A Clever Magician

Prof. Floyd, the magician, as.
sisted by Mrs. Floyd, as Mohala,
mindreader, did what has been
pronounced the most clever work
in this department of stage art ever
seen in this city, in their engage
ment last Wednesday night. Prof.
Floyd introduced many new de.
partures in legerdemain and kept
his audience III constant bewilder.
ment and wonderment.
Mrs. Floyd also excelled in mind
reading. She was blindfolded on
the stage while Mr.. Floyd went
through the audience and selected
different articles from different per.
sons and she named and minutely
described the articles selected.
She also made arithmetical COM
putations while blindfolded, from
figures produced on a blackboard
with which she had no possible COM
munication other than that of mind
telegraphy. The Floyds are all
that is claimed for them.
This closed the seasons Lecture
Course attractions and the ladies
of the Monday Afternoon Club
who had it in charge, Gid so well
that they will conduct the Course
again next season.
