Jr* N Ghosts Seen by Scientist I Austrian Proiessoi Saw Spirit of His Mother Professor Karl von Thaler, au Aus- trian scientist, is n believer in ghosts. He claims he has seen the spirit of his mother twelve times and recounts In stances of others who have also seen the shades of the departed. In conversation a short time ago Pro fessor Thaler said: “Don't ridicule the man or woman who claims to have seen ghosts, for while there may be no ghosts one may see ghosts. I have seen them myself.” The professor wntin ued: « Ten years ago my mother die«! We had lov«*d each other dearly—friends called us “the inseparables.” So fon«l of me was she that when I went to college she broke up her home to fol A WOMAN RAT AT THE FOOT OF THE BED. low me to the big city, keep bouse for me, care for me and assist me in my studio. Of course when 1 grew to man's es tate my professional duties caused our Reparation, but when my mother was dead all Game back to me—her kindly attentions, her acts of self sacrifice, her enduring love. Her funeral put me to a heavy mental and physical strain, and when, late in the night, I went to bed I was thoroughly exhausted with gtief and nervousness. I dreamed that on»X“ more I was a student at that big, strange university town-and that my mother was walking with me In the nearby forest, of which Ki kin.'W every nook aiul oorner. The mofUer of those bygone daws was young and pretty and healthy, and so W the mother of my dream. She talked ns usual and gave me much good advice. But suddenly I was overcome by the recoUeetiou that my mother was dead. I looked up to her, and before I knew What I was doing I said: “I thought 1 ourieG you this afternoon. Was that a dream or is tbls?” As I pronounced tho words her face fol! tho smile playing around her It;» vanished, her whole aspect changed. She looked twenty years older, and her face was now deadly pale. Seeing this, I awoke with a start. If my body had been plunged into lee cold water I couldn’t have been more awake than I was. and there before me In the mild light of the waxen taper sat my mother at the foot of the b«>d as she was wont to do In days gone by. There was no delusion, I am positive of that. I was as completely awake as one can be. Yet the specter didn’t frighten me in the least. Ou the con trary, I was grateful for its presence and responded to its tender gaze with eyes full of tears. “The dead,” argued my mind, trained in science—"tho dead don’t rise, but loving remembrance often recalls them to their former sphere.” My mother’s ghost, still clothed in the garb she wore In life, appeared to me twelve times all told. After her first visit 1 waited several months in vain, awakening at certain hours-in the night to look for her. At the end of the third month she came again, repeating her visits thereafter at longer or shorter intervals. Some little time ago there died In Vi enna an old friend of mine, Mme. vou Maytner, better known under her noui de plume. Marguerite Halm. She was an e<?centrlc woman, with a brilliant but erratic mind. One day in the summer of 1900 I happen«1«! to pass through Gratz, where she was then living, and, not having seen her for some time, made an un ceremonious call. I found her In a state bordering on collapse. She hail aged ten years since our hist meeting. Her youngest son, her favorite, was dead. That explained everything. When I said goodby, she begged me to come again before leaving Grata. “But not between 5 and 0," she added quickly. “That’s my son's visiting hour.” “Which of the boys is living In Grata?’ “None living here. It's my favorite whom I expect, my youngest.” 1 looked up in astonishment. A ghost In broad daylight! “Don’t think that I am mad," plended Mme. von Maytner. “I know that then is no such thing as rising from thr dead, but nevertheless I see my sor «ally. I must see him. I do see hln ) and talk with him. It's such a cons«> latlon to me.” Well I understood my poor friend, but her neighbors did not Her phy sician had her committed to an insane asylum, from whieh her eldest sou rescued her with difficulty after a pro longed struggle. Here Is another experience of my own: Michael Etienne, the great editor of the Neue Freie l’resse. was dead. As one of bls nearest friends I sat up with tbe body that night before the funeral until 1 o'cl«>ck. when members of tbe editorial staff relieved me. Tho t»o«lv was lving in state in a large nan appropriately arapea anu lighted. 1 sat at the foot gazing upon my dead friend's characteristic face, which bor«1 the usual aspect of Jovial satisfaction.

The surprise was too much, but after a moment or two I approached fearlessly. I had ha<l some experience, you know. Michael continued to regard me smil ingly, complacently.

FILIPINO MUSICIANS. « Plana For Ilrin^tni? a Hand to St. Louix World’ll Fair. In the plans of the bureau of music of the St. I.ouis world's fair it has been practically settled that a Filipino band conmwted with liiw Firet United States Infantry will be one of the principal features, says the 8ft Louis Globe- Deuiocrat. The committee on music has had considerable correspondence on the subject with residents of tho islands, and the engagement of the players was decided upon tentatively early in their deliberations. When Governor Taft was in St. Louis, he laid especial stress on the excellent music rendered by them, and Presi dent Francis has received many let ters since then from civil and military officers on the same theme. The organization includes representa tives of the Viscayan, Tagair», Ilocano and Pampungan tribes. Their music is by no means limited to this rendition of native airs, although these are u feature of their repertory that has Im pressed their critics from other lands. They have a library, which includes all the classical and modern compositions. Their color and their race, together with the popular interest in everything that pertains to the Philippines, will form the basis of their power as an attraction, but their Indorsers in the islands predict that visitors to the ca position will find these the least lm portant points about them. Th«'y are recommended as tit associates profes sionally for any group of brass band players and exponents of their art de serving of a hearing in any communi ty A number of sample programmes were received at world's fair head quarters the other day. They show many selections from the grand op eras, national sougs of the European peoples and numerous titles to be seen on the card of a recital or con cert In this country.
