The Fauailrr of the Hernifti Hoth-frhontl rrwtl PoMal July 2. Dr. P.

Phelon, of Chicago, founder ami promoter of the Hermetic Brotherhood Olrvle of Isis, has reopened his tight against the cnndals of ihrf poptoftlce department, ho lust February lnnued an order excluding certain Matter of ihe brotherhood from the mails, end threatens to go to congress for redress. A United Slates senator from one of the western states has taken an Interest in the matter. The chief grievance of Pr. Phelon 'was that a dlao, with instructions for its usw. was denied the privilege of 4he malls.

The disc is about the size of half a dollar, consisting of pasteboard and covered buckskin. For this $1 was charged. The directions for its use required that a plce of ribbon, of whatever color Dr. Phelon may see fit to name, be placed through a hole In the dlse and attach it to the neck of th wearer, letting the disc rest over the heart. Every night before going- to sleep the wearer is required to fix his mind on the disc ajid repeat the following formula: "By the power of the awful Tet-Ora-Gram-Ma-Ton, whose emblem I wear, I demand from the Invisible source of supply health, happiness, peace and plenty." Before arising in the morning the wearer says: "By the power of the awful Tet-Ora-Oram-Jla-Ton, whose emblem I wear, I demand from the ruler of the day, during the day, all that light signifies to man." These words, the directions say, are to be repeated in a low breath as solemnly as possible.

Further directions state that the disc will do no other persons any good, for it is especially polarized for that particular person only. When it has finished Its work it must foe burned or the user will suffer. Dr. Phelon has addressed a letter to the officials of the law division of the department saying that his patients accuse the administration of extortion in Increasing the price of transportation to them over 1,200 per cent, by compelling them to receive the disc by express. He has violated no law.

he says, and claims the rights as a taxpaying free American citizen to use the mails. He states that he has a few friends In the next house of representatives who have assured him that they will have investigated the real cause for the indignities heaped upon him and the Hermetic, "brotherhood by the postoflice department. flOVT DKA1X THE ST.

Welsh was still a child when her father died, but she has a distant rec-. olleotlon of the latter years of her father's life particularly of his residence In New city.

Gen. Man.

Gildersleeve, of the Richelieu' Ontario Navigation cornpuny, is sold to consider the matter a subject worthy of international action, because he thinks the present low water in the St. Lawrence will be much aggravated by the opening of the canal at trie soutn-ern end of Lake Michigan. Trustee Lyman 10. Cooley, who is thoroughly conversant with all the engineering features relating to the drainage canal, called attention to the fact that In l(sSl the Canadian i government deepened' the rapids below Ogdensburg from 10 to 1(1 feet. This added from (i to per cent, to the free channel.

There was great alarm felt for fear that the level of Lake Ontario would be considerably lowered and dually the matter was thoroughly Investigate! by tlen. t'omstock and Col. McFarland, of the United States engineer department. The conclusion was tuat the effects would extend to no groat distance and that the level of Lalie Ontario would not be impaired. Similar cases are presented by the lime kiln crossing? of the Detroit river and at the St.

Clair Hats. "It is estimated," said Mr, Cooley, "that the water passing down tins St. Lawrence will be diminished from 2 to 3 per cent, on the opening of the drainage canal. If a ti to 8 per cent, diminution in 1M did not affect the level, certainly a per cent, will not." CAHXKGIE CtI.M(iS. A New County Brldae Cn.r Horn Nearly Completed.

The county commissioners estimate that the bridge will cost from $12,000 to $15,000. The procedure dissolves, the old scarecrow argument of anti-annexa-tionlsts that the town would have to. keep up the bridges in ease of consolidation, and verities the old saying, "Once a county bridge always a county bridge."

In referer ce to Foster himself the following extra it will doubtless be read with interest: "Foster is described as 'biing rather tall and slender, with a preoccupied air which at times amounted almost to He formed few close friend-? seeming to prefer being alone with his own thoughts. His favorite haunts were the neighboring woods and t.rems, where he had opportunity to hold communion with nature in its most attractive form to a mind of poetic "About this time he composed several of his famous nepro melodies, beginning with 'Louisiana- and by 'Old 1'ncle 'Oh I 'Way Down etc. It la worthy of notice here that at this timevoutiy Foster had never been south of Mason and DU--on's line, and his ideas of. negro ehar-: acter and dialect must have been gathered either from fugitive slaves or such free colored people as he chanced to meet about I'lttsbur.
