HYPNOTlZING A CITY.
Half of HazletOn, Pa, is Crazy
About the Science.
City Authorities Want to Fine Ex-
perimenters, Etc

A hypnotic craze has taken hold of
Hazleton, Pa, and threatens to develop
serious consequences. It is already alarm
ing, and has attracted the attention of the
authorities and public men, Dr. j. W.
Cole has felt constrained to sound
warning through the newspapers, and
Professor Bierly found it necessary to issue
an edict making any attempt among the
pupils Of the public schools to practice 1t
sufficient cause for expulsion
Th city authorities are considering it,
and Mayor Altmiller is inclined to issue
proclamation making it punishable by
fine or imprisonment to experiment. Tho
craze is not confined to the younger folks,
by any means, but some of the most prom
inent citizens have become students of the
science, and a remarkably largo number
have mastered it.
Professor and Mrs. Sage three weeks
ago concluded two weeks engagement

hypnOtism and practical illustrations with
local subjects Crowded houses greeted
them each night during their stay, and they
took 50, 500 away ia profits The impression
which they created remained Men and
boys throughout the city became students
of hypnotism, and the feats that some Of
them have since performed excel even the
professors. Among the most prominent
is George AIarkle, formerly a banker. He
was one of the first TO master the study.
He has exercised the power in a medical
way only, however, and some astonishing
cures have been made by him.
One case was that of AIRS. Reinhart,
mother-in-law of William Dershuok, an
editor, who was taken home from Phila-
.delphia hospital pronounced incurable.
She was suffering from abdominal trouble,
and, being unable to retain anything she

by debris as the result of the tornado.
All these streets have been made
passable and will be cleaned up in ten
DAYS. I'd the city there are 4S0 miles
of improved streets. SO IL can be seen
to what extent tEs tornado obstructed
traffic. The storm district on it's ont

the east to Tower Grove avenue on the
west, and from Olive street on the
north to Lynch street. on the south.
This comprises an area OF six square
miles. The extreme limits are three
miles east md west and two miles
north and south An adequate idea OF
the damage can be formed when 1t is
stated that if all the houses damaged
and blown down. were on both sides OF
one street that street would be just
eighty-fve miles long. This figure is
given by the street commissioner, who
has been through the entire district,
