flock to enjoy his deceptions This Ia not to be won
dered ai however, for the Professor IS ever pro.
ducing fresh and startling novelties, which battle
all the attempts of beholders TO explain their
mystery. The programme opens with succession or

OF " Hartz His tricks are all clevery performed
and must be admitted that n. Hartz Is tho best per
former Of illusions Of TINS character that has
beiled In tbi. country The concluding portion Of the
entertainment at podvorth Hall consists Of the
Floating Head, which really must be seen to
be appreciated. At the rising OF the cur
tain human head appears floating on cushion mid
a, and this head the will of the Professor smilej
frowns speaks and gives the OF articles
