Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring
·
Professor Hoffmann
623
The
sudden
appearance
of
the
articles
in
the
frame
is
thus
sufficiently
accounted
for,
but
it
remains
to
be
explained
in
what
manner
they
were
placed
there,
as
they
have
(apparently)
never
been
removed
from
the
sight
of
the
audience.
It
will
be
remembered
that
the
smaller
articles
were
rolled
up
in
the
handkerchief,
which
was
then
placed
on
the
table.
In
truth,
what
is
placed
upon
the
table
is
a
substitute
handkerchief,
similarly
rolled
up,
while
the
original
is
dropped
on
the
servante,
and
carried
off
by
the
assistant
when
he
brings
in
the
pistol.
Having
thus
obtained
possession
of
the
articles,
he
quickly
places
them
in
the
frame,
and
draws
down
and
fastens
the
blind.
This
done,
he
closes
the
door
at
the
back,
and
brings
forward
the
frame,
taking
care
to
place
it
immediately
over
one
of
the
pistons
of
the
table.
As
the
pistol
is
fired
he
pulls
the
cord,
the
blind
flies
up,
and
the
articles
are
revealed.
