Effect of Music on Animals,

The Investigations of Professor
Hamerik into the language of domes-
tic fowls has been followed in France
by number of experiments, conduct
ed by some enthusiastic naturalists, as
to the effects of music on various ami
mails. Apropos of the subject, French
paper calls attention to the fact that
such experiments were tried long ago,
and gives reports of them made as
early as 1869, and printed in the
"Melanges d'Histoire ct de Littera-
ture" by NJ. Vigreul Marville, q
French writer of that time. OF this
mention is made in Lichtenberg's CAL
endar for the year l77S, published in
Goettingen, Germany, where it says
that NJ. Marville, on an estate where
many domestic animals were gathered,
ordered music to be made from a win
dow of the mansion The result was
the following: "The cat paid no at
tention whatever to the tunes. The
dog squatted down, looked up in the
direction of the sounds and evinced
considerable interest for whole hour.
A horse, feeding below the window,
continued picking its hay and looked
up for little whenever it had its
mouth well filed. An ass seemed not
to be disturbed in the least. Passing
cattle stopped for a moment, looked
up, and trotted on as if fully aware Of
what it all meant The birds IN the
cages nearly perished from incessant
singing, but the cock only continued
courting his hens, while the latter ap-
peared only intent on scratching. -

In the Panhandle of Texas the
rabbits are very nearly as much Of a

The hunters separate very much as
in a fox hunt and, going in circle,
meet a short distance below the base
of the triange, beating the grass as
they CO. Then, closing in, they
drive the raj bits into the triangle,
and the animals suspect no danger
until they are huddled together at

for two or three thousand to be killed

citing one. as the animals are exceed

There are different designs, OF
course, not only for the buttons oi
the army, the navy and the marine
corps, but for Che different branches
of the service. There are the infan-
try, artillery and cavalry buttons, the
engineers button, the ordnance corps
button, the button of the marine
corps and the navy button. The navy
button, by the way, is made in Eng
land, because no American manufac-
turer has been able to make bronze
which the sea air will not tarnish. All
of these buttons the army and navy
tailor must keep on hand and sew on
according to regulation.
1t is not often that an officer is
transferred from one branch of the
service to another, SO he does not
often change his buttons, but passing
from one grade to another he frequent
ly has to have their arrangement AFTER
ed. This is one of the smaller expen-
ses incidental to change in rank. In
the navy every change in rank means
a new shoulder strap, which costs So.
Every additional stripe on a coat
sleeve costs So, aud as there are three
uniform coats in every outfit, the
stripes add S15 to the cost of being
promoted. A change in the bar on
an epaulette costs from SO & S4. For
every two grades, new full dress
belt must be bought at cost of $40.
The gold lace on full dress suit will
not last more than five years and it is
renewed at cost of S15.
The glory of gold lace and gilt but
tons is gratifying, but it is expensive.

sewage in villages.

In the course OF an excellent arti-
Gle on sewage, in the Century Col
George T. Waring, jr, says;
The method Of disposal by irriga-
tion or filtration is an extremely
flexible one. 1t is susceptible OF

able for a great variety OF circum-
stances, and Tor wide range Of soil
and of surface conformation.
IL is luallY available for a siugle
house, for a village, or for a town,
and its processes are so nearly auto
matte that its use on small scale
entails no material cost or care in
maintenance. With small area for
surface distribution near the house,
it is only necessary to provide a sim
pie intermittent flush. tank, with an
outlet that can be changed TO either
OF the two or three alternate sections
into which the area is divided, each
large enough to absorb a few hundred
gallons of water. Little attention
will be needed beyond the periodic
directing the flow to one section or
to the other 1t is desirable that
this ground should be withdrawn
from full sight, but only for esthetlc
reasons; there will be no odor
In like manner the sewage from a
large hotel, or from a dozen houses,
or from a village or a town, may be
controlled with only such increaseIof
cost and attention as the larger SER
vice entails. The important recent
Improvements in methods of applica-
tion have been in the direction Of
simplicity, and the following facts
are now fully established:
]. House drainage is practically
odorless when first produced. IL
does not become offensive unless re-
tanned until 1t putreties-only after
day or more.
:. If applied when fresh to the
surface of suitable ground its water
is removed in condition fit even for
safe drinking, and its impurities are
completely destroyed, both in winter
aud summer, without offense or dan
ger Of any kind.
In short, the bugbear OF sewage
disposal has been done away with,
and we are now in position to
adopt simple and Objectionable
methods, which will produce per-
tectly satisfactory result in all but
very exceptional cases

A Wonder Of Training.

