PINkED THE TEN SPOT.
A Trick aa Cards That Pushed Those
Who Witnesaed II.

~ saw man do trick with cards
(which. although he assured me was
wholly a trick and that there was no
second sight or mind reading connect
ed with 1t, has always rested in an
unexplained condition In my mind.
"There were four of us at supper,
ind the man In question sent for n
pack of cards. and, handing them to
the man next him, told him to select n
card in his mind; not to take 1t from
the pack. but to tell the other two
men what card 1t was. He was then to
shuttle the pack and pass 1t to the
other two men, who were each to
thoroughly shuttle 1t. The last man
was then to place it on the floor.
"In the meantime a large napkin
had been lightly bound over the magi-
clans eyes and his dress coat hung over
his face with the tails tied under his
chin, so that his head was to all in
tents ana purposes In bag. He. by
his direction, was led to the pack of
cards and his hand placed upon it. He
then proceeded to scatter the cards
about until they covered rough cir
Gle of three or four feet in diameter.
He called for q knife, and. bringing 1t
sharply down, drove it through aud
affixed one of the scattered cards. Re-
moving his headgear, he asked what
card my friend had chosen. The an
swer being the ten of diamonds, he
turned the knife toward us, and there,
sure enough, was the ten Of diamonds
transfxed upon the point.
HE swore it was a trick. but for
the life Of me cannot see how it was
done. None Of us was In collusion with
him. ! am sure the cards were not a
fake pack, and l am equally certain
that he was SO blindfolded that 1t was
wholly impossible for him to see. Yet
he accomplished 1t exactly as l tell
you."-New York Tribune.

Deception In Art.

Ever since the days of Zeuxis and
Apelles. when Bucephaus neighed at
the sight of the painted Alexander and
birds pecked at painted grapes, there
have been occasional, reversions TO the
horse bird theory of what constitutes
art. 1t is not for effect on horses and
birds, however, but for effect on the hui
man consumer. that rabbits and squirrels
are painted hanging on dingy old shutters
with such realism that iron railings have
to intervene to keep the victims Of the de-
ception from feeling the fur. Such pic
lures command good prices at the hands
of gentlemen OF sporting proclivities who
desire to decorate their dining rooms.
1t may be that they help to prove our
Darwinian Gscent from cells of Ar
chman time by way of the ancestral birds
with teeth aad horses with five toes. but
they irresistibly recall the new rich poll
tician who built himself fne house,
with a Library in it containing several
thousand wooden book backs safely lock-
ed up behind glass doors to which the
keys were always absent. 1t does not
require high srt merely to deceive'-Nsw

years ago. At that time the Maoris were
ferocious athletes. Alcohol was un-
known to them. Their staple foods
were kind of sweet potato, the bulbous
root Of kind of lily and fish and birds.
They did not use tobacco. As result of
this abstinence, they were blessed with
fine white teeth, keen eyesight and per-
feet immunity from cancer and blood dis
eases. Cuts and wounds healed with re-
markable rapidity. They were good fa-
thers and mothers, attentive, indeed al
most overindulgent to their children.
though by an odd contrast they seldom
hesitated to kill a weakly or defcrmed
child at birth. The chief scourge Of the
Maoris was consumption, which was not
brought upon them, however. by any
careless or barbarous habit. The Maori5
in New Zealand were tropical race who
migrated into temperate zone. They
naturally shrank from cold and suffered
from coughs, rheumatism and influenza
and from ailments Of the throat and
lungs.
At last the white man came. bring
ius with him the manifold curses OF
civilization. The musket turned the tribal
wars into butcheries and swept away a
fourth of the race in 20 years. Rum did
some mischief, though not 80 much as
among other savage races. More dele
terious was incessant tobacco smoking,
Various infectious diseases went through
the tribe European dress, worn in full
one day and half laid aside the next,
was another evil against a people al
ready subject to consumption. When
the British rule brought, after success
sion of disastrous wars, lasting peace,
even that had its disadvantages. 1t de-
prived the tribes of their main business
and excitement and of the stimulus to
keep in hard training. In the old fight
ing days the villages were placed on
hilltops or at the edges Of tall cliffs In
the healthiest spots In the Islands. They
have since been too often shifted to low
lying, iii drained levels by rivers, lagoons
or marshes. Worst of all Is the semi
idleness in which the Maori too often
passes the year. He has grown fat,
ruggish and unambitious-too intelligent
not to see that his race needs rousing
and reforming, but too lazy, torpid and
dispirited to begin the work.
There are men still living who took
part in the terrible war dance of the
eyewitnesses unite in describing Its ef-
feet as terrific. Hard headed pioneers
and travellers, untroubled by nerves, ad-
nit the impression OF horror left upon
them by the sight. Painted with red
ocher stripped to the skin. the tattooed
warriors roared, groaned, writhed and
brandished their weapons. At one mo-
ment all leaped in the air, at another
they stamped the earth till it shook be-
meath them. Their tongues were pro-
truded,. their faces worked convulsively,
their eyeballs rolled till only the glar g
white could be seen. Dripping with
sweat, they seemed very demons in their
frenzied contortions and excitement.
