HERMASN--MAGIC AT THE ACADEMY OF music
That most astonishing of all magcians, Hermann.
grows In public favor the longer he performs THIS
was seen In the large and highly respectable audi
ence he had last night at the Academy OF Music.
Indeed, that vast theatre is filled every night he per-
forms. At the Brooklyn Academy OF Music on Fri
day night the rush was so great that his agents
were compelled to stop selling tickets and refuse
admission to many persons. Talk OF famous opera
singers OF your celebrated sopranos or tenors
or OF great tragedlans comedians drawing
crowded houses why Hermann beats them all. Tha
people love amusements OF such highly amusing
character, and they delight In being astonshed. Tho
laughter and bursts OF applause show how much
they relish his inimitable Illusions There Is nothing
vulgar or commonplace IN his trcks-no stage
machinery or paraphernaa. All is accomplished
with his hands and that right under the eyes OF the
audience for he descends from the stage ana
operates among them Hermann has elevated con-
jnring to high art. Nor are his feats OF legerde
main stale ones. He creates as he goes along, and
every night gives something new and startling. Last
nigni, .3F Example TO mention one Of these
tricks the placing 81 an ordinary glass tunbler In
ss ssnans Snn' at a. sss sSss g s. f s
wine, Is entirely new and perfectly inexplicable.
However, it would be utterly useless to attempt TO
describe his feats. People must see the perform
ances TO enjoy them and even then they Will go
away more puzzled than ever. One Is almost ready
to believe that II Hermann had gone into Wall street
the other day when gold was '.cornered,' he would
have conured up supply OF the precious
furnished it, for he finds silver dollars, ad
lbttum, floating invisiby in the air, growing
out OF the bald pates OF individuals In the
audience and anywhere else ne chooses To
call for them All the conJurers, magicans fortune
teers and spiritual mediums In the land should see
this greatest master OF magichat is If they be noe
afraid OF dying in despair. He is to the whole tribe
what Moses was to the magcians OF Egypt. 1t ts
their last chance and the last opportunity the public
VIII have OF seeing Hermann; for he will retire and
perform more after his existing engagements are
fulfilled. There VIII be only limited number OF per-
formances in this part OF the country. In New York
ne will appear again on Thursday and Saturday
nights next week. and then three times week for
a short period only. On Tuesday and Wednesday
nights next week he viii be at the opera House,

at the surrounding places. THIS will finish the career
OF the great prestdigtateur in this part OF America

From the above heading 1t might possibly be
imagined that Mayor Hall had performed some
brian, coup detdt by which the celebrities or
Europe were placed In his power. Such an
idea however, would be decidedly erroneous.
Not that the popular chief magistrate OF the
metropolis is not capable of such a performance,
provided any occasion for the use OF his statesman
like abilities should arise, but no movement OF
that sort would now be OF any benefit TO the
