EM FAY JIT Classy Bill Opens the Second Week at the Playhouse. Occultism and thaumaturgy will be seen at the Majestic Theater this week. Mrs. Eva Fay, the beautiful Indian widow of the late John T. Fay, will weave the mystic spell.

If reports from other cities are to be given full credence Mrs. Fay will be the sensation of the day during her engagement here. Her work is so tar above that of the ordinary telepathist that there is no room for comparison. She almost compels belief that she is gifted with superhuman talents. Mrs.

Fay proves herself a skilled and scientific manipulator of the arts of the East Indian Yogi and famed Mahat-mas, being herself a native daughter of India. Her wonderful exhibition, adroitness and dexterity comprise the most finished performance of occultism and psychic coutrol ever offered to the American people, and it is necessarily mysterious. Mrs. Fay is not a spiritualistic medium and there is nothing supernatural about her work. In the answering of questions, identifications and descriptions not all of Mrs.

Fay's answers are -correct about 80 per cent it has been found but the proportion is such as to make it a truly wonderful exhibition. Mrs. Fay positively gives no private audience to any person. She is not a fortune teller, palmist or pretender of any kind, and it is not supposed that any person in the audience will be influenced by her exhibition in any way beyond the moment. It is for purposes of entertainment and diversion that this exhibition is given.

Questions written on slips of paper by members of the audience are answered with startling rapidity without even being brought upon the stage where the woman sits blindfolded. In each case she gives the name of the inquirers. If her answers are not always correct (and she does not claim infallibility) the constant succession of "here," "here," as she gives names and of "yes," "yes," as she repeats questions proves that something marvelous is being accomplished.

Laughter causing replies to some of thequestions varies the weirdness of the "whole performance.
