the law may require automobile horns to
enrnciate distinctive chords for identifica-
tion or the machine and edification of the
public ear. Low major chords could be as
signed to automobile trucks, the middle
register to taxicabs, minor chords to pri-
vate machines, and so on.
The note Of the aeroplane is at present
about the same as that of the automobile
but no doubt in the future the voice of the
flyer will be differentiated, so that pedes-
TRANS win know whether they are going to

There is a startling engine of war and
anarchistic destruction In the projection of
musical notes tuned to the potential vibra-
tory quality Of buildings and bridges.
Every s ructure has a certain rate of vi
bration. Some Office buildings sway In
the wind six eight inches out OF plumb,
which movement is a factor of safety
rather than otherwise; but If the vibra-
ton were accentuated, the result would
be collapse Of the structures. Soldiers
ana paraders are not allowed to march In
unison across bridges for fear that the
rhythm OF their steps will cause a fatal
vibration. AS the walls of Jericho were
made to fall by the sound OF trumpets,
according TO the Biblical legend, so a mus-
cal note sufficiently reiterated would cause
the downfall Of the Singer Building or the
collapse of the Brooklyn Bridge. The
point is to get a note which comedies with
the note of the structure 1t is designed to
destroy, and the note can be obtained bv
figuring on the dimensions and stresses
Of the structure. Having ascertained the
fatal note to destroy any building in New
York, a military enemy far at sea might
employ the telharrnonic wireless method to
vibrate the structure into ruin. In the
telharmonic system an electric current
causes vibrations in telephone receiver
which correspond to the original impulses
at the other end of the wire thus pro-
ducing sound or music syntheticauy. The
original air vibrations are re-created or
exactly copied by the electric current BY
adapting the system to wireless use and

THE kAISER'S DRINKS.

The Emperor William of Germany like
most hard workers, is extremely abstemi-
Gus. OF the national beverage, beer, he
seldom drinks more than two glasses in
the course of the day. Whiskey he rarely
touches. The chief steward Of the Ham
burg-American steamship Hamburg, on
which his majesty took a trip, says that
he drank one glass of Rhine wine at din
ner. At dinners where the Emperor is the
guest OF honor he allows his glass to be
filled a second time with champagne, but
when the wine is offered him for the third
time he places his hand over his glass TO
show that he does not wish 1t to be re-
filled. In summer he seems to favor a
long drink Of orangeade.-The Gentle

The most likely enemy 10 attack US in

commander all the orchestras and opera

to checkmate the hostile vibrations and
