A most extraordinary experiment of animal magnetic phenomona will be produced. A subject will be placed in a state of mesmeric sleep three or four hundred yards from the City Hall, and the subject will then be attracted back to the Hall. One or two gentlemen will be selected to test the experiment, so as to demonstrate to the audience the extraordinary power the Professor possesses. (The advertisement warns that persons not conducting themselves properly will be asked to leave). |
