One of the most curious Instruments
which the development Of electrical
science has brought into being Is the
microphone. IL embraces within itself al
most the whole principle of the modern
telephone. and with II may be performed
a series OF experiments which aside from
being interesting. are wonderfully signif-
cant OF what We may expect from its
development in the near future. BY It's
aid the footsteps of "A fly walking on the
stand on which II Is placed are clearly
heard. and give the sensation Of a horses
tread and even a fy's scream. especially
at the moment Of death. Is easily audible.
The rustlng Of a feather or piece OF
dress goods on the board OF the instru-
ment, and completely inaudible under or
binary circumstances, are distinctly heard
in the mlcrophone. The ticking OF a
watch Is rendered very loud at quite a
distance from the receiver. a musical
box placed In connection with the instru-
ment transmits so much sound as To
render IL impossible TO distinguish ind-
vidual notes a current of air blown
sharply on the instrument sounds like
distant trickle of water. And the rum
bling OF a carriage outside the house Is
transformed into a very intense cracking
noise. not unlike the sound Of the burning
Of pine logs.
The instrument in appearance assumes
various shapes. inasmuch AS .fc very
simplicity of its principle admits Of its
being made Of various substances and in
almost any form. AL that is necessary
for its simple working is In having what
is known, technically. as loose contact
that is. an electric circuit whose con-
tinuity at some point IL capable of being
varied. AS an instance, then. three nails
make one Of the best microphones. Two
Of the nails are laid on board parallel
TO each other and say one-half inch apart.
The other nail is laid across the first two,
the latter being mean time connected TO
a battery cell and telephone receiver.
II a fly for instance, be confined in
small box, and the latter placed on the
board on which the nails are laid. the
slightest vibration caused by the move
ments of its feet will render the unstable
contact Of the nails still more unsteady,
and by thus altering the force or amount
OF the electricity which passes. will repro
duce in the telephone receiver an exact
but much magnified fac-simile of what
is taking place in the box.
