The Robertson Association Lectures.

There was a very gratifying turnout OF
appreciative ladies and gentlemen at
Masonic Hall last night to hear DR.. Van S.
Lindsey on "The Ear, Hearing and the
Phenomena of Sound" A pleasant con-
cert prepared the way for the lecture, which,
by reason of the happy manner of
the speaker, the skiilful treat
ment Of the subject and the number
and success Of the accompanying expert
ments, greatly interested and amused the
audience. The lecturer was provided with
a satisfactory array Of apparatus for illus
trating the nature and the laws Of sOund,and
was assisted in the experiments BY Prof.
Hahn, Prof. Meininger and Mr.. Brennan,
Secretary of the Robertson Association:
A tremendous model Of the human ear
figures among the apparatus. Nopains were
spared either on the part Of the lecturer or
the Association, through its Secretary, to
make the entertainment of the evening
such as would delight a cultivated audi
ence, and this was its effect.

The Newest Indian Scandal.

(From the New York Tribune, March 23.)
The letter of our Washington CORES
pendent yesterday told shameful story
of rascality in connection with Indian
affairs which we might suppose would
make painful sensation were not the
public unfortunately so accustomed to
such scandals that ahey no longer occasion
any surprise. Four or five days before
the close Of the session Of Congress the
President requested the Chairman of the
Committee on Appropriations to secure
from Congress a vote Of $780, 900 to feed
5000 Indian prisoners whom the Govern
ment had under guard at Fort Leaven-
worth and intended to keep there until
the summer of 1879. They were Chey'
ennes, Comanches, Kiowas. and Arapa-
hoes, who had been absent from their
reservations for the past eight
months, raiding and fighting. At the
reservations there was, or ought to have
been, not only an abundance Of supplies
for their current needs, but an eight
months accumulation besides. The In
terror Department argued, however, that
it would have good moral effect to keep
the prisoners in custody at Fort Leaven-
worth until they were completely SUBJ
dued in spirit. On the lst OF March. MIR.
Parker Of Missouri inserted the item of
100000 in the committee report on the
Indian appropriation bill, and endeav-
ored to have it passed by the House with
out being read, assuring the House IN
open session that all the additions made
by the committee to the bill as passed by
the Senate amounted to mere tritie of
$4,000. This misrepresentation was ex-
posed. but the suspicious appropriation
was finally passed.
Now let us sec what was to be done
with the money. Just nine days alter
the bill became law, the Secretary OF
War ordered these 5000 Ikdians
for whose support at Fort
Leavenworth the appropriation had been
made. to be returned to their reserva-
tons, and the Indian Office Immediately
advertised for proposals for supplies. to
be delivered no: at the Fort but at the
agencies. Appropriations for the agen'
cies have already been made in profuslon
and this extra sum las been obtained by
false pretenses merely in order to fur
nish plumber for some favorite contractor
The bidder is required to deliver the sup
plies at the agencies within five days
after the award. Of course nobody car
do that who is not already prepared ant
on the ground.
. We do not know that any commen
upon this case is equired-except tina
Mr.. Parker, immediately after the ad
iournment Of Congress, received from tn

cred with dirt brought from distance.
It was very cold day when the Doctor
made this discovery, and he opened only
three of these vaults, but in each OF these
he found we'll preserved corpse-the
hair and everything complete, but they
melted to dust as soon as the air struck
them. The bones remained intact, and
one skeleton was of enormous size. some
Z or feet long.
In these vaults were willow baskets,
ornamented with shells and various
trinkets. showing the handiwork Of the
dcnarted. These trinkets all crumbled
on coming in contact with air. The
place, the Doctor says, has been observed
before, but, there being nothing visible
but dirt, has attracted no attention. The
place is almost inaccessible to men, and
how these bodies and these stones were
got there will ever remain mysterious.

darker until the day of her death.
when it commenced fading away. This
singular mark was undertaken to be re-
moved by scraping the wall and by white
washing over it but without avail. The
fact appears from accounts Of it to be un-
dcniable. Its explanation might have
been found. perhaps, by observing closely
the actions of the sick woman. 1t would
not have been an extraordinary sick
fancy for the woman to have wrought out
the mysterious sign of the cross by daily
rubbing with her fingers on the wall.

The Harvester can be bought one year and
used as Harvester, two or three men doing
the binding, and the Binder Attachment can
be had at any time afterwards.
The Harvester, when used as such, has sew
eral decided advantages over other Harvesters:
|. The machine is well built and symMet-
ricai.
2 1t has q wider cut than others.
3. The sickle is driven by pitman in front
so that the sway bar that SO often gets out of
order in other machines Is avoided.
a. The cutters are lower down and lodged
and short grain can be cut better.
5. It cannot crowd out OF gear.
6. 1t has greater elevating capacity than
most others.
Z. 1t shells less grain.
s. The grain does not slide forward.
8. The gear Of the drive wheel il not bolted
on to the spokes, but is independent on the
axle and does not, therefore, get out Of true.
The gear is under the rim OF the wheel, SO that
the dirt does not fall into it.
