TELEPHONE VIBRATIONS.
Lengthy investigation Thows Light on
Cause of Disturbing Noises.

r. Kempf-Hartmann published recently
the results of a lengthy investigation OF
the vibration OF telephone membranes, un-
dertaken with a view to clearing up the
disturbing noises attending the telephone
transmission of sound. The telephone prob
lem is that Of receiving a series of varia-
lions of the density Of the air at one point
and faithfully reproducing them at another
point. The practical solution is somewhat
Indirect, and consists in converting che
changes of density into vibrations of an
elastic disk and producing them by electro-
This introduces complicat tons due to the
natural vibration of the disk such as would
not exist If the transmitter were, say, a
small gas jet. whose variation with the
a selimum cell. The author recorded the
vibrations of a telephone diaphragm by
means of a mirror stuck to it, and an ar
rangement of an are light, a point dia-
phragm, a system of lenses and a revolving
cylinder. of sensitive film,
The first point investiga ted was whether
a note received by the diaphragm gives rise
to a corresponding series of vibrations of
the diaphragm at once. or whether the Il
brations only gradually fell in with those
of the air. The Photographic traces of n
tuning fork note show that the reaction Is
practically instantaneous, the period of
l%atency" not exceeding 0000 of a second.
The maximum amplitude is attained as
soon as two full periods have passed
through. After that the curve for a con-
slant sound remains remarkably steady.
When the note ceases the proper Vihra-
ton Of the diaphragm persists long enough
to be seen or even heard, but it Is greatly
damped by a rubber plug attached to the
centre Of the diaphragm. 1t also appears
that the overtones which produce the rat
Ting and gathering noises In the telephone
are the more prominent the greater the
amplitude Of the diaphragm. This is con-
trary TO what happens in reeds and strings.
where the fundamental note becomes more
prominent the greater the force with which
the note Is sounded.
AS regards the comparative constituencies
of the eve and ear, the author mentions
that, generally speaking, the records show
however, the records show a number OF
details which are quite beyond the percep-
ton OF the ear. He gives some interesting
curves representing vowels and consonants,
which are reproduced with the finest detail.

BREEDING FAST HORSES.
A Judge Points Out Some Current Mis-
takes on the subject.

For a good many years past the readers
OF turf Journals have been deluged with
all kinds of literature and arguments
claiming to establish the fact that "the
only way TO produce champions Is to breed
the CHAMPIONS and that in breeding race
horses the rule that like begets like is
i~nfexible. and hence that no one who
does not possess the sagacity and means
to breed the most fashionable and high
priced sires need never expect to be
known as the breeders of sensational race
horfes. The records show that the con-
ter sion is more plausible and forolble from
a theoretical than a practical Standpoint
Since Lady Suffolk achieved the dlstinc-
ton Of trottings a. mile in harness below
2;3O in 1S45. many gentlemen Of wealth
and prominence have established great
breeding plants where they have aecumu-
lated at vast expense the best bred ami
mails in supposedly speed producing lines
that money could buy, and yet of those
holding world s records on the trottipg
turf since the advent Of Lady Suffolk 10
the present time a large majority were
bred by those in humble walks Of life, and
were by sires and out of dams who had
not prior 10 those productions been con-
sidered as possessing the fashionable speed
producing blood lines Of the day.
The lessons 20 be drawn from the above
facts constitute a most interesting chapter
to those engaged in the Undertaking OF
solving the breeding problem, That TO
produce race horses of the highest class
REQUIRES blood lines Of superior quality Il
not open to doubt. The blood which will
best infuse with a stallion Of excellence
Is lust as liable to flow through the vein
of a well-bred family mare owned by one
who has never given the subject Of breed
ing any attention as il is through tue
veins of a high-priced fashionable bred.
and therefore 1t Is that a man in moderate
circumstances having a well-bred mare OF
good quality should not hesitate about
breeding her TO a stallion possessing Ike
qualities Judge p. Nj. Babeock in August
