Then he drew from the pocket of his

the march, he went over.to the organist
and said:
"What offended my ear was the fact

Sure They were safe.

The method adopted by a rustic look
ing individual to prevent the loss Of his
hat and coat while dining furnished the
patrons of a Market street cafe with
much amusement yesterday. The stran-
ger meandered ~leisurely into the place
during the busy lunch hour and made
his way to the nearest vacant chair.
Producing several yards of Irvine from
his pocket, he removed his hat and
passed the string once around the
crown, making it fast with a double
knot.
This, of course, caused a. number Of
diners to suspend hostilities in order
better to observe the next move, but the
careful stranger appeared oblivious to
the sensation he was creating. Taking
off his coat, he passed the loose end of
the string through one sleeve, and, after
securing the end to his wrist, hung hat
and coat on the rack. Assuring himself
that the knots were firmly tied, the
cautious individual sat down and pro.
oeeded to get away with a substantial
! meal. -Philadelphia Record.

she showed no resentment on the score
Of past unfaithfulness. Pressed by A.,

INDIAN SIGNAL v
They Have Long Telephoned By tn
Use of Drums.

They Have Long Telephoned 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 commune
cate with each other at a distance. The
natives live in groups of 100 to 200
persons in settlements half a mile or a
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 a 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 a "malocca," or dwelling, has
been "called up" by ar initial blow
conversation lie carried on between the
two drums. MI. 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 ap.
plying the ear to the earth.-St. Louis
