The incxhaustiblo bottle, which pro
duces different liquors, and apparently
in endless quantity, wa3 first made pop
ulaHn this country' by Prof. Anderson,
und since his day has been exhibited by
yen many "magicians." Of lata years,
it has been sold in tho toy-shops, and
the public have learned that its crtect is
due in part to a woll-known principle
in physics, and in part to' the wine
jjlasses used, which are made so as to
contain, at most, not more than a thim
bleful. The trick haviDg become com
mon and generally understood, con
jurers began to look about for a mean9
whereby something similar in effect
niigiit m produced, but by altogether
dissimilar means. The result is a bottle-trick
in which lager-beer is furnished
in fcullieient quantity to satLsfgthe thirst
tof iTJargc audience. It is a very effect
ive trick, and to it one well-known per
former almost entirely owes his success,
ltsis only suitable for'publio exhibition,
however, as tho beer is pumped up
from beneath tho stage, and passes
through rublwr tubing, concealed in
the dress of the performer, to tho bot
tle held in the hand. Tho connection
wifli the stage is made by means of a
hollow boot-heel, and during the prog
ress of the trick, tho performer is una
ble to move.
Senor Patrizio, ono of the cleverest
conjurers that over visited our shores,
but whoso imperfect knowledge of our
language was a bar to his success,
made quite a hit in this trick, and
spurred the ambition of tho amateurs.
One of these gentlemen, a fellow-countryman
of Patrizio, and a recognized
suasion aud many dollars induced
society-man, oy una or mucn per
the tenor to give him the secret of tho
trick.
This once secured, ho was anxious to
show his accomplishments to his friends.
He ordered tho necessary apparatus,
hired tho Union Leaguo Theater, and
issued invitations for a "swell" enter
tainment. He did not consider it worth
while to rehearse. Not he! Such urt
necessary labor might be well enough
for "professionals," but not for ono 'of
his transcendent geniu j. On the night
of the entertainment, his assistant was
taken ill, aud the Colonel for ho was
u military wian as well as a conjurer
w:is fon:cd to call in the nid of Mr.
J)-r who had for many years assisted
Ifooert Heller. This latter gentleman,
'called on so suddenly, eonliFnot be ex
pected to understand'the Colonel's little
peculiarities; out, nevertheless, mart !
aged tooarry him tolerably well through
the performance, until tho "inexhausti
ble Bottle," the event of the evening
was reached.
"Now, zen, ladees and gontlemens,
since you 'ave been so kind-er as to
honor mc wiz your praisance ttt-er-night,
f shall :isk-er zat you-ci' vill join
er inelnia glass-cr of champagne."
Bjtithis time ho was greatly excited.
Ho was about to convince tho " best
people" of New York, lc (testis llu
panier, that he was tho peer of any con
jurer who ever trod the boards. He
took-his position netvv a tabic; his heel
was screwed to the stage by the man
below, who Vvas in charge of tho pump,
nnd tho p.ssistant entered with a tray Uf
goblets.
. Now-er, zen," cried tho Colonel,
for ze-or champagne."
He gavo the signal, and th man at
the pump began to send up the liquor.
The colonel held the mouth of the bottle
over a goblot, but, strange to say, noth
ing came forth. He stamped on tho
stago with tho foot that was free, and
f:isier and faster tho man plied tho
pump. Still no liquor. The Colonel
grew more and more exoited.
Sec what is 20 mattair," ho said in
an "aside" lo his assistant, who placed
the goblets on the table end hurried off
the stage. Everything appeared to be
all right, and Mr. D had just re
turned to his position on tho sta
when there camo a hissing noise, As of
escaping steam, and the next moment
the gallant Colonel was drenched from
head to foot with champagne. It
poured from hb sleeves, trickled down
his back, and. streamed forth from his
trowsers-log. In vain he attempted to
stem tlie torrent; ho "was fixed immova
bly to the stage, screwed into position,
nnd the more he exerted himself to get
free, tho more furiously the pump was
worked. The Colonel had kept his
word, for here was champagne in abun
dance, and amid the screams and ap
plause of the delighted audience, and
tho "curses loud and deep" of tho dis
gusted performer, the curtain fell.
It seems that, in tho excitement of
the moment, tho Colonel forgot to turn
on the tap which regulated the flow of
tho wine into the bottle, and when the
rubber-tubing could nold no mo e, it
burst.
The moral of which is: never attempt
a trick until you havo rehearsed it.
An audience is always pleased when
they are offered, some refreshment,
whether in thashape of bonbons from
a hat, wino from an "inexhaustible
