There was momentary disappointment on
the part of partisans of other candidates,
but that quickly passed away, and there

Indian CODjurOrs.

The stories told by eastern travel
 CTS of the tricks they have witnessed
 by coniurors in India and other
 countries almost surpass belief, and
 would be wholly disbelieved were
 not the testimony so universal and
 credible as to forbid all doubt or
 skeptucism. 4 correspondent who
 describes how a Hindoo magician
 made boy disappear in cloud of
 smoke and then brought him forth
 out of vessel which he caused to
 come out of the earth, tells of the following extraordinary tricks: "One of these consists in the coDjuror taking a ball of wood that had been
 perforated in several places, and through which strings were passed, and hurling It into the air. Up it went, dragging the cord after it, and finally disappearing The head man now instructed boy assistant to mount. which he did, climbing np tho cord, until finally the spectators lost sight of him, or thought they dld. The fakir now seemed to be Tn distress at losing him, and called loudly; then, as if Tn a rage, he siezed the rope and clambered up after him having a knife in bis mouth. In few moments dismembered leg, all bloody, fell tOthe earth; the another. several fingers, and finally the head and trunk; finally tic old fakir him self appeared, his clothes covered with gore, looking like butcher. As soon as he rec )vered from his evident exertions he went through some mummery, and collecting the dis membered and bleeding parts gave the body a push, waved his hands over 1t, and seizIng the body by the hand, jerked 1t to it's feet, and off it walked nothing the matter with it. In Bangkok a similar feat was wit messed few years ago by Ralph i Churchill. The juggler tossed a rope ladder into the air, and sent goats, dogs, cats, boys, alligators up one after another. All of them appeared running toward him from a distant quarter ten minutes later. These are tricks that seems almost super human, yet are lndlcrcusly simple when known"

Rather tOO Successful.

A few days ago Detroit wife was reading a newspaper article which tickled her almost to death ''How to Keep Your Husband at Home" ," and it was about the Troy wife who turned the sitting om into a saloon andEtbus welded her husband 10 his home and kept him nights E
 sFFiEi Detroit wife seaekaaI nIa gfi1ned and cackled again, aDdssVW- ed that she'd follow the plan to the last detail. That evening when her husband had finished his supper and was making q rush for his hat to go down and see a man on Sl00,0Q0 worth of business, the exultant wife led him into the library. There was sawdust on the floor, SIX big splttoons artisticalIy arranged around the room and bar on which rested half a dog en bottles of beer and a supply of beer glasses.
 My angel wife, may heaven bless you!" exclaimed the husband, as he looked around and took in all the de- talls.
 Then he walked around and expec- torated in each spittoon, and he walked up to the bar and swore luke a trooper and called for beer. When he had drank 1t he kicked over tho chairs and said he was just as good as Vanderbilt or any other man. When he had inbibed some more beer lie kicked over the bar and broke the bottles, and as soon as his wife began to talk politics he blacked her eye and went in to clean out the place. When the Deighbors finally got the man quieted down, things were endwise and crossw1se all over the house, while half the neigboUrhod were hunting for fre-alarm box and the other half for the pohce. When the hystericky wife had finally ex- plained her plan to the mob filling the parIor, the husband sat up on end amidst the wreck, and waved his fist about and shouted:
 "You beg your booz! Nicezz s'loon in zhls town! Nicezz wife in D'troit. Everybody come up'n driz at my 'spense! Whoo! Wherever man who wants Ter run out nigits?"- Chicago Telegram.

Pooling With a Buzz Saw

The Fort Wayne Gazette says
 Here IS the sublime spectacle of q
 Democratic Congress with magnifi- cent majority unable to carry Dem cratic measure through that body. This is little hard on them. and no wonder they feel terribly sore over tue result. But they have at least one source of consolation. that the tariff has been in operation for twenty-two years, and under it's be- nign influences the country has pros pered as never before. The people and the country are safe, even if their little pet scheme had to go the W " of all tue earth. The reason of the failure of tLeir measure Is from the fact that the people are opposed to it. Of course they were too bl:ud to see this fact, but 1t is nevertheless true, aud the real solld truth of this they all will fully realize in Novem- Der next. This thlpg of fooling with 3 buzz-saw IS 8 hazardous affair, fact that the party will discover when 1t is everlastlngly too late"

The following ponderous joke on
 American hotels is from a Berlin pa
 per: The American progress in build
 ing will be the mammoth hotel,'' soon to be erected on the Shell Road St. Augustine, Florida, This enor- nous hotel is to have frontage of three English miles and a depth of six miles; the height of seventy-fve stories will measure three thousand eight hundred and forty feet from the ground floor to the roof. The hotel will have no stairs, but five hundred balloons will always be ready to take guests up to their rooms The tables in the dining-room will measure four miles each, attendance being performed by twelve walters on on either side of the table. Music during table d'hote will be played by eight bands of seventy seven men each. The cost of the is estimated to be six hun dred and eighty million dollars. The billiard room will contain nine hun dred American, ninety nine French and one English table, and the room will be fitted with a splttoon one hundred feet in circumference.

