Tod Sloane's gameness will never be
questioned by those who saw him win a
race on Walter in nose finish at the
old East st. Louis track some years
ago. After the race Tod was hardly able
to dismount. Then it was learned that
he had broken an arm in the race. II
seems that he was crowded against the
fence in jam around one of the turns
and broke his arm. Switching the reins
to his good arm, he rode the race out
with great determination, putting up a
Garrison finish" and winning on the
post by the narrowest possible margin.
1t was an exhibition of gameness the
like of which was never before heard OF
in the history of the American turf.

INDIAN SIGNAL SERVICE.
they Have Long TeIephoned by the
Use of Drums.

Travellers in uncivilized countries
have often wondered how some savage
tribes were able to transmit news for
hundreds of miles with no apparent
facilities for doing so. An interesting
light is thown on this subject by Jose
Bach, who tells of the means by which
the Indians on the Amazon communi-
cate with each other at distance. The
natives live in groups of 100 to 200
persons in settlements half mile or u
mile apart In each dwelling there is a
wooden drum, which is buried for half
its height in sand mixed with frag-
ments of wood, bone and mica, and has
a triple diaphragm of leather, wood
and rubber When this drum is struck
with wooden mallet, the sound travels
far and is distinctly heard in the other
drums in the neighboring dwellings.
1t is beyond doubt that the transmits
sion of the sound takes place through
the earth, since the blows struck are
scarcely audible outside of the houses
in which the Instruments are placed.
After "malocea, or dwelling, has
been "called up by an initial blow
conversation is carried on between the
two drums. Mr.. Baoh's explanation is
that the communication is facilitated
by the nature of the ground, the drums
doubtless resting upon one and the same
stratum of rock, since transmission
through ordinary alluvial earth could
not be depended upon. This method
furnishes an ingenious modification of
the process employed by Indians for
perceiving distant noises, such as the
gallop of a horse, which consists in APP
plying the ear to the earth. st. Louis
