MAKING SAND MUSICAL.

From The London Globe.
Mr. Cecil Carus- Wilson has found way OF making
sand musical Ii Is well known that certain sands, like
that of the Jebel NagOus or Bc Mountain Of suez or
noe Of thc beaches Of Hawaii and other places nearer
home such as Sindand Bay and Eige, yield musical
notes of differ rent pitch when disturbed by the wind
n The tread Of by-paSscr. The cause Of this sound
e ather mysterious, but Mr. Cans-WilsOn attributes
IL IN tho friction OF the polished surfaces of the grains
On one another According 10 this theory, IL is nee
ossarv that the grains shoud be qute clean and Of
eeTtain size and polished. Dirt, mixture Of fine
sand and rugh edges would probably spoil the effect
n T. - moot of his theory that he has recently been
able 10 improve the note given out by musical sands
wasbing and sitting them 50 as 30 get smooth grains
of a favorable size Moreover, when snch grains are
very Son0rous.

HONESTY IN FINLAND.
An Instance of the Heroic TruthfuInes

An Instance of the Heroic Truthfulness
 of the Natives.
 The Fins are an upright, faithful and hospitable people. A writer in the Saturday Review speaks of their hon. esty as proverbial, and proceeds to give some experiences of his own as illus trative of the scrupulous and even "heroic' manner in which they tell the truth, and the whole truth, under the most difficult circumstances.
 '"This seems to be exactly the kind of apparatus am looking for," said to a merchant in Helsingfors, as looked at an article worth about seventy-fve dol lars; 'I will buy it at once If, knowing what I want it for, you can honestly ad- wise me to take it."
 "No, sir," he answered.; q do not recommend you to take it, nor have I anything in stock just now that would suit you" And left the shop and pur- chased what wanted elsewhere.
 Here's your fare," said to peasant in the interior, who had driven for three hours through the woods in his drosky, as handed him four shillings.
 'No, sir; that's double my fare," he replied, returning me half the money. And when told him he might keep it for his honesty, he slightly nodded his thanks with the dignity of one o1 natures gentlemen, from which defiant pride and cringing obsequiousness were equally absent.

Mules Stronger Than Horses.

The chief reason why a mule can nearly always wear out a horse, when it comes to trial of endurance, is that the former always lies down to sleep, and the latter, in large number of cases, sleeps standing up. The habit seems to come to horses which have been hurt, especially when in the stable, and they cannot be broken of it. Be- sides the absence of proper rest and the constant danger of a heavy fall and con- sequent injury, this habit of standing up to go to sleep results in the giving way of the front knees and gives the ami nal a prematurely aged and crippled condition. A walk through any large stable at night will show a number of horses standing up, but fast asleep, and whether these use three or four legs to stand upon, the knees of the forelegs are all baggy. With a mule, of course, it is quite different, for "Jack'' lies down the moment he finds work is real ly over, and somnambulistic mule is seldom if ever met.

MEN WHO HAD TAILS.
o~e:listoric Skeletons with Caudal A.

o~e:Iistoric Skeletons with Caudal Ap-
 pendages Found in Old Mexico.
 discovery which will probably prove of immense interest to ethnolo- gists has been made at the little ham, let of Sinaloa, Mex, within the past few days while breaking ground for a large coffee plantation which is being established by an English syndicate, says the Philadelphia Times. The find consists of thousands of skeletons either of large apes or of prehistoric human beings of a very low order. If the remains arc of apes they were of gigantic size and of 8 variety no longer extant, while if they are of men the men were provided with distinct caudal appendages, very thick and short and curled up like squirrels. That they are the skeletons of apes can hardly be doubted, judging from the arms, which reach nearly half a foot below the knee, and the thumbs, which are also abnormally long and curved, with exceedingly sharp and powerful nails.
 The feet, too, show that they were in- tended for climbing rather than walk ing, and are also provided with claws and prehensile toes of unusual length. It is probable that the large number of skeletons found is due to battle be- tween two bands of the animals having taken place at this spot, which is further evidenced by the number of broken skulls and other bones among them, and the fact that several of the skeletons were found clinched in a deadly embrace. No weapons, how ever, were discovered, but as these were probably of wood they have per ished in the course of time.
 The work of searching for other re- mains still goes on, every hour seeing hundreds of more detached fragments or occasionally whole skeletons un- earthed. It is calculated that over four hundred entire ones have al ready been disinterred. A few of the most perfect have been sent to the British museum and others will be pre- sented to the Smithsonian institution by the owners of the land.
