Echo Attachments


Echo Attachment.
The skill and ingenuity of the n,u.
sical instrument maker have Just sue

powers. The trombone has always
seemed an inconprehensibly stupid in.
strument to the Tninitiated auditor.
He hears a succession of notes dol,ging
about rather limited scale. and he
watches the gcn.lema an who is industri-
ously engaged in pumping up the n1n.
sic, but on the surface there is some
thing essentially inconsistent between
the two phenonena, and he generally
abandons the task of connecting cause

prise is in store for tl,n. It has hith.
erto been impossible to mute the
trombone as the neighbors of such as
still aspire to proficiency upon it know
by bitter experience. Cornets, horns
and trumpe,s have all been muted,
either by the intrusion of Il wooden
plug in the bell. or, in the case Of the
coach horn. by partly closing the bell
with one of the hands of the player. In
the from bore the bell is not only too
far away to be mutcd in this manner,

nent makes such an operation imprac-

been solved by an invention known as

The Newspapers of Persia.

Recent travellers in Persia find the
newspapers of that land 4 source of
perennial amusement. There were none
till the shah returned from Europe two
years ago. While in Paris he saw the
cabrneu with newspapers in their hands
when idle and naturally. it is said, at
tributcd their general intelligence to
this fact As soon as he arrived in
Tcherau n he established a ministry of
the press and called upon the mobiles to
aid him in his plans. AS result there
are twelve journals in Persia to-day
Among them is the Official organ Iran.
To read them. however. requires con-
siderable linguistic ability, as they are
printed in mixture of Turkish, Per-
sian and Arabic. with French und Rus
sian words here and there. Sheref. an
illustrated paper in Teheran. contains
only portraits of Russian and European
celebrities. When one can read them,
however he finds their grave CONNIE nts

Worlds fair officials are busy with
the preparations for the ded:catory
ceremonies. Fortunately, the idea of
having lot of floats in the process
sion has been abandoned. The pageant
should be grand and imposing but
everything too grossly spectacular
should be avoided. The float in pro-
cession reminds one too much of the
advertising wagons in labor day
parade. They possess little dignity.
To my mind it is Il case of the sublime
becoming ridiculous by exaggeration-
The ceremonies should be as grand as
human ingenuity can devise, for the
event they are to commemorate is one
of the most portentious in the history
of the race. But they should be digni.
fed. Happily, the directors of the ex.
position understand this necessity.
There is no longer any question that
the buildings will be substantially
completed for the dedication, as re-
quired by act OF congress. The grounds
are being prepared for the occasion
and will present an attractive appear
ance though not as perfect as when
the exposition opens next May. 1t
would be n waste of money to put them
in perfect condition at this time as the

up the buildings aud putting in the e&-
