LAST ATTRACTION. Helmann, the Magician, Will Close the Season. Helmann, the prince of the black art, is just returning from a successful tour of several Western States and will close the season after playing Roanoke. The professor will shortly sail for Europe and India for the purpose of preparing several new illusions for next season's tour, which will open up about the middle of September. Helmann has spent consinerable time and money traveling in the far East witnessing the wonderful feats performed by the Indian magicians and has made improvements in many of their best tricks. This will be the last attraction of the season and should be well patronized, as the prices have been reduced to 25, 50 and 75c. "Every trick performed by Helmann was so deftly executed that everyone was delighted. His Illusions and cabinet work were marvelous, and his magic calculated to hoodwink the closest observers. It is safe to say he is by far the cleverest entertainer of his kind. Alexandria, (Va.) Times. Did You Ever TRY Electric Bitters as a remedy for your troubles?
