Mathematical Magic Made Essy

You never can tell what figures will
10. OF course they are truthful IL prop
.rly handled, but some Of them are ca.
oable Of the most bewildering antics
Here is a method by which figures may
ce made to tell secrets In a way that
will astonish those who are not inform
ed about how to do the ''figurinSs"
Ask some person to put down un-
known to you a number composed Of
three figures (say 1922. Tell him to
transpose the figures (making 267) and
to subtract the lesser from the greater.
Then ask him to tell you the first figure
Of the result, and you can tell him the
entire number. For instance, your first
number In the present example is 7622,
which transposed makes 267. Subtract
tract 267 from 762 and you have 495.
The only figure that you are told is
4, the first Of the result. All you have
to do is to subtract from 8, which will
give you 5, the last figure, and the cen
tral figure is always 8. So your num-
ber will be 495. This Is true in all cases
where only three figures are used in
making up a number. The central fig
ure will always be 8 when the trans
posed number is subtracted from the
original number. and the two end fig
ures when added together will make o.
So, knowing either the first or last fig
ure Of the result, you can give the en-
tire number.

 Parker is a candidate for the official journal of the church. That he is confident for the position, no one doubts. He has the endorsement of a number of the south ern conferences, but will meet with oppo- sition from northern delegates on account of his utilization with democrats in Ala bama; but his friends claim that politics should cut no figure in church affairs, and are working earnestly for Parker's cleo ton.

STAGNATION IN
 IRON AND STEEL Result of American Steel & Wire Companys Cut. SITUATION MOST CRITICAL More Conservative Firms Believe That the Demand is Too Great for
 Reduction in Price at
 This Time
SITUATION MOST CRITICAL

Pittsburg, Pa, April 23-Stagnation of trade in iron and steel circles was notice able today as result of the cut of the American Steel and Wire company, but the principal manufacturers declared that the prices would be held back for week or two. Almost every manufacturer admits that the past few days have been the most critical in the iron and steel business for more than two years. B. F. Jones, Jr., treasurer of Jones & Laughlin's, limited, one of the most conservative iron firms in the country, thought the iron and steel market generally would not be affected; that pig iron would not be reduced in price and that the present prices would continue for some time. The demand for iron and steel of all kinds was too strong to give any indication of weakening just now, and the manufacturers were not in the least frightened at the remarkable actions of the past week. MT. Jones was sanguine that 1t would only require few days for the market to steady itself, and leave every thing adjourned and in a highly prosper condition.
 Other conservative steel manufacturers held the same opinion

HE LEAPED INTO A
 COKE OVEN ID DIE
Horrible SeIf-destruction of an Unknown White Man at
 ConneIIsviIIe, Pa.

Connellsville, Penn, April 23.-Leaping high into the air as an expert diver would do in taking a fancy plunge into the wa ter, an unknown man committed suicide this morning at the foundry works of the H. c. Prick Coke company by diving into a coke oven. In less than a minute what
 had been a man, apparently in the full wig
 or of life, had mingled with the curling
 smoke of the oven, distinguishable only by
 it's brown color and nauseating odor from
 the gas smoke of the burning coal.
 A more tragic death never occurred in this region. The coke workers saw him only for an instant, as he prepared for the leap. He was well dressed, of medium height and weight and smooth shaven. For the slight est possible space of time he seemed to pause on the sloping ground behind the ovens, then quick as a flash he ran down
 the slope, taking the quick short steps of a trained athlete who gauges them pre-
 cisely for the jump he intends taking.
 Eight feet from the oven tops the man shot into the air, his hands poised above his head in the fashion of diver, and de- scending swiftly, dropped head first into the tunnel-head of an oven that had burn ed to the sizzling white heat of coke just before it is drawn. For an instant the body cogged the trunnel-head and the 1 legs wriggled though a desperate effort l was being made to squirm through and meet death quickly in the blazing oven pit A rush was made for the oven pit by | the mortified oven drawers All there was to show of the man who but few seconds ! before had been in life, was a charred mass of flesh not three feet in length, There is nothing about it that could serve
 means of identification.