MaIleabillity of Gold.

Gold may be beaten into such ex
 tremelY thin leaves that they will
 transmit hgbt, says the Manufactur- 1 CT and Builder. ''Seen by reflected light such films of gold retain the characteristic golden color of the
 metal; but by transmitted light they
 have a decided bluish green. The thickness of these films must natur-
 ally be extremely small. What the limit must be before the film becomes
 capable of transmitting sufficient light to be appreciable to the eye cannot be absolutely fixed, as this
 will depend largely upon sensitive
 ness of that organ. which quality
 varies with different individuals. We
 may state, however, that modern ex-
 periments have shown that a single
 grain of gold can be beaten out so as
 to cover space of seventyfve square
 inches, which would give the film
 a thickness (thinness would sound
 more appropriate) of the 1.267, ,650th
 part of ar inch. This fact affords striking illustration of the wonderful malleabil1ty of gold, property i'll which it surpasses all other metals. Microscope slides containing small square of gold, beaten out so thin as to be translucent, are faI orite ob- jects for microscopists and may be purchased of dealers in such articles. The ductility of gold-that is, its quality of permitting itself to De drawn out into wire, Is quite as re- markable as its malleabllity. It is affirmed, for example. that when a cylindrical bar of silver is coated with gold (by galvanic means, pre- and drawn into fine wire used i'll embroidering housing, etc, which still exhibit the golden color ation imparted to them, a single | grain of gold will cover a length of 345.6 feet of wire. We have no doubt i that films of gold might, with modern artifces, be prepared of the thinness of one -millionth of an incb, since continuous coating of gold having such extreme thinness may readily be obtained by galvanic means. the only difficulty in the way oeIng the xtremely delicate oper- ition of removing the film from the surface on which it is deposited and transferring 1t to glass, where 1t may )e examined.

A painting by Jules Garnier. ''Borgia's Amuse," has been refused by the Jury of the Paris Salon on the ground that it was calculated to shock the modesty of the ladies and children who visit the exhibition. The tableau represents seven nude women dancing before Pope Alexan- der, who is seated at table with Lu cretia and Cesar. Garner protests, and says there are many more immo- ral pictures in the French public gal leries. This does not say much for French art.

How Tramp was Beaten by

"You've got some nice wood over there in your yard," said seedy- looking tramp to an Austin avenue lady.
 "Yes." said tue lady of the house.

 "My husbard intends to carry it in," she replied.
 "Well," said the tramp, II will car ry it in and pile it up nice If you will give me my breakfast"
 At this offer the lady consented and the tramp went to work.
 After he mad carried in a few arm fuls the lady stepped to the door and found him sitting on the pile with his claws on hIs knees and his face buried in his hards.
 What is the matter?" said she.
 "Oh, lady,. said he, looking up, Il am so weak, for I have had nothing to eat since day before yesterday" and again he covered his face with his hands. This seemed tc rouse the lady's sympathy and she went in and soon returned with an excellent breakfast After he had swept every thing from the board, he arose and said: Thanks, my good lady, for thls sumptuous repast. Now let me give you this advice: Never again let your sympathy get away with your discretion. I'm of. Ia, tar' and he walked majestically out the front gate.

 ally the resplts have proved satisfac- tory, but when tried on a working scale the process has failed from a want of uniformity in the products. Among others who have directed their attention to the matter is Mir. Alexander Dick, of London, who, after careful experiment. and research
 has succeeded in introducing the
 iron into the alloy in such a way as to give good results on a practical scale. This success Is obtained by previously alloying the iron in such a manner that 1t is combined in def uit9 and known proportions with the zinc. When wrought iron is intro duced into molten zinc the latter readily dissolves or absorbs the for mer. The exact point of saturatiHn or the proportion dissolved or ab- sorbed varies with temperature at
 which the molten zinc Is maintained during the process, and 1t Is by care fully ascertaining and controlling this temperature that Mir. Dick has been able to succeed in obtaining a perfectly uniform product. The metal thus produced, and to which the name of Delta metal has been given, is stated to be as much supe
 rior to brass as phosphor- bronze IS to guu metal. or as steel is to iron. It possesses great strength and tough
 ness, and samples cast in sand give a breaking strain of twenty-two ton per square inch. Forged or rolled into bars it shows a tensile strength of more than tbirty-three tons per square inch, and drawn into wire oi g guage it IS found to stand sixty two tens per square inch before breaking.
