Wood was born in a little cottage at
Edgarton, Martha's Vineyard, April g.,
1861. His father, Jacintho Silva, was
a poor and sickly Portuguese cobbler,
born in Fayal, Azores, who came to
this country as cooks helper on a
sailing ship. Following the exam
pie of some Of his countrymen he
~americanized his name by calling
himself William Jacintho Wood. The

lie told Of seven instances when he
refused to appear on the stage, or did
not perform satisfactorily.
One act that the slender 1~4-year-old
lad was compelled to do every night
was called by Newman THE Catalep'
sy Act.'
The lad, he alleged, was compelled
to lie with the back Of his neck rest-
ing on II chair and his heels on an
other, while three men in the audi
ence were selected to this demonstIa-
ton, according to the boy. Sometimes
their combined weight would reach
GV0 pounds, it was said.
H%ypnotism a Fake.
According to the boy, there was no
suggestion of hypnotism in the act.
He must hold his body rigid by main
strength. or be cruelty beaten. AS q
result of the strain, it is said, acute
appendicitis developed. Once, at the
town of Straw, Mont, the three men
fell down and Oscar was badly bruis.
ed.
In another act Newman would
thrust pins through the lads lips until
he would send him among the audi
ence and have someone pull out the
pins. If the boy WINGED or cried
out a terrible pounding would result
when he reached the dressing room,
it was set forth. The boys lips are
still out of shape.
Cruel Blood Test
Still another act, the boy said, was
" the blood test, in which Newman
would pretend to show the audience
that he could control the circulation
by hypnotism.
A leather band was strapped tight.
ly around Oscars forearm. In a few
moments the blood would be complete
ly draw out the fingers and hand.
Then Newman would pretend to send
the blood back by a few passes OF his
hand. In reality he would release the
strap. According to young Larson.
his hand would pain for hours after
the blood had surged back.
Often he attempted to run away
from his tormentor, but was always
caught and beaten, he said. Oscar
declared he could not write home OF
the cruelties because Newman would
read all his letters before he would
allow them to be mailed.
No Money to Go Home
The lad had no money from Sep
tcmber, 1911, till JuI.e, 1912, while ic
was with Newman, he said he was
gwen only a little over $19. He never

trouble. The following dispatch from

broken, the slender lad told the court

Suit for 3$5,O0O damages was
brought against Newman by Carl o..
Larson, 2O31 % IL ave S., the boys

In September, 1911. according to the
complaint, the lad met Newman, who
was giving hypnotic exhibitions.
Oscar was much interested in hyp-

and received IN offer to 60 with him

Hkirkad and RaatnnO
No sooner had Newman taken the
lad out of Minneapolis than his atti.

Oscar declared he was ordered to
appear on the stage as a subject and
