PROF. HOWARD AT MURPHY
THEATRE NEXT WEEK

Professor Howard, who is to APP
pear at the Murphy Theatre next
week tells very interesting story of
his life which to say the least is very
much like the paragraphs from
Oliver Optic.
He began the study of Hypnotism
under the most famous Hypnotist
and medium of this time, Herbert l..
Flint. He began his career in the
study of Hypnotism and incidently
in the show business at the old Gill
Hiss Theatre in Kansas City as stu
dent for the above named man. Since
then he has played all the leading
cities in the United States. He
claims the distinction of being the
only Hypnotist to bury negro UNI
der seven feet of terra firma for "a
hours while said negro was in Hyp
aotic trance. The professor says
that it is almost impossible to get a
southern darkie in a coffin, not to
say anything of putting him under
seven feet of earth. His entertain
nent in this city will consist of slei-
sht of hand, Ledgerdemain and Hyp
notism. He also pesents very in
teresting motion picture, "Barbarous
Mexico" in three reels which he lee
lures on himself. This he certainly
is qualified to do as he was on the
ground when the picture was taken.
The picture ranges in varied scenes
If Old Mexico from the beautiful
city of Mexico to battle scenes and
the national sport of old Mexico,
