The other day an omnibus full of
passengers drove up town from the
Union depot. Side by side sat COM
mercial traveller, named William Maca-
by and Mrs Winnie G. Dumbleton, the
eminent lady temperance lecturer.
When the omnibus reached the Barrett
House the commercial missionary seized
his valise and started out The lady
made d grab after him, and he halted.
81 beg your pardon" she said, "but
you have my valise."
"You are surely mistaken, madam, "
the traveller said, courteously but firm
Iy this is mine"
mo, sir" the lady replied firmly,
sit is mine. l would know it among a
thousand You must not take it.
But the traveller persisted and the
lady insisted, and they came very near
quarrelling. Presently one of the pas
sengers pointed to twin yalisc i'll the
omnibus, and asked:
"Whose is that?'' r-.
at isn't nine" said the traveller, cit
is Just like it, but this is mine.
''And it isn't mine," said the lady,
she has mine, and I'll have it Or III
have the law on him It's II pity il a
lady can't travel alone in this country
without being robbed of her property
in broad daylight, !"
Finally the traveller said he would
open the valise to prove his property.
The lady objected at first, saying she
did not want her valise opened i'll tue
presence of strangers, But as there
was no other means of settling the dis
pute she at length consented The
Traveller sprung the lock, opened the
valise, and the curious crowd bent for
ward to see.
On the very top of everything lay
big flat flask, half full OF whisky,
deck Of cards and one or two other
things that nobody knows the name of.
The traveller was the first to recover
his self-possession and speech.
MADAM" he said, ''you are right.
The valise is yours. | owe you thou

But the lady had tainted, and the
relocked his valise with quiet
smile. Early in the afternoon sign
painter down town received note in a
feminine hand, asking him to come to

Magic.


some Of the tricks Of ''Parlor Magic"
are very amusing as we'll as very simple.
The Enchanted Pin" for instance.
To perform dis trick you take COM
mon brass PIN, riIci as a man some-
times uses to fassan his shirt-collar
wien rear button tros off. To salts
fy your audience that ia. pin doesn I
contain false bottom let then have il
in their hands 10 inspect. This riII con
vince them That there is no DECEPTION
abont it. Now bend the pin in two
places fest, about one-third from the
head; a. second, the same distance
from ia point-so that the business
end win project upwards.
Again show the pin TO your audience
in order to satisfy them that it IL the
same pin, bcnt-bent on mischief.
Now place the pin on hard-bottOmed
chair, and when lator n visitor enters
invite him tO sit upon the chair. The
effect will he magical IL the ceiling is
not more than ten feet from the floor
The probabilities are that the man will
arise 80 spontaneously that his head will
make a dent in it. This innocent lit
lie trick never fails to amuse an au-
lience, and If such amnsements re-
seived more encouragement in the
domestic circle, there would be fewer
poems written asking: Where IL my

4 peculiar incident occurred OH the Goth
ultimo in the Bay OF Caiao. The attention
OF the occupants of the pleasure-yacht Her
mosa Maria, while crossing from the Island
OF San Lorenzo, was attracted by struggle
in the water between seal and Il large fish,
the species Of which they we're at first unable
to recognize. AS the yacht drew near the
seal made off, but the fish remained on the
surface, foundering in an extraordinary
manner and making some very curious evo-
lutions. The people in the yacht succeeded
in securing the animal, and it turned out 10
be magnificent corbina, over three feet IN
length. Part OF its head, with one OF the
eyes, had been bitten off by the seal, and
this had so stupetied the fish rs to render its
capture an easy matter. 1t was found 10
weigh over twenty-siX pounds.
