A Clever ftypnotist.

Mrs. Marie Hall, of Brown
wood, under the auspices CT the
Ladies Of the Maccabees gave a
number of performances IN hyp-
notism last and this week to
good houses. The show was a
good one from start to finish and
showed Mrs. Hall an expert
in this mysterious art Her
subjects were taken from the
audience and in nearly every
instance they yielded to her
power. At Tuesday nights en-
tertainment Prof. B. =. Bowers
Boy band was hypnotized and
under that power rendered selec-
tion of their most difficult music.
The evenings entertainment was
concluded with a burlesque Of the
old San Angelo brass band.
A number of boys from the
audience after being hypnotized
were given tin pans, jugs, etc,
and they marched down the hall
playing what they thought to be
musical Instruments.
Mrs. Hale is one of the best
hypnotists that ever visited this
city and her entertainments were
well worth the price of admis.

thing for you to do would be to

You will please excuse me for

you to devote a column of your

You give the people Hail

to Chicago to Montgomery Ward
and to Sears Roebuck, because
you say, we will have to pay cash
to those people, while our mer-
chants will give us credit.

if | had the goods before me &C
tually. | can see what price
they are, and know that is the
price charged to the banker, the
cattle king the common day labor
ers, or the Peon sheep herder
The same price all round OH the

If want to know what goods
the San Angelo merchants have,

If there is any one thing that An.
derson does need it is good place for
tie farmers who come to town to leave
their teams. As it is they have to
hitch in the streets which are often 80
crowded as to make it almost impos.
sible to secure room and to leave their
horses in safety. If there was good
lot somewhere with racks and sheds
it would certainly be great ooDvsn-
ienoe as we'll az protection to the
stock which has to be exposed to the
weather under present conditions.
We do not know where lot could be
found for this purpose, but we dare
say that little thought upon the part
Of our wide-awake, progressive citi-
zens would lead to the discovery Of
one. We suggest that the Chamber
Of Commerce take the matter up and
see what can be done in securing
suitable lot.
