CIRCUS HYPNOTIST.
ATTEMPTS ON SNAKES AND EAGLES.
By Cable—Press Association—Copyright. Australian and N.Z. Cablo Association (Received April 4, 5.5 p.m.) BERLIN, April 2. A huge pyLhon, rejecting mesmerism, sank its fangs so deeply into the hand of Labero, professional circus hypnotist, that one of the snake's teetli broke and stayed in the flesh. Labero, undaunted, continued to put crocodiles, liens, guinea pigs, and rabbits to sleep. He easily conquered a boa constrictor, after which a big eagle drove its beak into the wounded hand.
Labero persisted until the eagle toppled unconscious, after which Labero fainted from loss of blood, when about to attempt to mesmerise a lion.
