Its Departure From'' Dying f0n
V Witnessed by X Ey .;
ChicagJ, July' 18, The "flight of the
vital spark' has been witnessed, accor
ding to a statement made today by Dr,
Patrick S, O'Donnell, aq X ray expert
who has been following up experiro nta
made.fby Dr. W, J , Kilner, of London,
England. , ;,
' Sometime ago, using a chemicalized
film scaled between two thin 'stops ef
glass. Dr. O'Donoell pave a demonstra
tion to twenty physicians of the anrat
or "elecirical radiation" of . living hod
ies, four young women being need as
subjeets. The aura developed a a.
strong ray of light surrounding the en
tire form of the suject
Last night," said Dr. O'Donnell,
"in the presence of geveral physicians
at Mercy Hospital, 1 tried the expert
ment on a dying-man. He was "rapidly
sinking. Suddenly the attending phy
sician arinounced that the man 'Was
dead. The aura began to spread from
the body, and presently disappeared.
Further observation of the corpse' re
vealed no sign of the aura.
"We do not claim that the light is
the soul, or spirit.. In fact no one seems
to know what it is. In my opinion.
however, it is some sort of radio-activi
ty made visible by the use of the chem
ical screen. My experiments, howev
er, seem to prove that it. is the aniraa
ting power, or current of life of human
beings."-

Lincoln, Neb., July 18. -The Demo
cratic Presidential aspirants are to be
placed on record on-public questions be
fore the nominating convention is held
if William J. Bryan has his way.
oryan, wno, ,oy reason 01 me ruie
whiph compels a candidate to receive a
two-thirds vote of the delegates to se
cure the nomination,' will be a patent
factor in next year's convention, de
clares . in the Commoner today that
Democrats should profit by the lesson
of 1908. -
"The Republicans." he enys, "took
Mr.Roosevelt'a word for the political
disposition of the Republican candidate
for trie Presidency, and they have been
naturally, greatly disappointed.
The questions he wants the aspir
ants for the nomination to answer include:
"Do you favor tariff ior revenue on
ly?
Free raw materials and a revenue
duty only on manufactured goods?
' 'Giving consideration to the element
of protection in revising the tariff?
"Election of Senators by the people?
"The income tax?
"Promise of immediate independence
to the Fillipinos?
"Publicity of campaign contributions
and expenses?
"Safeguarding of States' rights?
' Indorsement of labor planks of
1908?
"Strict regulation of railroads?
"Indorsement of the trust plank of
the 1908 platform?
"Aiset currency in any form, and
more especially the Aldrich monetary
reform plan?
"Legislation guaranteeing bank de
posits?" Bryan would alsa put the aspirants
on record on the question of keeping
the three branches of government with
in their Constitutional apheie and
whether they believe in the reading of
"unreaionjtble" into the Sherman Anti
Trust law by the Supreme Court.
