The door was open and before the bureau
stood a strange man. He was ransack-
ing the bureau drawers and had secured
several hundred dollars worth of Miss
Ethel's property. The man turned from
the bureau and the frightened child hid
herself in the hallway. He walked leis-
urelv from Miss Ethel's room and entered
the room OF another guest. Again the
child got q glimpse Of the man through
the door. and this time the intruder also
saw her. lie asked her what she was run
ming about the hall for and she told him
nothing. Although badly frightened.
she passed the stranger and went down
stairs 70 give the alarm. When some OF
the bOarders went up stairs the stranger
had disappeared. and it was discovered
that he had ransacked several rooms, but
had only taken what Jewelry he found
in Miss Etheis room. When the young
lady returned later in the afternoon and
examined her room she discovered that
not only had the burglar taken her Jew

Among the nameless heroes, none are
more worthy of martyrdom than he who
rode down the valley of the Conemaugh,
warning the people ahead of the Johns

horse, faster and faster went the rider,
but the flood was swiftly gaining, until
it caught the unlucky horseman and
swept on, grinding, crushing, annihila-
ting both weak and strong.
In the same way is disease lurking
near, like unto the sword of Damocles,

victim, who allows his system to be-
come clogged up, and his blood poi

These Illustrations are enough TO show
that the modern magician follows closely
in the footsteps of the ancient exhibitors
of automata, and that in all cases the
effects are due more or less to trickeEy.
No matter how intricate the machinery
used, the secres of their working is very
simple, and the human brain and hand
really produce the effects. Yet, willie
during many years mechanical figures
have amused millions, the secrets of
their construction have been so jealously
guarded that no public explanations of
them have been heretofore made.
Nearly every modern pnestidigitateur
now adds an exhibition of the Hindoo-
stani black art to his programme. They
also use mechanical devices, as well as
appearing and disappearing figures.
These latter illusions are caused simply
by deity removing black coverings fro
the objects that appear SO mysterioualy
in the uncertain light or replacing the m
to cause the disappearance.
Ancient magicians Were credited " it'll

of the black art have made no such
claims, and in view of the simplicity of
many of their tricks it is wonderful that
