Cunning Succeeds in Getting Out of

making q captive of Cunning, the man
to whom the most scientifically CON
structed prison cells are no barriers TO
freedom, and who has been giving a
performance at the Orpheum theater
every night during the past week,
proved TO be no more of barrier to
Cunning than if it were constructed of
paper, instead of o double thickness of
one-inch plauks, for Cunning, before
the largest audience that has gathered
at the theater since il was 6rst opened
took just four minutes Friday night in
which to get out of the box,
The employees of the z. C. NJ. 7. of
fered last Monday to construct the box
so that Cunning could not get out of
il. Plenty of time was taken 70 make
the box as strong as it possibly could
be made, and last night it was carried
through the audience from the front
of the theater, where it had been on
exhibition.
Cunning got inside of the box, and
the eight men from the Z. c. M. |. who
had taken a hand in the construction
of the box proceeded to fasten him in
side. Nails were driven hard and fast
Every board in the box was literally
filed with nails and then strips of steel
were nailed around all Of the corners
and edges.
After the men had satisfied them
selves that they had made the case as
secure as it was possible to make it, n
canvas was thrown over the case. The
audience waited in suspense, but no
Cunning appeared.
Just six minutes after the canvas
had been thrown over the box, two
policemen marched down the nisle and
climbing upon the stage, ordered the
box to be opened. as the man inside
would be smothered, After the audi
encc had held it's breath for minute
one of the officers turned and, removing
his helmet, showed himself to be Gun.
ming The other officer was real live
one who had been called in to help out
the performance,
1t had taken Cunning just four min
utes to get outside of the box, though
none of the audience had seen him dis
appear, so swift had been his move
ments, and the other two minutes had
been consumed in slipping into the uni
form Of policeman and getting around
to the front of the thoatcr to walk
down the aisle To the stage.