bottle,'' or coffee produced from white
beans. Knowing this, the elder Hcrr
man, during his first engagement in
this country about 18 j I think intro
duced" a very, taking trick, which ho
christenod Maxab'out Mocha.
His programme at tho timo was what
Is popularly known as an "Eastern"
one. and"Was supposed to consist ex
clusively of the tricks exhibited by the
much-bepuffed Tndian jugglers: hence
the name.
In introducing the trick, the perform
er shows two noses, one containing
bits ofw black nraslin of about an inch
square and the, other pieces of white
paper. Then he hands out for exami
nation two large colored glass or China
jars. " I have here two large jars,' he
says, "of Bohemian glass, made in,
Williamsburgh. They are tho only re
maining two of a dozen which I once
owned. Don't drop them, foryou might
break them, and to break a dozen
doesn't do."
The examination completed, he pro
ceed; to fill one jar with the bits of Tags,
and the other with the pieces of paper.
Then, heTrolb two newspapers into
Cylindrical shapes, remarking, as he
pins them to preserve their form,
" With., pin so. Though it is needle
less to remark that we never sew with
a pin."i With these paper cylinders he
covers the jars, and on. removing the
covers, a moment later, he pours from
one jar lolling coffee, with the remark,
"No grdteids for complaint here." and
from the other hot milk "The milk of
human kindness as extracted, from the
daily press.' The oaffee b then served
up to the andancejaad-'the triek never
f&ib to bring tiJaRsic to the player's
pars'
-aiausc jj
As with Almost even- othor trick,
there are several ways of doing iL Ono
w to pump tho coffee ami milk np frotrti
ocncatu mc stage while the JAW arc
resting on the tabb. By far the best
way, and oertalhly tho most simple, is
tho following, which I have uiml f-Jf
years without ever having it fail me.
Havo two cylindrical tin cans, made of
such bo that they will go easily inside
tho jars, but will not quite reach tho
bottom, In one end there is a Large
hole cut, which is fitted with a cork; the
other end overlaps a trifle rn that when
tho can is isside tho jar, tho overlap-
pin" emi will ret on the
edge of tho
iar. and aunnort the cylinder.
un MB
outside of one of these cans bits of the
muslin are jaled, and on the other
pieces of the -paper. When about to
exhibit the trick tho cans are filled,
one with coffee, the other tf ilfc milk,
aud placed inside tta bdX6? containing
the muslin artdpftpef. In showing tho
contents of tho boxes, the performer
passes rapidly through ifctt audience,
scattering muslin ind paner amon"
them, but without allowing them to
examine for themselves. When he
lakes the jars to fill them, he actually
does do so at first, but pours their
contents back again, as if to convince
the audience that tlicy arc really full.
Tho second time, however, he pulls tho
corks out of the cans, claps tho jars over
them, and then quickly reversing them,
and heaping a quantity of the muslin or
paper, as it may be, on the overlapping
ends, shows them to the audience who
imagine they soc ihem filled, the one
with muslin, the other with paper. The
nowspapencovers which arc placed over
thenars ar8"nieTcly to hide tho aans as
they arc withdrawn; but they mast be
neatly handled, or the whole triek may
bo spoiled. Tho performer shduhtstand
with his right side to a tablo, on which
is placed ono of tho boxes, say of mus
lin: as he removes tho cover Svith his
right hand, that hand must" bfi brought,
quite naturally, over I lie Mx", into which
the can must be allowed to drop. At
lln" same moment the loffchand, holding
the jar. must bo extended toward the
audience, who aro naturally attracted
to it, and the newspaper cover must be
crumpled up and thrown od the stage.
As a preltv wind-tin for tills, trick.
iul me suggest, mc loiiowing: m"c a
largo cup in tho shan cf coffee cup,
made of tin And painted white, so
OSto rosGlnble china. In tho center of
this cup must be a partition. To ono
side of this partition, in the
bottom, cut a large hole, and let the
other side bo filled with liny bits of
paper. The cup is set in a very deep
saucer, and after tho performer has
helped tho audience, he pours out A
cup for himself, using this trick cup.
Of course, the coffee runs out into the
saucer, but as it stands well up the
stage, the audience do not see this.
When the cup is apparently full, the
J performer walks down to the foot-lights,
iniliilnria in !i lit.t.!i Tvmfnmimi. tn Prmv-iiv-
the idea that ho is about to drink the
j health of"hb audience, and then sud
denly throws tho contents of tho cup
toward thorn, which to their osdnbh
mout. Is not coffee, but A shower of
paper. Saibiter's MOntfili.
An Italian Nobleman as n Waiter.

