The Daily Telegraph states that whilst a well'known spiritualist was giving a seance before a room full of people, tho lights being low. several spirits appeared. Tlie gentleman to whom the medium was under engagement, wishing to test the genuineness of the spirits, made a grab at the ghostly apparition, and encountered a flimsy material. A light was struck, and showed that he held one end of a mosquito netting, the medium tugging at the other ehd. The medium did not accept the chanco to explain, bnt bolted for the street, hatless. He was pursued by some of the audience. * The medium, interviewed later, de» clarod that tho demonstration was genuine, and that spirits actually material* ised. The statement that he held one end of the drapery was absolutely false. _ One of the audience, who accompanied him in his llight and searched the medium, was also interviewed. He supported the medium's statements.
