Scientific Notes. “'IIAT THE MEN OF GENIUS ARE SAYING AND DOING. We are told by professor Oliver Lodge, the celebrated physicist, that at the absolute zero of temperature,â€"-373 dog. 0., or 459 deg. F.â€"thc molecules of a perfect gas would lie so inert that they could be swept together in piles on the floor. "151 recent London lawsuit regarding noise and vibration caused by a factory, the phonoaraph was brought in as a witnesa, at the suggestion of Prof. Sil- vauus P. Thompson, being caused to record the noises and reproduce them in court. The Italian consul at Bordeaux has telephonic connection with the opera house at Bordeaux as well as with that in Paris, and he says he heard the music from Paris, 375 miles, as distinctly as that which comes to him from a dietance of only a few blocks. Air can be frozen at a temperature of 296 degrees below zero, and the product, which can be handled and felt, burns, rso to speak, with its excessive Cold. ‘Frozen air can be produced in any quantity, but its cost, 8500 a gallon, is likely to prevent a large business. Electricity is employed largely for pulling teeth. To the battery are at- tached three wires. Two of them have handles at the end, while the third is .attached to the forceps. The patient grasps the handles, the electricity is turned on suddenly and the dentist rimultaneously applies his forceps to the teeth. The instant the tooth is touched, it, as well as the surrounding parts, becomes inscnsible to pain. and it is out. Electricity has Won many triumphs over its once formidable rival, steam, during the past decade, and that, too, in departments in which the position of the latter was deemed unassailable. As a source of intense light, and as a motor force for vehicles, as well as for mach~ ' inery of all kinds, it is in extensive use and in steadily growing demand; and LOW attempts are made to utilize elec- tricity for heating purposes. An interesting and important experi- ment was lately conducted by Dr. Pa- lermo at Naples. In the course of sci- rutific studies Dr. Palermo has given :peciul attention to the relative action of sunshine and darkness on microbes. He .claims that his researches have ptoven that in addition to checking the multiplication of micro-organisms, sun- light is especially bancful to those which are noxious to human or animal life. In the experiment mentioned Dr. Paler- ' no exposed the bacilli of Asiatic cholera lo the sunlight for four hours, and find- ing them still alive, he administered them to a guinea pig. Taking at the same time other germs of a similar na- ture which had been kept in a dark room for an equal time, he administered them to another guinea pig. In about 8 hours the latter animal died of Asiatic cholera, while the former charged with the suncurcd bacilli remained perfectly well. Subsequently the doctor inocu- lath the animal with the mast virulent cholera microbes, but they had no effect upon it; exposure to the sun’s rays had, besides destroying the disease producing 1owers of the microbes, made them active and effective agents in resisting their still virulent brethren. «nuâ€"o - 9-â€" ,A Fish With a. Lantern. No matter what animals. or group of animals, are studied. it will always be found that their leading physical traits are exactly adapted to their habits and conditions. A striking illustration of this fact is ali'nrded by the torch fish. This is a deep sea fish, that carries on its nose something like a short, thin, bone, which it can illuminate with a phosphorescent light, or extinguish at pleasure. It does not use this lantern to guide it on its way in the depth of the ocean, or to enable it to see what is going on in the neighborhood ; the light In put to a more practical use. When (he iiuh feels hungry, it lights up to attract smaller fish. They dart for the light and find themselves in the capa- cioua mouth of the fish. How the lant- cm In lighted and extinguished is not yet clearly understood. ,_ ~....__........ .. Crow Catching in India. In order to catch crows after the gypsy fashion in India, it is necessary In have a captive crow always on hand. This crow must he laid upon its back and Ila wings pegged to the earth \\i.h l fork d sticks. Immediately a tree crew will allde it, and the captive crow, seizing the free one with its claws, will hold it tight. Crow No. 2 must. then be taken and pegged down also. Other crows will come and two more will soon be caught. They must also be laid out with pegs. and then the four captives will take four other crows. This plan is lollowcd until the hunter has takeul all the crows he desires. l ....._.........~..... - o «b.
