BEEGAS's MAGIC HASpcUrrs.-Louis,
Of the fair hair and smiling counte-
nance, at the Express saloon, played
rather a "good joke on Snyder ms
morning. Billy Began has a very neat
pair of patent handouts, which not
having occasion to use now that ne mas
quit the police business, he left at the
saloon. Louis happened to spy them
this morning lying under the counter
and took a notion to try them on. He
had no idea but that he could pull them
open Just as easily IS he could shut
them together, but it was a dead shut
and no open, and he suddenly found
himself as securely handcuffed as
though Began had done ii. Here was
queer situation for an innocent young
man, and one not so easily got out of.
Billy Began was the only mar who
held the key to that situation, but
where was Billy? Louis is o great IA
yorite among the boys, but the joke was
too good on him; not one would 60
after Began, so poor Louis finally had
to 20 himself, handeufed as he Was,
up and down the public street in search
Of Billy. He couldn't find him, and had
to return to the saloon in despair. AZ
ter awhile some IN took pity on his
helpless condition and went and brought
Began to his release. Louis has no
affection for handouts, nor any desire
to experience some more Of them. He
describes the sensation as peculiarly
d~emoralizing, and thinks q man could
not wear them six months without nat
= urally degenerating into q thief. Half
an hour longer with them on would have
set him to nipping handkerchiefs.
