plains. The government authority interposed
and disarranged many OF their plans and land

Edwin Booth and DR.. Furness, a mem
Der of the Sevbert Commission of the
University of Pennsylvania. attended a
private seance at Egyptian Hall this
morning, and it was very much aston
ishing tragedian who shook hands with
Professor Keller at the, close of the per-
formance. It was the cabinet trick.
Keller, after being securely tied to q
young man who volunteered to assist,
asked the graf actor to put his head in
side the cabinet Mr.. Booth did so, and
i'll a twinkling the hat which he wore
was transferred to the magician's head,
and he appeared in Keller's hat. The
action was so quick that detection was
impossible, and the look of blank as
tonishment that spread over Mr.. Booths
face was ludicious in the extreme.
Keller, still securely tied, called for
| the cabinet door to be cleared. In an
instant terrible racket was being kicked
inside and naked arms were thrust
| through the aperlures in the doors.
"Well, bless my SOUL" said DR.. Fur,
ness, lodging tamborine that came
flying out toe top of the cabinet, "What
do you think of it, Boothf"
''I think, said the tragedian, shouting
into the doctors ear-trumpet, that il
is the devilr"
A plain fiat table was then produced
and Mr.. Booth was asked to place hi:
hand on it and let.his thumbs touch those
of Kellar, who stood on the opposit side
This was done and the table was lifted
into the air. Mr. Booth let go, and il
a moment more Keller brought it dowr
with terrible crash, braking off one o
its legs.
