Lecture by Professor Barker, Of Yale Col
legc, Before the American Institute.
The large hail Of the Cooper Union was comfort
ably filed last evening by very intelligent au-
dicnce, drawn together by the announcement that
Professor G. F. Barker Of Yale College, would de-
liver the first of course OF scientific lectures,
under the auspices Of the American Institute. The
eminent lecturer was introduced by Professor
Tyndall. The discovery Of the spectroscope and
the improved method it offered for chemical
analysis were first treated Of. The simplicity ofts
construction was explained and how the spectrum
was obtained Light, Its different co0rs and char
acter, were then referred to, and able and in
structve illusions made to the cause OF con tnuous
and interrupted spectra. by the nature OF the
spectrum it can be easily told when solid, liquid
or gaseous substance Is under examination. Then,
with the and OF an assistant, Professor
Barkerlshowed on canvas screen the construc-
ton OF q specstrocope, which was viewed with
great satisfaction, enabling those present unac-
auainted with IL to better understand the subject
under consideration. The Professor subsequently
made several interesting and striking experiments,
all the while clearly explaining the cause Of re-
suits obtained, the audience finally departing In
