PlNkED THE TEN SPOT.
Trick at Cards That Puzzled Those
who Witnessed 1t.

81 saw u man do a trick with cards
once" said Godfrey Ashton Of Atlanta
(which, although he assured me was
wholly a trick and that there was no
second sight or mind reading connect
ed with II, has always rested in an
unexplained condition in my mind.
'-rhere were four of us at supper,
and the man in question sent for a
pack Of cards. and. handing them to
the man next him, told him to select n
card In his mind; not to take it from
the pack, but to tell the other two
men what card it was. He was then to
shuttle the pack and pass 1t to the
other two men, who were each to
thoroughly shuttle it. The last man
was then to place 1t on the floor.
'In the meantime a large napkin
had been tightly 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 and purposes in n 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 a rough cir
Gle of three or four feet In diameter.
He called for knife, and, bringing 1t
sharply down, drove 1t through and
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
transfiXed upon the point.
"He swore 1t was trick, but for
the life of me l cannot see how it was
| done. None of us was In collusion with
| him. l am sure the cards We're not q
fake pack, and l am equally certain
that he was so blindfolded that 1t was
wholly impossible for him to see. Yet
he accomplished it exactly as l tel
you."-New York Tribune.

honor Of being one of the standard
bearers on the state ticket is one not to
BE- lightly turned aside, but he is forced
to do so, partly because 1t would compel
him to neglect his personal affairs, and
partly because he is not in a financial
condition to bear the cost Of making
such campaign rs the candidate should
do who expects to win. Moreover, the
Nebraska Workman, the official organ
of the A. o. u. w. of the state, has been
placed in his charge, and he does not
see how no could conscientiously fulfill
his duty to this greatest of fraternal
beneficiary orders should he devote time
to political campaign which rightfully
belongs to that organization, and he be-
lieves that he is doing more to serve
mankind in his present position than he
could possibly accomplish if he were to
be elected auditor of state. Again If he
were to he absent from his desk during
long campaign he would necessarily
have to neglect THE News, which he
proposes to make factor in helping to
place Nebraska in the republican column
this fall.
While he is keenly appreciative of the
generous sentiments that have been ex.
pressed toward him by his brothers Of
the press, still he must insist that he is
not candidate, and his name will not
come before the convention with his
consent. He is glad at all times to help
those of his friends who want public po.
sitions, and will do all he can for the
man who is nominated for state auditor
by the republicans. but for himself all
he asks of the public is that share Of
legitimate business which will enable
him to continue to maintain his news.

The New York Sun, replying to an
inquiry as to the origin of the name Of
Tommy Atkins as applied to an Eng
lish private soldier, says that some
years ago the British war office prepar-
ed a series of blank forms to be filled
out which dealt with the various en-
listed men of the army. In the sample
form where the soldiers names ap'
peared alphabetically the first soldier
was Atkins. Thomas. From this the
name as applied to soldier became
common in the army, and Punch took
it up and made it common to the Brit
ish pubic. This explanation would
seem to relieve Mr.. Kipling of all re
sponsibility in the matter.
