Houdini's Latest Stunt. "

Harry Houdini 1.-THE IIandcun King
went from Chase's TO Philadelphia and
his original engagement Of TWO weeks
has been extended 10 a third, ending
next Saturday night. In q recent issue

lowing article that win be interesting
here.

of the most surprised men in Philadel-
phia today. Houdini, the mysterious, Is
the cause of their bewilderment and the
only consolation they nave IS the fact
that they are not alone in their myst-
fication.
THE men named in the rrst para
graph are seven of y. Snellenburg *
Co.'S most expert packers uud nailers.
Early in the week they conceived the
idea that Houdini's act, in which he es-
canes from a tightly-iocked and rope
round trunk, was a fake, and they
sent aim a formal challenge TO allow
them to produce a packing box into
which he would allow himself 10 be
nailed and then see if he vouid escape
Houdini accepted the challenge ana last
night the men appeared with one OF the
strongest half-inch boxes used by the
big firm and fastened by double the us
nal number of long wire nails. Houdini
examined the box critically and then
requested the men TO again go over the
hoy and nut in some more :-ails and
cIincb them on the inside Assisted
ny a committee of zen men selected
from the audience and headed by for
rner Police CAPTAIN John w. Emery,
the seven experts, clad in their aprons
and handling their own hammers and
nails proceeded to make ;ne ooX more
secure. Then Houdini lightly leaped in
side the case and the men proceeded
not only To nail down the lid. but to
tie the box up with 4 long rope. It
looked impossible for even sheet Of
paper to get out of the box and the
committee returned to their seats on
the stage with self-satisfied smiles and
a get out of that if you ru,I-' express
sion on their faces.
The curtains were drawn, and as min

or motion was heard from behind the
screen, the looks changed to those OF
conviction that at last the wonder was
literally and figuratively Tin box" At
the expiration of - minutes and so sec
onds. however, the curtain was thrown
suddenly aside and Hou3ini appeared.
He was there, but he was a wreck.
Beads of perspiration stood out on his
forehead, his shirt was torn and one
half of his collar was il pace
Quickly taking the Instructions away
the box was seen precisely as it was

two minutes, but when the signal of ap-
probation vas started II kept the magi-
elan bowling for at least a quarter of

to congratulate Houdini on his great
work. and the members SHOOK hands
gingerly with Houdini as though afraid
that he was not real flesh and blood.
