TT beats me-" Superintendent Woods
finally said. but the buzz-buzz-buzz
went right along Hours after the
senate adjourned last night the search
went on; It was given UP at midnight.
Bright and early today the buzz-buzz-
buzz still was heard and the search
was resumed
Apparently it's on the Democratic
side Of the chamber" superintendent
Woods experts told him in the hearing
of Senator Dubois of Idaho.
Don't you believe II, Woods. There
are no bees, presidential or otherwise,
buzzing on this side" Senator Dubois
said.
Found by sharp-Eared Page
Finally the pages arrived and began
filing the copies of the Congressional
Record on the senators desks.
i've got IT," yelled a sharp-eared
youngster
BE careful It don't sting YOU" yelled
the searchers as they swarmed about
the boy
ITS in the desk--senator Pettus
desk" he yelled
Senator Pettus' desk was opened and
the cause of the buzzing was found
The Senator's new hearing machine"
works with n small electric battery
After taking 1t off the senator, in put
ing it in his desk, had placed the re-
ceiver in contact with the battery,
creating q circuit. This caused the
buzzing, which had gone on for twenty
four hours
Senator Pettus is as pleased as a boy
with red-top boots. The hearing ma
chine" works on the principle of all
acousticon. There is highly sensitive
receiver about the size of silver dol
lar. which is pinned on the lapel of the
coat, connected by fine wires with the
receiver, which is much like that used
In the case Of the telephone. There
are two ear-pieces. The wires go up
under the wearers arms, out at the
back of the neck and branch out to the
ear-pieces which are on steel head
piece. The frames of the headpiece are
no larger than the frames of the sem
ator's steel spectacles, and when ne is
wearing both 1t looks as though he had
steel hoop around his head.
Senator McEnery of Louisiana, who
is very deaf loaned the outfit to SEN
ator Pettus to try. Senator Pettus was
so pleased that when he went to re-
turn 1t to Senator McEnery the latter
! told him to keep it.
