as pliable and as easily stretched
as soft rubber. But it is upon the up
per stage that the strangest and most
entertaining feature of the remarkably
strong attractions are given. DR.. Hoff-
man and beautiful Mile. Zareta present
their cabinet mysteries. The lovely
lady is tied so securely by gentlemen in
the audience that she cannot move hand
or foot. and yet the moment the door
of the cabinet is closed she makes no
end of a row. Yet when the door again
opens she is as securely bound as be-
fore. She does all the difficult tests of
the great spiritualistic mediums, and
among other things makes complete
change in costume. The performance

The county auditors Of the state will
meet at the capitol Thursday. They
will discuss the necessity of introducing
a bill into the legislature increasing
their term of Office from two to four
years. 1t is claimed that two years is
barely sufficient for new official to be-

the term to four years was before the
legislature of 1887, but was defeated.
