The from protection of y York City attack by enemy's swift flying airplanes or by dirigibles has an deen so carefully studied by officers of both the army olready and the navy that devices to detect the pros of flying machines within a dangerous area are now being tried At Governor's Island During the daytime a certain amount of reliance !§ to be placed upon ob- Servers stationed at various vantage points in the elty and its environs, but such night. For this reason detectors Which shall “hear” the approach of a hostile machine are now engrossing the attention of the officers of the two services. The device which has, so far, given the best results was tried out yester- day for the first time, It was sent in & carefully closed motor truck from the Brooklyn Navy Yard and was constructed after many days’ con- sultation between the engineers and electricians of both services Tt consists of a micro-telephone and four great megaphones, the latter six feet long and threo feet wide across the mouth. When these four horns are set up their smaller ends converge upon the microphone. The ordinary telephone, tn transmitting the sound of the voice relies upon one olectrieal contact to catch the voice in audible volume, A microphone employs sev eral hundred such contacts, thereby magnifying the instrument's ability to catch thé*siightest sound, From the microphote extend so ral lines of small rubber tubing equipped with ear pieces to be in- serted well within the ear #o that nearby sounds may be completely shut off. This part of the appliance is like the ear tubes attached to the penny-in-the-slot phonographs to be found in arcades all over the city. tecting device haa been sida of the large par BAD SPRAINS.
