RETURNED THE MONEY.
Some Honest Men Still Liye-0ne Returns
$1,000 to Plant System.

Savannah, Ga, April 15-The otf1ci-
ais of the Pant system had a very
pleasant shook a few days ago. They
received letter from q gentleman who
was supposed to have been burt In
wreck, refupding about 81 200 that had
been paid him as damages for his inju>
ries. the gentleman lives in the west
and about a year ago was one Of large
party of mbermen making a tour Of
the south. At Wayoross. on the Plant
system, there was a wreck in which one
or two Of the party were killed and
several injured. The gentleman was
among the latter. He was taken to his
home and his physicians told him he
would be mained for life. They out,
lined a serlos Of physical troubles
through which he would pass and up.
on the strength of the physioians' affi-
davits the westerner was induced to
ask for compensation for damages and
the attorneys for the Plant system ad-
vised their payment. A compromise
was effected and the injured man re
csived about $1,000. Latter develop
ments showed that the doctors were
wrong in their diagnosis, for the gen.
tleman not only did not develop any OF
the bad systoms expected, but soon re-
gained his health entirely. When he
found this was the case among the first
thing he did was to send back to the raj =
way company the money recei Ved be-
cause Of his alleged injuries, He said
the things the doctors told him would
happen had failed to happen and be did
not think he was entitled to any of the
funds Of the company. This is one OF
the nrst instances Of the kind ever re-
corded by Plant system officials.

Atkssss three thousand people gath.
cred ts Butts corner and fer blocks
around yesterday to SEQ Prof. Boone
and his wonderful ride. A committee
composed OF Messrs. Crovatt, Blanton,
Gale, Devoe Colemen and Brown drove
down to the city hall. where they wrote
it between some papers In the office
formerly used by the city treasurer,
tho combination Of q letter
box on a small card and hid
The party then drove back to the post
offies and deposited a letter. They
then went to the drug store and got
Mr.lBoono. He was securely bindfolded
with a thick handkerchief and then
taking the reins he drove in q gallop to
the city hall, found the card, returned
to the post Office. got the right box,
unlocked 1t and delivered the letter to
Mr.. Glogauer to wnom it was address
This gentleman knew nothing of the
letter and when the crowd rushed in
the front door he made an attempt to
get out the back but was caught and
had to take the letter from the hand OF
the hypnotist.
That was remarkable feat there is
no doubt and some of Brunswiok's
learned men say"I don't understand
it,"
Az the opera house last night the
largest crowd since It construction
was there and not one left dissatisfied
with the evenings performance.
Prof. Boone first put on his
mind reading work and some truly
wonderful things were done. A COM
mittee Of Of prominent gentlemen was
selected by the audience and they went
up and watched Mr.. Boone closely.
Among other things a needle was
taken from the court Of a gentlemen
in the audience, then taken to the
stage and . small hole made in the
scenery, after witch the needle was
stuck in the floor. The hypnotist was
blindfolded all the time, but he found
the pin, stuck it In the hole and in
less time than it took the gentlemen
and to do the same things.
Edgar Waite, the young man who
has been sleeping in Butts window
since Saturday night, was brought in
on q couch and awakened. M. Boode
first made him rigid and placing his
head on one chair and his feet on the
other asked some of the committee to
get and jamp ON him, but he held tn m
all up and dsvor made the least
mov4merrt Wait, was then placed In
an upi.'s position and ha'pin
shOve.o though the skin of his neck,
but "a again renamed as still as
dead man.
Fifty subjects went on the stage
when Mr.. Boone called for subjects
and Of this number about twenty were
hypnotised.
The professor had them riding them
riding brooms for hnrses, picking
Strawberries and various other laugha-
BILE things.
The house was flied with skeptics,
but when the performance was over it
is safe TO say that all present wore be-
LEVERS in hypnetiSm,
Another performance will be
given tonight and the program will be
entirely changed.
