and the rapidity with which It was per
formed did not allow the secret Of it TO
be perceived.
One Of the hcroines Of the play was
presented on the stage in q palanquin
carried by four slaves Gig. y. At q
given moment the curtains were drawn
and then Immediately opened when 1t
was seen that the actress had disap-
peared, and yet the palanquin was well
isolated on the shoulders of tho car
riers, who resumed their Journey and
carried it off the stage.
This trick, which preceded by many
years Dualtier dc Kolta's experiment.
in which also n woman was made to
disappear. but by Nm entirely different
process, was performed as follows:
Tho four uprights arranged at tho
four corners Of the apparatus were hol-
low, and each contained at tho top q
pulley eyer which cord passed These
cords wore attached by ono end to the
double bottom Of the palanquin. and
by the other end 10 n counterpoise con-
cealed In the canopy.
AT tho precise moment ut which the
curtains were drawn. the carriers dis
engaged the countcrpoiscs, which, slid
ing wlthin the upr1ghts, rapidly raised
the double bottom, with tho actress, up
to the interior OF the canopy. The per
son thus made to disappear was quite
slender and took position such as to
occupy as little space as possible. By
making the shadows Of the holdings
OF the canopy and columns moro pro-
nounced through painting, and by eS-
aggcrnting them, the affair was given
an appearance Of lightness that per
picked the most distrustful spectator.
This allusion appeared extraordinary,
md has hardly been surpassed except
by the disappearances effected by pre-
stidigitators. The second trick that we
shall describe Is employed in the Peau
dane. for producing the fairy robes of
the story-color of the sun. color Of the
moon. md color of the sky-required
by the play. In the midst of brilliantly
illuminated procession como two porters
carrying quito large Ghost by its
handles. Having reached the royal

ZONES Fined 500

Justice Howerton held court yester-
day evening at the mayors office TO
hear the case Of Robert Jones, charged
with fcloniously taking and corcealing
a $50 bill lost by J. II. kcs,er at the
Machine Works On Thursday.
Jones was represented by A. J.Oliver.
The case attracted considerable attcn-
ton. Several witnesses were examined,
and the testimony was conclusive that
Jones knew who the money belonged to
and refused to give it up. Mr.. Abemycr
and Il D. Airhcart had to prize open
Jones hand to get the money. Jones
denied knowing the envelope contained
the note. Iio was fined $50 and costs.
Oliver was about to take an appeal, but
it was finally decided to pay the fine.

TX any persons thinks that Roanoke is
not destined to become great manu-
featuring and Industrial center, thew
should take trip through the West End
and over the Roanoke Development
CompanT's tract.
1t looks as though a magic hand
had something to do with the progress
OF work on the land across the river. A
short time ago there vas nothing there
but barren fields, and now the air is
burdened with the music OF tho ham,
mer and the saw.
Roads arc being built, tho grading
for the cleo trio street railroad is being
pushed rapidly ahead and gangs OF men
are blasting and grading for the belt
line. One handsome bridge has been
completed across the river and mon are
at work on the bridge for the electric
railway.
On the site Of the Lock Hard ware
plant everything is hustle and activity.
The foundry, which is one story high,
will be ready for the roof Tuesday or
Wednesday. The stone foundations Of
the main building are completed and it
will not be long before this structure
will be under roof.
There is an immense amount of brick
on the ground and lumber is being re-
ceived daily in car loads. fine we'll
has been sunk on the grounds, which
will supply all the water necessary to
run the works.
The main building OF the Duvall En-
CINE Works, which is located little
above the hardware plant, is under roof
and will be ready for the machinery as
soon as tho belt line is finished. The
building will he cncasod with iron, and
when completed will be one OF the hand
soonest machine shops in the country.
The boiler and foundry buildings are
we'll under way and will be up some
time next week. y side track will be
run from tho belt line TO tho main
building OF the works, and all material
can be loaded and unloaded from and
into the building without rc-handling.
1t is expected that ground will be
broken in short time for the blanket
mills plant, and the Steam Generator
Company will also rect buildings before
long.
Across the river, on this side, is oca-
ted one Of the finest rolling mills in
this part Of the country. This mill has
two large buildings. one of which is
devoted to the rolling process and tho
other to the plate process.
The Plate Mill building is 332xT0 feet.
and all the machinery is in place. This
machinery is of the finest mako and
capable of doing eXcellcn. work 4
largo Hamilton coriss engine with 90
foot fly wheel furnishes the power. Tho
machinery has been run every day for
the past week for the purpose OF testing
different parts Of the machinery, and
everything has been found 10 work
beautifully. The mill will be started
up as soon as the fire bricks for tho eight
furnaces arrive.
The other building, which is 3O4xS4
feet is about completed and ready for
the machinery, some OF which is on the
ground. When both mills arc in full
operation they will employ about 800
people.
