Owing to the accommodating nature
of the officials of the Northern Pacific
railway their evening train into Morris
was several hours late three days last
week. Visitors to the Sank Centre

that the service be extended into the
evening hours were accommoda ted
by the delays. The failure of tn e
trains to arrive in Morris on time
caused favorable comment generally
when the cause became known. 1t

Mysterious Facts About
Sound Waves

steadier at night. and he discovered the
explanation IN the fact that between him
and the falls lay a broad grassy plain,
dotted over with protruding rocks. BY
day these rocks became hot, while the
surrounding grass remained cool. the con-
sequence being that currents of heated
air rose from the rocks. producing great
Irregularities OF density in the atmosphere
above the plains.
The sound waves from the. falls were
DETECTED and broken up in passing
through the agitated air, but at night
when the whole plain had sunk to q
common temperature, this interruption
ceased and the roar OF the falling water
was conveyed TO a great distance very
clearly and distinctly.
The loudness. or intensity. OF a sound
depends upon the density OF the air in
which It Is produced. For this REASON
guns discharged from airships at a great
elevation must make less noise than they
would II discharged on the surface of
the ground. Prof Tyndall concluded
from his experiments at Mont Blanc that
II the same cannon whose report was
heard on the summit OF the mountain
when fired in the valley OF Chamouni
below. were fired on the mountain top.
no sound would be heard at Chamouni
In the first case the sound waves were
excited In dense air from which they
could easily pass 70 the lighter air above.
but in the second case they would be set
going in rare air. and would consequently
possess less power of penetration on en-
countering the heavy air of the valley

compression and ref.action Of the air A

In 1872 the sound Of the guns in naval
