new mechanical contrivance for utilizing
solar heat has recently been patented by a
Washington expert, which seems to combine
cheapness, simplicity and efficiency. Some
time ago, NJ. Mouchot, French experiment
er, constructed .ssOlar generator" which
demonstrated how the immense reservoir of
poxer in the sun could be applied for
mechanical purposes; and last August his
pupil, NJ. Pifre. exhibited an insolator by
means of which he concentrated the suns
rays, heated boiler placed in the focus Of
the reflector, and, BY a small vertical motion
attached, was enabled to run a printing
press. The Washington inventor, Mr.
William Calver, uses a number of mirrors.

they can be converged upon any one point,
and it is said with his apparatus metals re-
curing temperature OF several hundred
degrees to melt them are soon reduced to
liquid state 1t seems strange, says the New
York Herald, that mechanical ingenuity ba.
not busted itself more to devise some
effective means of utilizing the dynamical
effect of the suns radiation, which Sir
William Thompson calculated. on Pouillet's
determination of the amount of solar
radiation, to be equivalent at the suns sur
face to GO 900 horse power for each square
yard Of that surface, but which Professor
Langley's recent researches show to be even
greater NJ. Pifres .'insolator,' though
tested on day not very hot, and when the
sun was occasionally clouded, worked his
printing press for four honrs while printing
on an average 500 copies Of a journal pre-
pared for the occasion. sit seems evident
that in hot countries" says La Nature, ''the
use of heliody namics ought sometimes to
urDye effpctiyp and economical - n the
cloudless trade wind regions, where the suns
rays beat with so much force, and especially
in rainless and elevated sub-tropical coun-
tries there can be no doubt the sus's energy

such generators. which may often be found
invaluable in places wnere no fuel for the
supply of artificial heat can be obtained.

The Boston Globe of June IL, thus speaks
of Mile. Eugene Legrand, who will appear
at Granite Hall Tuesday evening Dec. 20 !;
"The Park Theatre last evening introduced
to our public an actress who came to Boston
with an excellent and an extended reputation
which it is a pleasure to say that her per
Torrance more than justified. Mile. Eugenie
Legrand, the latest of a long line OF Candles
gives to the portraiture of Margaret Gauthier
q delicacy of touch and skill in treatment
that are thoroughly artistic. 1t never for
moment loses its hold upon the atten-
ton of her auditors and it is not
only finely wrought out, but con-
sistent from first to last. Not one, we think
has given a more evenly balanced and more
carefully elaborated performance. In pres
ence the actress suggests Bernhardt, and she
certainly possesses much of the grace OF
movement that is so characteristic OF that
famous star. Her face is very mobile and
expressive, mirroring most perfectly the
changing emotions that sway the mind OF the
unfortunate Lady Of the Camelias. Mile.
Legrand is mistress of her art. 1t may De
said that Mile. Legrands personation OF
Dumas heroine gives especial prominence
to the better side of Magaret Gauthiers
nature; and it is perhaps true that Mile.
Legrand allows her audience to forget what
manner of woman Camille had been before
she accepts the love of Armand. But what
ever may be said as to Mile. Legrand's con-
ception of the part of Camille-and it pos
sesses undeniable charm-the actress must
be credited with most earnest and impas-
stoned performance. well studied throughout
and singularly effective. She made last even
ing most favorable impression on her audi
ence, which included . goodiy representa-
ton of actors and managers, besides = large
number of Park habitues, and filed the house
