Occnltlst Perecuted. The Adrián Press is responsi ble for the following story : "A travelinsr hypnotist, giving the royal title of "Prof. Carlos," held forth in this city last week, pretending to teil fortunes, and advertised the burial of a hypnotic subject Sunday. He was to be put into a box and the grave was six feet deep, and was to be filled. A tube f rom the box was leftto glve fresh air. The mayor allowed that he would not allow it, and so (?ave notice. When asked how he would stop it, he replied, "I don't know, but I think I have the right to." "But under what law will you proceed ?" we asked, and he said, he could not say, but would see the prosecutor. Carlos had secured a place on the Mulzer farm, and proposed to eo ahead. Then the officials gave him notice that they would prosecute him for a Sunday show, or for a dieorderly person, and the outlook was so discouragins to the "professor" that he gave up his project, and got out of town, going to Jackson, where live mon are dead more thau half the time anyway, and where they would as soon be under ground, as to live above. However, there are some pretty wide awake fellows over there, especially among the newspaper and base ball ranks, and it may be that they will put a veto also, on the burial test.
