TRICKS OF ORIENTAL JUGGLERY.
Performances That Can BE Explain

The most wonderful Of the Oriental
fakir's tricks. and the one which to this
day is the most completely shrouded in
mystery. is first mentioned by an Arab
traveller. who visited China in the four
tenth century While entertained at a
banquet by a viceroy near Shanghai he
witnessed the trick. The juggler took
wooden ball. in which there were holes.
from which streamed long thongs. He
threw the ball up In the air out Of sight,
and then commanded his assistant boy
TO climb up. The boy climbed up the
thongs and disappeared. The conjurer
called him three times, and, getting no
answer. ascended with a knife. Present

legs. his head, and finally the bleeding
trunk. The juggler then came down

then a lion. tiger, and panther follow
suit. One traveller in the seventeenth
century tells OF seeing II, and he adds
he no longer doubted that these mis-
guided jugglers did it by the help Of the
devil.
Two sceptical travellers, hearing OF
these tricks. made an arrangement
whereby one was TO make pencil sketches
Of what he saw. and the other was to
photograph what he saw. The fakir
threw a very long rope up into the air.
and sent his son up after peaches. The
boy climbed and climbed. and finally dis

THE COMPLETED TICKET.

The platform Of the bogus national con-
ventlon was well worded. 1t declares
for civil-service reform. a tariff for reve-
nue. only. against protection, and for con-
tinuing TO pension old soldiers. 1t de-
clares for international arbitration.
The reference TO the Supreme Court OF
the United States is unworthy Of the
rest Of the platform. It charges by i'm
plication that Mr. Bryan has made
charges against that august tribunal
which he ought not 10 have made. and
which he has never made. unless our
memory fails us.
The complexion OF the entire situation
as it stands to-day betokens the election
of Bryan. Never before in the history
Of the country has there been such an
uprising Of the people. The bogus can
didates and bogus platforms will disap-
pear. They will all be in zone red burial

OPEN AND SECRET FOES.

commenting upon the criticisms Of the
State press upon Hon. Basil Gordon's

meant for this campaign only; but, adds
the Free Lance. I'VE think he Will ulti-
mately land In the Republican party"
Our contemporary says further that it
thinks this viii also be the ultimate fate
OF all the gold Democrats, "as the third
ticket IS only a halfway house or rest
ing-place on the road 10 the Republican
army"
We think Mr.. Gordon's letter has al
ready landed him In the Republican party.
In announcing that he would vote for
Mckinley he boldly cut away the bridge
that connected him with Democracy. But
as much as his detection is to be re-
GREETED. his course IL infinitely more 20
be commended than that Of the halfway
house Democrats. Better a foe that fires
upon you from the open than an alleged
ally that IS engaged In bushwhacking you
