my seventy-fve cents, because / did
not see what the professor promised to
show me, and what / went purposely
to see-the exposition"
However, we have heard no one
who attended the performances ex-
press regret, but on the contrary ev-
erybody was well pleased, and en-
joyed the entertainment well. wheth-
er they exposed spirituslism or not.
The professor and his wife performed
several very interesting tricks, and
showed the spectators how they were
done, and the secrets of performing
them. Some were old tricks of ledg-
erdemain, old to everybody who ever
attended slight Of hand performances |;
but the professor did them al. well.
and the little boys were delighted.
Take the performance altogether,
however, several tricks were per-
formed which puzzled the wisest
heads, but were simple enough and
ali mystery vanished when explained
or exposed. Spiritualists who were
present certainly received a most SAL
utary lesson on gullibility. Those who
attended Baldwin's performances will
be very cautious hereafter about re-
ceiving every manifestation that par
takes somewhat of the mysterious, as
from the spirit world.
While Prof. Baldwin utterly fails to
expose spiritualism, as intelligent
spiritualists know IL to exist by intel
ligent tests and while he untruly as
serts that there is no such thing as
mind-reading, or clair.
he Is at the same time doing
much good in the way of cantioning
the public against humbugs and
frauds, and teaching professed spirit
ualists that If their belief depends al
together on physical demonstrations,
it rests on a very insecure foundation.
The old admonition. prove all things
and hold fast to that which Is good, ;"
Is a good one, and just as good for
spiritualists as for any other class of
people.

- Prof. Baldwin and wife, who ad-
vertise to expose every phase of spir-
itualism, gave two performances in
Mcpherson Hall, this city, last week.
The audiences each evening were only
moderately large. The second even
ing was a repetition of the first, with
the addition of the exposition. On
the first evening he does his tricks,
but does not expose them he then
announces that on the next evening
he will show how each trick is done.
He is sharp young man. and takes
this course to get double fee from the
people, knowing that those who see
his tricks the first night will GO back
the next to see how they were done.
People who attend Bald wins show
see as much by attending only the
second or third night as If they at
tended the first. In this Prof. Bald
win, although he may be exposing
humbugs, is himself a swindler, and
an obtainer of money under false pre-
lenses. A gentleman attending the
first nights performance here said to

The admenition in THE ADVERT.
ER last week to item writers has its
desired effect. We are a little slow,
but Johnson has been rather dull,
lately. AS We like to notice ouT
friendly "doings" in the county pa
per, we herewith submit few.
= Rev. D. B. Coryeil preached here
last Sunday morning to goodly con-
- - -Supt. Pierson passed through
here last Thursday. He, visited the
school, and seemed well pleased with
its management.
They are thinking of starting a
mock legislature, debating society, or
something of the sort, to pass away
the long winter evenings.
- Mr.. Julius Johnson Is a gentle
man full of fun as well as politics. 1t
is a real pleasure to listen TO him ar
que with those so disposed. He is
considered a walking encyclopedia by
the people hereabouts.
The religious element is strong in
this neighborhood. Rev. E. D. Thorn
as has been conducting meetings OF
the Baptist persuasion. The people
turn out in large numbers to the gath
erings, and seem to take deep interest.
Mr.. E. Hikes. he of johnson
mercantile fame, has opened broom
factory. He makes as strong. if not
as well looking. a broom as can be
made in the east. Special rates are
given to those purchasing in large
quantities. Give him call.
- Mr.. Buck of the Normal School
passed through here On his way to
take charge of the Washington school.
He remained over here one night, and
we found him a very entertaining
young man. We have no hesitation
in recommending him to the direc-
tors and scholars of Washington.
= The district school has opened,
with Lucius B. Church of Brownville
High School as teacher. Some of the
solid men of johnson think that this
young mans only difficulty in teach
ing will be in treating the large girls
too nicely. However this may be we
wish the teacher success in this his
first undertaking:
- PatroniZe home industry. This
should be the watch word of the far
mers of Nemaba county. If any new
enterprise spring up worthy of pat
ronage, throw your whole efforts to
the support of it. We have broom
factory in johnson which should re-
ceive the united cooperation of our
county. There Is no necessity for
sending east for brooms when there is
such factory in our midst. The
brooms are as strong and durable as
those made anywhere.
