The Sound of Light.

One of the most wonderful discover
les in science that have been made
within the last year or two is the fact
that a beam of light produces sound.
says the american Dirt JOurncL A
beam of sunlight is thrown through II
lens on glass vessel that contains
lampback, colored silk or worsted, or
other substances. A disk having Sits
or openings cut in it is made to revolve
swiftly in this beam of light, so as to
cut it up, thus making alternate flashes
of light and shadow. On putting the
ear to the glass vessel strange sounds
are heard so long as the flashing beam
is falling on the vessel.
Recently a more wonderful discovery
has been made. A beam of sunlight
is made to pass through prism, so as
to produce what is called the solar
spectrum or rainbow. The disk is
turned, and the colored light of the
rainbow is made to break through it.
Now, place the ear to the vessel con-
tanning the silk, wool. or other mate
rial. As the colored lights of the spec
trum fall upon it sounds will be given
by different parts of the spectrum, and
there will be silence in other parts.
For instance, if the vessel contains
red worsted and the green light flashes
upon it loud sounds will be given.
Only feeble sounds will be heard when
the red and blue parts of the rainbow
fall upon the vessel, and other colors
make no sound at all Green silk gives
sound best in red light. Every kind
of material gives more or less sound in
different colors, and utters no sound in
others. The discovery is a strange one,
and it is thought that more wonderful
things will come from it.

Gen. Crook as a HuntSman.

Gen. Crook was very fond of hunt
ing" said Lieut.. Kennon, land was
one of the best shots l ever saw. When
he was young officer he always did
the hunting for his mess. In those
days sometimes the mess bills exceed
ed the officers salaries, and / have
heard Gen. Crook tell how they made
him caterer, and by his intimate knowl-
edge of the Indians economical meth
DDS of cooking and his luck at hunting
the mess was soon able to declare divi-
dends. | have been with him on many
hunting trips, and | never saw better
or a steadier shot. Sage hens are not
the easiest game to bag, and yet l have
seen him repeatedly drop bird out of
a flock with each barrel; not only that,
he would kill a chicken every time.
His eye was so quick that while aim
ing he could select the chicks instan-
taneously. With all his experience
and trials Gen. Crook was as simple as
a child. He was straightforward and
truthful, and had no patience with con-
cealment or trickery. He never broke
his word to white man or rcd man.

ONE OF NATURES cURlOSlTIES.
Mysterious BottomIess Lake Which No
Living Thing Can Survive.

DEVILS Lake. in Calhoun County,
Alabama. seventy miles east of Birm-
ingham, is one of the most remarka-
bic natural curiosities to be found in
America. The lake is oval in shape
and covers about four acres of ground.
No vegetation of any kind grows on its
banks and nothing lives in its waters.
Even snakes and terrapins shun the
waters of Devils Lake, and fish placed
in it die in a few hours. The water is
clear limestone, with a peculiar taste,
which makes it unpalatable to man or
beast. Horses and cows will not drink
it, no matter how thirsty they may be.
Deep down below the surface of the
lake may be seen what appears to be
the charred and blackened trunks of
large trees. They stand upright in the
water, but have neither root nor
branch and never rise to the surface or
sink to the bottom. The lake has no
outlet and the volume of water in it is
the same all the time.
A strange fatality attaches to this
lake. Once it was the favorite resort
of the boys of the neighborhood for
bathing and swimming. but now they
never 60 near it. Fifteen boys have
been drowned in its waters in twice as
many years. A few of the bodies were
recovered but those who were drowned
any distance from the banks sunk to
the bottom aud were never brought to
the surface.
The depth of the lake has never been
ascertained. Soundings to depth of
700 feet found no bottom and the peo-
pie in the vicinity say the lake has
none. The Indian legend of the origin
of the lake is that before the white
man came to this country two tribes
became involved in a war and after a
number of bloody battles the smaller
tribe was almost eyterminated. Then
the old men and chiefs of the weak
tribe sued for peace and arranged for
council. While the pipe was being
/ passed around signal was given and
the chiefs of the strong tribe suddenly
sprang up with drawn tomahawks and
murdered every one of the chiefs of the
smaller tribe.
Then the war was renewed and car
ried on until the weak tribe was ex-
terminated. 4 few moons after the
massacre of the chiefs fire broke out
in the pine forest where the massacre
occurred. The fire burned in this spot
for eight moors and the ground sunk
down out of sight; the fire disappeared.
aud in its stead appeared a lake. The
Indians gave the lake name which
means lake of death"

The Typical Maiden Aunt.

