Four robbers entered an express car on
the Chicago, Rock Island and Pacific

Joliet and Morris, Illinois, murdered the
express messenger, Nichols, and robbed

Indian Jugglers.

A correspondent of the Philadelphia
Record In London, speaking of the In
dian village there, says: "Why, any
thing thai we WesternerS have ever
seen in the prestidigitation line is SIM
ply child's nonsense compared to
what these Indian juggiers do! The
principal performer is a. man from
Hyderabad, part of whose name is
Sayad Ussen, and if that poor Mo-
hammedan only knew it, there is a
fortune awaiting him in the show halls
of America. Mind that he has no
paraphernalia, no tables, chairs,
trick bluaderbusses, or anything of
that sort. He stands on a rickety
temporary platform right among the
audience, and lays down strip of
two or three yards of white sheeting
muslin under his feet. He wears g.
Jacket and trousers of that hazy red
India silk, the garments as tight fit
ting as they can be.
His first trick is with little woollen
bag and some eggs. He shows the bag
empty; shows that he puts two eggs in
it. Then he filings the bag down, jumps
on it, pounds it with mallet, turns
it inside out. No egg-not g. fraction
of one. Then he holds the bag at
arms length; you hear the dull thud
Of drop from some unknown quarter
of the hemisphere, and of course there
are tue eggs intact in the bag. The in
terpreter requests any gentleman to
lend the conjurer his handkerchief.
platform, and Sayad motions to him
to knot two ends of his handkerchief.
The gentleman does so, and Sayad
urges him to make the knot hard and
firm. It becomes as hard as hickory
nut, and the handkerchief is thrown
on the platform by the gentlemen HIM
self, the conjurer instantly pickingit up
daintily by the center and showing
that there is not q vestige of g. knot
in it.
Anything neater than this trick [
never saw, and wish somebody would
tell me how and when that coniurer
managed to unite that knot, as it was
knotted by the gentleman himself
and the handkerchief thrown on the
ground by him, and it never left the
sight of the audience for second.
The Indian basket trick was done
more surprisingly than | ever saw it,
but [ cannot stop to go into details
of that. Another trick was most odd.
A boy from the audience was called
up, and the moment he got on the
platform the conjurer hit him on the
back of the head and made him spit
out a whole handful of money. The
next time [ go | shall get on the plat
form for that trick, and if he makes
me spit out a mouthful of money [
shall pocket it and walk off-that' s

Forgery Made Easy.
caste.

David N. Carvalho, handwriting
expert in the district attorneys Office
at New York, says that forgeries by
amateurs are increasing and that they
are encouraged by the bad practices
that have grown up in the commercial
houses-the use OF photographic pens
and anjline inks. Many large houses,
he says, recognizing the lack of char
acter in a signature written with a.
stylograpn pen, have discarded them
altogether in signing checks and pa
pers of similar Importance, and the
surrogate s Office at New York requires
paper to be signed with steel or a
quill pen. A stylograph signature is
easily initiated, and when it comes to
identifying the genuine signature, a
difficulty is met, arising from the ef-
feet of tine movement on the essential
characteristic features. Aniline inks
are still more dangerous, because they
can be copied exactly by the use of
copying pads on the principle of the
hektograph.

The Once-Famous Car.
From the Albany Express. !

A young gentleman of this city Jour
neyed to Poughkeepsie the other day,
and being DESTROYS of relieving the
monotony of long ride, repaired to
the smoking-car. It was an odd-look-
ing vehicle, and despite it's age and
palpable wear and tear, it still retained
some evidence offormer grandeur. The
young gentlemen noted this, and one
of them remarked to the conductor
that sit was a queer kind of caboose
for a smoking-car. "You're right, !"
returned the ticket gatherer. s'I'm
sorry to see the old girl come to such
pass as this. 1t was upon this car
that the remains of President Lincoln
were carried from Albany to Buffalo
upon the occasion of that memorable
funeral cortege in 1865. But in one
way we keep the recollection of that
sad event wildly impressed upon our
memories. In one end of the car we
have a large photograph of Washing
ton and in the other one Of Lincoln.
Both are entwined in flags, and the up
per portions of the car appropriately
decorated" "What's the number of
the carr" queried one of the excur-
sionists. ''No. $50, and she's at
tached to the O'Clock local to Pough-
keepsie every day"

CREATION.

vi ner heart and her soul. and her life,
A form like child she made
She wishes that it's beauty had been more fair
More light in its eyes, more gold in it's hair;
Yet she gave it her all of rich and rare,
And by it's side she prayed.
Prayed that the very spell of her love
Would give it subtle charmsl
She sleeked its tresses till soft they showed.
She KISSED It's lips till to rose they glowed,
And SO, all freshly and daintily robed
She laid it i'll his arms
Wi he stoop above it tenderly,
And take from it one sweet kiss?
Will he hold it a moment closely pressed?
Or cast it away all uncaressedl
Or leave it coldly to die on his breast?
What matter? 1t is his.

Confined Where He Was Born.

A Charlottesville, Ca, correspondent
writes: Alexander Randolph, colored,
who has been committed to jail,
charged with burning the barn and six
horses belonging to John T. Heard,
was born in Jail during the war; his
mother was committed to jail charged
with the crime of murder. He is q
bright mulatto about % years of age.
1t is q singular coincidence that just
after reaching his majority he is now
confined where he was born, and un-
der such grave charge.
