DYNAMITE ACTIVITY.
The Irish Anarchists in France Receive a
Large Contribution from America.

A London cable dispatch says: The ae-
tiyity Of the Irish anarchists in France
continues undated. The funds Of the
Fenian agents in Paris have been aug
mented during the past week by the re-
ceipt OF $1,000 from America. Small pack
cts Of dynamite have recently been for
warded from France to England.
The Standards correspondent at Paris
asserts that the dynamite used in the Lon
don outrages was procured from an autho-
rized factory in France, and that G200 was
paid for it.
Among the members Of the Gamma
Gael in Paris are a number OF Russian
NihiliSts and four French Communists.
The Birmingham police have made addi-
tional discoveries in regard to the suspect
ed dynamite plot in which DAILY and Eagan
were implicated. They are withholding
the details for the present, but disclosures
OF a highly sensational nature are expected
at the examination OF Eagan. Further ar
rests are considered probable.

wina-sounds in the Desert.

The travellers tales of sounds like
the ringing of bells, which they have
heard in the deserts and lonely places,
are familiar. Some of them are too
well substantiated to admit of serious
dispute. Among them is that of the
noises heard at the Gebel Nakus, in
the Sinaltic Penlnsular, which the Arabs
say proceeds from a convent of damned
monks; the musical cliffs of the Orino-
CO, told of by Humboldt; and the
sound which the French savants Jollols
and Devilliers declare they heard at
sunrise at Karnak, Egypt, and describ-
ed as comparable to the ancient fab.e Of
the vocal Memnon. The sounds are not
always or exactly like the ringing Of a
bell; sometimes they resemble the music
of a string, and may be generally de-
scribed as of an intermediate character
between the two classes. A character
istic of the sound is that no one can
discern where they come from. NJ.

experiments in reproducing them artif-

field, he placed it at an angle Of 45 deg.
against the wind, when 1t gave forth a
sound. Then moving it around, he
caused it to utter the exact tone he
sought. The sound conld not be local

him, "Do you hear my gun?" Par

A similar answer was got from every
one whose attention was called to the
noise. 1t was believed 10 come from
about two miles and a half to the wind
ward. NJ. Sorel believes this expert
ment authorizes the hypothesis that the
ringing is the result Of the blowing Of
the wind over a slope at the foot Of
which is something that may act as q
resonator. What is done on a small
scale in a gun may be done on a large
scale in nature, on the face Of a noun
tain or a rock which is backed By a
valley or ravine, or which is itself elias
tic enough TO give the resonant effect.
The sounds are apparently not as readi-
ly given when the vibrating surfaces
and media are moist.

Red Jackets Hatchst.

One little anecdote of Red jacket -
lated by Judge Sheldon, at the meeting
of the Buffalo Historical Society, Ie-
Gently, will be found interesting: There
was once" said the Judge, "a black,
smiths shop on the corner where the
Post-ofiiee now stands, kept by a man
named Reese. He was a very fine
workman, a real artist in his line. One
day Red Jacket came into the shop
with his interpreter-he would never
speak English you know. Well, lie
wanted a new Ratchet or tomahawG
made. They had some talk, but Reese
finally said he would make the Ratchet
for him, and told him uD come in
two weeks for it. When the time was
up Red Jacket came for Lis Ratchet.
1t was a fine piece OF workmanship, too.
lie went off, but returned in a day or
two with the Ratchet. 1t didn't suit
him. OF course Reese was mad, but
he told Red Jacket if he would make a
model out of maple wood of just such a
tOmahawk IS he wanted, he would
make it for him. So Red Jacket made
his model and brought it to Reese, who
told him to come after 1t in a week,
He came in a week, with his interpre-
ter, as usual. Reese had told several
people, and several were in the shop
when Red Jacket came in Reese
handed him the Ratchet. Red Jacket
looked it all over, flung il across the
room, grunted Ugh and went off mad
as thunder. He had forgotten to make
N eye i'll his model, ana Reese made
the Ratchet without an eye."
