The Hood River glacier. (Hood River, Or.) 1889-1933, 1892-08-13

Soliman ben Aissa an East Indian fakir,
has set the Viennese physicians to talk
ing. He performs remarkable tricks, or
whatever they may be called, and his en-
tertainments created so much excitement
that the authorities have refused to permit
him to exhibit in public. One of SolimSn's
favorite tests is to inhale the smoke from
powder prepared from extracts of snake
and scorpion poisons Then he shakes his
head violently and foams at the mouth.
While this is going on large stiletto Is
thrust through his tongue, and his body is
used as pincushion by his assistant.
Soliman also pulls his eyebalis forward
and holds them outside the sockets be-
tween his fingers. A blazing torch Is held
against his arm and he never finehes.
Chewing glass is diversion which Soil
man now considers it beneath his ''profes
sional" dignity to perform

A journalist told me that he once over
heard this passage of arms between a
coachman and beggar man outside the
Four Courts, Dublin. AS the beggar was
whining for aims at the carriage door the
coachman turned around to cry sharply to
him, "Come, my man, take your rags out
Of thatw The beggar with whitening
glance at the coachman's livery, retorted:

The Ballots Counted Yesterday in
the Advertiser Office by Rep
rgSentatiVeS from the Diff
ferent Base Ball
MINIS.
LIST OF THE PRIZES TO
BE GIVEN.

The ADVERTISER contest to de-
termine the best all around player
in the Hawaiian Base Ball League
is bound to be big success.
The ballot box was opened yes
terday afternoon for the first time
before representatives of the differ
ent base ball mines and the count
was supervised by them. Seventy
nine ballots were cast during the
past week, and when one considers
that most people did not quite
understand the idea, the first count
makes a good showing and proves
that interest is alive regarding this
novel contest. A large number of
people were present yesterday at
this Office and as the ballots were
called off there was nearly as much
noise as one could hear on a gen.
eral election night. People looked in
through the windows and all seemed
interested in the first count. The
seyenty-nine ballots were divided
between twenty-one players, as the
count beloI will show. Mahuka
and Davis, of the Kamehamehas,
each received fourteen votes, and
are tie for first place. J. o. Car
ter, Jr., and Chan Wilder, of the
Honolulus, lead for second place.
The next count is liable to change
this programme, and perhaps a
clark horse" may lead the race.
A number of people have been
skeptieal regarding the prizes to
be offered by the ADVERTISER for
the final result of this contest.
Some thought the first prize would
be the watering cart, another ina
gined that bundle of old Bulle-
tins would be presented to the
lucky ones, while some surmised
that a bunch of meal tickets would
be the first prize.
Appended can be found the
three prizes offered for first, second
and third places by the ADvER-
TIsER. The first is a round trip
ticket to the Volcano including
board at the Volcano House. This
ticket is good until the 31st day of
December. 1t is only fair to add
that the Wilder Steamship Co. has
kindly donated the steamer fare
for this interesting trip. The Sec
ond prize is a cash one and will be
$25 in good hard gold coin of the
United States. The third prize
will be either a years subscription
to the ADVERTISER or the HA-
wAIIAN GAZETTE, the winner takes
his choice.
The ballot appears again this
morning and all base ball admirers
including the fair ones should cut
it out, write the name of the player
they think is best and then send
their vote to this Office.
