Presenting: “The Sleeping Miracle of Strength.” This woman has a pleasing personality. By the aid of an assistant, she goes into a trance and while sitting on a chair raises her arms and lifts two stones each weighing about 250 lbs. with a man on each arm. The Jury watched this act very attentively and on the finish, some hissed and others applauded. It will, no doubt, create some talk, but doubt if it would be advisable to hold longer than this week. 10 min, full stage 2 shows.
