she would not leave it until it was time
for her to be married. She was a priv
LEGGED character among the teachers
and pupils-a sort of a parlor boarder.
One day she came running to us and
said: Mamma has seriously gone to
work to find me a husband. l saw a
candidate last night at the theater, but
l don't like him. He squints. / am
going to see another at the Opera

our question was: 'How did you like

that his property was entailed, and
that his father died of some hereditary

our amusement, she would come with
q new story, told in her OWL sprightly

mothers horses was famed; she sup
posed that he (the horse) was heartily
tired of running after a husband for
her. At last she found the right one,

A Lucky Mine Discovery.

Some Of the best mines known have
been discovered merely by accident,
while others, again, are the result Of
years of toll and labor. Then others,
again, have been run across when the
lucky individual whom fortune favored
was thinking of any thing but falling
into a gold mine. John Quincy Ad.
ans, a namesakc Of the great John
O., struck a rich mine somewhere
down in New Mexico, in this way:
While prospecting he found his hav.
ersack on fire, his prospector's glass
having focused the suns rays upon il.
As the haversack contained about a
dozen pounds of powder he dropped it,
and got out of the way in a hurry. II
fell into a crevice and a large mass Of
rock was thrown up. Adams returned
m%ournfully to gather up what might
be left of his effects, and found an ".
ceedingly rich vein Of ore which the
explosion had exposed to view. He
sold a third interest in his find for six.
teen thousand dollars, and very consist.
emily named the mine "The Nick Of
Time."-&. Louis GLOBE Democrat.

MODERN MAGIC.
The Simple Secret Of the Marvellous
"Talking Head"

The Simple Secret OF the Marvellous
"Talklng Head"
In modern times magicians have
made much use of mirrors. The cele'
brated Sphinx" trick, or Talking
Head" which caused such a profound
sensation when it was first brought
out a few years ago, owed its astonish-
ing effect entirely to the aid Of mirrors.
Not even the marvellous automatic
chess-player Of Maezel is at all to be
compared to the "Sphinx," which
may Justly be regarded as the most re-
markable illusion ever invented for the
bewilderment Of mankind.
But while the possibility of hiding
the person Of q dwarf within the box
upon which the ch~ess-player was seat
ed might have occurred to any mi as
q solution Of the mystery, 1t was diff
cult for the spectator to imagine how
nm agency other than supernatural
could be connected with a head which
Law on a dish on a plain four-legged
table in the middle Of the stage, and
talked and smoked . pipe with as much
sang-froid ms If It had belonged to .
reasonable human being.
As has been said, the table was
placed in the stage, in full view. The
head lay in o dish on the table; it was
evidently Independent Of human sgen.

cy, for the audisncs could see under

cy. for the audisncs could zee under
the table, snd there wasahothing there.
Beneath the table weref visible the en-.
tains at the back ot<the stage. which
was hung all around with dark cloth
reaching to the floor. 1t is not surpris-
ing that this marvellous stalking head"
should have excited the astonishment
Of Europe, or that it should have puz-
zled the most eminent scientific men to
account for the mysterious phenome-
non; and yet, as it is the case with all
really effective tricks, the riddle Of the
sphinx was an exceedingly simple one.
A man was actually under the table
with his head through a hole in the
top, but his body was concealed by
mirrors SO adroitly disposed that they
reflected the curtains at the sides of the
stage. thus producing an optical illu-
sion by which the spectator was led to
believe that he was looking under the
table and seeing the hanging at the
back. The deception is so perfect that
it is almost impossible. even with a
person who is acquainted with the nat
ure of the illusion, to realize that it is
such.
An effect somewhat similar is pro-
duced by a large plain mirror inclined
away from the audience at an angle Of
forty-five degrees. In the middle of
the glass is a hole through which the
performer passes his head, which
seems to float in the air, the body OF
the man being concealed behind the
mirror. w
Another famous trick is the ''box'
trick. A large box is raised from the
floor in the middle of the stage, so
that the spectators can see around and
under it. The performer gets into the
box and closes it. When it is opened
again he has disappe@ed, or a skeleton
is found in its place. The mar is con
cealed by mirrors swinging on hinges,
which reflect the sides of the box, SC
that the audience think it Is empty
