instruction and entertainment Apart from the
splendid vocal and instrumental concerts I
find here only three forms of "amusement"-the
Coney Island water chute, the miniature rail-
way and a so-called Indian Theatre. In the last
named place half dozen dark skinned gentle
men from Bombay. thereabout. disport them
selves for thirty or forty minutes every hour
for modest fee of sixpence. In the most en-
thusiastic way they perform those sleight of
hand tricks which used to please New-York
boys twenty-five years ago, such transferring
a ring coin from one person TO another. and.
instead of creating a riot at least demand
ing their money back. the spectators trudge out
with the mien of persons who are surprised at
the wonderful character of the tricks played
and amazed at not having been charged more.

There was, of course. a guarantee fund pro-

was the citizens of Glasgow who put out OF
question the possibility of any loss on the ex-
hibition- About ninety thousand of them bought

for erecting the buildings, that almost at the
start the project out of debt. Now IL Is
making money by the barrel. The average at

the net profit will not fall short of 100000. and
