The tricks OF the waits ere even more
apparent in the song 'I've Come Home 20

though It is not safe to prophecy that IL
will last rs long as other numbers in the
play, for its supsrlatively sensuous
phrases must eventually seem mzwkish
and irritating TO the most uncultivated
listener.
The songs assigned to Mr. Harrigan
himself are the weakest in the play, but
that does not prevent tho audiences from
applauding wildly. "Uncle Reilly" IL

or by any other actor than Harrigan.
would not be at all likely to secure rec
ognition. "Mr. McGuinnness from
Troy" is much better, but wofully
suggestive of something else, or
rather OF a great many other light pieces.
Sung spiritedly. with many voices in the
chorus, it has a power of it's own to
cling to mans memory until ''Not for

become lifelong penalty for going to

The Sound Of Thunder.

One of the most terse and suCcinct de-
scriptions OF natural phenomenon is that
recently given by NJ. Him, in which he
says 5cs. the sound which is known as
thunder is due simply to the fact that the
air traverscd by an electric spark-that is,
a hasn of ightning-is suddenly raised to
a very high temperature and has its vol
ume, moreover, considerably increased.
The column Of gas thus suddenly heated
and expanded is sometimes several miles
long, and as theduTation OF the flash ia not
over the millioath of n second, it follows
this the noise bursts forth at once from
the whole column, though for an Observer
ut any Cne place, it commences where the
lightning fash - at the least distance
In precise terms, tie beginning of the
thunder clap gives the minimum distance
o. the lightning, and the duration of the
rolling of the thunder the length of the
column of hestei mir. Professor Him also
remarks that when fash OF lightning
strikes the ground it IS not necessarily
from the place struck that the first noise is
heard.
Again, he points out t!lata ballet whistles
in reversing the air, 50 that we can, to P
certain extent, follow It's fight. TIE same
thing also happens with falling meteor
lie Just before striking the earth. The
noise actually heard has been compared to
the sound protiuced when One tears linen;
1t is due really To the fact that tire air rap
idly pushed on one size Of the projectile in
front, whether bullet or meteorite, quickly