A Washington hotel offers 11 similar
example now in tho porson of a young
Italian of a noble family, Who speak?,

Several responsible gentlemen, who have
seen his papers, who have told me his
story. He himself never alludes to
the subject of his changed position, nor
tries 111 liny way to attract attention" or
excite sympathy. He simply attends to
his very embarrassing duties of receiving
and seating the guests in tho lanre din
ing-room, aud whenever he haS'a mo
mojit's lcburc he is studying Englbh?
which is the one language of importance
ill which h6 is deficient. I understand
that his knbwlcdge rif European Conti

lo c'veh him that as soon as lie can
write English with ease he shall have a
place as translator in the State Depart
ment. It is in order to earn means of
support while studying English that ho
has taken tho place at tho hotel. Gen
tlemen belonging lo the legation of his
country spoke to tho landlord df his
reverses and determination to cam a
living, and secured a place for him. As
many foreigners board .at the-hotel, it
is an advantage to havcsome'onc'intho

-:A
Discordant Organ.
The attempt td Introduce an organ
into the Presbyterian Church at Toron-"
to gave rise to a violent row. The ques
tion of instrumental music in the wor
ship had been discussed for 3ears, ami
recently a majority of tho session voted
to permit the uso of a small cabinet or
gan in the weekly singing school in the
basement only. The opponents of the
measure regarded thb as the beginning
of an abomination, Which would next
be carried into tho Sunday services,
and tho other members became greatly
excited. Brother McMichael, the chor
ister, ordered the organ sent to the
church, but when it arrived tho sexton
refused to open tho door, and several
young men carried it in surreptitiously
by a back way. The music circle mot
that evening. The Rev. Mr. Kirkpat
rick occupied the chair, and made a
short address to the eflect that even an
organ might bo sanctified for religious
purposes. Then the practice of a psalm
for the ensuing Sunday was begun,
with an orgau accompaniment. Only a
single verse had been sung when the
venerable Brother Bain, a trustee, en
tered at the head of a party of anti-instrument
men, and Ordered them to
carry out tho organ. The young -men
of the circle rushed forward, and a
scrimmage ensued; but the old men were
stalwarts, and the organ was" thrown

"' EvKitVTiiixG without purpose is
without beauty," says a sensible mod
ern writer; "and aJthopgh," she con
tinues, " evcn'lhing that, has a purpose
cannot, 011 the other hand, be called
beautiful, 3et appropriateness forms so
largo -a share of beauty that everything
which flll-jlb its own jihirpdso well may
be said to have sdmo clAim to beauty."
In 'itljiui woi'dsf purpose is absolutely
essential to the beautiful, and even
when associated with elements ugly in
themselves, can consecrate them and
glorif3 them as with a touch of light
from above.
This is a truth of absolutely universal
application, and one which runs through
all the duties of life, all tho achieve
ments of man's skill, and all the pro
ducts of his :rt What is it fdrr"
WII3 does it exist?" these arc ques
tions which wo may rightly ask, in
noting every object which claims our
attention; and wo should put such ques
tions in no spirit of materialism or low
utility, but from a deep conception that
in thb world, notliing was nicant to have
no purpose or service, in God's good
nlan. So far as we turn our forces to
.the making or enjo3ing of purposeless
win valueless taings, we nj-uwe.ii, ami
fritter :iw:i3 gifts which were meant to
have tho higlioj-t unn.
Not dill3 our greatest deeds and our j
most prized possessions should have
this element of purpose, but also our
lesser actions and our most ordinary
belongings. Indeed, it b in the orna
ments of our houses in the objects of
art with which we liko to surround our
selves, or in the many little luxuries
which We gather aboub us and those
wliom we love that we should most
rigidl3 demand some salutary and
healthful purpose. There b a genuine
character in personal possessions, how
ever ordinary, and in that character is
no element more essential than the cle
ment of inherent purpose. That pict
ure on the wall what does it mean?
was it chosen for aiiy reason? does it
represent a place or an act which sug
gests to the 030 of the beholder some
wholesome lesson, or presents to him a
sight of tliat which is pure and whole
some? That parlor ornament was it
bought for any inherent and soundly
pleasurablo quality of its'own, or was
it selected merely because you jvantcd
to bu3 something, and didn't see an3
thing else that would answer better?
That book why, b it numbered
among your jjossessions? is it
because it helps you and instructs you,
or because a book-agent at the door
wearied you with his voluble persua
sions? Questions like these aro not
likely to be asked too often, or pressod
too strongly. Nor do they by any
means exclude that which b simply
beautiful. "A thing of beauty b a joy
forever," says ono poet; "beauty b its
own excuse for being," says another;
and so a sea-shell or a flower has as
true a purpose as an Alexandrine
library or a hospital-for the insane.
But one is quite sure to find that those
"who most readily excuse their mean
ingless possessions on the score of the
mere pleasure or .beauty to bo "found in
menu nre tne ones wuo most, reaai.3'
surround themselves with objects which
are lacking in true beauty. A realh
beautiful thing speaks for itself, anil
tells its own story is unmistakable lan
guage. It needs no exenso from those
-who "just thought theywonld bny it:
what was the liarm?" orfrom those who
don't isee butitb.as good a3 a great

