The snake will become 1 rigid when covered in this cloth, which is shaken with almost incredible rapid- ity by the fakir. Finally the fakir gives the cloth a quick flirt and the snake disappears. T'he empty picee of eloth remains, and, as the, man is almost naked and per- forws in the open air, within reach of no one, the disappearance seems marvelous. Now where do you suppose the snake goes? Inside of the kilama—" “The snake is trained, and while thé cloth is being shaken with almost in= credible rapidity, he jumps into an open- ing in th kir's breech clout,” broke in Mr. Riley hastily: then he added, leis- urely: “It's clever but not marvelous. You'seo the snake is o trained snake.” The Indian basket trick Mr. Riley dis- missed somewhat contemptuously. Said he: astern travelers were accus- tomed for many years to write of the basket trick as if it were a miracle.

For this he was arvested and brought to trial. But after a hot con- | test in court he puitted, and a d cree was pronounced from the bench establishing the entive legality of this form of funeral.
