SWEET SOUNDS A MYSTERY
Remarkable Hindu Musical Instru'
ment Puzzles Those Who Hear Il
for the First Tins.

The Hindus have number OF mu.
steal instruments for which grea!
antiquity is claimed. OF these there
is one that is very curious, not SO
much by reason of its form or struc'
ture, but because Of the fact that it is
played in a very peculiar manner. 1t
is not a stringed instrument. it is not
q wind instrument, and it is not an
instrument Of percussion. it consists
of two small silver trumpets with q
very delicate apparatus within.
When the natives play upon this in.
strument they invariably excite the
greatest wonder in the foreigner, who
is perplexed to determine how the
player produces the sounds, for he
does not place tho instrument to his
lips, but adjusts it to his neck. For
eigners have thought that a player OF
such an instrument must be a ven.
triloquist, employing the trumpets to
convey a false impression.
It appears, however, that the varia.
tons of tone are produced by the
variation in the quantity of air pro.
PEELED through the instrument by the
pulsations Of the neck.
Nothing could be more curious, II
is said. than to witness a performance
upon this instrument and to hear the
soft, sweet, musical sounds that eman.
ate from the silver trumpets.-Har'

stoekers and Feeders.

Chicago, April 5.-Feeder cattle val
ues have followed the course Of fat
cattle trade faithfully, making gain
OF 1905 cents over the reduced values
noted late last week. This advance,
with some portions of the east and
south still inaccessible owing to the
bad condition of the roadways, indi-
Gates that still higher prices might
have been forced had routes to all por-
tionS of the east and south been open
for business. as reports come from
eastern regions that cattle have been
contracted for already 10 go from the
blue grass pastures of Ohio, Pennsyl-
vania and West Virginia at $S@S.50
per hundredweight. and such prices
warrant the buying Of young stuff at
very strong prices.
This bulge in prices puts the general
price list on good to choice feeders
again up to about the best level of the
early trade the week before. but still
hardly as high as in the booming time
around the middle Of March, and the
plain classes are still considerably
cheaper than at that high time.
Best class of feshy. well-bred feed
ers is selling up TO SS.lo@s.25, but not
many feeders of regulation class go
over the IS line, the bulk OF the 700 to
500 pound youngsters of good class
going at s7.65 a $50 and the lighter and
palmer Stockers and medium class
feeders at SIG $50, only a class of light
stun that is very deficient in quality
selling below the 81 line. Even feeding
heifers of a good class are not avail
able under $3.50. and nothing but COM
mon light stock heifers can be secured
down around Sc.
Much improvement has now been
made in shipping facilities. To some
local points they have been unable as
yet to make deliveries. These improved
traffic facilities and the much lighter
weeks supply. together with the strong
advance in the beef cattle trade, have
been strengthening factors.

Good Year On Peninsula

The report OF Frank J. Williams

liabilities of the concerns that iail-
ed were S542,0I7.4o as compared
with S3I0,10I, the figures OF the
concerns that failed in 1911. The
assets amounted to S36o,23O q as
compared with $I64,263 Tor the de-
funct companies OF the previous

The report shows that thirty
seven firms doing business in Del
