THE QUEEN’S THEATRE—HOW IT’S DONE.
To the Editor. Sir, — The fame of the conjuror who has been outdoing the tricks of the spiritists with such marvel’ous success that his entertainments have become the attraction par excellence in Dunedin, has previously been noted in Australia. After puzzling the most acute observers and the most competent jugglers of the Southern Hemisphere, I beg to°inform your numerous readers that a friend of mine has now been generous enough to let the world know the mysteries of the art. Speaking of the tying and untying business, be says—This is “how it’s done.” The third knotis uottiad until the first knotisnot where it was after the second knot was made, but this is not the knob I mean. Not bub what the first knot is not so knotted as not to come unknotted when not wanted or before blown upon. That’s not it. The knot must not be in a kuot, or rather not out of the knot behind the first knot until the second knot is—you understand—and then you blow. —Yours, &c., One who Knows. Dunedin, May 20.
