A Great Magician

Selvin, the magician, has given
several entertainments at the Mon
arch theatre the past week, playing
to crowded houses at each perform
ance. After his first performance
Saturday evening, hundreds were
turned away from each performance
who were unable to crowd into the
house His ability to do things
which are apparently impossible to
the average mind seems unlimited.
All of his work is mystifying in
the extreme, and some of his work is
absolutely beyond the power of the
average person even to attempt Il
solution. One such demonstration
was his escape from a self-1ocking
casket, which had been borrowed
from the Pennington Undertaking
establishment, which was placed upon
the stage, in full view of the audience,
and was thoroughly inspected by
four well known gentlemen from the
audience. After the magician had
gotten into the casket and the cover
had been locked thereon, it was also
securely tied by the foun gentlemen.
A curtain was then drawn in front of
the casket, and within few moments
was thrown aside by the magician
himself, who was lying upon the
locked and bound casket apparent
ly intact
These feats of magic are still the
talk of the twen. When great au-
diences are forced to admit that
things are that are not, that it

peck Of potatoes this week that beat
the half dozen he presented us last

and had no trouble in getting $500
a bushel for them or so cents peck.
Billy thinks he is Potato Kink" this
year. and offers dollar to the first
one who can beat them in size,
smothness, color and quality. He
says he planted them in the light of

are Republicans and their employees ara
of the same political faith. The gov

ment. This number has been re-

whom SO are available and 101 I'm :
available.
The men included in the regiment
have been enlisted from as far east

tie. The machine gun, medical and
headquarters companies will probably
include most of the scattering list and
each given a permanent state station
II the Reconsideration and localization
plan is adopted.
The Emmett company will be cut
down on the Reconsideration and it Is
possible that there may be a transfer
of the company but giving Emmett 4

RUSSO-GERMAN PEACE.
Is Predicted by Prof. Muensterberg Be-
fore Next Spring.

Cambridge, Mass, Oct. 2l.-Hugo Mu-
ensterberg, professor of psychology at
Harvard university, in an address last
night before the international Polity
club OF the university asserted he had
been reliably informed that Russia and
Germany would sign separate peace be-
fore spring and that there would be an
alliance between Germany, Russia and
Japan.
Il know from reliable sources" he said,
that Russia is out of joint, is half
bankrupt, is starving and will be ready
for separate peace before spring. The
result is to be an alliance between Ger
many, Austria, Russia and Japan. Japan
and Russia are pushing towards this
combination and an overwhelming ma
jority offGerman people would welcome
it to-day.
1T rs the old Bismarckian tradition
That Germany ought to be the friend of
RiSsia and that such an alliance would
be her surest protection.
'If we really want to bring peace for
a generation there is no hope but to
bring Germany and England to an un-
derstanding before Germany and Russia
nave lnaue peace anu IoTlneu an dlIldhce'
Neither the English nor the German peo-
pie want this peace to-day, but they
ought to want it, for once the new alli-
ance is formed it will seek to crush the
ambition of England for world power.
''Some neutral groups in Europe are
seeking to bring about this understand
Ing between Germany and England: Yet
real success can be expected only if the
government of the United States under
takes this master work.
