Echoes Louder Than Sound.
From Harper's Weekly.

iom weekly
To most persons it would seem impos-
sible for an echo to be louder than the
sound that produced the echo but under
certain rather peculiar conditions this is
really true.
When a revolver is fired from balloon
the report is sharp, but not 50 loud it
would be If the gun were fired on the sur
face of the earth
If the balloon is up something like 2.0oo
feet or higher. there will be a few sec
onds silence after the revolver shot and
then roar or deep rumble will rise up
from the earth.
IL an explosive is lowered from the has
ket of the balloon until it hangs few
hundred feet below and il is discharged
with an electric spark from battery In
the hands of one of the aeronauts. there
will come to the ears of those above
report like a revolver shot and then a few
seconds of silence, followed by peal or
the loudest thunder ever heard.
There is no solid background about or
above the balloonsts to produce a re-
bound of the atmospheric sound wave and
the air is more dense below. Thus. when
the sound waves penetrate the denser
lower strata of air and then the solid
earth, the echo produced seems to the
ears of athe occupants of the balloon far
louder than the original sound.

SAYS He WROTE OF AN
AFFAIR WITH ANOTHER
TO MAKE WIFE JEALOUS
Cassie Admits There Is Nothing
to Story of Holding Wo-
man in Arms.
WANTED RECONCILIATION
Evidence Also to Effect That Wife
Threatened to Stab Him With
Wicked Butcher Knife.

Under the pitiless examination of At
torney John H. McNary yesterday af-
ternoon, Antoine Cassie, the defendant
in a divorce suit brought by his wife,
Mrs. Nera L. Cassie, grudgingly tes-
titled that he had written falsehoods
in letters to his wife for the purpose
of making her jealous Of him and in
ducing her to again love and respect
him, following numerous quarrels which
took place between the couple shortly
after their marriage. Mrs. Cassie is
seeking divorce on the grounds of cruel
and inhuman treatmentl Both parties to
the proceedings are former officials at
the Chemawa Indian Training school.
In the letters introduced as evidence
by Attorney McNary, who represents
the plaintiff, Mr. Cassie told his wife
that he did not want to live with her
any longer; that he was planning to
marry again as soon as he could get
a divorce; that cat the present time
he was holding another woman in his
arms" that he would bring his future
wife to Chemawa and that he hoped his
present wife would not pull her hair and
many other things. Upon being cross
examined by Attorney McNary, Cassie
with downcast face, told Judge Gallo
way that everything he said in his let
ters to his wife were falsehoods and
lies; that he did not mean anything he
wrote and he mentioned the above
things for the sole purpose of making
his wife jealous in the hope that she
would not pay attention to any one else
and that she would return to him and
"obey her marriage VOWS to love and
respect him."

MORE EVIDENCE
REGARDING FUNDS
Witnesses Tell of Contribu-

for His Campaign.
BY JOHN EDWIN NEVIN.
UNITED PRESS LEASED wIRE.l

Albany, N. Y, Sept. 25.-The entire
financial history of William Suffers
campaign for election as governor Of
New York state must be made public,
the impeachment court ruled today.
Every contribution he received and
lie spent must be accounted for. The
governors Judges decided unanimous.
i to hear all the evidence the prosecu-
ton has to offer, whether referred to
in the articles of impeachment or not.
Former President Morris Tekulsky,
Of the New York Retail Liquor Dealers
association, was on the witness stand
when the decision to throw the case
wide open to the prosecution was
reached
Tekulsky had been asked question
concerning contribution said to have
been made by the liquor dealers asso-
ciatiOn to the campaign fund. Tho
governors lawyers objected to the
query on the ground that there was no
reference in the articles Of impeach-
ment to such contribution.
Arguments followed. At their con-
clusion Justice Cullen, as presiding Of
flcer of the impeachment court, held
that the prosecution must not be held
to the narrow limits of a criminal case
the question was permissible and so
we're other questions like it.
The Justices ruling was sustained
BY the court unanimously.
The prosecution this afternoon de.
manded that Sulzer's private secretary
Louis Saraceky and broker, Frederick
Cowell, be produced by the defense
