An Acoustic AID.

One of the most singular features of
the older churches in England and
Western Europe, says the st. Louis Globe
Democrat, is the presence in the walls
of large numb of jars. They are i'm
bedded in the masonry, with the neck
turned toward the interior of the church
and the mouth opening into the audience
room.
For long time the openings were
supposed to be holes in the walls, but a
closer examination, number of years
ago, of one or two of these old buildings,
disclosed the fact that the openings were
the necks of jugs, and led to no little
speculation as to why they had been
placed there. All old churches-that is
to say, churches erected from the
Eleventh to the Seventeenth centuries
have them, and in some they are pres
ent in great numbers. A church in
Leeds, England, has over fifty, while this
number Is considerably exceeded in
some ofthe old French churches, nearly
200 having been counted in the Cathe
dral of Angouleme, in France.
The explanation of their presence is
easy. They were placed in the walls
with view to lettering the acoustic
properties of the building. The idea is
as old as Vitruvius, who, IN work on
the Roman theater, advises that earth
enware jars be placed in the walls for
the purpose of increasing the reso-
nance of the building. In several
Roman structures such jugs have been
found, used in the way afterward
adopted by the architects Of the Middle
Ages. As to the efficiency of the de-
vice, it's employment is open to ques-
ton. For increasing the acoustic prop

ably useless, but no one can certainly say
that they are so until the experiment
has been tried of constructing two
rooms, with jugs in the walls of one and
the walls of the other solid. A test
made under these conditions would de-
termlne the question, which otherwise
must remain unsettled.

From Cape Horn.

Messrs. Rousson and Wil!ems, the
latest explorers to describe TERRA del
Fuego, have just arranged in the Muse
splendid collection illustrating the eth
nology and natural history of that part
of South America Most of the hun
dreds of articles which they are exhib-
iting were obtained in the eastern part
of Terra del Fuego, and they supple
ment in very satisfactory way the rich
collections that were made eight years
ago by the Cape Horn Mission in the
western and southern parts of the ISL
and.
The striking contrast between these
regions is we'll shown, says the New
York Sun, by the differences in the COL
iections brought from them. One highly
interesting tact seems to have been
conclusively proven by recent studies
of TERRA del Fuego. 1t is now believed
that the Onas, who inhabit the plateaus
of north and east TERRA del Fuego. are
nothing more or less than Patagonians
who crossed the Straits of Magellan
probably as early as the discovery of
the western world. They are very diff
ferent, both in language, manners and
physical characteristics from the Fue-
IL
and western part of the archipelago.
The Fuegans are divided into two tribes,
the Alakalufs in the west and the Yah
CANS in the south. It is believed these
tribes are the scanty remnant of an an
cient American race, to-day almost ex-
tinct, which formerly peopled large
part of South America. almost to the
Amazon.
The skeletons of the Onas and the
Yahgans shown in the Paris Museum in
dictate striking differences in their phys
iognomy. The Onas, like the Patago-
mans, are among the tallest people in
the world, while both tribes of the
Fuegans are only of medium height.
The Onas also differ from their neigh
bors in the form of the head, face, nose,
ana other physical characteristics.
There is not so much difference in
the handiwork of the three tribes ex-
cept in variety and quantity. The Yah
gans, probably the lowest in the scale
of civilization of all American tribes.
have neither the bows and arrows nor
the skin clothing which are found
among the Onas and the Alakalufs.
Among these last two peoples the diff
ferences in their rude manufactures
are still less noticeable, and it is evil
dent that the two Fuegan tribes have
derived what little culture they possess
from the Onas.
1t is worth observing that the topo-
graphy Of the regions occupied by the
Onas and Fuegan tribes is also strik-
ingly different. The Onas inhabit large
plains or pampas where almost no tim
Der is found. but through which rivers
have cut deep gorges. South of this
region comes rolling and wooded ter
ritory, where impetuous rivers roar
through the forests to the sea. Then
farther south and west are the regions
of lofty and snowclad mountains.
Southern TERRA del Fuego is abundantiy
supplied with rain, while rain seldom
falls in the northeastern and compare
lively level portions of the country.

