BELLS HEARD 100 MILES

BELLS HEARD 100 MILES.
A peal of bells has been heard
at upward of 100 miles. 1t is re.
corded that ship was sailing
along the coast OF Brazil, far out of
land, when suddenly several OF the
crew, while walking the deck, no.
tlced that when passing and re-
passing particular spot they al
ways heard With great dlstinctness
the sound of bells Ginning sweet
music, as though being rung but
short distance away, Astonished
by this phenomenon they quickly
communicated the discovery to
their mates. but not one of them
was able 10 solve the enigma as to
the origin of these seemingly mys-
terious sounds. Months after
ward, upon returning to Brazil,
some Of the listeners determined to
satisfy their curiosity. Accord
ingly they mentioned the circum-
stances to their friends, and were
informed that at the time when the
sounds were heard the bells OF the
cathedral of San Salvador, on the
coast, had been ringing to cele-
brate feast held in honor of one
of The eaints. Their sound,
favored by gentle, steady breeze,
had travelled a distance OF more
than 100 miles over the smooth |
water, and had been brought to o
focds by sails at the particular
locality in which the sounds were
first heard. 1T has been found |
that the human voice, speaking in |
the open air, when it is calm, can
be he ard at DISTANCE OF AGO feet.
A breeze will carry a powerful
human voice 1915 feet. or nearly
three miles. The report o. a
musket can be heard at q distance
of 10000 feet, and the music of a
strong brass band, l5,640 feet; the
sound Of drum, 10,560 feet, and
very heavy cannonading, 475,000.

REMEDY FOR SMALLPOX.

r.. W. Robbins, Walnut Grove,
Ala, sends the Courier-J Journal
the following, which he clipped
from Southern paper. 1t is said
to be almost infallible. Oar read
ers should cut it out and save it.
"The smallpox is found to con-
sist of a few ounces of foreign
matter in the blood, which can
never escape but through the
glands OF the skin. Let the pa
tient place his feet in hot water
and rap himself up in blankets,
and commence drinking two or
three quartz OF water in the form
of light black tea, as hot as he can
bear. The oxygen of the water
soon restores the full power of the
nerves; the water diIutes the blood,
and the great heat expands the
smaller blood vessels, so that the
restored nervous power can drive
the blood to the surface where the
glands secrete the foreign sub
stance which forms the pox and
expels it in two or three hours, and
can never fail to do So"

VOLGAn THIEVES.

Suspicion That There Such Among the
Selects of British Aristocracy.
The gratifying announcement is made,
says London correspondent, that
nothing was missed" after the great
garden party given by the Duke of Sake
Coburg at Clarence House, at which q
dozen princes and the whole fashiona-
BILE world were present One would
have thought tho announcement scarcely
necessary, but it seems that some guests
at these royal gatherings are accustomed
to appropriate spoons, forks and such
like rifles as souvenirs. This is not
theft, but loyal enthusiasm.
The same explanation of the disap
pearance of private property at the state
ball given at Buckingham palace by
command Of the queen seems scarcely
applicable. The royal plate was found
to be intact but quito a considerable
number Of ladies lost brooches, brace
let's and the like. The missing jewelry
was diligently sought for by the ball
room sweepers, supervised by court off
GERS, next morning, and one or two
small things were found, but all the
really valuable articles are still unac-
counted for.
Only two explanations both sadden-
ing and humiliating are forthcoming.
One is that there are vulgar thieves in
the British aristocracy.s The other is
that professional robbers, disguised az
dukes or duchesses or what not, gained
admission to tho sacred precincts OF

ASSEMBLING OF THE DELEGATES
AT DENVER.

of State Commits sioners
Submitted.

DENVER, Sept. 3.-The third national
irrigation congress convened today.
About 200 delegates, representing II
states and territories, were present, be-
aides representatives. of Canada, Russia,
Mexico and other foreign countries.
William e. Smythe, chairman of the
national executive committee, delivered
the opening address. Governor Waite,
Mayor Van Horn and President Byers OF
the chamber of Commercs welcomed the
delegates.
Ex-Governor Prince Of New Mexico
introduced q resolution giving every
person who has come to the convention
the right to participate, regardless OF the
representation fixed by the Los Angeles
convention. 1t was referred to ths COM
mittee on credentials. Hon. L. Q. Can
non of Snt Lake was unanimously
chosen temporary chairman.
On ressssm bling the committee on
credentials submitted resolution,
which was adopted, to the effect tn at
each etate and territory represented be
entitled to its full vote, and that all per-
sons appointed by any authority be per-
vote OF his state or territory shall be
cast.
The appointment of committees on
permanent organization, resolutions and
pisting 81 6hs 9issdr sdrelegate g from each state
and territory, was the next business
transacted.
Alter short recess the committee on
permanent organization recommended
Tor permanent officers of the congress-
the following: EDWARD Mead, Wyoming,
president: John @. Foster, Kansas, first
wee president; Thomas L. Smith, Colo.
rado, secretary; A. M. West, California,

