A REMARKABLE INsTRUMENT.-
Among the fiints of the chalk for
nations is occasionally found one
which emits a clear musical sound
when struck with another flint.
Tissandier tells of a distinguished
French musician, II. Baudre, who is
a jealous collector Of these m&sical
stones and who has just succeeded
in making a unique "piano" from
them. In this instrument the fints
are suspended by wires above a
sounding board and are played up
on by two other fiints. The stones
of the piano number twenty-six,
forming the two chromatic OctaFes,
and were collected with much pa
tieut labor during period of more
than thirty years. There seems to
be no relation between the sizes of
the stones and their tones.

UNIVERSAL Color BLINDNESS
Color blindness, as usually under
stood, is blindness to red, to green
or to blue or violet; and about one
male in every twenty five appears
to be unable to discriminate be-
tween the principal colors of the
spectrum. In a stricter sense, all
persons are color blind, for, al
though Chevreul is said to have
been able to distinguish 4,420 tones
of color, it has been proven that the
human eye is totally incapable of
receiving all the vibrations of color
which must exist in the spectrum.

Under the sway of the sentimentalists
prisons have lost nearly all thefeat-

the cost Of sustaining convicts in this

Putting these two facts together, it is
apparent that prison reform OF some

THE NEWS SUMMARIZED.
The Double Lynching in Texas.

ABenham, Tex, dispatchsays: When the
mob that Iynched Sam and Ely Dyer, who
murdered Sheriff Bagsdale and Deputy Sher-
if Buchanan, OF this county some lineage,
reached the cells OF the prisoners they stuff
ed the mouths OF the Dyers with pocket
handkerchiefs. After tying their hands they
hurried them outside where the main bod y
OF the mob stood. The iailer says scarcely
a word was spoken during this proceeding.
With the prisoners at the head OF the column
they marched to spot only 800 yards from
the jail. The leader gavethe order, s'Halt,
Texans" and there under the boughs OF
tall tree, dangled two ropes. The hand
kerchiefs were withdrawn and the leader ask
ed the two men if they wanted to pray or
had anything to say. Sam begged piteous-
ly for his life, fell on his knees moaning and
weeping. He said he had been a very bad
man, but that Eli had killed both Bagsdale
and Buchanan. Eli maintained a bold front
and would say nothing except It's no use"
Neither would pray. The hanging then fol-
lowed and both the men died OF strangula-
ton. An uncle OF the murderers took the
bodies home.

Great Trade Mark Suit.

An important suit, which will doubtless
attract great attention all over the country
on account OF theinterestsi involved and the
worldwide reputation of the parties bring
ing it, has been instituted in the Circuit
Court OF Baltimore city, by the proprietors
OF the famous St. Jacobs Oil, trading as
The Charles A. Vogeler Company, against
Adolph c. Meyer, OF Baltimore, trading as
A. c. Meyer& Co. It appears from the com
plant that the defendant prepared ain arti-
Gle closely resembling St. Jacobs oilin odor,
name, signs, and symbols. Upon the label
on the bottle, he printed thewords "Salva-
ton Oil'' followed by the words "The Great
est Cure on Earth for Pain, !" in close imita-
ton in general appearance OF the words
printed on the bottles OF the plaintiffs, etc,
etc. Complainants charge that they have
been damaged by this means, and that the
public have been deceived and misled, and
induced to buy a worthless orinferior article.

The statue of Gen. Custer which was
erected at West Point a. year or two
ago has been taken down and consign-
ed to rubbish heap. This action has
been brought about by the solicitation
OF Mrs. Custer, who was disgusted from
the first with the statue, eonsid eringit
an outrage on her husbands memory.
The artist had envolve,l both the like
ness and the dress and arnas of the GEN
9ral mainly from his inner conscious
mess. The statue represented Gen.
Custer In along-ta;led coat and troop
er's boots, with a saber in one hand
and a horse-pistol in the other, with
the attitude and air OF a dime-novel
hero engaged in the impossible feat Of
exterminating, sisagle-handed, whole
tribe OF sayages, wtlile all the real char
acter!stics OF the general had been ig-
nored or missed. Notwithstanding
Mrs. Custer had furnished the artist
photographs OF the general, together
with the uniform and arms worn by
him in the West, with various informa-
ton as to the generals appearance,
habits, ETC., such as would aid the ar
list in his work. He will probably
never again be seen by the public.

congress he will distinctly define the action

waved their hats, and the cheering was re

several Irish Liberals. Although strong
whips had been issued, many government
supporters were absent. When the result.

The ministry viii probably resign and the

has been done on the Afghan question. The
whole policy OF the country is thrown into
momentary confusion. Wehopeit may not
be lasting confusion.