Two elderly ladies. living alone on
Selden avenue, are very proud of a
certain 5-year-old nephew of theirs,
SAYS the Detroit Tribune. and when
ever he deigns to visit them they
lose their individuality and are his de-
voted slaves while he remains in the
house.
The other day, when he returned
home from morning call upon his
relatives. he brought with him as SOU
venirs of his visit great paper bag
filled with hickory nuts. every one of
which had been neatly cracked by their
aged fingers, and besides these he bore
a massive. old-fashioned solid silver
teapot and heavy, cut-glass salt-cellar
which had happened to please the in
FAINT fancy. He displayed his spoils to
his parents. and his father said to his
mother after the inspection: Il believe
those sisters of mine would climb up
on the roof and get down the top brick
of the chimney for the little imp if he
limited that he wanted it."
The remark was intended for her
ears alone. but Hopeful caught it. new
ertheless, and as soon as he had bolted
his dinner he put on his hat. overcoat,
tippet, and leggins and started off up
street.
About an hour afterward one of the
aunts rushed up to the house in state
of great excitement. As soon as she
had caught her breath she explained
that our little boy" had Just been to
their house. and with tears in his eyes
begged for the top brick in the chin
ncy, and she and her sister feared
that the dear chi!d's mind had been af-
fected.

mother asked It's her tender eyes Tiled

Destruction of Dead-Sea MYTHS.

Between 1870 and 1880 came two
killing blows ut the Older theories aud
they were dealt by two American schol-
ars of the highest character. First of
these may be mentioned DR.. Phillip
Schaf, a professor in the presbyterian
theological seminary at New York,
who published his travels in 1877. In
Il high degree he united the scientific
with the religious spirit. but the trait
which made him specially lit for deal
ING with the subject was his straight
forward. German honesty. He tells
the simple truth regarding the pillar
of salt, so far rs its physical origin and
characteristics arc concerned, and
leaves his readers to draw the natural
inference as To its relation to the myth.
With the fate of DR.. Robertson Smith
in Scotland and DR.. Woodrow in South
Carolina before hin-both recently
driven from their profeSSorships for
truth-teliing-Dr. Schatf deserves hon
or for telling rs much as he does.
Similar in effect, and even more bold
IN statement. were the Travels of
the Rev. Henry Osborne, published in
1878.

A Line of Cradles Around the World.

1t has been computed that between
sc. 100000 and 100000 babies are
born in the world each year. The rate
of production is, therefore, about 70
per minute, or rather more than one
for every beat of the clock. With the
one-a-minute calculation every Republic
reader is familiar, but it is not every
one who stops to calculate what this
means when it comes to years supply;
it WILL therefore, probably startle a
good many persons to find on the au-
thority of Il well-known hospital writer
that, could the infants of a year be
ranged in a line in cradles, the cradles
would be overflowing aid at the same
time extend around the globe. We
have the ingenious conclusion also that,
supposing the little ones grow up and
the sexes be about equally divided, we

for each soldier besides. The same
writer looks at the matter in still
more picturesque light. He imagines
the babies being carried past given
point in their mothers arms, one by
one, and the procession being kept up
night and day until the last corner in
the twelfthmonth had passed by. A
sufficiently liberal rate is allowed but
even in going past at the rate of 20
minute the reviewer at his post would
only have seen the sixth part of this in
fantile host after they had been passing
him at the rate of l, 200 an hour during
the entire year! In other words, the
babe that had to be carried when the
tramp began would be able to walk

rades had reached the reviewers post;
and when the years supply of babies
was drawing to close there would be

Bismarck's Diplomacy.

The greatest figure, beyond question.
of the nineteenth century, after the
first Napoleon. recently put off his
harness and retired to private life,
without exhibiting to the world the
spectacle of declining powers or abated
energy. No man in modern times has
ever borne heavier burden, or borne
his burden with less appearance of la
Dor or dismay. There are two periods
in his history, according to his own
story, when the anxiety of his position
was almost too much for him. One
was when he was waiting to see what
the French Emperor would do when
Prussia was preparing to fight Austria
in 1866, and the other was when the
attack on the Austrian position at
Sadowa had failed early in the day. and
there was still no news of the Crown
Princes force. The Austrian war was
emphatically his venture; he had
dragged the court, the army, and the
Prussian Parliament into it, and may
be said to have staked his head upon
it's success. Had it failed, the world
would probably never have heard of
him again. In fact he is said to have
meant to carry out its condemnation
himself with pistol. His play with
Napoleon, during all this period, has
been described in a remarkable series
of papers in the Revue des Deur Mondes,
and they can hardly be said to be
pleasant reading. In no episode of
Bismarck's life does his INSCRIPTIONS
ness and his contempt for human nv
ture come out more clearly. He had
studied Louis Napoleon, as he studied
every man with whom he had much to
do, and he knew hint thoroughly, played
on all his weaknesses with Il master
hand, and loaded him with contempt
when Austria had been brought to her
knees and he had made sure of a united
Germany at his back when the next
great conflict came. The whole story,
in fact, carries us back to the diploma
cy of the sixteenth century. I. Post

A Scientific Cannon.

A cannon, even though small one,
is not usually regarded as necessary
part of an explorers outfit. Such IA
weapon has, however been trundled
into northern Thibet by the expedition
which the late Gen. Prejevalsky head
ed. According to Russian report this
cannon is expected to serve the very
prcitic purpose of determining the rate
at which sound travels through rarefied
air at heights of $4,000 feet and up
ward. Like firearms made for the At
rican trade. its chief function will be to
make a noise, and it has the unique
distinction of being IA cannon with a
purely scientific purpose.
