This Is a quaint tfpcuklug trumpet with un ob Bcuro early history, dating back to the times of tho KulghtH Templars. In Bhnpo it reneuibles a French horn and 1b more than five feet long, having a belt at tho end of the graduated tube. It wiib formerly six feet In length, but Is now telescoped at the Joints, where the metal has apparently decayed. 'iraOlUon declares It was formerly, sounded rrom too tower to summon aid In case of need, as, when blown at a height, tho weird, deep notes the trumpet produced could be heard a great distance away In bygone dnya. It Is believed that this curious Instru ment has often been used to call to gothe the villagers, thus dispensing with tho usual bell, nnd to give addi tional power and strength to tho choir, being then probably used by tho chief singer, ns tho trumpet Intensifies vocal Bound to u marked degree. llrniieclird For n Day. In the llttlo hamlet of Nordhnstedt, near Mcldorf, a singular custom Is ob served annually. According to tradi tion, It dotca back to tho thirteenth century. During that era the hamlet was on ono occasion attacked by a band of robbers, -and tho men of the village were soon compelled to beat a retreat. Thereupon the women boldly at tacked the robbers and not only van quished them, but also took the leader nnd several of tho band prisoners. Aa a token of their grntltudo tho men have ever slnco allowed the women to celebrate this great event by holding a festival nt stated Intervals, and on such occasions they exercise no au thority themselves, but submit in all thliigB to tho will of the women. Tho latter grcntly enjoy their tem porary supremacy nnd, ns a symbol thereof, never fall to fasten n lursc wooden slipper to every lamp nnd chandelier In the hnmlet. A Uront Stickler For Htlqnettc. Dr. Thompson, mnster of Trinity col lose, CnmbrldKo, wis an excccdiiiKly cold nnd nustore mini, never taking much notice or tho underKraduates un der his cure. On ono occasion a Trln lty man happened to bo out wnlklng nnd wns cnught In a storm. He ran across n field nnd took shelter beneath n large tree. When ho nrrlved there, ho found, to bis horror, that Dr. Thompson wns beneath It seeking pro tcctlou from tho rain. For sonio tlmo both stood silent, watching tho clouds, till nt Inst tho undergraduate, growing desperate, ventured to remark that ho thought It was clearing up a little. "Sir," snld tho doctor haughtily, frowning upon tho wretched youth, "nil communications to tho master of Trinity must bo made through the tutors." Kxehnngo.
