' Colonel Roc baa. Ia attracting unusual at
' tentlon here ajnont people envssed In
psychical research, and foremost of
I whom Is the famoua astronomer, Camilla
.-. Jlammarlon. '
The colonel, who is br no means a
crank, but a man of ood hard common
' sense. In the book strongly defends
the oft-dlsoussed theory of relncarna
, tion, - and certainly , tells some very
' startling and unuanal stories, and his
methods of peering into the psyehlo life
. or the people he used as mediums are
unique. . . ! '
He hypnotised a number of persons
and made them believe they were 10, 10
. and even 10 year younger than their
ctual ages. -
Some remarkable, experiments were
made wittt a woman of 46. who was
. hypnotised, and to . whom It- waa 1 sug
- gested that her age was gradually di
minishing..
' While la the hypnotlo state she de
scribed incidents in her life that oo
- eiirred when she wss 14. Bhe told of
her confirmation at the age of 14 and
' described her theft of a sou from her
grandfather. Gradually aha relapsed
Into baby language, - and at last her
..words became unintelligible and she
" could not make signs,,.-
' - Colonel Roc baa went on with his ques
tion and then the woman replied in
t the deep voice of a man. She said he
name waa Jean Bourdon, and that a be
' ;was a villager. ' - , , )
'.Colonel Roohas caused Inquiries to be
, made and found that a man of that
name 'had lived in the village the woman
''mentioned as far back as lilt. After
three quarters of an . hour's further
-questioning the woman replied in the
voice of an old woman called Carterot.
Experiments were also made with two
, ether women, and both gradually . grew
more childish In mind and voice until
. they relapsed Into the speech and actions

and. Judging - fnpm present- indications
she has more tban air prospects. 01 suc

During later years . German com.
merce. and eapeclaliy shipping . trade.
have developed at a . rate , which has
greatly surprised all f oVelgners, and
none more than the English, who had al
ways felt certain that England's su
premacy - could never, be wrested from
nor. v .
' For this there is no doubt that the
kaiser is directly responsible. Being a
large stockholder in the North "German
Lloyd company, he has always urged the
managers of that great steamship com'
pany to extend its activity to the far
east, with the result that more than one
third of the malls for China and Japa
which were formerly carried by English
steamers are now being carried by Ger
man vessels, which surpass those of the
English In speed as well as safety.
The German commercial world also
keeps an open eye upon the Philippines,
where it Is realised there are great pos
sibilities for the creation of a. market
for German products.
. Before many months shall have
passed North German Lloyd steamers
will stop regularly at Manila and Qer
man consular agents ail over the islands
will keep German manufacturers . at
home posted on the condition of the
market. In central and northern China
German commerce ia, rapidly gaining
supremacy over thaVof all other na
tions.
During the last five years the tonnage
of British ships .entering and leaving
Chinese ' ports rncressed by approxi
mately.SO per cent. During the same
period the tonnage of German ships
entering and leaving increased approxi
mately by 410 per cent.
During the year Itit the port of Ham

the value of 15,000,000. In 101 the ex

(Special Dlapatch to The Jonrnal.) - '
Klamath Falla, Or., Oct 21. An idea
of the growth of this city may be gained
irom the fact that nearly 100 buildings
have been constructed during the sum
mer at a coat of almoat (260,000, and
this would not be the limit but for the
fact that many who desired to build
could not get th material. - To meet
the local demand for lumber the Moore
Broa have began the construction of a
new sawmill with capacity for 75,000
feet a day, to be equipped 'with all the
latest machinery.
Where, six months sgo, was only rock
and. sage brush Is a beautiful brick Hlgb
school building that cost . 132.000; an
other rockplle has given way to a four-
story brick business block that cost SIS.-
000,' and on several other lots which a
year ago could be bought for a few hun
dred dollars fine buildings hava been
erected. Several of the present owners
paid ISO a front foot for the same.
' . The Klamath Lake Navigation com'

cludes the new boat Klamath, capable
of carrying 100 passengers and many

making Tegular trips next week to Mer

made for the early spring.
Bids for the construction of the tun
nel snd first 10 miles of ths main canal
will be opened at San Francisco, De

the completion of the work within one
year from the signing of the contract
If bids for the cement needed about SO

will be put in and the cement manufac

a 'presidential possibility being so utter
ly hopeless that even he hlmaelf must
see it Count Boni de Castellane. who
entered the field of politics with so
much enthusiasm. Is rather disgusted
with politics st present his friends ssy,
snd Is looking about for another means
of getting into the limelight
He still hopes that his wife's millions
will procure for him a position as
French embassador to some foreign
court, preferably Berlin or. St Peters
burg, but his chances , also here . are
slim. to. say the least the French, not
having forgotten his outrageous assault
upon the president of the republic soms
years ago.
One field, however, Is open to him,
that of sport, and last Saturday's auto
mobile races on Long island for ths
Vsnderbllt cup gave him the idea of do
nating a cup for a great International
1,000-kilometer - race to be run next
spring, starting - probably - from Ver

The plan has caused some sur
prise here, as the little count has not

Anything more than oblivion is probably
his argument . ,

The tram extends from the main dri&
