how He Found It Depleted When BE

Fairmont Indez

FlirmoHt lader.
Governor Fleming has been wearing
better clothes lately than he usually
does, aud some OF his friends have been
commenting upon the fact. While the
Governor Is always we'll dressed, Yet be
is never In any sense a dude. Upon In
curry we End that the change in his
garments is not from choice, but is from
an absolute necessity. Not long since
lust after the Governor had started Oh
q campaigning tour, the door bell OF his
residence rang, and upon IL being an
swered a poorly dressed stranger was
found standing upon the front
porch. He handed 10 note ad-
dressed 20 Mrs Fleming, ia which be
stated that be was a tramp; that he
had seen better days; thai al the time
of the gu0ernatoriai contest he occupied
a prominent political position in this
State, and was a great friend OF the
Governor. He also stated that be had
Just seen the Governor al the depot be-
fore his departure, and the Governor
told him 20 90 10 his house, ana that
Mrs. Fleming would give him any Of
the clothes OF the Governor that would

the door, and she had the fellow TO take
a seat add wait while she hunted
through the Governors wardrobe. Soon
she returned, and she loaded the fellow
down with every garment that would ht

At the discharge OF pistol an immense
flame bursts forth from the cylinder,
and 10 appears as though everything in
side Of 10 was being consumed.
The screen is then raised, the young
woman has disappeared and on the
table there rests a quantity OF black
ened bones, still smoking, aud sur
mounted bv a skull The effect is
seemingly startling and most realistic.
AS the screen has only two openings,
az top aud bottom, there is no apparent
way Of the woman escaping under the
table, and 10 is, or has been, an interest
ing question as 20 how she gets away.
A SIMPLE EXPLANATION.
The explanation is very simple. An
nlcove lis formed by a screen having
three sides; in the center Of the space
thus made the table with its four feet,
and beneath it the lights on four
branches representing a canvass, is
sood. % the table is placed the
v1unR woman " hO each evening is
burned in the presence Of the audience,
AID who is gradually lost 20 their sight
by the cylindrical screen that is lowered
with great impressment until It finally
co1ceals her altogether
Che success Of the trick rests upon
ths much used combination OF mirrors.
Thu table has only two legs; the candles
are only two in number Beneath
the table are placed two mirrors,
Joined at an angle OF ninety degrees.
which gives a false impression OF four
legs 10 the table aud four branches TO
the light. As each Of these mirrors in
cline At an angle Of forty five degrees
With the sides OF the screen, they are
reflected Ia them in such a way as TO
appear to be the rear portion OF the
screen only.
THE MIRRORS HIDE HER.
or course, with the two mirrors COM
ing together as they do, aud afOrding
thus protection from the audience, the
rest is easily provided for. The rear
portion Of the table slides away, leaving
ample space for the Young woman 20
sink through 10 and touch the floor be-
hind the mirrors. Putting one foot
down 20 the ground, she then quickly
draws down her body aud stoops be-
meath the sheltering mirrors, stopping
lust long enough 10 place the bones and
skull on the sliding part Of the table
and restore 10 20 its former position.
Then she creeps back under the rear OF
the SCREEN, goes under the stage out 70
the froht entrance, and when the cyild-
der is raised from the table, displaying
the bohes, she walks down the middle
aisle SAFE and sound.

LONDON, November An interest

of the destruction OF young woman by
