Where Sands Sing

From the Louisville Herald
 In the North African deserts, at some tines of the year, a curious phenomenon can be heard.
 It is the "song of the sands"
 Nc one can say whence this song comes, but it is due to atmospherical conditions.
 There are two distinct sounds-one is like the wind in telegraph poles, the other like the after reyerberation of a big strik- ing clock.
 During the time the 'song of the sands can be heard. some of the sand dunes, when trodden on give out a hollow, bell like sound. And where the surface of the desert is covered with sandstone tink- llng noise is heard when this is trodden on.

 And after that meeting you cut loose frome the 'guide?'
 Yes. answered the witness.
 Counsel for the Steel corporation brought out from Mir. Worth that Judge Gary never attempted to lay down a rule for the rest of the manufacturers. The wit ness said Judge Gary always gave the other men advice, counseliing publicity.
 He never said anything about prices," declared the witness. .sHe would some- times say that it was timeto make con- cession.'
 Another witness of thead day, Charles 8. Trench member of firm of metal brok- CTS and formerly head of the Norristown Tin Plate company. testified that after the formation of the American Tin Plate conn pany, the $46O 000, GOO subsidiary of the al. legged steel trust, 1t was a common experi- ence among independents that they could not buy black plate, as they had previ. ously
