NORTH AND WILLIAMS.
Smoot-Kearns Senatorial Slate in
Salt Lake County.

Jacob Moritz. manager of the Salt
Lake brewery. and w. n. Williams. a
Kearns member Of the last house, will
in all probability be the Republican
nominees for the state senate in this
county.
Until last evening IL was believed that
j. p. Cahoon of Murray would be Sc
lected as Moritz's running mate, but
the impression is now general that Will
liams has been slated by the two big
bosses for the place.
Orson Hewlett. who has been making
a valiant soda water and cigar cam
paign for the senatorial nomination. is
regarded as defeated beyond hope.
1t was stated yesterday also that
Heber Smith of Draper. Bishop McRae
OF Granger and Bishop Mcmillan OF
salt Lake have been agreed upon by
Apostle Reed SmOot as acceptable TO
him as nominees for the lower branch
OF the legislature. That means that
they will be nominated.

SECRETS OF THE coNJuRER.
Showing How the Eye and the Brain
Are Deceived.
(New York World)


New York World)
A behind the-scenes view of the IA
nous illusions with which conjurers
have mystifed and delighted genera
| ton after generation has peculiar fas-
cinations. There are few Of US who
value our own childish illusions so
highly that we viii not part with them
| for the fun of seeing how We have been
/ fooled
Here are explanations of some of the
/ best known tricks:
The box trick is as clever, as well
known and as old as any. A heavy
! brass bound chest is exhibited An
assistant is placed in a large canvas
bag. the mouth of which is securely
fastened and the bag is placed in the
chest. which is locked and roped.
The box is concealed for few sec
onds and when it is revealed the &C
| cupant is sitting upon it. the closed
and sealed bag beside him. The cords
and seals on the box are intact.
This astonishing feat is accomplished
thus: The occupant Of the bag has in
serted a wooden plug in the mouth
while the tying is being done. When
the chest is locked he pulls il out, slips
ont his hand, pulls off the cords, gets
out and replaces the cords over the
top of the sack
BY the time the chest is roped he Is
free. The chest has secret opening,
usually at the end. and while il is hid
den he crawls out. A slim man is
! usually employed to do the trick.
The vanity fair trick is one of the
most battling in the repertoire of the
| black art A woman stands before a
/ large mirror about ten feet high and
I placed in a heavy frame. About three
! feet from the floor is a small shelf
| placed against the mirror. the bottom
OF which is about eighteen inches from
the floor. The glass having been duly
/ inspected, the young woman mounts
I the shelf. She then turns TO arrange
her hair by the mirror. She is asked
! to face the audience, but again and
again turns her back, hence the name
of the trick
Finally losing patience, the perform
er thrusts small screen in front of
her, fires pistol at the spot where she
was standing, snatches away the screen
! and she has vanished.
The top, bottom and sides of the
mirror have been in view all the time
and only the center has been hidden for
a few seconds.
The secret lies in the fact that the
lower part Of the mirror is made dou-
BILE, the bottom of the upper part being
| concealed by a second sheet OF silvered
glass placed in front of it.
The shelf fits against the line OF
junction and enables the mirror 10 be
examined by the audienve. AS soon
as the screen is placed the mirror slides
up about foot into the top OF the
frame. The bottom of this mirror is
cut away in the middle. leaving hole
about eighteen inches square, which
has been previously concealed from
view by the double glass at the base.
Through this hole the lady instantly
slips and escapes by a board which has
been pushed forward from behind the
scenes while the Vanity Fair" by-play
was going on. The glass then slides
down again. the screen Is removed and
the mirror appears just as solid as it
was before.

One feature of the Typographical
union which is not embraced by any
other unions is the magnificent home
which 1t maintains for its old and dis

an eminenee overlooking Colorado

air A couple of ordinary chairs are
placed on the stage-well toward the
back. which is draped with black cloth
and upon these is laid a broad, thick
plank. A young lady is then intro
duced and is assisted to place herself
in a recumloent position on the plank.
He then draws aside the chairs. and
the plank, with the lady On il. remains
apparently suspended in the air To
prove that the plank is not supported
the exhibitor takes a large hoop and
passes it backward and forward over
and around the plank.
Yet there is an attachment. AS soon
as the lady is placed in position on the
board a carriage, placed behind the
black curtain and supporting a strong
iron bar, twice bent upon itself, is
pushed forward by an assistant so that
the iron bar-which is covered with
black cl0th-GO mes out through a slit
IN the curtain while the exhibitor is
pretending to nesmerize the lady. The
bar has at its end a very strong clip,
and the performer. while making his
hypnotic passes, guides this on TO the
board. The chairs are then removed
and the board remains suspended by
the invisible iron bar.
The hoop Is passed along from one
end until il reaches the bend where the
bar passes through the curtain. The
performer then passes IL round the end
of the board and himself walks behind,
passing the ring along in the opposite
direction. Next IT is brought back
again. and the effect is such that the
average spectator is convinced that the
hoop has really been passed over the
lady and the board from end to end.
Another very effective illusion. ar
ranged upon the same principle, shows
the head and bust of a lady supported
on three-legged stool, resting on a
small table. One can apparently see
not only. between the legs of the table
TO the back of the stage, but through
the space between the stool and the
table.
In this case the three-legged stool is
arranged with mirrors precisely as In
the tripod Illusion, but the table-which
has four legs-is managed differently
A large mirror is placed diagonally
under the table, joining two opposite
legs. Thus the spectator really sees
three of the legs. the fourth being sim
ply the reflection Of the first.
