Hypnotic Lecture.
MILWAUKEE, Nov. 22.-About 600
persons, many of Milwaukees 400. were
assembled at Lincoln Hall for the pur-
pose OF listening to a lecture by the noted
hypnotist, DR.. j. A. .Gregoriwitsch of
Russia, on .mindreading, when an order
signed by the mayor was served on the
professor requesting him to dismiss his
audience at once and leave town inside
of "a hours.
The audience demanded an explana-
ton. The management stated that the
order OF the mayor would have to be
obeyed, but tl.,t the performance would
be given at a later date, as it was likely
that the mayor would be persuaded to
permit Il lecture. Mayor Koch stated
that he took the step after a long con-
sultation with the commissioner of the
health department. In his opinion per-
foanances of this kind will produce
cranks of the Prendergast ORDER The
public is much worked up about the af-

MILWAUKEE, Nov. 22.-A special from

from a clear sky. There was not the
slightest indication of the approaching
end. Colonel Henry Casson, his former
private secretary, left his bedside at 8
O'Clock p. m, and gave to an assembled
crowd of the generals friends a most
positive assurance that the crisis was
surely past. General Rusk himself said
to his physicians. during the evening,

Cause of His Death.
General Rusk's death was due to a
complication of disorders, the origin of
which dates back several years. Nearly
10 years ago, when governor of the state,
Governor Rusll had IL first attack similar
to that which prostrated him on his last
bed of sickness. The physician then de-
cided that the trouble was Il disorder of
the stomach. The treatment at that time
was successful iii removing the more
severe symptoms. and for tome time the
general considered himself cured. OF
recent years, however, there have been
slight occurrences of the attack. and
while not Of such severity as to seriously
impair the generals health, they have
been Il warming OF what must come in
time. Lastyear, while at the national
encampment of the G.. A. r. at In

torney Nye had for caller an attorney
who represents Mr.. Alvin, who figures
on large number of notes in the
Menage and Streeter lists. The attorney
says that his client signed an almost
unknown number of the notes. He now
lives i'll st. Paul, but was then in Mime
apolis, and says that he signed the notes
at the request of a friend, who set up
the drinks in compensation for the sigma
ture, and that was all he ever expected
to come OF the matter. 1t has come to
light through some collections received
III st. Paul against Alvin, and as he is
said to be Il man without prop
erty it was something OF a surprise to
the attorneys to receive notes against
him for collection. These claims con-
tinued to come to light, till finally notice
was received of an attachment from
some place i'll Iowa for Judgment Oh
tanned on promissory notes. and on them
claim was made against the estate Of
his mother. This brought matters to a
focus and made action necessary. The
attorney was seeing the county attorney
as to what light he could obtain OH the
spuriousncss of the notes his client had
signed. He knows of S65 900 of the Alvin
paper, and his client says that he signed
