Thurston, the Magician

Howard Thurston, the worlds greatest magician, who is at the Jefferson thea tre all this week, is perhaps the most skilfull quick change artist on the American stage, and to this skill is at tributable a large part of his success. Thurston performs his changes so rap idly that, although in full view of the audience except for an instant 1t is im- possible to follow him and to determine which of the characters on the stage is the magician. One of the particularly puzzling feats which Thurston performs is. in full dress, to walk behind screen and without pause walk out the other side an entirely different character. Thurston has worked for years on these changes and he has, through constant study and practice, reached such a point of perfection that 1t is doubted if he can further clip a second off his rec ord. Those who think Thurston's per- formances are without humor should be undeceived for the audience is in an up- roar of laughter at frequent intervals.
