when he-hypuotlZed one of his train
ed dogs and hanged the animal sus-
pended in the air by pure power OF
mental strength. supported by abso-
lulely nothing human OF mechanical.
When asked BY a Standard man
what was the sec-et. Mr. Carlos be-
came quite indignant, declaring that
the act was legitimate and not the re-
suit OF any trickery.
He is the only man in the world
with the exception of the famous
French magician Chlcot who can hyp-
notize IN animal and compel his
movement through the air. support

The stunt is truly a good one. and
lad the entire audience guessing.
Don Carlos show of trained dogs
and monkeys Is one of the best we
have ever seen. and is really the head
liner OF the program.
Don Carlos is the master OF cere-
monies on the vaudeville stage and
