SOUND WAVES.
The Way They Are Detected by At
rnospheric Causes


One Of Uncle Sans scientists at
Washington gives an interesting ex-
PLANTATION of the action of the wind in
preventing the spread Of sound toward
the direction from which the wind
comes.
1t is, he claims, not the wind, as
such. that prevents sound from trav-
cling against it. but differences in the
strength OF the wind. If. for instance.
the wind is stronger above than be-
low or stronger q one side, its effect
will be 10 tilt tue sound waves in one
direction or another.
Differences Of temperature in the all
also cause DETECTION Of the waves OF
sound. Other atmospheric causes ex'
ist which defect sound from straight
course aud prevent it from going as
far in certain directions as it may
have been expected TO 90.
Some of the sirens in this country
says the scientist, produce sounds
which ought theoretically to be audible
at a distance Of 1900 miles, but, II
fact the authorities are satisfied Il
they are heard only two miles away
The reason for the discrepancy be
tween calculation and experiment wa:
probably atm ospheric detection of th'
sound.-Minneapol Journal.

THIS LAST DOLLAR"

David Higgins will play an en- gagement atPoli's on Monday even- ing in His Last Dollar" an Ameri- can romance. The piece is under the direction of Messrs Stair and Nicolai, who have provided a beau tiful and picturesque scenic outfit. The story concerns Joe Braxton, who has risen from poor jockey to a Wall street financier. The chief heart interest begins at the time Eleanor Downs, Kentucky lassie, applies to Joe for aid in racing her horse in the Great Futurity, the win ming of which means the saving of her ancestral home. The way in which this brave Kentucky girl saves Joe from financial ruin and gradually and unselfishly opens his eyes to the deceit of the girl he is engaged to marry, even though it reveals unpleasant incidents in her life, and the final meeting of their souls in the bond of love, forms a beautiful thread around which the heart and comedy interest has beer entertainingly entwined.
