WONDERFUL WOMAN ENTERTAlNS
Anna Eva Fay. the Fair Mahatma, Re-
ceiVeS Newspaper Representatives

Anna Eva Fay, whose weird and
wonderful exemplification OF the oc-
cult mas gained for her the title of the
Fair Mahatma," rendered a reception
to the local newspaper people yester
day afternoon in the parlOrs of the
Clayton House. Miss Fay, who is
delightful and entertaining conversa-
tionalist, quite won her auditors 10y
her graphic accounts of her journey in
strange worlds. She spoke but little
of herself. and her wonderful gift OF
devinatiOn, simply claiming that her
feats both in the cabinet and in her
new feature "Somnolency," were ac-
complished entirely by a new sense
and not through spirits from the vast
deep.
Miss Fay exhibited many souvenirs
of her travel, including nuggets OF yir-
gin gold which she had picked up her
self in the Slondike. Miss Fay gave
some amusing experiences she had
undergone in India and Siberia, and
the restrictions that were thro wn
about her performances in those
places. She has an engaging personal
ity, is highly educated and possesses
magnetism to a large degree.
Miss Fay opens her engagement in
this city at the Academy of Music to-
night, and there is every reason to ex.
pect that she will attract a large and
unusually representative audience, as
her fame has preceded her here. The
performance will open with her cabi-
net feats. which will be guaranteed by
a committee of well-knOwn. men who
will see to it that there is no cOllusIon
and that everything is honestly and
squarely done. At the conclusion of
these feats. there will be short olio,
in which the Lucier family will appear
in their musical act and the Lees in
illustrated songs and their great sus-
pension act.
The performance will conclude with
Miss Fays wonderful exhibition, en-
titled "Somnolency," in which in an
apparent hypnotic sleep she will an
swer questions that are written on
notes placed in the pockets OF tie au-
ditors. She will not only answer the
questions, but will give the names OF
those who ask them. This at is 50
weird and marvellous that it must be
seen to be understood.

TALKED ON PHYSIOGNOMY
Prof Willis. of New York. Delivers
Interesting Lecture

The Study Of Character" was the
subject Of an interesting lecture at
Goldey College to-day delivered by
Professor Willis. OF New York city. He
has spent twenty years in the study OF
physiognomy. and his talk to the stu
dents was of great value.
He defined physiognomy as a knowl-
edge Of nature, and said people do not
know themselves because they do not
study themselves To be successful in
business, people must not only know
themselves. but they must also have a
good knowledge of other people. A
person who has a high forehead is
usually a good reader Of nature. Form
and character are inseparabe.
He discussed the form of the face.
and said that what you want your face
to be, You must be in your inner life.
Bad thoughts, as well as good
thoughts, stamp themselves on the
face. AS you improve your mind and
thoughts. you improve your face. The
best recommendation a young man on
young woman can have is bright
honest intelligent face A bright
happy disposition will do more to make
young women beautiful than the best
powders TO be bought at the drue
stores A bad temper and sour dis
position will show itself on the face
and make person look like the last
rose of Summer.
The professor was very interesting
in his discussion Of the alphabet Of
the face" and told his audience how
to read character in the nose mouth
and eye. He said a person with fat
fluffy hand is usually lazy. and that
one with sharp. bony knuckles is usual.

AMONG THE PLAYERS.

THE Electric Spark" comes to the
Opera House next Monday night. The
production is made with new scenery,
new company, new cOstuming. and
a dozen numbers or so of new music
specially written for this attraction as
additions to the musical selections
which are already a part OF this piece.
Frank Daniels and Jennie Neamans
first became known to fame in the mu-
sical absurdity called "The Electric
Spark" which met with such great
success both in this country and Eu-
rope.
The Al Reeves famous big company
which comes TO the Opera House on
Friday night, is conceded the leading
attraction of its kind, numbering. as 1t
does, nearly half a hundred people
most of whom have gained national
regulations. Principal among the per-
sOnnel of Mr.. Reeves company this
year, as last, is Miss Inez Meeusker,
the famous American prima donna
whom AL Reeves has engaged. paying
her, beyond doubt, the largest salary
ever given to singer in a vaudeville
company. The engagement of the al
Reeves show is for one night only.
Miss Mecusker positively appears at
each performance.

The Young Republicans, of the
FourtI Congressional district, will
see it that Harry woodward goes
.5sCongress in due time. He is a
young man full of hope, ambition, a
stainless character, indomitable
perseverance, and born leader. If
his friends don't want to cripple him
they must abide by the actions Of the
convention that, we believe, unfairly
nominated his opponent. If Hughes
loses any Republican votes, that loss
should come from his own end Of the
State. This is not intended to com
init this paper to the support OF
Hughes, but it makes no denial of
It's warm feeling for Harry Wood,
yard, and only offers this suggestion
in his future interest.

or the people who are to be benefited
by such legislation, must choose from
among themselves candidates and

menis Of the government, and their
candidates must not be taxed to death

You sum the whole matter up and

elected upon the issues without mon

MT until then, will cooperating in

more to m0nicd men for candidates
