" Wonderful" - Astonishing"
s.Marvelous ~ Miraculous! !" How
can he do it?" and many like express
sions were heard as the vast throng
surged out of the Grand Opera house
last night, after witnessing the most
marvellous exhibition of healing the
sick ever performed in this part of
the country.
There has never been a medical
practitioner or any other person in
this city who has attracted SO much
attention or been the object of such
universal praise as has been accord
ed this youthful healer since his ad-
vent here. He is the talk of the
town. One hears and sees nothing
but boy Phenomenon" He is the
chief topic of conversation on the
streets, in the stores, on the cars, in
offices, at home-in fact everywhere.
His name coupled with the marvel
Gus cures he accomplished last night
upon the public stage, before hum
dreds of representative citizens of
Akron, has created all exciting cpl
sode in our city.
There are many of our most prom
inent and influential citizens in the
audience, including leading physi-
clans, lawyers, judges and business
men. AS usual, many were, no doubt,
very skeptical when they went in,
| but all were of one mind when they
went out, and that was that vital
magnetism, as possessed by the boy
Phenomenon" does undoubtedly
possess most wonderful healing quail
| ties.
Tonight will occur the second and
last public exhibition, although he
will remain in the city some few
weeks at the Buchtel Hotel to treat
those who wish private treatment.
Those who are interested in the work
and all who are on crutches, the
lame, deaf and sick who wish to be
cured, will be given front seats and
treated free upon the stage tonight.
Admission free to all adults.
| About a dozen well known citizens
were treated last night suffering with
as many different diseases, and by
| his wonderful life-giving magnetism
restored paralyzed and rheumatic
limbs to usefulness, made the deaf
hear, the blind see and the lame
walk, in each instance the patients
demonstrating by their actions and
| testifying by words the great bene-
fits derived. While there were
many remarkable cures performed,
time prevents a more extended notice
in this article, as the detailed report
of the demonstration will be found
in the local columns. Suffice to say,
he did all and more than the adver-
tisements claimed for him. He cer-
tainly proved to the most eXacting
that he is possessed with some power
by which he is enabled to effect Won
derful transformation in the af-
| ficted.
Those who desire private treat
ment and are able to pay small
price to be cured, may call at the
Buchtel hotel any time during the
next two weeks, and receive consul
tation, examination, and thorough
diagnosis at which time the eXamin-
ing physician will decide if the case
is durable, and if so, the price of
treatment and full particulars will
be given. Those wishing free treat
ment and desiring to test his power
must go to the Grand opera house
tonight. Office hours at Buchtel
hotel, 10 am. to 5 pm, daily, ex-
cepting the Sabbath. Entrance on
