Jason Iioll, of Connecticut. is after
the lighthouse officials for authority to
erect oti It‘aulknorlis island In Long Is.
land Strand a fog signal which he is
confldcnl will break all records In
noise making.
The island has been for more than a
century a favorite spot for the testing
of such devices. It Is convenient of
access from the north shore of the
sound, and l:'. a :v 'ut which the Sound
steamers to and Lola New York invar-
lably “get hold of" at night, Moreover.
the distances at which sounds cart be
heard fr'orrr this island In all sorts of
weather can be readily measured on
the mainland of Connecticut. a few
miles away.
Sonic curious Inventions have at-
ready been tested by private individ<
utils on this island. Some years ago a
man named (lrecrrilcld not an upright
steam boiler at Faulkner‘s Island and
fitted a very large culllope or “pull
otit“ whistle upon it. The unearthly
ycll of Gr'ecnfleld's wlrlstlo was heard
for several months. but it was found
that its notes would not carry very far.
and that it cost too much to furnish
steam for it.
After this, a new inventor made his
appearance. He had with Irinr a mega-
phone 16 feet long, which was mounted
on a turntable so that it would swing
to all points. As the megaphone, which
had a iriouth seven feet across, swung
around It gave fortlr sounds from a
compressed air engine. which was op-
erated by a iii-horse power kerosene
oil ruoior. This whirling megaphone
bad a trial for over four years, and it
was thought to be a good thing until
several storms so heavy that they pre-
vented the turning of the megaphone
ruined its reputation.
About five years ago still another
style of megaphone i'ogliorn was test-
ed. This was a collection of eight pa-
per megaphones, each eight feet long.
with mouth four feet across and so ar-
ranged as to point to eight principal
points of the compass. When the
small ends of the megaphoncs met, a
siren whistle revolved and threw its
notes, first Into one megaphone and
tlten Into another.
It was said that the noise could be
heard, with a fair wind, at Wading
River, on the Long Island shore, 30
miles away, The machine proved a.
success, but was not adopted by the
United States, and was finally removed
to Canada.
. Mr. Bell plans to arrange six mon-
ster megaphones made of metal, three
of them to be forty feet long, with nine
foot months. These will be connected
at the small curls and point up and
down and across the sound. The three
other megaphones will be smaller, one
of them opening to the north and the
other two to the southeast and the
southwest.
Mr. Bell believes that the three
larger hortrs will throw sounds to Bart.
lett’s reef. near New London, on the
east. to Long island on the south, and
to Stratford shoal on the west. He will
operate his battery of horns with two
fifteen horse-power oil engines and
cornpresaeti air. and he is confident
that he wrri giro Uncle Sam a whistle
that can drill through any fog. ’
