Those who witnessed the perform

erful psychical Influence and control
which the youth la alleged to possess.
Remembering; .: the supposed psychical
manifestations of the boy more than
two months ago, . when furniture and

' For eight hourB yesterday, Ernest
Hares., to repeat the testimony of cred
Ible witnesses, offered potent evidence
of the possession of powerful occult
power. From 9 o'clock in the morning
until after o'clock In the afternoon,
the child is averred to have caused the
; movement of furniture, tableware and
; kitchen utensils at the Valley noiei,
Second' and Main streets.

"Helen and I were cleaning the rooms
and making the beds. Ernest began
following me about. When he was In

"Yes. we repeated the experiment.

was peculiarly gifted with some strange

Then came the Incident or tne pie..
uncanny above all others, at me lun

me. We were ready for desert, when
Mrs. Harps took a large, luscloua-look-Ing
lemon pie frpm the shelf.
""Do you want pie?' she asked of us,
In general. .
" I've been flxlna my mouth for that
pie all during lunch,' declared Mr. Dern-

Ft Hang la the Air.
"Just as Mxa. Harps started to cut
the pie. It flew from off the table, out
of her hands, and Into, the air. Several
feet above our heads It bung for Just
the fraction of a second. Then it fell,
upside down, to the table. We a,te no
lemon pie.
"During luncheon, we had noticed a
strange lull In the raanifestatlons which
had been going on all morning. But
with the upheaval of the pie. they-cora-menced
again. Pans and kettles, swung
to hooks on the wall, clattered to the
floor. , Dishes flew from the shelve.
A large pan of dough, which was sitting
on the stove, slipped off to the floor.
Silverware on the table Jumped strange
ly, and rattled.
When, finally. Mrs. Harps oegan re
moving the table ware from the table,
the cloth seemed dragged off by a
mystic hand and glass ware, china ware
and sliver ware crashed to the floor.
Until after 4 o'clock In the after

Ernest Harps has been' at the Valley
hotel for three days. Previous to his
being taken to the hostelry, and for a
period of more than a month, he was un
der the cara and surveillance of Dr. J.
Allen Gilbert of 641 Fifth street. Vn
able to witness during the time he kept
the boy at his home manifestations sim
ilar to those which occurred at the Mar
shall street home, he gave the child back
Into the keeping of its mother.
Ernest Harps,: a sturdy little. chap of
11 years 'of age, mystified the scientific
world when . details r of " the Marshall
street manifestations were made public.
For four hours, from 1 o'clock until 4
o'clock In the afternoon, furniture and
brtc-a-brac in all rooms of the two atory
frame dwelling house staggered and
trembled. Many of the neighbors testi
fied to the strange actions of the there
