"THE GREAT CHANDOS."
FRIDAY, DECEMBER 19.
It is with great pleasure that Mr Bert Conway announces the forthcoming visit to Te Puke of the Chandos American Novelty Company, who will appear, at McDowell's Hall, on Friday, 1 December 19th. As a magician and illusionist the Great Chandos comes to this town with a wideworld reputation. His entertainment is new. startling, and novel. His handcuff manipulations are marvellous, and he is the only man who has ever attempted to dive off the Brooklyn Bridge, U.S. His death-defying feat, "The Human Target, "in which he allows any of the audience to load a muzzle-loading gun with a marked bullet, and fire pointblank at him-he catching the bullet-is thrilling in the extreme. Chandos will be supported by his own company of assistants and entertainers, who were engaged in America for a world's toiir. Foremost among them is Miss Ada Field, the. ever-pleasing balladist, who will render some pleasing songs from her unlimited repertoire. This great magician and his company, can appear for one night only in Te Puke. The prices of admission are 4s, 3s, 2s, and Is, and children under 12 will be admitted at half-price to the 4s, 3s, and ?s seats.
