STARS SING TO EARTH.
Electrician Claims invention to Transit
Music of Planets.
Chicago Tribune.

'lliCdSO lIlOHllt.
New York.-Music from the
the stars! captured melodies from
the planets! Prof. C. Albertson. an
electrical engineer whose invention
OF the so-called magnet train
created q sensation in scientific cir
c,es few months ago. has invent
vd an instrument which he believes
is the keynote OF ultimate connuni-
cation between the planets.
Light rays are the media for
bringing communications with the
stars into Prof .AlbertSon'S hands.
From the new invention the music
and original melodies and harmon
les OF the stars may be extracted as
we'll as others sounds no mortal
ever heard before. Light rays
from the sun. moon. or from the re-
noteSt visible star in space may be
so utilized as to play the music of
mortal composers in few weeks.
.AlbetrSon saws he will have his eN-
periments brought to such a de-
gree of perfection that he will give
a midnight concert at his home for
scientists and the press.
1t is scientific fact" said Prof.
!Albertson today. that a light ray
falling upon the surface of a small
polished steel plate for example will
produce a tone. Graham Bell long
ago demonstrated that a light ray
may be used as conductor to car

merely follows out this line OF
thought. I believe Messages from
Mars will soon be reality.
A tone produced from a light
ray falling on polished steel plate
is inaudible. however. unless the
plate is inserted into An electric cir

Instead OF plate or hollow steel

number of small steel cylinders
varying in length, perfectly polish

box as to yibrate freely. The EN-
tire box is made part Of the cleo
tric circuit and in this circuit Is also
microphone or earpiece.
In front OF the cylinder is re-
volving disk which is so perforated
that a light ray will be thrown in
different directions when passing
through small holes. There is a
prism fixed behind revolving disk
