Modern Magic: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Conjuring
·
Professor Hoffmann
628
Where
it
is
desired
to
produce
a
child,
or
other
specially
bulky
object,
the
portfolio
is
for
a
moment
placed
on
the
table,
behind
which
such
object
is
placed.
The
object
having
been
introduced
into
the
portfolio,
the
latter
is
then
transferred
to
the
proper
stand.
THE
GLOVE
COLUMN.--This
is
an
ornamental
column,
sometimes
of
brass,
sometimes
of
glass,
on
a
massive
foot
and
standing
about
two
and
a
half
feet
high.
It
is
surmounted
by
a
metal
cup,
about
an
inch
and
a
half
in
depth
and
two
inches
in
diameter.
The
mode
of
using
the
column
is
as
follows:--Three
or
four
rings
are
borrowed,
also
a
white
kid
glove,
and
the
whole
are
placed
in
the
magic
pistol.
The
column
is
then
brought
in,
and
placed
upon
the
table.
The
magician
takes
aim
at
it,
and
fires.
At
the
instant
of
his
doing
so,
the
glove,
expanded
as
though
containing
a
living
hand,
appears
at
the
top
of
the
pillar,
with
one
of
the
borrowed
rings
on
each
of
its
fingers.
