A noise-proof house has been provid-
ed by DIR. Samuel>J. Jones through the
application of a novel invention 90 his
residence as a protection to himself
and his family against the street dins
that persist, I'm violation of the anti
noise ordinance, says the Chicago Tri-
bune.
The doctor has thrown his house
open for inspection. suggesting that
many people contemplating moving on
account of intolerable noises might re-
main where they are by emulating his
plan.
The apparatus which admits air into
the Doctors house. but which. he says.
excludes noises. is an invention OF his
own, resulting from months OF effort to
find means To procure quiet In his
home.
The plan. as described by DIR. Jones.
Is merely the stuffing up OF all cracks
and apertures I'm the house which
might admit sound, with a material so
constructed as TO AFFORD access OF air
while shutting out noise. The material
which DIR. Jones says discriminates be-
tween noise and air is I'm the form OF
strips OF rubber. perforated with zig
gag holes. Through this the air Is ad-
mitted. while the noise, ii is said. Is
softened. or completely deadened, the
sound waves dying out In repeated re-
fiections in the crooked passages. These
strips OF rubber DIR. Jones has placed
over all cracks around the doors and
windows OF his house. and two months
experience with the plan has convinced
him. he says, of its practicability.
DIR. Jones explained that in his ef-
forts TO procure residence impervious
to street noises he had moved so fire.
auently. without success. that he finally
decided 10 construct noise-proof
house.
Now. after my family has gone to
bed you couldn't hear a steam whistle
blowing in front of my house." said DIR.
Jones. "The house is as quiet az a
graveyard. / experienced some diff
ficulties at first in effecting complete
protection from outside noises. I
either had to endure the noises to get
fresh air or to enjoy quiet without air.
Now. I am enabled to get tho air with
out the noise for the plan works per-
fectly."

COMMITTEE NOT DISCHARGED
MIR. Garvin OF Cumberland moved
that the committee on special legisia-
tion be discharged from further con-
sideration OF the act TO limit the labor
OF street railway employees To 10 hours

cident which occurred on Sunday last
might be traced TO overwork upon the
part OF employees of the railroad. His
present bill. he said, provides that four
sets OF men should run two cars, IN
stead OF three sets OF men for two cars,
as at present Is the rule.
Mr. Sheffield of Newport. chairman or
the committee on special legislation,
said that he did not object to discharg-
ing the committee from further con-
sideration of the bill. but he believed
that Mr.. Garvin had made a speech in
relation to- the accident for the sake
OF political capital alone.

ployed by the company was notified. He
kept a close watch upon the men until
this morning. when they were detained

Two watchmen are employed on the
boat. but no one saw the men take the
valise and travelling bag. The theft
was accomplished by pulling open n

fastened. and then withdrawing the
articles which were in close proximity
TO the window.
The police believe that Sullivan
planned the theft and used the team
ster. who was slightly under the in

Very few persons aboard the boat

pany's place on Westminster street in
the same condition as before a fire
there last January.
Mr.. Holmes says there is $3.50 due

before the fire and that he let the
plumbing part of the work 10 Mr..
Holmes for $3.50. Any other money due
was for work ordered by l.. A. Tilling-
hast and for work that did not go to
the benefit of the Paine estate.
Plaintiffs witnesses denied that any
or the plublbing work was done under
orders from Mr.. Tillingnast, and were
sure Mr.. Pierce ordered il ALL Among
the points in controversy was one as TO
who was responsible for the putting U
OF new coffee urns and lining in Ice

Lloyd A. Tillinghast said Mr..
Holmes was familiar with the plumb
ing OF the building burned as he had
done the work before and his contract
was to put the premises back IN the
condition they were ~ before the fire.
Mr.. Tillinghast said he or lerel consid-
erable work and supposed the l.. A.
Tillinghast Catering Company would
have to pay for the same. Plaintiff ask
ei the witness for money ana witness

ira work done. Mr., Tillinghast consid-
cred his company owed Holmes for the
work.
