-Coppressmnn Hun Favors
Conpcr for Governor.

DIES MONIES, March Ia Special THE
state Board of Control is wrestling with
the problem OF how to escape violation
Of the criminal statutes of Iowa and avoid
subjection to a fine OF $1,000 or more on
account of the highway problem on the
ground purchased for use of the insane
asylum at Cherokee. The board received
bids up to noon today from contractors for
the construction of additions to the hos
pital, to complete it in accordance with the
original plans and these offers are being
tabulated and arranged SO that the board
can consider them intelligently. The work
as planned calls for an outlay OF nearly
$25o,O00 for the completion of the present
buildings, the steam fittings heating plant
and erection OF the minor buildings neccs-
sary for the hospital.
But just before closing the bids the board
made the discovery that IL the contracts
are let for this work a public highway will
be obstructed and under Iowa statutes this
is a criminal offense punishable by a heavy
fine. The old board of trustees merely va
Gated that part of the highway over which
the present buildings have been constructed.
There are other highways crossing the tract
and these must be vacated before the board
can legally proceed with the work in hand.
A resolution was at once prepared and
adopted requesting the city council Of
Cherokee and the Board of Supervisors of
Cherokee county to vacate the highways on
the entire tract and making an offer to
open other and suitable highways for the
use OF the public. Until this is done and
some agreement entered into with the coun-
ell and board in Cherokee county the con-
tracts for the buildings cannot be let and

Tho size of Sound w.rs.-

Lord Rayleigh, in discussing our
ability to tell the direction from which
sound proceeds. calls attention to an
interesting difference between the eyes
and the ears with regard to the size
OF the waves that strike them. The
average wave-length OF light is about
one ten-thousandth of the diameter of
the pupil of the eye. On the other
nand. the waves of sound issuing
from a mans mouth" says Lord Ray
leigh, are about eight feet long.
whereas the diameter OF the passage
of the ear is quite small, and could not
well have been made large multiple
of eight feet" One consequence OF the
minuteness of light-waves in COMPARE
son with the size OF the eyes is that
the lenses Of the eyes are able to con-
centrate rays of light upon the retina
with great efficiency.

Through the insertion OF inductance
coils into the electrical circuit, Profess
sor Pupin, of Columbia University. has
greatly increased the efficiency of long
distance telephony through cables. The
insertion of the coils enables the cable
to transmit 5000 times as much cur
rent as 1t is able to transmit without
them. With an experimental cable
thus provided, 1t has been found pos
sible to carry on conversation dis
tinctly at distance of $50 miles. BY
applying the principle to oceanic ca
bles, 1t Is believed that telephone mes
sages might be sent to and fro across
the Atlantic. 1t would also greatly in
crease the rapidly with which ordi-
nary telegraphic signals can be trans
mitted by cable. The principle is like
wise applicable for extending the range
of telephone communication over aer-
ial wires.
