ROLTAiR'S ILLUSIONS.

Prof. Roltair's illusion show in
the large striped tent erected on the
proposed lot for the Central House
of the Fire Department, east corner
OF Beretania and Fort streets, open
ed with a crowded house yesterday
evening-so crowded that doors had
to be closed against late corners to
avoid crush and possible suffocation.
There were no seats provided for the
accommodation of spectators, so they
all had to stand-ladies not excepted
and move with the mass in circle
to enable one to "take in The sever
al illusions, which We're native boys
and girls made to appear as living
statues, human spider, a mermaid
and several others, which all won the
admiration of spectators. The spider
was boys head placed in the center
of the web as if it were suspended in
the air with his body out of sight.
The mermaid was the bust of a
girl made to appear as if it were
lying on table of about one by two,
with fish-tail imitation attached.
Either the table or the tail was too
small for the girls natural size.
The Professor explained that the
illusions were caused by mirrors
placed at certain positions in their
several apartments, thus hiding the
lower parts of the objects, making
their heads appear on the table or in
vase or font without bodies.

for the prosecution that the assur-
ance of the defendant that at the end
of three years the laborers would be
free, and his silence in regard to the
present immigration laws restricting
Chinese immigrants TO residence
here only so far as. they perform
agricultural labor under contract,
amounted to a false pretense under
the statute. 1t is not clear what is
meant by the remark that the labor
ers would be free at the end of three
years; it may have meant merely
that they would then be free from
their contracts. 1t does not seem
to me that mere silence in regard to
the restrictive conditions of the laws
here would amount to a false pre-
tense, especially, as Mr.. Marsden
testifes, our laws on this subject are
well understood in Hongkong.
On this question there is not sufIi-
cient evidence to make it probable
that "A jury would find that the de-
PENDANT had used false pretences in
procuring the execution of the con-
tracts.
As this conclusion disposes of the
case | need not enlarge upon the
other questions of fact and law in
vol, ed.
The defendant is discharged.
A. s. Hartwell for prosecution; F..
Nj. Hatch for defense.

ACROBATICS EXTRAORDINARY.

The Silbon Company gave their
initial performance at the Opera
House yesterday evening, before a
small but appreciative house. Their
frst-class reputation and the good
impression they left behind them on
former visit were a guarantee of a
good performance, and crowded
house should have greeted them.
Several wonderful feats of strength
were displayed by the troupe during
the evenings performance. The
comic pantomime by the full COM
pany opened the ball and elected APP
plause and merriment. The parlor
exercises on the rings by the Silbon
family displayed considerable nerve
and strength in the different acroba-
tic evolutions.
Thomas Herbert made ones brow
sweat to see him, balancing on a
trapeze in midair. His performance
was something wonderful and re-
ceived thunderous ovation from the
audience. This gentleman appeared
later in the act, ''the world upside
down." balancing table and barrel
on his feet la japanese. w. Wib-
bley showed some wonderful juggling
tricks. The Dale Brothers sustained
their previous reputation for conf
calities and funniosities. Their hat
throwing was greeted with applause.
The four Silbons closed the evenings
performance with "the greatest aerial
act in the world" The flight through
the air was made from trapeze sus-
pended above the gallery by one of
the Silbons, who turned a double
somersault before catching the hands
of another suspended head down
above the rear of the stage. His act
was greeted with thunders of APP
plause. The troupe will give a matt
nee on Saturday, and in the evening
another performance.