Works. There is where the fool appears
and often a litlle of the knave. For
the mail who b 0 ready to send a do'l
hir for a lc dollar package of jewelry,
the woman wlio is so quick to buy'a
table-cloth at half price of tno peddler
who could not sell it at half price, as
she knows, unless he smuggled it 01
stole it, would do better to go into dr
dock at once and give his or her moral
character a thorough overhauling. Tho

ir The depredations of the " Ladies De-

t3 of human nature for being imposed
upon. That an adventuress without
credential:) or acquaintance could ob
tain hundreds of thousands of dollars
under the crazy promise of pavinr
eight per cent, interest a month on such
deposits is most ama.ing. And in Bos
ton of nil places! The wonder is that
people so'ftredulotts over succeeded in
getting ain funds together, or keeping
them long" enough for this swindler to
get hold of them. The audacity of Hie
ir.uul, like the majesty of Niagara,
grows upon us as we study it. It is quite
probable, as reported, that some men
slipped in their investments undercover
of their wives' petticoats, trusting that
the stream of investors would keep up
long' enough for them to get back their
principal and something fat in the way
of interest before the concern collapsed.

But tho most of those victims deserve
pity. Their experience strikingly en
forces and emphasizes tho preachment
of Good Company a few months ago
about the importanco of teaching girls
more about the principle.- of linance
and the rules governing tho judicious
employment of funds. A113 man at all

ognize at the first glance the radical im
possibility of paying eight per cent, d
month on deposits, the inherent rascal
ity or insanity of any one who should
promise to do it. It is cold comfort to

A Poor .Printer's Only Lore.
A roRTiox of the facts in regard to a
romantic and tragic lovo-affair havo
como to our knowledge through corre
spondence,and we aro not aware that
the story has 3et been published in
Eastern papers. " About two 3ears ago
a 3'oung printer iu Belfast, named
Frederick Carter, married and went to
"Montana with his bride. There ho ob
tained work in a printing oflico, and
soon becamo the intimate friend of an
other compositor in the same placo.
Through Mr. and Mrs. Carter the
printer friend (whose name we have
not 3et learned), began a correspond
ence with Mrs. Carter's sister, a young
and good-looking lady named Mary
Riggs, then residing iu Belfast. Frequent-
letters were exchanged, and,
though the young couple hail never
seen each other, they became more in
terested in ono another. At last the
compositor, who had saved money; pro
posed to marry Miss Biggs; she accept
ed, and he paid her fare to Montana,
and spent considerable monev for her
outfit, furniture, etc. She went to that
dbtant territory and the time was at
once set for tho marriage, but the young
kuly delayed; then a second date was
fixed, but at last sho told tho yonng
man that she did not like him and" could
not marry him. He was' deeply in love
with her, and hb dbappointmentwas so
keen that he committed suicide b3 shoot

that almost any trado'b preferable to it.
"Yo.i see, he said, one morning, pur
