THE CONJURER’S REVENGE
“The Conjuror’s revenge” is a short story written by Stephen Leacock. The story tells how a conjuror teaches a lesson to a person who tries to spoil his magic show.
One day a conjuror was demonstrating his magic tricks in a show. He produced a bowl of gold fish out of an empty cloth. The audience felt thrilled and applauded. But, the quick man in the front row commented that the magician had it up his sleeve. Later, the magician showed other tricks such as Hindoostani rings trick, producing 17 eggs out of an empty hat, etc. But the quick man continuously whispered that the magician kept all those things secretly under his dress. His comments spoiled the show and the audience lost interest in the show.
The magician decided to take revenge on the quick man for spoiling his show. He requested the quickman to give his gold watch, kerchief, collar, and spectacles. With the quick man’s permission, he smashed all these things in the name of latest Japanese tricks. The quick man was puzzled at this. Finally, the conjuror announced that the show was over. Audience felt thrilled and left the show feeling that the conjuror showed some interesting tricks. The quick man could not speak anything. Thus, the conjuror took revenge on the quick man, for spoiling his show with his comments.
