VALDEZ, Dec. 31.—Capt. Robert M.
Nolan, officer in charge of the U. S.
Military Cable and Telegraph system
for the First division of Alaska, with
headquarters here, has received a tel
egram stating that the chief signal of
ficer has recommended to the war de
partment that Capt. Prosser relieve
Nolan here. This recommendation is
practically the same as an appoint
ment, and Capt. Prosser has been ord
ered to report here about Feb. 1. The
new appointee has lately been in
charge of the supply depot of the sig
nal corps at El Paso, and has just
completed the installation of wireless
towers at Forts Hauchucha, Arizona,
and at El Paso, completing a chain of
wireless communication along the en
tire Mexican border. Captain, then
lieutenant, Prosser, was formerly here,
having occupied the position of of
ficer in charge from 1911 to 1913.
Capt. Nolan has been here only
aobut a year, but his detail with the
signal corps will expire March 17, at
which time he automatically goes back
to his command in the line, and will
probably go to the border.
CAN THE DEAD COMMUNICATE?
In answering this question I be
lieve we should begin by recognizing
that the vast majority of the human
race have always believed that in
some sort of way the dead do com
municate with the living. I know
that this argument, from universal
consent, does not impress us much in
this scientific age but it ought to im
press us more than it does.
It is not religion which has brought
us out of mid-Victorian skepticism,
but modem science. We cannot ig
nore the conclusions of such men as
Sir William Barrett and Sir Oliver
Lodge. I remember the late Freder
ick Myers saying at a physical re
search meeting, about twenty years
ago: “Remember that you clergy
begin all sermons on a tremendous
assumption that there is another
world. We are trying to make that
assumption a certainty.”
The Society for Physical Research
get us away from the quacks of the
spiritualistic movement and accepted
no evidence but that which would
bear scientific inquiry. The result of
that work is not by any means fully
attained yet, but it has gone to es
tablish at least two great facts. The
first is the truth of telepathy. I sup
pose telepathy is practically accepted
now, and that it is of enormous im
portance. If one man’s mind can and
does exercise not only an influence
upon the mind of another, but actu
ally communicates with another from
a distance, it is simply a question
whether or not these communications
go on after death. The other fact is
that communications have passed at
the moment of death between one and
another, in spite of distance or space.
I think I am right in saying that the
society is quite convinced about this,
too.—Canon Adderly in Tit-Bits.

SEATTLE, Jan. 31.—Alaskans in
this city predict a great shakeup in
Alaska politics when the new appoint
ment of officials in the territory is
made. It is predicted that Governor
Strong, Judge Jennings of the First
division, Judge Brown of the Third
and Judge Bunnell of the Fourth are
almost certain of reappointment, ac
cording to these prophets. They also
assert that there will be a complete
politic:;! housecleaning at Nome,
where .a entire new set of federal
officials will be made. In the Third
division, these political wiseacres as
sert, District Attorney Spence will
get the axe because of his activities
against the Tillikum club, and that
Charles A. Sulzer, the democratic
candidate for delegate to congress, if
defeated, will have his pick of the fed
eral offices.

the best meals are at Cameron's