Nelly is an elephant such as one sees
only once in long time. She is at
present appearing at the Circus REM,
in Vienna, where she produces great
er effect than all the fancy riders and
professors of the haute eeole, be they
beautiful as houris of Mahomet's para
disc
Nelly is certainly wonder of train
ing, for two years ago she was running
wild in the iungles of Burmah, and to-
day she can accomplish the most won
derful feats with ease, and apparently
docs them with pleasure.
The viennese say of her that she
does things which we're, ,heretofcrs ss.ls-
posed possible only for those elephants
created by the skillful pencil of Ober-
lander, the amusing artist of Fliegende
Blaetter.
Nelly is accompanied in all her
"numbers" by diminutive Rouma-
nian horse named Bosco. He serves
as the foil to show off the immense
size of the brilliant pachyderm, and
participates in all the dangers of ''fool-
ing with an elephant" with that philo-
sophie air peculiar of his kind.
To see Nelly grayely playing at see
saw with Bosco on a plank specially
prepared for the occasion is sight
never to be forgotten. Anon Nelly
lies down and Bosco jumps over her
mountainous back, while she trumpets
her appreciation of his skill in leaping.
Now Bosco falls as if dead, and Nelly
sets out as if about to step upon and
crush him. But when she reaches her
PROSTATE comrade she gently caresses
him a moment with one ponderous
paw, then steps carefully over him and
proceeds on her way with that naive
air which elephants always assume
when they are showing off.

thinks as much as human being does,
and that she seizes an idea as readily
as any bright ch Id can catch it, - Chi

Amonarch among poisonous snakes
is the enormous hnmandryas, which
grows q be as much as fourteen feet
in length, and is so fierce that it will
sometinies attack and even chase any
one who ventures near its nest. Ma.
tive snake-charmers, who will handle
the fiereest eobras fearlessly, are usual
ly loathEv' touch hamadryas, though
! have occasionally seena large speci-
men Of This yenomous reptile in their
bags. i lays its eggs in heap Of de-
caying leaves, which it rollects for the
purpose, and sits upon the top to keep
off intr'lders. A road through the
Jungle wlll sometimes be closed against
all comers by pair of these snakes,
and woe betide the unfortunate tyav-
eler who stumbles unawares upon the
nest. The hamadryas feeds largely
upon other snakes, but it is fortunate
ly somexhat rare. Curiously enough,
it is not always aggressive. Indeed,
it sometimes happens that it is quite
unwilling to strike. Specifically it
is not unlike harmless rock snake /;
and not Tong ago, in Burmah, man
brought one in from the Jungle and
kept it loose in his house for some
days, ma the impression that it was
one Of fiisse creatures. During the
whole Of its captivity il never attempt
ed to bite anyone, and its captor, who
had been familiarly pulling it about
by the tail, was only apprised of his
mistake BY a forest officer who hap
pened to turn up and who knew a
good deal about snakes. 1t is easy to
imagine the haste with which the anna

Buttons on Military Uniforms.

The inter-relstion of the buttons on
a uniform is just as much matter of
regulation as the cut of coat. The
general wears two rows of buttons on
the breast of his frock coat, twelve in
each row, placed by fours. The dis
tance between the rows is 81 inches
at the top and 81 inches at the bottom.
The lieutenant general is entitled to
only ten buttons in each row, arrang-
en- in upper and lower groups of three
and middle group of four. The ma
ior general has nine buttons in each
row, placed by threes. The brigadier
general eight in groups of twos.
The colonel, lieutenant colonel and
major have nine buttons in each row
arranged at equal distances; the cap
tain and lieutensnts seven buttons in
each row at equal distances.
