THE BOWERY WIZARD.
HIS WfTCHERY MAKES EVEN THE
SKELETONS GRIN.

A Reporter Visits His Den and Sees
Many Curious Things-The Professor
Talks About the People He Has Met
and What They Have Thoughs CT Him.
There is queer little shop in Bowery
basement where half the jugglers and
magicians in the country order their
"props." 1t is presided over by Otto
Maurer, student of occult science, who
has bewildered all sorts of people
throughout the civilized world. You
can never pass the dingy entrance to his
little den that you will not see crowd
reading the signs and examining the
mysterious wares in his showcase. If
you go down the narrow stairway you
will see no one within, but if you wait q
few moments a curtain will be drawn,
giving you a momentary glimpse of a
dimly lighted room beneath the side
walk, and the magician will appear be-
fore your eyes.
He may not seem particularly overJoy-
ed to meet you, for his habitation is full
of dark secrets, and his black art inter
ests him much more than intercourse
with his fellow men. What there is in
the dark little chamber behind the cur
tain no one besides himself can tell He
guards its secrets as he does his life.
There it is that he conceives the magic
devices which line the walls without.
The Bowery magician's den was in
vaded by reporter recently. There was
apparently not soul there. The report
er looked around. There was picture
on the wall. He turned suddenly and
was startled to find the original of the
picture face to face before him. He had
not entered by the staircase, and there
was evidently no other means of ingress.
The dark curtain in the dark little cor
ner only explained the mystery when it
was later pointed out by Professor Maui
rer.
The magician did not have on his per-
forming costume. He was in his shirt
sleeves and wore old trousers. His hands
We're black and grimy, as though he had
been working at a forge.
Professor Maurer began to tell of the
various countries he had visited. There
was plate of eggs before him. As he
talked he picked up wand and absent
mindedly balanced one of the eggs on its
tip. The more he talked the more eggs
he balanced, one on top of the other,
with the bottom egg still on the wand.
In some unaccountable manner all the
eggs but one suddenly disappeared. The
wand was hardly bigger around than

He Got the Lower Berth.

The smallest man in the state is not
Superintendent Thomas Jefferson Carl
ton. AL reports to the contrary, he Is
one Of the heaviest men in the west. His
weight is not altogether in his diameter
either. He is big up, big in brain and
heart and every way. When he has
sport it is colossal. One night he board
ed sleeper to start for the Baltimore
conference of charities. All tho lower
berths were taken. There was one up
per berth, and Col. Carlton engaged it.
He had the conductor point out to him
the possessor of the ticket of the lower
berth, same section. He was slim, dud-
ish young man.
"My friend,' said the big man, ap-
preaching the youth, II am glad to be-
come acquainted with you before bed
time Are you Christian?
"Well-er-I don't know. Why?
"The last man that slept under me was
not, and l always felt some measure of
remorse."
"WhyT'
81 ought to have told him that l
weighed three hundred apd fifteen
pounds. However, he carried accident
insurance. l hope, by the way, that you
carry large policy in good company.
These upper berths are not insured.
Still, it is only about three foot drop.
What word shall send to your friends?'
"Are you-can't | induce you to ex-
change berths with me? Really, never
could sleep in these close lower berths. "
The dicker was made, and the hefty su-
perintendent peacefully slept in the
lower story while the slim young man
made scarcely an impression on the
berth above.-Indianapolis News.
