BY WEIRD
MENTAL
POWER

Barring her life to take revenge
upon the man she said had aban-
doned her to marry another, Miss
Gertrude Whinnery, Monday, in
the court of Recorder Broyles
and later in an interview, related
an amazing story Of living for a
full year under the mysterious
love-spell of E. G. House, trav-
cling salesman.
The pretty witness declared that
she had been absolutely dominated by
the strange power of House and that
he had confessed to her that he had
been hypnotist for years.

snakes in his hands-snakes with

time after time to break the mystic
rious influence, but | couldn't.

public. | am satisfied that the young
woman he married Friday was drawn
to him In the same manner as / was"
A crowded courtroom listened to
the young woman's story in won-
der. Recorder Broyles was so i'm \
pressed that he ordered Ed Arthur,
police court Investigator, to look fur
Their into the case and to take 1t up
with the Federal authorities with

BOY MAY DIE OF
BULLET wounds
Twelve Year Old Neil Robidou
Accidently Shot While
Hunting.

Neil Robidou, 12-year-old son OF
George Robidou, local drayman, is, in
st. Alexius hospital in grave danger of
death, as the result or a hunting acci-
dent which occurred Sunday. Reports
from ,;he hospital state that he will
live through the nighs, at least, al
though a bullet from % calibre rifle
penetrated the intestines four times.
The lad had gone hunting with a
Younger brother, and the Two were sit
ting on tlhe railroad track only few
blocks from their home when the acci-
de1l5 occurred. The younger brother
wanted to shoot at a sign in front OF
him, and stained to publ The gun from
under his arm. He was holding onto
the butt OF the gun. and as he dragged
it forward the hammer caught on his
clothes. The bullet entered the boys
side just above the right hip, went
through the bowels and lodged in the
abdominal wall.
Carrying his rifle. the boy walked a
short distance. Autos passed him and
he tried to hail them, but the driv-
ers Of the cars evidently did not un-
derstand his condition He finally
succeeded in attracting the attention
OF Mandigo's car. and he was taken
to his home, and then to the hospi-
tai An operation was performed,
and the bullet removed. He had lost
a great deal of blood and it is felt
that the time lost in getting him to
the hospital will be serious handi-
cap. If he could have secured help
from the first auto that passed, he
would have been much stronger when
the operation was performed The
crisis will probably be passed today
or tomorrow. IL
