Subject Is Insane and Hypnotist
Dying.
RESULT OF OCCULT sEANCE


Los Angeles. May 1Os--The mental
collapse OF Attorney George d. Blake
regarded here az man Of exceptional
talents, has led to a strange story OF
hypnotic influence. It IL now believed
by his friends that his madness was
brought on by the Vaccinations Of
Maud Won Frietag. a spiritualistic
medium and slate writer. Color is
lent to this belief by the fact that the
woman is now dying at 6lS East
Twelfth street Of some disease OF the
brain under what appears to be a
hypnotic spell. which she herself can
not throw of. In her struggle with
death she repeatedly calls the name of
George Blake. II is said that few
days before she fell Ill she and Blake
INDUCED together in sort Of "ocul-
tory" in the course Of which she sub
jected the young lawyer to her full
powers of hypnotism.
