Charles J. Lennon, proprietor of
the Hotel Dewitt at Webster, and well
known here, was stricken blind three
weeks ago and went to John Hopkins
hospital at Baltimore where a delicate
operation was performed. He has re
turned to Webster where he is con
fined to his room. It is not believed
that he will recover his sight.
At Worcester a boy preacher, 14
years of age, is attracting large con
gregations to all the churches in
which he conducts the services. He
is said to be a very capable, effective
speaker, but his sermons are common
place, at least that is the opinion of
a Putnam citizen who heard him at
the Zion A. M. E. church last Sunday.
Kar-mi and his wonderful illusion,
and sword-swallowing act were at the
Bradley last week. In their so-called
hypnotic act they read names, sen
tences and even latin inscriptions
with ease. This is a very simple act
according to the younger generation,
for they tell each other just how it
was done. It was a sure bet, however
that none of them try to swallow any
swords.
