SPOOKY ACOUSTICS
Of THE HOUSE
LEGISLATIVE WHISPERS ARE
CARRIED TO REMOTE COR.
NERS OF THE HOUSE CHAM.
EER.-CANNOT HEAR SPEAK
Err.
Special to the World.

Special to the World.
Olympia, Jan. 20.-New members
of the house, and not a few old ones,
are expressing their displeasure over
the acoustic properties of the room
in which the house assemblies. Who
ever designed the legislative hall
perpetrated an acoustieal joke. for
nowhere outside of topsy-turvy
house or a midway can be found a
hall with so puzzling and conflicting
echoes
Not alone are the echoes and re-
verberations annoying to the law
makers, but they are debarred from
confidential whispers by reason of
the fact that whispers carry to all
parts of the room, and a person 40
feet distant frequently can hear the
low murmurs more distinctly than he
into whose attentive ears they are
poured.
Frequently a member has a mo-
ment's private conversation with his
colleague in the next chair He ex-
presses his opinion of some other
member or measure of interest to
another in the opposite side of the
house His communication, by a sort
of wireless, goes across intervening
seats and some one member hears
the conversation as plainly as If he
had his ear to a telephone
The conflictior of echoes makes it
utterly impossible for many of the
members to hear what is going on.
The reading clerks voice, try as he
may. is a mere tumble of sounds, and
the speakers rulings are unintei,'-
g.b]e.
All sorts of wire and bunting de-
vices are strung along the walls and
from the ceilings but apparently
they do nothing but vary the vagarie;
OF sound, and the best the members
can do is to grin and bear it.
