SOBS FROM THE EARTH.
Wpilinpa From Within When the Land
■> Tramblea In Haiti.
Earthquake sounds have been va
riously described and might be ex
pected to differ widely according
to circumstances and locality. The
island of Haiti, which is situated in
a neighborhood where the earth is
in continual state of tremor, is visit
ed by a peculiar earthquake sound
which is locally called the “gouffre,”
and an account of it appears in the
Bulletin Semestriel of the Port au
Prince meteorological observatory, j
The region of the “gouffre” is in
the mountain range of La Selle,
which is about 7,000 feet high and
which, unstable still, gives much
evidence of past volcanic activity.
The sounds are apparently the same
as those accompanying noticeable
earthquakes,' and the name “gouf
fre” is applied to both. Its noise!
extends sometimes over periods of:
weeks, and the vicar of Croix-des
Bouquets, fifteen miles north of j
the mountain range, gives the fol
lowing description of it:
“During the day the sound was ;
heard from the southeast and seem-;
! ed to come from a great depth. It j
was like a deep roaring and then ;
at times like the howling of a dog. j
From time to time it stopped with j
a hollow boom which might he tak
en for a distant cannon shot.
‘ During the night it was different,
although the sound came from a
different direction. There was a
perfect tumult, rumbling of thun
der, howling and a sound like the
rushing of a strong wind. There
was no wind, however. Sometimes
; one heard all the noises at once,
j Generally and above all, from 7 to
10 o’clock at night, the sound end
1 ed with a loud detonation, much
; stronger than in the day, followed
i by a long echo. Then again would
; be heard an outburst that cannot
! be imagined. It was as if a monn
; tain of glass were shattered and
i the noise echoed in all directions.
! “At times it seemed as if one
| could hear the dull roar of the surf
i or even the dull thud of objects
falling, such as blocks of stone roll
ing down precipices.” As the vicar
observes when these phenomena oc
curred at night there was something
very sinister about them. They are
not confined to the La Sclle range,
i but are heard in other parts of the
j island. They are being carefully
I studied, and, though the inhabitants
| sometimes associate the sounds with
i hurricanes, it seems well established
that they are not heard during
: storms unless an earthquake hap
| pens to occur.
Couldn’t Controvert This Proof.
i The rending class was in session
and the word “furlough” occurred.
! Miss Thatcher, the teacher, asked
j ii' any little hoy or girl knew the
j meaning of the word.
; One small hand was raised and
1 shaken vigorously.
i ‘•Furlough means a mule," said
the child.
“Oh, no, it doesn't,” said the
teacher.
i “Yes, ma am,” insisted the little
! girl. “L have the hook at home that
says so.”
Miss Thatcher told the child to
bring the hook to school. The next
morning the child came armed with
a hook and triumphantly showed
a picture of an American soldier
riding a iiiulo. under which was
printed:
“Going home on liis furlough.”—
New York Post.
First Newspaper.
j The Acta Diurua (Acts of the
Day), instituted by Julius Caesar,
j comes about as near being the first I
j newspaper as anything we can find.
| There was an otlicial editor, and the
! gazette was exhibited daily in pub
I lie. It was copied bv scribes, who
| sold it to their customers. The
Acta contained announcements or
decrees by the government, notices
relating to the courts and other
matters of public interest, such as
! births, marriages and deaths. It
j had a wide circulation and in many j
J ways fulfilled the office of a regu-;
lar newspaper.—New York Ameri-'
j can.
Taking a Mean Advantage.
j On moving into a new neighbor
j hood the small boy of the family
! was cautioned not to fight with his
new acquaintances. One day Tom
my came home with a black eye and
badly bespattered with mud.
i “Why, Tommy,” said his mother,
“didn’t I tell you not to fight until
you had counted 100.”
“Yes’m,” sniffled Tommy, “and
look what Willie Smith did while I
was counting.”
