Six Mo Dths in lltw York City.
rWell, the Magician, in 1892, ap
peared at the Eden Musce, one of the
most refined and fashionable places
of amusement in that great city, for
six consecutive months, to crowded
houses nightly. When it is known
that l'rof. Powell gave each week of
his engagement there nearly a com
p tte change of programme, some
idea may be had of the extensive rep
ertoire of this great wonder worker.
His performances were witnessed by
over 200,000 people in New York
during that period and he was the talk
and amusement craze of the fashion
able amusement circles there. Dur
ing the annual convention of the
Christian Endeavor Society, in New
York, in that year, it is estimated that
over 3000 delegates from that society
alone witnessed his performance. If
you see him once it is dollars to
doughnuts you will go again. There
is a peculiar chaim and fascination
about his entertainment that is irresis
tible. Everything new. At Opera
House, Friday, Jan. 19th. Trices 25,

sale at Slate's book store.
