HYPNOTIZED BY ACCIDENT.
Victim Of Amateur Experimenter Ran
wild In bristol, Tenn,

Bristol, Tenn Jan. 2tHypnotized by
accident, Charles Estey ran wild on the
streets of Bristol yesterday, imagining
himself in various attitudes and at times
fighting like madman. Rushing down
night of stone steps at full speed
with eyes closed, his head came in col
lision with telephone pole, injurins
him painfully.
1t was an hour before the spell was
removed and then the assistance of Pro-
fessor Gaivani, who has been giving a
series of hypnotic entertainments here,
was necessary.
Estey was hypnotized by Yancey Will
son. Wilson declares he did not know
he possessed hypnotic powers and that
he was only pretending when Estey be-
came hypnotiZed.
