IN THE THEATERS.
Hermann Performs Three Wor.
derful New Tricks.


Hermann performed last evening at
the Metropolitan to rather small au-
dlence, but he gave decidedly the best
entertainment he has ever given in the
city. He performed three new tricks
OF his own invention. either Of which
is worth the price of admission. Z
In the middle of the stage, far from
the back curtains and free from all sur
roundings. was large plate glass mir
ror standing OH legs three feet high. In
front and at the foot of the plate glass
was a glass pedestal. A woman in
evening dress EN- traine reached the
pedestal by small stepladder. The
Stepladder was removed aud Hermann
placed about the woman screen, then
hred revolver and removed the screen.
The woman was not there. The plate
glass mirror was solid, as Hermann
demonstrated, and the audience could
How the woman escaped was a mystery
no one could solve.
The next trick was still more wonder
full. Two cages, representing cage
prison cells. were placed upon the stage
six feet apart and free from all sur
roundings. The cages were made of
perpendicular iron bars, and the audi
ence could see through each one to the
back emil Of the stage. A small man
dressed in prison garb appeared. Herr
mann placed him in one of the cages
then. pulling down the curtains on
all four sides, discharged re-
Y0lver, and, as he did so, opened
the cage door. Out stepped man six
Ieet tall, dressed as prison guard, aud,
as the curtains were thrown up at the
same moment. all could see that the
small man was not there. Without
waiting second Hermann called out
for his prisoner. Here l am" re-
sp0nded voice back at the entrance of
the theater, and the small man in prison
garb came running down an aisle to the
stage. The small man was then placed
IN one OF the cages, the curtains pulled
down III both cages, and revolver
hred. The curtains flew up Immedi-
ately, and the prisoner was in the other
cage, and the cage he had entered was
empty.
The last of the three new tricks was
even more wonderful than the cage
TRICK. A cross bar stood out i'll plain
slght away from any curtains. 1t was
a simple structure Of two upright tim
Ders and cross beam. A woman sat
upon chair resent bling an ordinary
Kitchen chair. Attached to either side
or this was an ordinary rope. She was
drawn up by windiass about twelve
feet above the floor. Hermann fired a
revolver, the ropes broke and the chair
fell to the floor; but the woman was not
In It,, She had vanished. but how no
one In the audience was able to see.
Probably never in the history of the
world have more marvellous tricks been
performed. Hermann deserves crowd
ed houses the remainder of his engage
ment.

Newspapers as Detectives.

OIUUheIUH DHIIY IIutS
Judge Willis. of st. Paul, has ordered
that newspapers print what actually &C.
ours in the court room. and not endeavor
to mould public opinion by expressing
any opinions as to the possible outcome
of the case, or the standing Of any wit
ness called in case. That may be all
right in some places. but in st. Paul the
newspapers seem to have to doa good
deal of detective work, and they GER
tainly should have an opinion, and be
allowed to express it.

IT is probable that when the tariff
bill comes from the hands of the senate
committee Oh finance-if it ever does
it will have little resemblance to the
measure that passed the house. The
thinkers have been industriously at work
upon it. They have pat patch here
and little solder there. have punctured
holes where none existed before. and
apparently done all in their power to
make the job botch. The tariff on
iron ore and coal. abolished bv the
house. has been restored; sugar and
wool have been tempered with, and
score OF other commodities have been
tempered with, The bill as it now
stands is simply tariff measure with
the reform left out. 1t looks as if it
would be far easier matter to throw
the whole bill into the fire and begin
afresh, than to endeaver to patch up a
satisfactory bill from the fragments that
remain. Tariff reform is evidently
dead, for this congress at least.

II is settled point in law that man
shall not be placed in jeopardy twice for
the same otfense. Heretofore this has
been construed as forbidding the trial
of man a second time on the same
charge. A case involving this princi-
pie has come up at Sioux Falls, where
doctor who killed man several years
ago has been indicted by the grand
jury. The case had been consid-
cred by a previous grand jury,
but no indictment had been found.
1t is now claimed that this first failure
to indict constituted bar to subsequent
prosecutions. The question of whether
a grand jury is court within the mean
ing of the law will come up for consid-
Grafton, and upon the decision as to its
character will depend the fate of the
prisoner.
