The MAGICIAN AND THE THIEF.-
A very good story is told ofthe fakir
OF Ava, the well known necromancef.
Just as he was about to commence his
performances before cowded audience,
he was informed that man had been
robbed of pocket.book. He called
the unfortunate gentlaman aside, and
being satisfied that the story was true,
and also that the wallet contained
large sum Of money, he pledged himself
to either detect the theft or make up the
amount from Ills own purse. To this
end the door was secured, and The per-
torrance went on. At length the magi.
clan introduced his Mahometan fortune
teller, and put the following questions
SIS there man in the room who has
lost his pocket book with money in it ?"
Eyes" Some half dozen individuals
were pointed out, one after the other,
bu, to the question, us this the mani"
the figure answered the emphatic "No."
The actual victim was soon brought for
ward, and was Instantly recognized by
Mahomet as the man who lost the money.
