ITS MUSIC
HEARD FOR
MILES
Van Brunt's Organ So Loud
That People Flee From Its
Tremendous Melody.

watertown, ~. Y, May 4--The loud
est musical instrument In the world is
slowed away among the cobwebby old
contents OF a storehouse in Anthony
street here. II was invented and built
by Peter w. Van Brunt, who died here
last week and was christened by him
the "Organum Foghornum"
The idea was suggested by huge
twenty-foot tin horn that the inventor
saw in a Fourth of July parade forty
years ago. and while visiting the Thou
sand Islands In the summer OF 1870 he
determined that he would make n mann
moth organ. which. placed at some com
manding point on the Islands, would fur
nish music and entertainment for cot
tagers along the ST. Lawrence for miles.
A year later the big organ was fin
ished The frame work was six feet
long. three feet wide and four and q half
feet high. The bellows was four feet
long and two feet wide. with a rise Of
seven inches. There were fifty pipes.
the longest being nine feet. and they
were voiced under sixteen Inch pressure,
water gauge The construction was at
tended with the greatest difficulty. and
many experiments were tried before the
sixteen-inch pressure was produced.
Mr.. Van Brunt set up his organ In the
city band rooms. but its tones we're so
deafening that II had to be removed to a
larger place. He gave a dedicatory con-
cert In Washington hall. accompanied by
band OF twenty-four pieces. but the
band was drowned out and the audience
fed to escape the tremendous volume Of
sound.
Then Mr.. Van Brunt, finding no suit
able habitation for his big music maker.
set II up In the public square, and all
day long on July 4. 1871 II played patri-
otic airs that were heard and enjoyed at
the village OF Carthage. sixteen miles
away. The people Of peighboring VIII
lagos and the surrounding country came
focking to the town to see what manner
OF instrument was making the powerful
music.
The organ has been heard not more
than a half dozen times since then. its
owner not caring TO tour the country
with It, and there being no proper place
in Watertown to keep IT with a roof over
its head. 1t Is still the loudest wind In
strument In the world.
Mr.. Van Brunt belonged to one OF the
Oldest and wealthiest families OF Bergen
county. N. j.. later lived in New York,
was a soldier in the civil war. married
Miss Helen Mundy OF this city, and came
here to live. He was a musical COM
poser OF ability.

Making and Keeping Soup Stock.
Invariably the housewife who has
reputation for fine soups is the one
who supervises the food left from each
meal and sees that no bone, unless
burned in the broiling; no scrap of
meat, not the least bit Of vegetables,
is wasted. All these she uses in her
soup kettle This indeed is thu French
woman's secret, and she helps it out
with judicious seasonings. For the pur-
pose piece Of the shin of beef, with
the bone which contains the marrow;
O knuclle of veal for additional gela-
tin and the cold meat and bones which
have been saved should soak in cold
water for half On hour or so and then
be brought very slowly to simmer.
When the meat Is cooked to shreds and
the knuckles fall apart 1t Is time to re-
move the kettle. Many persons season
the stock while 1t Is cooking, but this
practice has its disadvantages. In the
first place, vegetable juices Will cause
1t to sour much more readily; besides,
once it has been seasoned it is impos-
sible to vary it so decidedly. Then, too,
in the daily scaldlng Of the stock,
which Is necessary If the fat Is re-
moved from the top, much Of the flavor
is lost in steam. 1t Is an excellent plan
to fill stone crooks, each holding
enough for one days supply, to let the
cake Of grease form upo9 them and
when they are entirely cold to cover
them and place them in the refrigera-
tor. Undisturbed and in a cool place
the stock will keep for two weeks.

AUGUSTA, CA

admitted by medical men throughout
the West Indies. The rays of the
moon in the. tropics are very much
more powerful than they are In more
northern cities, and anybody with
good eyes can read newspaper by
the light of the full moon.
Mr.. Hesketh Bell, British official
who has governed several West In
dian islands, and therefore speaks
with some authority, declares that the
moon has a far greater influence on
agriculture and vegetation in the
tropics than in the temperate zone.
He says that seeds planted within
three days before or after the full
moon rarely come to anything good.
Bamboos or other trees cut down at
the wrong phase of the moon rapidly
crumble to dust, while the same tim
ber, felled at the right time, lasts at
least three times as long. Indian corn
sown at the full moon rarely produces
anything, and vegetables run to leaves
and yield little or no fruit.
The average West Indian planter
goes a great deal further than this,
and is apt to regulate almost every
thing he does by the phases OF our
satellite. A planter in Grenada never
has his hair cut except at the full
moon, and the same superstition pre-
walls among the negro peasantry in
Jamaica.

METHODS OF WEARING WIGS.
New York Politician Whose Variety
Allows an Occasional Hair Cut.

There are not many ways in which
women have a marked advantage over
men, but the conditions for them are
much more satisfactory when they
reach, as some of them occasionally
do, the wig age. AT the halfway sta
ton they are to be pitied. A slightly
bald head is a distinction for man,
while-well, it is condition in a wo-
man not to be considered. But when
it is necessary to obtain wig the
long hair worn by the woman which
is massed in soft, fluffy ways around
her face conceals. the point of connec-
ton, she can wear her hair-hers by
purchase, if not by birth-in as many
styles as she likes and no one need
be the wiser as to how she came by it.
With man it is different, and if he
does not show to the interested pub
lie head of hair which actually grows
he is not in position to conceal the
fact that his head covering is an In
yestment 1t is this artificial hair
growing which makes mans outlay
In wigs larger than that of a woman.
A wig with long hair is expensive, in
the first place, and certain shades and
colors are more costly than others, and
a fine quality costs more than an in
ferior, but that is equally true with
hair put into the mans wig.
There is a prominent New York man,
one well known in State politics, who
has worn a wig for many years, and
probably not one of his most intimate
friends who have not been informed
of the fact knows it. Wigs are so well
made now that there would be but lit
tie danger of discovery except for the
permanent style of the ordinary wig
worn by the ordinary man. Every hair
lies always in exactly the same posi-
ton. it is combed in the same way, and
Is always the same length. But that
Is not the wig of the statesman.
To give the growing effect he wears
a succession of wigs When he comes
apparently from the hands of the hair
dresser. This has close cut, and
seems to be exactly what it looks. AS
the days 90 by the hair grows gradu-
ally that is, one wig is exchanged for
another and then another, until, as
the time goes on, the politician re-
marks that it is the day for another
hair cut, reverts again to the first wig
of the series, which has again been put
in first.class condition by the wigmak-
er, and the deception begins anew

Antique English Furniture.

It is still quite a commo;IA'xperience
to find fine and even va.11Dle sped-
mems Of old English furniture. chiefly
made out Of oak, in the cottages Of the
village folk. These pieces of furniture
have been handed down from genera
ton to generation of rural folk, such
as carriers, keepers, woodmen and shep-
herds How did the family originally
come by them? The explanation Is
this in many cases: Generations ago,
when the furniture, which IS once again
priced greatly, began to go out Of fash
ion and to be superseded by stuff which
we view with contempt nowadays, it
was sold, and farmers bought much Of
it But by and by the farmer, being
prosperous and desiring to be in the
fashion. too, like his landlord, bought
in its place more modern chairs and
furnishings. Then the village folk
bought for a song the despised oak fur
niture, and now once again the old
pieces have come into favor and are
finding their way back from the cot
taga to the hall.
