Would be indeed unfair to either
deny or amrm her supernatural
gifts until the world has seen
the proof. _
David Abbott at 3316 Center,
street. Omaha, is one who has
given a great deal of attention
to Eugenie Dennis. Mr. Abbott
is a master in legerdemai‘n. His
life work is the devising of ap-
parontly impossible phenomena
for the use of stage magicians.
He is a magicians’ magician. and
there are few tricks which ye'gc
on the supernatural or the an-
canny which he is not familiar with. it
has been his boast that he oonld'do nny
“stunt" any of the so called spirit. mediums
could do. And he has demonstrated that
he can explain in simple English words the
most mutations of the “spiritual" .mnni-
locations of 'ftrnntze mediums."
It has been said that half of the tricks in
use by magicians the world over were. in- -
yontod by Abbott. He himselt is not of the
stage. But his home in Omaha is summed
with oontrivances of all sanctum»!
which he reproduces psychical tricks ‘to
prove that. they are not psychical at all.
One'of his guest exhibitions is toast-api-
tale himself. ' He'vill be standing openly

Abbott says he will tell “a most fascinat-
ing story" to the Society for PFFChical Re-
search. Some of the carefully compiled
proofs of important manifestations of
Eugenie's have been assembled and are
quite interesting.
Wednesday evening. February 8. Mr.
Abbott assembled tWenty-iive guests at his
home to meet the girl and to observe demon-
strations of her unusual tendencies. it is
doubtful if that evening will ever be for-
Mn by those Who came‘ to see out of
curiosity and who found one of the most
enthralling of evenings.
