When the dusky bride Of Montgom-

cruelty and her two eyes nearly swol-

1t will be remembered that a few
days ago ]. 7. Reeves was arrested,
charged with the obtaining Of money
under false pretenses by making out
checks on banks where he had no ac-
count. With MI. Reeves vas arrested
a gentleman by the name Of T. H.
Hall. accused Of passing the said
worthless checks.
Mr.. Reeves pleaded guilty yesterday
morning to the charge against him
and will spend the next 80 days in the
county Jail, while Mr.. Hall, more for
tunate. will work i've days on the city
streets as punishment for being a vag.
His connection with the check matter
was not particularly criminal, but he
had no job and apparently no inten-
ton Of getting one. and therefore 1t
was thought that jail was the safest
place for him.

 Any of the back parlor tricks are al- most as simple-some are not and yet all are capable of explanation and ex- posture. It must be understood l am sneakinE now af the eharlatans I have exposed myself. Trap doors in the Washaaards or rooms mirrors. pho3- phorescent garments, face masks, ven triloauists and the rest of the needful stock in trade will explain almost any thing Taken also into consideration that nearly everything is done in dense dark ness and you have a combination of con- ditions that are most favorable to any psychic phenomena you care to seek for and that practically puts a premium upon deceit Then again 1t must be re- membered that the majority of the peo- pie who practice this "art" do so for a livelihood; that they have been in 1t since infancy; that in all likelihood their parents were in 1t before them; that they marry in their own set, and have grown as adept as the most versatile magician or prestidigitateur with the passing of the years and they have everything in their favor.

HIPPOPOTAMUS AS
 A TABLE DELICACY

From the Wide World Magazine.
 To the African traveller the hippo potamus Is a species of game particu- larly desirable, for it's ivory and it's hide are both valuable, while the not inconsiderable danger involved in it's pursuit provides the delicious emotion without which every kind of hunting Is tame and insipid. Moreover, the obli- gation under which the leader of the expedition lies to feed his servants and carriers adequately makes one of these enormous beasts, 12 feet long or so and disproportionately wide, a per- feet godsend. Not only does the hip popotamus furnish formidable amount of meat, but that meat has the inesti- mable merit of keeping fresh much longer than any other, principally ow- ing to the fact that flies seem to have an insurmountable horror of it. I must admit that for a long time thor oughly sympathized with the flies! Alive, the hippopotamus has pecu- liar odor somewhat resembling musk which discloses the presence of the ami nal from afar when he happens to be to windward of one. In the flesh of the dead animal this odor--or the taste of it, rather-persists, and is much ap- preciated by the natives, though for eigners take a long time to get ac- customed to 1t; some are never able to support 1t.

Christmas Toy Monstrosities.

From the New York Evening Sun.
 In reality the normal child is not devoured with compassion in contem- plating any of his toys. The wild-eyed, fatuous golliwog; the fussy, impertinent Jack -in-the box; Punch with his cruel, frozen grin, and all the other parodies of humanity devised for children are regarded by the normal child without anything approaching repugnance or sorrow CT pity. They simply amuse the child, and that Is just what they were intended to do. Moreover, that is quite enough, and, in most cases, it nay be doubted if the child suffers seriously in point of emotion at the sight of such toys, extravagant as some of them may seem in sophisticated eyes.

sooner than see you get away with the lew cents you are to pay, any one in the house will take a chance at reading" l have seen one of those substitutes de- hberately put a code book under his leg, and as l asked the questions, he would find the answer in the key. At other times l have been confronted with the assistant and asked to write any question on piece of paper, which was then sealed up in an envelope. The answer was always forthcoming. The explana- tion lies in the pad of prepared paper. question written on the top sheet is also transcribed through to the second sheet and this second sheet is then calmly read and answered. Sometimes the questioner is given a plain bit of paper and this is slipped in an envelope that is open at both sides. It goes right through the envelope and is "palmed." The assist ant rises, observes that he does not know whether the medium is feeling well enough to work that day, and in draw ing aside the curtain passes the "palmed' question to the real medium, who prompt ly assimilates it, and then later an- swers it.
