POWELL, THE MAGICIAN.

What Philadelphia papers say of his appearance at the Grand opera house in that city:
 Powell proved himself an estimable rival of other illusionists, known in Philadelphia. His performance was varied and unique in many things, and seemed to reach the limit of illusIve spectacle. "-Press. November 1, 1892.
 Powell, fresh from hIs triumphs at the Eden Musee, New York. appeared at the Grand last night. His fame had preceded him, and he held the large au- dience spellbound. His series of psy- chological experiments. in which he was assisted by Mile Vera, were wonderful and seemingly impossible. Powelrs hit last night was an emphatic one. ne."-Inquirer, November 1, 1892.
 Powell is a master of his art, and his marvellous transformations are so skill fully executed as to make the impossible appear real. The audience was large and very enthusiastic. Times November 1, 1892.
 "Powell's entertainment last evening was in the nature of a revelation. He stands peculiarly and preemlnently alone in his particular line, and presents some of the most startling manifesto tions possible to human ingenuity. Ht has been heralded as the King of Con. luTeES bN lue IbICSS anu publlC' anu I' one can dispute the iustness of the title. s-Evening Item.
 "It shows what a strong attraction there is in manifestations of the dex trous and mysterious that such a thronged gathering was present last evening, when Prof. Powell, assisted by Mile. Vera, gave his initial performance in a manner that at once stamped him
 as ranking the foremost in his profes- sion. There is comparative absence in his bill of the time-mouldy feats that have done duty for ages, of necroman cers, and plenteous presence of others fresh, ingenious, striking and well done. The professors round of conjur- ing ability is wide every way and em

Restrictive Effect of LeRlslatiOn on the
 Sale of OIeomArEArine.
 The laws passed at the last session oi the general assembly regarding the manufacture and sale of oleomargarine in Connecticut have largely diminished the sale of the article in the state, judg. ing from the number of licenses issued as compared with last year.
