Chinese Magic Lanterns

The magic lantern, like porcelain,
gunpowder and printing, may have
been an invention of the Chinese. For
more thar twenty centuries it has been
a staple amusement in the Celestial
empire and has been developed into
many forms unknown to the occident.
The Middle Kingdom, which has been
well termed Topsy Turvy Land, uses
tie magic lantern in just the opposite
N from what we do. having the
light and picture behind the screen,
the same as in our parlor amusement
of shadowgraphs. The commonest form
of the maxic lantern in the extreme orr
ent is a large box supported on a tr-
pod or -four legged table. The box is
about 4 feet wide by 2 high, and its
front is made of ground glass, oiled
silk or oiled white paper.
over the box is a light framework OF
bamboo and cloth, which reaches to he
ground and conceals the operator from
the audience, but leaves the glass eX-
posed to view. A powerful lamp in
front of a concave reflector throws a
strong light upon the glass or screen,
as the case may be. The top of the box
and the sides are half open to permit
the introduction of small figures. This
arrangement gives four distinct classes
of Instruments. With all four instru-
ments the exhibitions are given in the
streets, squares and market places.
They draw audiences ranging from five
to thirty and give an entertainment or
from five to fifteen minutes in length.
Each spectator is supposed to contrib
ute / cash, or a twentieth of a cent,
when the hat is passed around. Gener-
Gus or enthusiastic patrons frequently
give from 10 to 10 cash, so that the av-
erage performance nets the proprietor
about > cents. This seems ridiculous
to Americans. but in a land where an
~ablebodied man can be hired for ; cents
a day the owner of a successful magic
lantern is looked upon as a very we'll
to do individual.
The little plays which are written
about the magic figures are as onven
tional as our own immortal Punch and
Judy. The wicked tiger depicts the
career of a dissolute animal who from
killing pigs. dogs and buffalOes finally
eats a beautiful maiden and is slain by
a Monaghan chief in full armOr on
horseback. The wicked wife" forms
a compact with the devil, squanders
her husbands substance in riotous liv-
ing and, in the last scene, hangs her
self in a blaze of red fire, while the
evil one expresses wild joy in extraor-
binary oriental gesticulations. The
cruel magician the grateful dragon
the fairy foxes and other bits of
eastern folklore afford brief sketches,
which are as familiar as household
words.-New York Post.

To Give the Sack.

Two noblemen in the reign of Maxi
milan II.-1564-1566-One a German,
the other a Spaniard, who had each
rendered a great service to the en-
peror, asked the hand of his daughter
in marriage. Macmillan said that as
he esteemed them both alike it was i'm
possible to choose between them, and
therefore their own prowess must de
eide it; but, being unwilling to risk the
loss of either by engaging them in
deadly combat, he ordered a large sack
TO be brought and declared that he who
should put his rival into it should have
his fair Helena. And this whimsical
combat was actually performed in the
presence of the imperial court and
lasted an hour. The unhappy Spanish
nobleman was first overcome, and the
German succeeded in envelOping him
in the sack, took him upon his back
and laid him at the emperOr's feet
This comical combat is said to be the
origin Of the phrase give him the
sack" so common in the literature of
counting.

Professor Wilson's Lectures

Yesterday afternoon on "The Two
Great S~culptors in Nature" dealing
with two of the forms of water, the
liuuid and solid, snow or ice, and
their effect upon the topography and
shapes of nature.
The lecturer deals extensively with
the causes of the existing formations
of the hills. valleys and water courses
of the earth, as well as explaining the
action and effects of the glacial period
npon these formations and is exceed
ingly interesting.
A fuller synopsis of the lecture will

ternoon at the school house to good
sized audiences and will lecture this
evening at the Methodist Church.
Everyone should attend as the lee

Those who have raised chickens
know that one Of the troubles with
which they have to contend Is keeping
the little ones from being drowned by
the hard and frequent showers OF the
spring. Where breeders are used this
trouble Is obviated, but. on the other
hand. the chicks ought to be given
some OF the freedom Of outdoors as
early as possible. so that evIu brooder-
raised chicks ought to have . run in
the open air. The illustration shows
a design for coop with a covered run
attached which win prevent any trou-
Bile with the chicks. This run may be
made so as to attach It to the coop
