Despite the many counter attrac-

company had a large audience at the
New Phillips Theater last night. Dun

the audience who were willing to try
a few tests with the phenomena of
hypnotism and he put them through
many laughable pranks that kept the
audience laughing heartily. The var
ious phases Of hypnosis were demon
strated during the performance, and
the test in catalepsy was undoubtedly
the most convincing to the skeptical
persons in the audience. While in a
cataleptic condition young man was
placed between two ordinary kitchen
chairs in a horizontal position and

did numerous things requested by the
audience without a word being spoken
to her. During the performance Roy
Brown was awakened from his fifty
hours hypnotic sleep, during which
time he was on exhibition in the win
dow of Allen and company's furniture
store. and at the conclusion OF the
performance a young lady was put to
sleep for a period Of forty-eight hours
and will occupy the same space made
vacant by the removal of the young
man, until Wednesday night, when
she will be awakened at the New
Phillips theatre. Tonight the hypnotic
cake walk will be the principal laugh

Richmond papers will be guests Of Mr..
Murray and the Duncan company at
the New Phillips tonight.

The fact that republican bills have been

not to the liking of the majority, who
have evinced at different times a dispo-

where possible. The Myers bill for ex.
p%erimental farms is a measure the senator

campaign, but it is also a part OF the

to Pope, who is chief of detectives. He
tried to help the motorman to regain con-
