call it atmosphere, electricity or aura. “Every ome has felt this at one time or another, and those who are inter- ested in this line of study have got to the point where to them, the aura is visible, luminous substance or light surrounding each person, and changing with that person's thoughts, aotions, health and habits, “The golden light issues only from those who are pure in heart and mind, and whose aspirations are of the bigh- est and whose lives are one of sacri- fice. “Every color and every shade corre- sponds to some mental or physical sta we are told by the aura student. “For instance, a person in perfect health and full of hope and ambition will radiate pink. “The maternal Instinct shows !tself in javender color. “The gray and blue radiation ts more negative, both as regards physical end mental qualities. Black Means Denth. ‘Red vibrations issue from the person who Is merely concerned about his physical well-being, and a person about to die, as seen by those who have made a study of the aura, appears ‘as if sur- rounded by a black mist. ‘The study of the aura has always bean of interest to a small number of persons, but to-day it {s interesting to many’ sclentists, physicians and clergymen and to a large seotion of #0- clety in general, Soten js Interested. ‘In the classes formed for the study of that subtle essence which we have so long merely designated as personal atmosphere," continued Mrs, Stuart, “clergymen, sclentists, lovers of the oc- cult, society men and women, and mere {dle curosity-seekers ure to be }| found. “The study of the aura, though cen- turles old, has only now begun in ear- nest. It opens up vast possibilities for wood. .for the changing of one’s atmos- phere and becoming all that one de- sires to be, naturally follows the dis- covery of how one's aura is made. “Byery human being radiaios some cs- fence—you can call it electricity, ema nation, vibration, aura, what you will, and by concentrating one's faculties on this study this aura may be perceived visible emanation, “Indeed, a great many who are not interested in this study have at one time or another seen the radiation called the aura surrounding friends or persons who impressed them great- ly.’ Many physicians consult with Mrs. Stuart in regard to thelr patients, as dn the diagnosing of disease the aura jw of Importance, every degree of ils ness beng most minutely phovographed, as it Were, on the emanation or atmos- phere surrounding the invaiid—on his aura, Dindnees Brought Out the Sense.

Hoyt, Trusted Em- ployee of Chemical National, Has Been Missing Ten Days —His Books Do Not Balance. CASHIER SAYS MAN IS BEHIND $22,538.97. He Was Thought to Be Ill at His Home Until His Wife Came to His Employers and Asked Where He Was. Expert accountants are at work on the books of the Chemical National Bank to-day to try to discover the pe- cullar juggling by which some one embezzled $22,538.97 from the bank. ‘Fhe discovery of the embezalement was brought about by an inquiry into the disappearance of Edwin P, Hoyt on April 2. He was a trusted employee of the bank In the check department for twenty years. Francis Halpin, the cashler, gave out the following statement: “Edwin P. Hoyt, one of the clerks in the check department of this bank, who has been in our employ for twenty-two years, was taken ill on Saturday, April 2, and went home, and we have not seen him since. We are informed by his wife that he left his house on the following Thursday and has not returned, Hoyt did not handle any of the bank's cash or securities, Upon investigation of the books of the check department handled by him we found them out of proof in the sum of $22,638.97, which amount we have charged off to profit and loss. We have notified the bonding company by whom Hoyt was bonded for 5,00, and, so far as this bank is concerned, the matter is closed.” Bank Officers Myatified. Supplementing his statement Mr, Hal- pin said to an Evening World reporter to-day; “The way In which the money was obtained is a great mystery to us and in fact Is something novel in defalca- tion, So far we have not been able to ascertain just how it was done. It must necessarily have been effedted by the juggling of ‘inside’ checks, for al} ‘outside’ checks have come in properly proved. “Out of consideration for the family of Mr. Hoyt we will not take any steps toward a prosecution, We will leave that to be done by the indemnity com- pany which went on his bond for $6,000, The amount of the embezzlement as fixed by the bank is an outalde figure. It may be less than that now. The de- faleation was the work of tampering with small checks, but just how we oan not at this time say, So far no vouch- ers have been missed.” Hoyt Uved with his wife and step- mother at No, 227 McDonough street, Brooklyn, His entire business life had been spent in the Chemical Bank, having entered the institution as a boy. He was not known to have any bad habits and was not given to spec- ulation. @lerk Seat Home. Hoyt was taken ill on April 1 and was told to go home and get well. Nothing was detected out of order with his accounts until his wife made in- quiries of one of his associates, when he failed to return home on’ Thursday night a week ago, An investigation of his accounts was then ordered and jt was found that bis balances bad ben forced, but that no vouchers were missing. At his home Mrs, Hoyt, his wife, was seen and sald that her husband had always been kind and affectionate. His ther, T.
