Musical Instruments u( Aluminium.
The use of aluminium is becoming
common. In Austria-Hungary a short
time ago the metal was introduced into
the army. The bund of the Third regi
ment of infantry (the Archduke
Charles' regiment) used it in the manu
facture of drums, discarding the old
fashioned brass metal. The instru
ments have a neat appearance and are
much lighter; and, according to ex
perts, their timbre is more melodious.
The1 regiment bands in garrison at
Vienna have also received the alum
inium drum. It is slated that this new
ly improved drum will shortly be sup
plied to all the bands in the Austrian
army. Perhaps in the near future the
trombone and all other instruments
now wholly made of brass will give
way to aluminium.
The b laughter of Elephant.
In Berlin a number of African travel
ers, colonial politicians and scientific
men have formed a ''committee for the
purpose of taming and preserving the
African elephant." It is computed, ac
cording to statistical data of the ex
ports of ivory, that no fewer than from
fifty to sixty thousand elephants in
Africa are killed every year. The com
mittee say, that being so, the time is
not far djataot when the last . elephant
in Africa will, says the London
Daily News, have disappeared. With
such prospect in- view, the committee
have decided to put a stop to this mis
chievous slaughter. By taming and
maintaining the last representatives of
a fast-dying-out animal world the com
mittee hope to preserve unimpaired the
enormous power the elephant is known
to possess, so that he may be of still
further use to mankind. The German
Colonial company have already devoted
a large sum of money to this purpose,
and now the colonial department of the
foreign office have augmented this sum
br granting a liberal allowance.
