VIBRATIONS OF TELEGRAPH WIRES.

Some interesting facts are brought ont in a
paper by VI. G. n cscn, of Christlana, on the
impression produced upon animals by the res
ouancc of the vibrations of telegraph wires.
II is found that the black and green wood
pcckers, for example, which hunt for insects IN
the bark and in the heart of dc"aying trees,
often peck inside the circular hole made trans
vcrscly through telegraph posts, generally near
the top. The phenomenon lS attributed I'd the
resonance produced III the post by the vibration
of the wire. which the bird mistakes as the re-
suit of the operations Ol worms and insects IN
the interior OF the post. Everyone knows the
fopdncss of bears for honey # has been no.
ticcd that in mountainous districts they seem
10 mistake the NlbTatOy sound al thc Telegraph
wires for the grateful hummlug of bees ana,
rushing 10 the pos, look about Tor the hlEe'
Not finding il on the post, they scatter the
stones at It's base which hcp to support ,and,ulo-
appointed in their search, give the post a part
ing pat with their paw, thus showing their de-
termination at least To Kill any D'eS thdt
might bc about it. lndi-putabc traces oi bears
about PROSTATE posts and scattered stones prove
that this really happens.
With regard to wolves, again, VI. Nielsen
states that when a vote was asked at the time
tOr the first great telegraph lines, member ni
the ~toithng said that although EIs district
had no direct interest IN the Inc proposed, ne
would give his vote in its favor, because he
knew the lines would drive the wolves from
the districts through which they passed. IL Is
well known that 10 keep of the rNascs oi
hungry wolves in winter the farmers IN Nor
way set up poles connected together 10y a line
or rope under wdlCh the wolves would not
dare 10 pass. And II is a Fact VI. Nielsen
states, that when, twenty or more year, ago,
telegraph lines were carried over the noun
talns aud along the valleys, the wolves totally
disappeared and q specimen l. now a iarity.
Whether the two circumstances are casually
connected VI. Nielsen does not venture To say.
