Professor Lombroso, the I.alian phys­
icist. contributed to the Annules des
Sciences Psychiques an account of two
psychic phenomena which lie Investi­
gated purely iu the interests of mate­
rial sciejce. The article is eutitled
“Huuuted Houses Which 1 Have Stud­
ied," aud the professor confessed that
he set about his investigations with
nothing to be desired iu the complete­
ness of bis skepticism.
The phenomena iu question, how­
ever. proved to be beyond solution by
any known laws of physical science.
Frankly, the great criminologist ad­
mitted that for the first time in his
life lie was in the presence of the in­
tangible aud that be was worsted in
I his attempt to grapple with the unsub-
' stantial.
“1 was asked in November, 1900, to
investigate some strange occurrences
which bad taken place at the house of
[ Signor P.ivarino by way of Pescatorf.
i Turin. One phenomenon I was asked
I to explain was the mysterious over­
turning of cups and jugs, which were
précipitaied to the ground by some
unseen agency.
"These occurrences were accompa­
nied by loud knockings on the walls
and the pulling of bells in various
parts of the house. The youngest
daughter was awakened on several oc­
casions by blows aimed at her by some
unseen hand, and her body on exami­
nation was found to lie covered with
bruises, the result of severe pinchings.
Her sister, who slept in the same bed,
felt nothing aud was not disturbed in
any way.
“The clash of rapiers was heard iu
the house at another time, accompa­
nied by cries of anger and groans of
anguish. Lights were also seen pass­
ing to and fro in unlighted rooms. Au
Alpine hat was continually moving
about tlie room, and even when it was
deliberately nailed to a chair an invia-
ible hand precipitated it to the ground.
All these mysterious happenings went
on for eight months, and in regard to
them I took the evidence of reliable
persons, who testified that they bad
been eyewitnesses of the phenomena.
Even when the bell ropes were removed
from the lielle the tinkling continued
at all hours of the day and night.
