The Hindoo Magician.

Keller, the prestidigitateur, speaking
of the famous Hindoo magicians to re-
porter of The Buffalo Express, said: "a
trick which puzzled me for long time
was making pineapple grow under a
handkerchief The juggler lays hand
kerchief fat on the ground, and then be-
gins to sing and beat on the tom-tom,
when in the center of the handkerchief
something begins to stir and rise in pyra-
midal form, dilating until just about the
size Of pineapple, when the conjureI
inserts his hand under the handkerchief
and pulls out L ripe pineapple.
81 watched his trick several times be-
fore I could get clew to it. The motion
of life puzzled me. But one day ! took
a position on the side-the conjurers sit
on one side of circle, making the spec
tators form the rest Of the circumfer-
ence-where I could see the juggler's
motion more clearly, and I noticed that
one of the confederates put bag, Ike a
sailors bag, near the conjlrer's hands.
He sat there tailor fashion, and as be
spread out his handkerchief on the
ground | saw his hand make trip swift
as lightning to the bag and back under
the handkerchief, and. / thought saw
something like the tail Of snake ac-
company it. That gave me an idea, and
afterward, by pretending to understand
the trick, and by paving one of the Hin
docs four rupees, got him to confess
how the trick was done.
''The conjurer does take snake from
the bag placed conveniently at his elbow.
When the cobra is put under the hand
kerchief, he naturally coils himself up.
Then the conjurers begin their music
and the cobra raises his head, and this
gives the lifting motion to the handker.
chief. One of the first things cobra
does when excited is to swell out his
neck and this, makes, the pyran,idal
shape. When the juggler puts his hand
under the handkerchief he takes with ii
followed pineapple and removes the
cobra inside Of it, concealed BY lis hand.
That is one Of the cleverest tricks l saw
in India"

Pclts in g Legal Tender.

From 177l to 1854 the territory now
known as Tennessee formed part Of
North Carolina, and in l7S5 tie Ten
nesseans, becoming dissatisfied with their
government, organized state govern
ment under the name of Franklin y
which was maintained for some years.
The state afterwards disbanded and ter
.itorial Tennessee was again annexed to
North Carolina. The following are
among the laws passed by the legislature
of the state Of Franklin. We copy it as
found in speech by Daniel Webster on
the currency of 1888:
Be it enacted by the general assembly
of the state of Franklin, and it is hereby
enacted by the authority of the sane,
that from the 1st day of January, 1850,
the salaries of the officers of the COM
monwealth be as follows:
His exccllcncy the governor, per an
mum, 1000 deer skins.
His honor, the chief justice, per an
mum, 500 deer skins.
The secretary to his excellency, the
governor, per annum, 40O racccon skins.
The treasurer to the state, 450 raccoon
skins.
Each county clerk, 800 beaver skins.
Clerk of house of commons, 200 rae
coon skins.
Members of the assembly, per diem,

4 String Tied to It.

The son of 4 real estate dealer of St.
Paul was married a short time ago. The
real estate man owns some properly !Ilf!I.
self, aud, like some other well fixed
citizens. he has his pecuIiarities. The
marriage occurred in the east at the
home Of the lovely bride, and the event
WIS celebrated there with appropriate
rcioicings and the giving of presents to
the young couple. Among the presents
was very valuable one from the bride
groom's fond parent, being nothing less
tl:an deed, duly signed, and wit
messed according to law, trans
fcrrii,s to them several pieces
OF gilt edged real estate. This was
displayed to the wedding guests among
tie other presents, ranged along the top
oi the piano in the rarlor. When the
happy Young man returned home with
hi; bride his generous father had him re-
t:r1, the deeds to him and tore them up.

were intended to perform, of iupressiilg

The EYea.

When the eyes arc tt:ated fairly, they
are strengthened, net weakened, by
work, says an article il a London jour-
nal. Just as the arms Of blacksmith
grow the stronger for bis trade, so the
eyes of watchmakers, who work under
healthy conditions, are found to i'm
prove, and not deteriorate, in visor and
quickness. 1t is the abuse of the eyes,
not their use, which is to be avoided.
If man is aware either that his eyes
need no artificial correction, or else have
received the proper adjustment, and If
his work, whether literary or mechan-
ical, is done in light both steady and
sufficient, and with due regard as to
ordinary sanitary rules, he may feel sure
that he is strengthening his eyes, not
weakening them, by hard work. Men
of intellectual pursuits sometimes are
afraid OF losing their mental power In
old age, because they have drawn SO
much upon it when young. The reverse
is nearer the truth, and if they have
not overtaxed their brains, the fear Is
absolutely Sro!mdless. The man whose
intellect goes first i'll old age is generally
some farmer or laborer, who has never
strengthened ard invigorated it by use
not the politician, the lawyer, or the man
of letters. SO with the -. These vito
have strengthened their eyes by using
them properly keep Eeen sight longer
than those who have never trained them.
In the case OF the man who has neglected
to give his eyes their full development,
they will fail in power along with his
other bodily functions. When, how
ever, the man who, born with good eyes,
has kept them il constant hard work,
and yet never strained them, reaches old
age he may find them capable Of per-
forming their functions better than any
other organ Of his body. In short, if
people will only learn to use their eyes
wisely, there is no reason why mankind
should not increase rather than lose their
power of seeing. If, however, we areto
make this possible, we must lose no time
in saving the eyes Of the present genera
tion.-Boston Herald.

Presidents Names.

It is singular coincidence that there
is only one exception to the rule that
candidates for president whose names
end in N are elected. Tilden is the only
exception. There have been surprising
number of presidents with the n on the
termination Of their Washing
ton, jefferson. Madison, jackson, Van
Buren,, Harrison, Buchanan, Lincoln and
Harrison. The Republicans had double
chance, because both of their candidates
names end with n. while the Democratic
candidate for vice president, Thurman
could not overcome such heavy odds.
The presidents elected without an N at
the termination of their names were not
pitted against the unconQuelableN. The
president-elect, according to superstitious
traditions, was lucky to have only one
given name. This recalls the fact that
fifteen Of our presidents, and Harrison
will make the sixteenth, have had only
one given name.-Cincinnati Enquirer.
