Synopsis

Biograph summary: This is an unusually clever trick picture, full of extraordinary mysteries. The wizard materializes a huge egg. This he cracks, producing a live chicken; he then materializes another huge egg, from which an alligator is as mysteriously brought forth. The chicken is then fed to the alligator, which shows its satisfaction. The wizard then produces a small palm, and causes it instantly to grow to a full-sized tree, and then, being well satisfied with his work, bows and completes the seance.
