TRICK WAS COSTLY TO HIM
Conjurer Who "Found" Coins on
Street Car Floor Forced by Con-
ductor to Turn Over Money.

A conjurer performing at local
theater got on a street car with two
members of his company, and after
while, moved by some sudden impulse,
he pretended to find sundry quarters,
stopping her and there, and producing
them from under the seats, on the
floor anywhere, to the amaZement OF
the passengers, says the Toronto Mail.
His two friends laughed heartily at
the joke. Not so, however, the cOnduc-
Tor who came forward and sternly de
manded the twelve 25-cent pieces he
had picked up" in order that he
might hand them over in accordance
with the regulations governing lost
property found in the cars.
In vain did the Finder" protest that
it was only a conjuring trick. The
conductor obviously did not believe
him. And in the end, in order to
avoid Il compulsory visit to the police
station he had to give up the coins.
