ODD STUNTS WITH A WHIP.
Wonderful Fssts BY European Master
Of the Lash.

Wonderful Fssts BY Eurepsan Master
Of the Lash.
II saw a downright novelty on the
bill Of European music hail." said .
man who spends u bit Of his time on
the other side. ut was furnished BY
an Austro-Hungarian, who accomplish
ed some wonderful things with whip.
Zone Of his stunts was to take
long lnshed. stout handled whip In
each hand and. with orchestral ac-
compartment, proceed to crack or snap
them at a terrific rate. The sound
made by his whips in this manner is
graduated from 4 noise like q ride
report to the soft click Of 4 billiard
ball. 1t makes a curious sort of music
and serves to show how he can regu-
late the force Of each stroke.
another feature Of his performance
10 achieved with a vicious looking
whip with an abnormally long lash. 1t
u provided with heavy handle Of
medium length. This Is his favorits
toy, and what he can do with 1t il
really wonderful. He first gives an
idea Of what fearful force may lie in
a whiplash in the hands Of an ex-
pert. There Is large frame shown.
over which is stretched calf or sheep
skin. This is marked with dots of red
paint. The man with the whip steps
up and, swinging the lash round his
head. let's hy ut the caifskin. With
every blow he actually pulls piece
out of the leather. leaving clean cut
hole. These pieces are distributed
among the audience to show that there
Is no trickery about the performance.
after this he takes frame with
three shelves. On these there are a
dozen or more Of medium sized apples
lying very close together and provided
with large numbers. Any one in the
audience may designate which apple
he wishes struck. and the unerring
lash snatches 1t out like fash. A
still more diflcult feat Ii the swapping
Of coins from a narrow necked bottle.
A piece Of silver about the size Of .
half crown is put over the cork Of the
bottle, which stands on the edge of
table. The whip artist. without ap-
penring to take any sort Of aim. sends
the long lnsh whlzzing through the air
and picks OF the coin without Earring
the bottle. much less breaking IT,

Advertising publicity is what a
newspaper has to sell. 1t is as much

Yet thousands of citizens who would
not think OF asking merchant to

no compunction In asking that an
