Show - RUBBER HANDS. The Ilnre Trick or a Medium In Salt Lake City. It happened at a seance in the southern south-ern part of the city tho other night. The medium had astonished his audience audi-ence with mysterious rappings and shadowy messages from tho spirit shore. At last tho medium became exhausted ex-hausted aud begged the indulgence of his audience, promising much on the following night. Among the sitters was an old Philadelphia man who had seen rr.any such tricks. Approaching the medium in a confidential way he said : "I used to held a fellow run one of these things in Philadelphia. He used rubber hands. What do you use?" Knowing that ho was to the wall the medium replied softly: "I use the same and work them with wires attached to my feet." People who delight in attending seances and shaking hands with departed de-parted friends now in the spirit world will do well to remember that the cold hand they grasp is made of common every day rubber. These frauds cannot can-not be exposed too quickly. |
