temperature obtained at the depth of 1850

Among other American experiments of
{nis nature, those made at Wheeling, W.
Va, by Professor William Hallock, of the
United States Geological Survey, are par
tlcularly valuable, on account of the fact
that they were made in a dry well about
3 inches in diameter, 1850 feet deep, and
lined only for the top 1,570 feet. When the
results OF these measurements were ex-
pressed graphically by means Of a care
fully scaled diagram they were found to

The Jews-Harn.

The name iew's-harp is undoubtedly a
mlsnomer, if it is Intended to Indicate any
right Of origin with the Semitic race. He
brew boys probably, Ike BOYS of other
natlonalities. have found delight in the
tWang of this little instrument, but it cam
not easily be shown that its heredity at
taches to any generation of this race.
According to the best investigation. the
name has descended from the French
word ieu, a toy and is a malformation
from the French jeu-trompe, a toy trum-
no means of recent date.
However, 1t come by its date, tic an
old invention. One Pratorjus. away back
in 1919, wrote a book entitled tsOrpano-
graphia," and in it he gives this little in
the name .crembaluIn.,'
There is a small town, Riva, up in the
mountains of the italian Tyrol. which is
said to have manufactured the best Jews
harps, and the first noted performer on
this instrument was named Koch. a Prls-
sian soldier in the army of Frederick the
Great. In later times Kanert. Austen.
and some others made a celebrity for
themselves by using a variety of Jews
harps of different tones. Their perform
ances were 50 remarkable that, like must
cal artists of our own day, they traveled
about Europe giving public concerts with
great success.
But it was left for Karl E~cclenstein in
the early part of this century to lift the
toy. and. by developing its resources, es-
tablished it on a higher plane. Its very
limitsd scale of tone had to be obyiated.
and this he accomplished by means Of &
series of harps Of various sies.-Home
