The Humming Of Telegraph Wires.

You have all heard the humming
and singing OF telegraph and tele-
phone wires "a you passed the poles
along the streets. No doubt You have
concluded that it is caused by the ac-
ton Of the wind on the wires, and
given 1t 10 further thought. But II
is not true that the singing is caused
by the wind, and, If you are at all OBJ
serving, you will notice that often the
humming sound is TO be heard these
cold winter mornings when the smoke
from chimney goes straight up until
it is lost in the clouds, aud when the
frost on the wires is as fuzzy and thick
as a roll OF chenille fringe.
The wind has nothing to DO with
the sound, aud according to al Aus

When this humming has been go
