Electric music from arc lamps proposed by Duddell
W Duddell explains a discovery from electrical research at Central Technical College London showing solid carbon arc lamps can emit musical notes when arranged with a shunt. A keyboard of arc lights could play tunes from a distance, turning public spaces into invisible orchestras. The same arc light could also function as a telephone receiver in a building.

Strange Sea Worms Found Near Centennial Mill
A dredger in Elliott Bay hauled up a strange species described as an oblong transparent bag filled with water. The worm, 3 to 5 inches long and 1 inch thick, has bristles at both ends that may serve as defensive weapons. Found in schools, these creatures travel wriggling along and are believed to live on smaller worms and vegetation. A specimen was sent for examination to Professor Kincaid, who labeled it a likely new species.