icy. hansas, second assistant secretary.
Vice-presidents from each state and tor

Several resolutions were introduced,
which were referred to the committee
without debate, among them one By Mr..
Pierce of Texas. who asked that the
congress- be requested to appoint, and
also to ask the republic OF Mexico to ap.
point, irrigation commissions for the
purpose OF agreeing upon the di. ition of
the waters OF the Rio Grando.
Mr.. Dennis OF Canada aeked that Can
ada be included in the resolution, which
was agreed TO.
Tonight the reports OF the several state
commissioners were heard, to the exolu.
sion of any other business.
The delegates were stirred up by the
receipt OF the following letter from J.
Sterling Morton, commissiones of agri-
culture, In which he paid his respects to
the convention as follows:
The questions considered by these
irrigation conventions have nothing to
do with practical irrigation. They
amount simply to the coming together
OF body of citizens for the purpose of
petitioning congress for grants of laud
and the csssion OF whatever conttol or
ownership the general government may
have of the wntors Of the arid region"
delegate objected to the words OF
MIR. Morton as an insult to the conven.
tion, and he moyed that tho document
be returnd to Washington. J. E. Lest
appeared in the role of peacemeker, and
the letter was placed on file.

oRs HERALD: = Would you or some OF
your readers like to hear from far away
friends? We have quite number OF
Los Angeles citizens amongst our num-
Der, and We have merry scramble to
procure the HERALD every morning as
the train slows up, as it passes our
boarding car.
OF course, the majority OF our time is
Comprised in the one word, work, but
we have some pleasures. aside from our
daily papers, aud many comical incl
dents come under our immediate obser-
vation.
Men associated together as we are.
day in and day out. for weeks and
months, become we'll acquainted with
one another. and many a strange his
tor, some pathetic, some comical, could
be written from the condolences ex-
changed between the men.
We are but a few miles from the
stamping ground OF the Apache Kid,
but that fact does not cause as any
uneasness. He crossed the Southern
Pacific track but few miles from us
some little time ago.
Aside from our work, the occupationa
Of the men are diversified. Some giving
Gil their attention to reading, some
mending clothing, some cobbling shoes,
grinding tools, cutting hair, playing
high five, razzle dazzle, cribbage and
whist, while on Sunday all unite in but
one occupation, our weekly washing.
Such comical eight Rs we display lined
up the track, bent over all sorts OF uten-
Hile, from 9 coal oil can TO half barrel,
all rubbing away as for dear life. while
joke and banter travel up and down the
line. Why, Chinese laundry could
make small fortune travelling with us.
Among our pleasures we count Saturday
night highest Except payday, OF

two sleeps between work. Such chat
tering and talking takes place after sup
per that q good imitation of the cnnfu-
sion of tongues at the tower of Babel

Sometimes some one springs some
new theory upon the car. and long
discussion follows of course. While
come OF the pros and cons are naturally
shallow, there are some really deep
thiGkers amongst US, and their utter
ances would do credit to the best debat-
ing societies. Theology is common
subject, philosophy, natural history.
physics, etc., follow. but politics seem
by mutual consent tsbooed. A little
flicker once in q while. quickly smoth.
ered, is the fate OF political discussion
with us. That might he an example
worthy of following in certain other
portions OF our country, 10 it not?
Quiet gradually settles upon the car.
lights go out one by one, deep breathing

sweet sleep, the sleep OF healthy, hard
working men, claims all as victims.

Tobacco Causes Loss of Memory.

Those annoying and unaccountable
lapses Of memory experienced when one
is unable to recollect some well known
word or the name Of some perfectly fa-
miliar friend are attributed by a French
Psychologist to the excessive use of to-
bacco. This gentleman has observed
that aphasia and amnesia are at present
almost unknown among the gentler sex.
On the other hand, he has nearly inva-
riably found these Affections common in
men who are habitually heavy smokers,
while in cases where they are only of
rare occurrence he has frequently known
the extraordinary lapse to have been
preceded by an extra dose of the fra
grant weed. 1t is colnfortin;, however,
to be assured by the same authority
that moderate use of pipe OF cigar is
in no way harmful to the memory.
