INDIAN SIGNAL SERVICE.
They Have Long Teiephoned by the
Use NJ Drums.


Use nj Drums.
Travellers in unciyili2ed 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 thrown ON this subject by Jose
Bach, Who tells Of the means by which
the Indians on the Amazon eommuHi-
cate with each other at distance
The natives live in groups of l00 to
200 persons In settlements half n 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 neighburins
dwellings.
1t is beyond doubt that the trans
mission of the sound takes place
through the earth, since the blows
| struck are scarcely audible outside the
! houses in which the instruments are
! placed After "maloeea, or dwelling.
! has been called up" by an initial blow,
conversation is carried on between the
| two drums. Mr. Bach'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 transmits
sion through ordinary alluyial earth
| could not be depended upon. This
method furnishes an ingenious modif-
cation of the process employed by ln-
dams for percelylng distant noises
