Zeno. lh wonderfnl Hindoo." gave
an exhibit at the opera house Saturday
night, to an audience of greater number
than generally attends a lecture. Those
who are familiar with the old-tim me--merism
will recognize these performan
ces as something perhaps a httle farther
along in the same road. "Zeno prefers
tc the name mesmerism and hypnotism,
that of suggestion. He seems more than
nsnally candid and fair, and evidently is
himself convinctl of the illimitable
strength of concentration of mind, and a
tirm purpose, but in this connection he
said that he would like to have some
body hynoptize him to such an extent
as to help him get rid of the tobacco
habit, which he detested and loathed,
but, thus far. had not bn able to shake
on". The delineations of character were
well received by the audience, and re
minded of the physiognomists and the
phrenologists. He claims that remark
able cures of disease have been made
through the exercise of the power of
suggestion, and that spiritualism t so
called 1. mental healing, and christian
science are dhTerent phases of the
power. Prof. Zeno will be here all the
week, and gives an entertainment thi.-
Tuesdav evening.
