The Flints at Howe Opera House.

Prof. Herbert L. Flint and Grace
Marion Flint, the wellknown hypno-
fists, are at Howe opera house this week
for a return engagement. They were
here one week about two years ago and
their successful exhibitions of the science
of hypnotic suggestion during that time
gained for them, and their novel enter
tainment, a reputation which assured
the success of second visit.
The first exhibition occurred Monday
evening before fairly large and very
appreciative audience. Professor Flint
opened the entertainment with a brief
talk onthe science of hypnotism. Several
volunteered as subjects for the tests and
most of them proved to be excellent SUBJ
jects, and by their ludicrous actions kept
the audience in a roar OF laughter. A
portion of the evenings entertainment
was under the objection of Grace Marion
Flint, who, although for long time a
student of the science, has since their
last visit here become a full fledged
public operator. She is indeed clever
hypnotist and on Monday night directed
the subjects through series of extreme
ly amusing performances. The most
wonderful feature OF the evening was the
rock breaking test. The subject, one of
Prot. Flnt's company, was put in a
cataleptic state, and placed across two
chairs, resting only on his neck and
lower part OF the legs. On his chest was
placed piece of granite curbing, weigh
ing over 800 pounds. To break the
stone required several heavy blows with
ten pound hammer. 1t was accom-
plished however, and apparently the
subject was none the worse for the test.
OF course the entertainments grow more
interesting as the week progresses.
Some of the special features will be a
cake walk tonight, on Friday night a
onering circus, and minstrel show on
Saturday night

conveniently fitted up in Citizens Bank
Block, op,ned TO-DAY under the direction
of B. Frank Harris, teacher of piano, or
gan and harmony; Sidney F. Smith, in

point, and N. R. Young, instructor in
violin, viola and violincello. Both Mr..
Harris and Mr.. Young have both long
been known to St. Johnsbury people and
need no word Of praise or introduction
as they have proved themselves masters
of their professions. Of Mr.. Smith, who
has been in St. Johnsbury only about
four months we need only say that he
commenced his studies at Cheltenham.
England, and was pupil at Trinity
College and the ROYAL Academy, London,
graduating in 1899 He came to Amer
lea in April, 1900, where he substituted
at the church in Waterbury, Conn, where

his brother is organist. Since coming
here he has been organist and choir
master at St. Andrews church and has
formed class Of about 70 pupils at the
Academy which is making excellent pro-
gress. The work at the school will be
both private and class work, and will be
divided into three terms. Full descrip-
tions of the work, methods and examina-
tions are given in prospectus which has
been circulated about the village.
The rooms were formally opened yes

James Ritchie were hostesses and Misses

were prettily trimmed with flowers and
potted plants and the large number in
attendance sho wed the interest that is
already taken in the school, for which
we bespeak the best success in the new
century. An attractive musical pro-
gram was furnished. consisting OF

A Week of Evangelical rleetings.

The first of the weeks series of evan
gelical meetings was held at Grace Meth
odist church Monday night. The meet
ing began at eight O'Clock with a halt
hour meeting of praise and prayer. Then
the general topic of the evening, "The CO.
operation of the Human with the Divine,
essential to the successful promotion of
Christian work" was discussed by the
pastors of the village. Rev. E. M. Chap
man of the North church spoke on prayer; !;
Rev. G. c. Waterman of the Free Baptist
church on faith; Rev. DR.. Fairbanks of
the South church on conservation; and
Rev. A. c. Hussey of the First Baptist
church on unity. These divisions of the
general theme were Interestingly discus
sed. During the portion of the service
Mrs. Noble, the gospel singer, rendered
several solos in an effective manner.
Following this Rev. Mr.. Hunt invited
those who were to remain during the
latter part of the service to the church
parlors where refreshments were served
by the ladies of the church.
When the congregation reassembled
there was brief service of song and tes-
timony, after which Rev. Mr.. Hunt
preached a strong discourse on the
theme OF" f"Consecration," taking as his
text, "Who then is willing to consecrate
his services this day unto the Lord"
Chron. 20. S. This was followed by a
conservation service. At midnight, wher
the old year and the old century passed
the audience sat in silence with bowed
heads. In closing, prayer was offered by
the pastor of the church and the audience
arose and sang praise God from whom
all blessings fow." About 100 persons
were present at the last service. Thi
meeting, like those which are to follow

NEW EAST RIVER BRIDGE.
Its Construction May Go to the Steel
Trust.

