NeWmann, the HYpnotfzer.

Prof. Newman gave some remark
able exhibitions in hypnotism and mind
reading in the two entertainments he
gave at the opera house Monday and
Tuesday evenings of this week. He
demonstrated his peculiar powers in
his drive blindfolded through the
streets Monday afternoon and his find
ing of the hidden card chip in E. B.
Anderson's store. A committe COM
posed OF M. j. Jaax, Roy Jesmer, o.
w. Brown and Frank Morneau left the
Commercial hotel in a two-seated rig
and drove north to First street, west to
the Security bank corner, north to M.
b. church and thence east to the main
business street, and south to Ander-
sons store. Here the committee left
the rig and went into the store, taking
with them card chip which they
placed in the hat band of hat in the
second box from the corner On the hat
table. They dreve, back to the hotel,
and were Joined by Pref. Newman,
who wore a very lark hood wink, and
E. B. Anderson who had been left at
the hotel with the professor. When
+ MIR. Laax mentally estimated the
height of the bed to the spring wagon,
the professor elevated his right leg to
just the required height and stepped
in. He took the lines and whip, and
bareheaded he started the team on the
gallop, making the exact route, and
passing several teams as nicely as a
driver with two good eyes. He came
to Anderson's store, but team was
standing directly in front of the store
and he was obliged to pull out and
drove up just little beyond Jacks
store. He grabbed hold of one of the
men and started for the store, going
first to Jacks store, but immediately
turning away and proceeding to An
derson's store. He evidently was we'll
hoodwinked, as he bumped his head
quite hard against part of the storm
door. On entering the store he went
down the right aisle and around one
side OF the hat tables. He then went
up to the hat table and stopped d.
rectly by the hat box, but he was
bothered some in locating the chip and
changed his luck by passing up Mr..
Jaax and getting the services of Mr..
Brown, with whose mental assistance
he was able to lift out the hat and find
the chip. Prof. Newman threw off
his hoodwink, and ran to the rear of
the store, crying ''Get me some water!''
HIS seemed ready to collapse, but soon
regained his composure.
His exhibitions at the opera house
were wonderful demonstrations of his
hypnotic and mind-reading powers.
His methods were clean, concise and
wonderfully effective, and his program
was replete with many novel and orig
lnal features. His statuary features
were wonderful, and his fascination
scene deserves special mention. He
was greeted with hearty applause from
time to time, and all who attended are
giving his work unstinted praise, He
has certainly earned his title of ''New-
man the Great.' 5.

Thrown From a Moving Train.

Albany, n. Y, March 2S.-About 8
o'clock last night a track walker on the
Delaware & Hudson Railroad, heard
faint cries for help coming from the bot
tom of a thirty foot embankment. He
scrambled down and found the cut and
bleeding form of beautiful woman APP
parently about % years old. Her face
was covered with blood, her clothing
badly disarranged, and she was suffering
apparently from very serious injuries.
The authorities were notified and she was
hurried to the hospital. There it was
found that her left arm was broken, her
right leg badly cut, her head cut in sew
eral places, and her body badly bruised
from head to foot. From the nature Of
the wounds, the physicians were inclin-
ed to believe that the woman was either
thrown, for fell from a moving train.
Her condition is very serious but it is
believed that she has a chance to recover.

TELEGRAPHIC NEWS.
The Mississippi.

New Orleans, March 28.-Ten lives
are known to have been lost in the great
food at Greenville, Miss, last night,
and adyices received today say that a
large part of the city is completely mum
dated. 1t was learned at daybreak that
one woman and FIVE children were
caught by the water in a one-story cot
tage and drowned before they could he
rescued. Four others suffered the same
fate, but the extent of property loss can
not now be ascertained. From the time
the leyee broke yesterday in front of La
Grange plantation, up to the present
moment, the water has continued to back
into the city, and the latest advices say
it now eight feet deep at many places in
Greenville. Work was begun for the
protection of the levees the moment the
river embankment gave way, but the
water rushed into the city before it could
be constructed. Distressing cries for
help reached New Orleans this morning,
dispatches saying that the water had ex-
tinguished the fires in the electric light
ing plants leaving the city in total dark
ness. A desperate fight with the water
was begun at daybreak, when fifty con-
victs began the construction Of levee in
the middle of Washington avenue. One
hundred more convicts were fastened to
the scene from Huntington to help in the
work. Unless more boats are sent to
Greeuville, many other persons will be
drowned. The situation is awful. Women
are said to be frantic and their screams
are heart-rending. Children cling to the
clothing of mothers and the men are ut
terly powerless.
The Mayor of Greenville has just called
for volunteers, and five hundred citizens
have already responded. Only six city
blocks are above the water.
Greenville is now practically under
water and it is believed the worst is
vet TO come. The levee at Catfish
Point, 30 miles above town, is weaken
ing every moment, and should it break,
the little Mississippi town will receive
deluge. At noon only four squares
were not under water. Many persons
were rescued from roofs. The water
has shut down factories and business is
at standstill.

