What manner of man Is this chap

To slip from handcuffs, chains or
steel barred cells Is but ordinary
pastime for him.
That kind of thing Is baffling dnough
to moat of us, but when this slender,
gentlemanly fellow allows himself

Brtndamour performed that feat
Wednesday evening In the presence of
a curious crowd that packed every
nook In. the Casino. Daniel Brothers
Company Issued the challenge, and
Brtndamour accepted It. The box waa
prepared by the firm, and was made
of good stout boards and the exhlbl
tlon took place under the direct es
plonsge of six employees of the house.
First Brtndamour waa heavily man
acled at the wrists and ankles, and his
hands handcuffed to the chains at hts
which waa securely I
the stooping position he just
Itted
made of one solid piece, was
down with twelve-penny spikes, and
the committee saw to It that there were
jugh to hold. Then the box waa
jed several times securely.
_n the center of the stage waa a red-
curtained booth behind which the box
was rolled. The committee took sta
tions about the booth to Intercept any
possible outside collusion. The box
with Its human contents waa hidden
behind the curtain at exactly 9 o'clock.
Flro minutes passed amid a breath
less hush. No sound came from the
stage. Afterwards one of the commit
tee stated that the only sound heard
by him as he stood within a foot of
the booth waa a muffled scuffling.
When ten minutes had passed some
one started a hand-clapping, but It fell
dead with no response from the audi
ence. whose overy nerve seemed strain
ed. The look on all faces was one of
wondering expectancy.
At fourteen minutes past 9 the cur
tain suddenly parted and Brtndamour
stood thtre beside the box. manacles
In one hand, sack In the other. The
box was rolled to the front of the
stage, examined minutely, showing ab
solutely no trace of having been dis
turbed and with the cords still about it.
The box Is displayed Thursday In the
show window at Daniel Brothers Com
pany. Explain It? Sure. There's one
man In Atlanta who can do It to the
complete satisfaction of the moat skep
tical. His name? Why, Brtndamour.
