M. performance Thursday night only, May 23rd. The management has rented the theatre for this attraction to the “Du-Relli’s Spiritualistic Seance and Ghost Show,” to start immediately at tlie close of the Thursday night show. This weird seance includes messages from the dead, spirit* hands, floating tables over the audience, earthward bound and many other uncanny mys teries of “spirit rendezvous.” No children under 14 will be admitted, unless accompanied by a parent or guardian, an announcement said. This stage attraction will be at the Taylor Theatre one njght only* at 11 o’clock P. M., and judging from press reports on the show from other cities, the capacity of the local theatre will be taxed to hold the overflowing at tendance, as the public will be treated to two hours and fifteen minutes of thrills and spine-chilling entertain ment that will long be remembered. A doctor and trained nurse will be in attendance to care for those who should become ill or hysterica] brought on by the attraction that baffles science, the announcement stated.
