The "Whis:ling Language"

Some years ago, while roaming
through the mountain ranges Of
Teneriffe, it fell to the writer's lot to
hear the shepherds conversing in the
whistling language which is used BY
the people of Tenerife and Gomera.
Three parties of shepherds were ex-
changing their hopes and fears re-
garding the weather by this means.
On another occasion he heard an in
vitation to a dance sent in the
"whistling language" across a stretch
of country exceeding four miles in
length. The young boys, and even
the girls, are adopts at the elan
guage," and the very sheep appear to
understand whistled commands OF q
considerable distance. By placing
two or three fingers in the mouth, the
whistlers contrive to make the whistle
Gerry to a distance of three miles or
thereabouts. A French savant has
conclusively proved that the whistling
is in Spanish. Easy words are taken,
and the sounds initiated by the
whistlers. The language dates from
1455. Long practice and heredity
have naturally given the shepherds
extraordinary skill, and their vocabu-
larry is now a long one, while in addi-
ton they have a regular code Of
graduated notes, which convey tele-
graphically what they cannot salts
factorily reproduce in the ordinary
manner. Magazine.

Can there be any doubt that automo.

farm wagons, to the incaiculable ad-
vantage of the farmer and of all who
depend upon the farmer? The first
cost is much greater of course than
that of a wagon and team. But SO is
tho first cost of a reaper greater than
that of many ''cradles''-th first cost
of a steam threshing-machine greater
than that Of a harmful Of fails. 1t

PROCEEDINGS IN DETAIL.
Evidence of NJ. BertiIIon ana other
Incidents of the Session.

Evidence of NJ. BertiIIon and Other
Incidents of the Session.
The temperance on the stage of the
court-martial of the properties of M.
Bertillon, the distinguished anthropo-
meter, was the signal of an outburst of
hilarity on the part of the audience.
Before continuing his demonstration
NJ. Bertillon replied to the comments
upon his evidence Friday. In regard to
the prisoners exclamation of: "Oh, the
wretch" the specialist asserted that if
Dreyfus, who had up to that time re-
tanned his self-possession, SO far forgot
himself at that particular point as to
insult the witness, 1t was obviously due
to agitation when he saw his method
of fabricating the bordereaa was dis
covered"
MY extraordinarily ingenious dem
onstration Friday proves the excellence
of my system" added the witness.
M. Bertillon then resumed the ex-
position of the technicalities of his sys-
tenn, passing around charts, plates, etc.
Here followed reenactment of scenes
similar to those of Friday. The prison
er was apparently quite Indifferent to
what was going on and the judges and
counsel alone attempted to follow the
specialist in his interminable cryptic
graphic problems.
The witness was heard to say during
his demonstration:
Court Tires of BertiIlon.
The system I have the honor to ex-
plain to you can easily be carried on
under your eyes, and If you like will
again read the notes.
