Show They have a ghost show in New York which seems to tickle the taste of the aesthetic New Yorker wonderfully. The ghost appears between to duelists, and they cut and slash each other through the apparition in a way that make several ladies scream, and one or two faint. A callow New York reporter went to the manager to find how it was done, and the professor said that he was the inventor of the scheme, that it was done with a big sheet of glass across the state, and that he had a patent on the great invention. In fact it is the old device by which "Prof. Pepper's ghost" was raised in England years ago. A New York report is very easily stuffed. |
