SPIRITUALISTIC WAGER.

(Per Press Association.) Wellington, September 1. The New Zealand Times announces that, as the result of a conference of city editors, Thomas Driver (a conjuror) and William M'Lean (representing Charles Bailey), an alleged spirit medium, of Melbourne) a wager of £IOO aside has been arranged, Driver wagering that he will perform by conjuring what Bailey professes to do through spirits. The conditions are that .Bailey will be stripped, medically examined, and placed in a bag. The bag will be sealed and placed inside a cabinet, and if Bailey produces "apport-s" under these conditions, which Driver acknowledged he cannot do under the same circumstances, Driver will pay £IOO.