NEW YORK, April 9.-The Tribune
says:
Steel men are greatly Interested in
the bidding for the contract for the
steel suspended structure of the new
East river bridge. Many are or the
opinion that it will afford an idea of
the means to be employed by the Unit
ed States Steel Corporation.
Those familiar with the steel situa-
ton say that there are about four
probable bidders. as follows: The Unit
ed States Steel Corporation, the Penn
sylvania Company, which has the con-
tract for making the steel for the ap-
proacheS of the new East river bridge;
the King Bridge Company, who bid on
the same contract, and the Cambria
Steel Company.
The contract, it is said, viii amount
to between 50, 900, 900 and SO, 000, 600. 1t
is probably the largest single contract
for structural bridge steel advertised
since the organization of the United
States Steel Corporation. If the big
company wishes, it is said, it can pre-
vent the smaller companies from get
ting the raw produce on as favorable
terms as heretofore. Then, also, it Is
said the big company may underbid the
smaller companies. Under the terms of
the official notice to contractors the
bids must be in April 20.

"DoRCAS.'
The Musical Comedy to be Presented
by tie Stanton Company.


'Dorcas," the musical comedy in which
the Josephine Stanton Opera Company
will make their first appearance here,
was for three seasons great success in
the States with Pauline Hall in the
title role The idea of introducing
in musical comedy, is not new one.
The reason for it is to give each and
every one of the principals chance to
do something which does not always
happen in a straight operate production,
In "Dorcas" solos, duets and choruses
from the latest comic operas, such as
San Foy,' "Flora-Dora," etc, are in
troduced and the management has found
by experience that it puts all the mem
bers of the company on their mettle and
all show at their best.
The season is limited to twelve per-
formances, commencing Thursday night
April %, with ''Dorcas," which VIII also
be given on Saturday night.
The comic opera repertoire will begin
Tuesday, April 80. There will be no sea-
son tickets sold and the management beg
to announce that no tickets unaccompa-
MED by cash will be reserved over forty
eight hours. This matter has been taken
up by Manager Love, as numerous com
plants have been made that on several
occasions parties who rendered money for
seats We're refused, after which large
numbers of seats We're returned to the
box as unsold. The parties who reserved
them left them on the ticket sellers
hands, thereby embarrassing the ticket
seller and keeping other people out of
the seats.
Wall, Nichols Company will begin the
sale of seats Saturday morning at 9
O'clock

Failing hair is caused by dandruff,
which is a germ disease. The germ. in
burrowing in to the root of the hair,
where it destroys the vitality of the
hair, causing the hair to fall out, digs

dandruff or scurf. You can't stop the
falling hair without curing the dand-
ruff, and you can't cure the dandruff

AND COMMERCIAL
The CHICAGO Market

Chicago, Oct. 12-Scarcity of offerings
and a fair outside demand for wheat gave
an upward turn to markets today, and
December wheat closed a sha1e higher.
December corn &c. down, December oats
shade lower and provisions 10 to III
higher.
At the outset the wheat pit felt the de-
pressing influence of disappointing cables.
The advance here yesterday had met
with no response, and December opened
a to A63sc. lower at 69% to 695s4%. Of
ferings were liberal at the start, but the
actual selling was only on a small scale
and of nature that indicated desire on
the part of buyers to depress the market
with a view to buying in again.
Commission houses began to buy. and
report of a good demand fer the south
west and New York brought an upshoot
in prices until December sold at 705s.
Toward the end of the short session profit
taking eased the market, and December
closed steady, a shade higher at 704B.
Seaboard clearances in wheat and flour
equalled $4,000 bushels
Corn lost the greater part of the bullish
influence of the official crop report, which
advanced prices, and on Indifferent cables
December opened 1sqA lower. Trade was
dull at the start and offerings were rather
liberal, which tended toward a further
decline had it not been arrested by the
quick bulge in wheat. Corn began to i'm
prove at once with the better grain, espe-
cially May and December which soon
sold at 54A On the small reactions there
was buying for the outside account, and
on the hard spots professionals sold.
There seemed to be considerable short in
terests to cover, but the feeling prevailed
that the rise in prices was not natural,
and December sagged rapidly at the end,
closing weak, &c. lower at 5612
A range of Ac. in December oats tndi-
Gates the dull and narrow nature of the
market. Trading was nearly all of the
scalping order, with trifling response to
the action of other grains. December
closed a shade down at 35A.
Provisions were higher from the start,
not so much from any particular demand
as from cessation of the outside liquida-
ton that has been depressing prices for
over week. Hogs were scarce, and jan
to 1515, seHing at 1870 and closing at
15221a; January lard closed 1Oc higher at
91s and January ribs 10@12c. up at 1909
797
