A WEIRD INSTRUMENT.
The Great EOlian Harp In
Course of Construction In
Rochester.

Rochester Union
When a reporter called yesterday
afternoon at the work room of Prof
essor Dennebecq to examine the new
eolan harp he is constructing for
George Ellwanger, the artist led the
way to the roof Of the block where
the harp was signing in the passing
breeze. The process of tuning it was
suspended at the time because Of the
noise on the street, which compels its
maker to perform the operation at
night.
Professor Dennebecq is not a novice
in making the weird instruments, for
he has formed many of them, the lar
gest he ever constructed being for the
sorbonne, Paris, on the tower ofwhlch
he put one twenty-five feet long. The
one he is making for Mr.. Ellwanger is
seven feet four inches in length, four
inches and half in depth and nine
inches wide. The body of the instru-
ment is made of maple and Norway
pine, all the wood being imported. 1t
has fifteen strings, the material being
brass wire ranging from No. IA to Y,
or from about three sixty-fourths to
thirty-second of an inch in diameter.
In smaller instruments the strings are
of gut, similar to those on violins.
The strings are left quite loose, and
are tuned from high c to low Q. The
strings are situated PARALLEL with the
belly of the harp, between one and two
inches from it, while outside Of the
strings there is double sounding
board attached to the body by wire
bridges, which conveys the vibration
from one to the other.
The instrument will possess a pecu-
larity never before attached to- one,
and it would seem that it must in
crease its attractions manifold. 1t Is
the invention of Professor Dennebecq,
and consists of series of ori6ces con-
trived to catch the wind from any d.
rection and conduct it to the strings.
This result is achieved by placing the
harp on vertical pivots, on which 1t is
at liberty to revolve. A wind vane Is
attached to the harp and moves it, SO
that the strings are always presented
to the wind at the right angle. The
harp is placed in the center ola frame,
ofwhich a cross section is star shaped.
The wings radiate and catch the wind,
leading it to the harp, so that when
there is wind enough blowing from
any direction the yane operates auto
matically to bring the instrument into
position and catch a constant success
sion Of tones.

A Bridegroom in Johnson County
Arkansaw,
Dragged From Home and Thrown
Into a Creek.


Little Rock Democrat, 22.l
Old Nick seems to have got after
the boys up in johnson county, &C.
cording to the reports reaching this
city. A few days since james Ben
nett and Rosa Cudd were married al
the residence Of Mrs. Melaney, near
Butts store. There was, so far as we
are able to learn, nothing peculiar
about the wedding. The contracting
parties loved each ether and they got
married. A wedding, however, seems
to be more than the boys of Butts
neighborhood can bear. Early in the
evening, an hour after the cerem ony.
the residence in which the bridal par
ty stopped was surrounded and cha
rivari took place The noise was aw-
full and the night was made hideous
with discordant sounds No damage
was done. Later in the night the
house was again visited, this time by
party of seven men, all masked aud
completely disguised. They demand
cd admittance and were refused, bu,
before any resistance could be made
they broke down the door and crowd
ed into the bridal chamber, crowding
around the bride like so many demons
Their stay was short. They com
manded the bridegroom to 20 with
them-tore him from the bride of ar
hour-hustled him over the rocks and
through the woods, several hundred
yards, TO deep creek, and threw hin
in. They then left the scene as rap
idly as possible. Bennett climbed GU
and made his way back to the house
badly bruised and cut. Several of th
party are known and steps are bein
taken to punish them. If the affai
was intended as a joke, it is worthy Q
the heathenisn cannabals of Patagonii
and Bennett should call the law to hi
assistance.

Stuart RObsOn's Goat.

Nym Crinkle.l
The other day genial John Mathews
received letter bearing the Cohasset
postmark and containing an urgent re-
quest from Stuart Robson to procure
him a tame goat, which he wished to
present to Charles Thorne's child.
John Immediately set to work with his
usual earnestness, and, regardless Of
heat or fatigue, ransacked the city
from the squatters' at Eightieth street
to the Five points. Finally he heard
of just such an animal as a cultivated
family could receive into its bosom
with profit aud pride. "Trained2
There was never a goat so perfectly
educated it could almost speak, and
would not pass lady without bowling,
SO the proprietor said. He would new
er have parted with him but for fami-
" reasons, etc. The upshOt of the
matter was that Mathews took the
goat and shipped it to Cohasset. The
next act in this little drama was one
in which the goat appeared as star.
He went through with his part, ably
supported by pier glass, six small
mirrors, and a couple of glass doors.
Robson watched the goat out of sec
ond. story window, then wrote sadly to
Mathews that he was afraid the Cohas-
set people had not been educated up
to trained goats.