They Will Not Be Popular.

81 don't see how that hunpbacked
man can be SO venturesome.
''But he isn't humpbacked at all.
That's only one of these life-preserver
bathing suits. That part of the jersey
under the arms and across the back can
be inflated and acts as drowning pre-
ventive."
And so it was, but the wearer seemed
completely deformed, and it Is not
likely that that style of suit will ever
become popular, since those who are
good swimmers scorn such assistance,
and those who are not don't go
out far enough to feel the need
of it. Still, every once in a while
one of these suits appears, and occa-
sionaliy young woman with regular
life-preserver strapped over shoulders
and under arms, goes into the water.
One such was seen to-day, and as she
does not go out above her knees in the
surf, the reason Of its wearing was not
very apparent. It made her look So
conspicuous that in many ways it was
life preserver with young woman in
stead of young woman with a life-pre-
server.-Atla1tic Citv Letter.

A Systematic Bent.

O. 2. Schuyler tells the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat how he once rode from

wager with prominent railway
official. "By the terms of the wager [

Before riding out my ticket I would
manage to ask the conductor several
questions about the town at the other
end of his division, our time of arrival
there, etc. I would then don smoking
cap and 90 forward to the smoker and
take my ease. Frequently the conductor
would pay no further attention to me
and would 60 through nicely. Some
times a conductor would come along
looking for checks. I would name the
town at the end of his division.
THAT generally satisfied him. If he
insisted on seeing my check would
tell him my hat was in the next car.
Only one came to report that my tile
contained no check. I was a trifle in

The SULTAN,S GIET.
Why Grants Horse Was Changed for Or
of Another Color.

Why Grants Horse Was Changed for One
of Another Color.
Next to Washington, says the Ameri-
can Tribune, Grant had perhaps the
best horses of any other President, and
one of the best horses he drove was Sc
cured right here at the capital. His
name was Butcher Boy, and Grant
name l him this from the circumstances
attending his purchase. He was out
driving one day while he was President
and he tried to pass butchers cart,
but though he had d fast horse, the cart
kept in advance Of him, and he saw that
the horse which pulled it was a good
one. He kept after the cart until it got
into Washington, and followed it to It's
stand near the market and marked the
place at which the driver stopped. He
then sent man to buy the horse and
he got it for a small amount, but it
turned out to be last horse and good
one.
Speaking of Grant, one of his closest
friends here at Washington was Gen.
Ed. Beale, and it was to Gen. Beaie that
he gave two of the horses which were
sent him from Turkey by the Sultan,
and [ think these are now on Gen.
Beale's farm near Washington. While
| was IN Turkey few years ago I had
chat with the dragoman of our legation
at Constantinople, and be told me a
queer story OF the selection of these
horses by the Sultan. The Sultan had
sent the instruction that they should be
sent to President Grant as gift from
him, and the minister had, in company
with this dragoman, tried them. One

discovered fault, and he insisted that
the Sultan and ask him to send better
horse.
The dragoman replied that ne could
not do this; the horses were gift, and
he used the proverb about mot
looking gift horse in the mouth"
But the minister insisted, and the
dragoman went to the Sultan and asked
for an audience. He is, by the way,
man of fine sensibilities, and as an in
terpreter for the legation, he is the
most important of all men to Americans
in Turkey. Said he to me: II felt very
much ashamed of myself and my mis-
sion and did not know what could
do until at last thought struck me
that the horse was black one and that
black was the color of mourning in
America. When I entered the palace
the first thing the secretary asked me
was as to how the minister and myself
liked the horses, and replied that they
were the finest horses that we had ever
seen, and that our President would feel
very proud and would be delighted
with the gift. then vent on to praise
the horses, and especially the black
one, which I said WAS magnificent in
every respect, but-here stopped, and
W s Is there eu anything the the matter
with the horse p
"'No,' said I, but you know black is
the color of mourning in the United
States. It means death with us, and [
just wondered whether such eft
might not be considered ominous if
sent by the Sultan. The secretary saw
the point at once, he spoke to the
Sultan, and I was thanked for my sug-
gestion, and the horse was changed for
one of another color and as sound as
