Some Winter Weather.

February has given us some real
winter weather the past few days
Saturday morning the government
thermometer at F. H. Bakers resi-
dence registered 8 degrees below
zero, Sunday morning IS, and Mon
day morning IL below. Only once
before this winter the weather was
below zero, and that was in January.
The winter has certainly been mod
crate one. The coal man generally
has it on the ice man during these
months, but this year they both have
their troubles, the former not being
able to dispose of as much material
to keep out the c.ld, as he would
like, and the latter not being able
to gather in enough of his commodi-
ty to keep out the heat.

A LOCAL HYPNOTIST
DEBORAH Man Gives Performance
Which Was Wonderful to
Witness.

Talk has been current in DEBORAH
for the past week or two about hyp-
notism, and the wonderful ability
possessed along these lines by To-
cal man. On Sunday afternoon
Manager Stewart of the Star Theatre
invited the members of the press and
a few friends to private perfor-
nance at the Star and introduced
Mr.. Arthur Haas, son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Chas. Haas, of this city, who
gave performance that astonished
and bewildered his audience. He
has been working at this profession
for several years, mostly at private
performances, but he could just as
we'll as not have been out on vaude-
vile circuit earning big money. His
work is good and clean cut through
out. He had seven subjects, all
young men, under perfect control
Sunday afternoon, and put them
through series of stunts that was
immensely enjoyed He had one
young man ride bicycle in a hyp-
motto state, for 80 minutes. The
machine was set up on frame and
he worked the pedals. When the
rider was told ne was going up hill
he worked with a great effort, but
finally got ION top" and resumed
his regular gait. The other subjects
were put through all kinds of acts
and responded readily to Mr.. Haas
suggestions. The great hyptonist,
Santanelli, who packed the Star
nightly for week has nothing on
Mr.. Haas. In fact, those who saw
the latter work considered him much
better. His vocabulary and stage
appearance is good and he handles
his subjects in an excellent manner
Mr.. Fredericks, who finished a
vaudeville engagement at the Star
Saturday night, Sundayed here and
took in the performance. He stated
that he saw the great Pauline, who
draws $1,000 a week, at Brighton
Beach last summer, and his work was
not one bit better than Mr.. Haas
He was greatly impressed with the
latter's work, and predicted a bright
future for him in the hypnotic pro-
fession. He is % years of age and
the youngest hypnotist in the bust
ness.
Manager Stewart of the Star has
booked him for three nights next
week, Monday, Tuesday and Wednes.
day, and all those who enjoy a hyp-
motto performance should attend, and
| if you like his work give him boost
AS rule, local artists are never ap-
preciated in their home towns, as
much as they are by strangers, but
nevertheless their ability is their just
the same. After his opening engage
ment in DEBORAH Mr.. Haas is going
out on a circuit, and give hypnotic
performances. That he will make
good there is no question, for his
work ranks with the leading profess
SIGNALS of the country.

Did You See Them?

II George Washington had only
lived in this day and had the oppor-
tunity of witnessing the vaudeville
performance Of the Cherry sisters at
the Empire theatre Monday and Tues
day night, he would, no doubt, have
gone out and cut down all the
cherry trees in existence, and told
the truth about the matter too. The
Cherry sisters visited DEBORAH about
10 years or more ago, just about the
time they left their farm home near
Marion and made their vaudeville
debut. They put on their show at
Steyer's opera house and the memory
of that performance although stale,
has always remained fresh in the
memory of those who witnessed it.
Under the circumstances, Manager
Holcomb considered them a good
drawing card and booked them, so
their old friends could see them once
more. They came, they saw, they
conquered. A big crowd was out to
greet them, and they were just "as
good" as ever. The performance is
so punk that it is actually good to
witness-and that is one reason why
the Cherry sisters have been before
the footlights SO long. In the days
before the high cost Of living Of rt :
ed, eggs, cabbages, etc. were plenti-
full, but there is nothing doing in that
line now, and it is not necessary to
use a screen any more.

against him. AS his removal from

abandoned, and the defendant was
discharged.
