HUGE MUSICAL INSTRUMENT.
Harp Made in an open Lot Why It
Was Cun-t ruCte ed.

count, was constructed in an open lot
instead of in harp factory. 1t was
most simple in construction. consisting
of fifteen wires strung tightly between
two poles. These wires were OF differ
cnt sizes the largest being one sixth
of an inch in diameter and the smallest
oue-twelfth of an inch. They were
stretched north and south and inclined
in such a manner as to form an angle
of from 20 to 80 degrees with the hort-
zon. This queer instrument was not
intended as an exaggerated toy, hut
was constructed for the express pur-
pose Of foretelling changes in the
weather. which were calculated by
Prof. Veritan according to the different
tones the instrument made when tie

fish which rushes at the paddles of

years travellers had heard about this
fish from the natives, but Mr., ]. E. S.
Moore appears to have been the first
European to see it. During his recent

Carne was secretary.
Mr.. l. Eichberg. chairman of the

to make in reference to the proposed

if an excursion were given it would be
best to give it from Harrisonburg to
this city and show the Valley people
the advantages Of trading in Alexandria.
Mr.. May thought if an excursion WEI Q
to be given it was time the league was
taking action in the matter.
On motion of Mr.. VIM. F. Carne it
was determined that should the commit
tee having the matter in charge decide
upon an excursion it should be from
Harrisonburg to Alexandria.
The time for the excursion was then
discussed and several suggestions were
made bat definite action was postponed
until the committee having the matter
in charge was ready to report.

CASES DISMISSED. -Thprston John
son, Frank Foster, John Lully, John
Clark and John Gamble, charged wi h
being connected with tho running OF q
gambling house in Rosslyn, were dis.
missed by Justice Birch yesterday after
noon. Each Of the FIVE defendants was
dismissed from custody, aud the per-
soma! bonds of three commonwealth
witnesses, Claude Edward Jones, JOS.
McCann and John G. Hayden, in the
sum OF $500, declared forfeited. The
cases were dismissed for want OF prose-
cution. They were the outcome Of a
raid made by Sheriff Palmer about a
month ago upon al alleged gambling
resort known as the white House"
at the south end of the AQueduct
bridge, opposite Georgetown. All the
defendants, with their witnesses, were
on hand at the appointed hour, 3
o'clock, whish was the time set at the
request Of both parties. Messrs. John
II. Greene and S. G.. Brent appeared
for the several defendants, and Mr..
johnson was present to represent the
commonwealth.
Mr.. Greene came armed with large
bundle of papers, which he exhibited
to the court, and which proved to be
the court records which he had agreed
to produce. They showed various counts
against the defendants. When the
hour of o'clock arrived and the com
monwealth's witnesses did not put in
an appearance, Justice Burch called
the cases. The defense appeared
ready for trial. Mr.. Johnson made q
motion for postponement on the
ground that his witnesses were not
present. Mr.. Greene and Mr.. Brent,
for the defense, both argued against
the motion, and it was denied by the
court. The cases were then formally
dismissed and the personal bonds of
the complaining witnesses declared
forfeited. Judge Yarrell, of the Citi-
zens' League was not present.
A new warrant was sworn out for
the arrest of John Clark, and his case
will be called Thursday.
