theatre has been fortunate in secur-
ing the services of Clifford, the hyp-
notist, for a three-day engagement
starting today. Clifford has just
completed a o u of the west where
he was the headline attraction at
the leading Keith houses. Many will
remember Clifford, who appeared
here a year ago. and as before his
performance is one screaming laugh
from start to finish. During his stay
in this city he will demonstrate the
method employed in some of the
hospitals throughout the country for
the production of mental a~nesthesia
in bloodless surgery. Clifford will
have a young woman sleeping in the
Ludwig furniture store window, be-
ginning this afternoon at 2 o'clock,
who will be awakened on the stage
of the Majestic during the evening
performance which will be followed
by experiments in hypnotism on
those who will volunteer to go on
the stage. Clifford is the only hyp-
notist on the stage today who
makes the claim that he can put a
subject to sleep against their will.

The New York Govcrnorship

NNE OF the most interesting Of the many

The Newcastle Case

cident OF this sort occasionally strikes an
ominous note. But only the highly cxct-
able will see in the Newcastle case threat

Exequaturs OF Slater and Brooks were
withdrawn ny the British government as
the result Of charges that these American
agents had used their positions to dis

an Unfair advantage. An investigation was
started promptly by Washington; three

result has been apparently complete refuta-