SENATOR MoRGAY's PLATFORM. -
Senator Morgan yesterday outlined his
views of what should constitute the
democratic platform next year. He
favors the dropping of the issues of 1866
and 1900 and the adoption Of an agrees
sive platform based on the old-time prin-
ciples of the party. His two principal
planks are First, the payment of the
national debt and all other obligations
in Specie, and the leyying of uniform
tariffs and internal taxes in our insnlar
possessions, which are to be the same as
in the United States. The other issues
which he would include in the platform
are encouragement to Cuba to adopt free
trade and to welcome annexation reduc-
ton of the tariff; trust law extending
the operation Of the Sherman law to all
monopolies selling goods TO the govern
ment, and a reaffirmation of the general
principles of the party as laid down in
national conventions prior to the civil
war. He has no objection to the nomi-
nation for President ofa man who bolted
the ticket in 1896 and 1900.

The French Congregations.

Rome, March 2S.-Up to the present
time $1,000 members of the French
congregations, who have been expelled
from France by the law of associations,
have asked to be allowed to transfer
their organizations to America. The
Vatican is rather favorable to this pro-
ject, but the propaganda thinks they
are more needed in French Canada and
Spanish America. Beside this, it is
pointed out monasticism has never done
well in the United States Two hun
bred thousand monks in all are now
leaving France. This is the greatest
religious exodus in modern times.

SATURDAY EVENING, MARCH 49, 1908

IT WAS an observation of the anclen's
that the things we dread most never
come to pass, and the truth of the say
inc was never more plainly illustrated
than in the history of this city during
the winter that has now about passed
away. During the latter part OF last
summer and fall there was natural
anxiety concerning the fuel problem
which was to confront one and all when
the cold weather should be ushered in.
Numbers of housekeepers made prepara-
tions to burn wood and orders for coke
were sent in so fast that the officials at
the gas works found themselves unable
to fill them for weeks after their recep-
ton. Some people were experimenting
with salmon bricks soaked in coal oil,
and so far as results were concerned
succeeded only in filling their houses
with bad smells. Time went on and
after all the apprehension experienced
there seems to have been no period
when moderate supplies OF coal could
not have been purchased from home
dealers. As the winter advanced the
receipts increased and fears Of coal
famine were gradually dissipated. 1t is
true. it was necessary to pay advances
on former prices, but so far as can be
learned no actual suffering resulted from
the impossibility of procuring fuel.
The above should prove a hint TO all
in times when there is a temptation to
entertain anxiety about the future
which generally takes care of itself

THE VIRGINIA House of Delegates
Yesterday adopted a resolution providing
for the adjournment Of the Legislature
from May 18th until November 10th,
and for the appointment OF commits
sion to codify the new constitution, and
reports from Richmond are to the effect
that many members of both the House
and the Senate now concede that much
time would have been saved if this
method had been adopted in the begin
ming. Away last year, Mr.. Cation, the
member from Alexandria, and other far
seeing members advocated the adoption OF
lust such measures as that adopted yes
terday by the House, but they were
voted down. 1t was then shown that
the legislature, as body, would not or
could not codify the laws under he new
constitution and that q committee con-
sisting of those who understood such
matters would eventually have to do the
work. After all this delay and the ex-
penditure of thousands and thousands Of
dollars of the States money the House
has about come to Mr.. Caton's ideas
concerning the matter and it is hoped
that the Senate will at once concur with
the House and that the legislature will
take long recess. The recent constitu-
tional convention and the present legis-
lature will long be remembered as bodies
of much talk and little work.

SHE WROTE FAREWELL. -Helpless
and alone on the top floor of her home,
Mrs. Bette Harris Haines, a weIl-known
woman of Richmond suffered a stroke of
paralysis of the brain few days ago.
She fell to the floor, but later gained con-
seriousness. With the knowledge that
death was near at hand, she tried to call
for aid but the ralsied tongue refused
utterance and total paralysis of one side
prevented her helping herself She
managed to obtain paper and wrote
three short notes, one each to her hus-
band and two sisters, saying that she felt
the hand of death upon her, briefly re-
citing her helpless predicament and
bidding them farewell. She was found
late in the afternoon unconscious and
died soon afterwards.

THE COUNT of the vote in New Hamp-
shire this week to amend their constitu-
ton shows the defeat Of the woman sui-
frage amendment by nearly two to one.
The antitrust amendment ard that
imposing upon suffrage an educa-
tional qualification were adopted by
Il large majority. This is gratifying.
1t shows that short haired women
are not so potential in New England
as formerly; that New Hampshire
is breaking away from her protection
and trust ideas and that as she has
adopted an educational qualification for
her own voters she may eventually I'M
derstand why the southern States are
doing the same thing.
