The GiOwwOrm.

When examined in the dark, the light is
seen to proceed from the last three seq
ments of the glowworm body, the under
side of which emits it in an uncertain, wa
vering sort of way, the fact of its being
handled seeming to alarm the insect.
Schultze found that the animal possessed
thin, whitish plates on the under side OF
these segments, each plate consisting OF
two layers-a front one, yellowish trans
parent and luminous, and a back one,
white and opaque from the presence of a
great multitude of doubly rejecting gran
ules, which Kolliker supposes to consist of
urate of ammonia He also found that
branches of the insects breathing tube
(trachea) ramify among the cells of the
front layer, and end in starlike corpuscles.
So much for the structure of the In
minous apparatus, but as to the cause OF
the luminosity there is variety of opin-
ions. Some savants hold that it is due to
sort of natural combustion, and it is
said that if a glowworm be placed in oxy-
gen the light is greatly intensified for a
time, but the animal seems either unable
or unwilling to continue it. On the other
hand, when Matteucci placed it in hydro
gen and carbonic acid-gases which do
not support com bustion--the light still
continued to be emitted for 80 or 40 min
utes. Phcsphorescent undou btedly is its
nature, and that is about all that science
can at present affirm AS to the object of
this display authorities differ. The com
mon idea has always been that it is in
tended as signal between the male and
his mate Chambers Journal.

Thickness of the Soap Bubble Film.

The most powerful of the modern mi
croscopes will render point only one
hundred thousandth part of an inch in di-
ameter perfectly visible While this is
true beyond a doubt there are reasons for
believing tn; : a single molecule of matter
is much smaller even than that. One rea-
son for this belief has been deduced from
calculations made on the soap bubble.
Scientists have made measurements of the
thickness of the envelope of soapy water
inclosing the air of the bubble when it
had become SO thin as to produce rainbow
tints. At the appearance of the shade of
violet it was one-fourth of the thickness
of the length of an ordinary violet wave
of ight-one-sixty thousandth of an inch
thus making the thickness equal to one
two hundred thousandth of an inch.
AS the bubble continued to expand, a
black patch formed near the END of the
pipe from which the bubble was being
blown. Measurements were then taken to
ascertain the thickness of the black por-
ton of the bubble, and the experiment
ers were astonished beyond measure when
they found the thickness-or thinness-to
be only one-ifty nillionth of an inch!-St.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Miss Akerstrom's New Plays.

Ullie Akerstrom is distinguished as
an authoress as well as an actress and
dancer, for her clever pen wrote all four
of the plays in which she and her COM
pany appear Thursday, Friday and Sat-
urday evenings and Saturday matinee at
the Portland Theatre. Three of these
plays are new this year the fourth, Miss
Rora," to be played Friday evening, was
new last year and deemed worthy of
place in the repertoire this season on ac-
count of it's great popularity. The first
of the new plays to be seen is 1.-The
Sultan's Favorite,' which will be given
Thursday evening. It is comedy with
a very original plot and extremely
laughable situations. Second on the
list comes comedy-drama, Nan,
Ragged Heroine, ITO be played at the
Saturday matinee. 1t gives Miss Aker-
strom a chance to show her ability as an
emotional actress, for comedy and pathos
are blended in it. Saturday evening
"The Egyptian Dancer" romantic
drama, which has made great success
wherever produced this season, closes
the engagement.
The company supporting Miss Aker-
strom this year is the best she has ever
had with her, and this statement means
a great deal, for her support has always
been of the best when she has visited
Portland in years past.
O'Dowd's Neighbors.
Mark Murphy, the star of this success
full farce-comedy which comes TO the
Portland Theatre next Monday evening,
March 5th, is we'll known as one of the
old firm of Murray and Murphy of "Our
Irish Visitors" fame. In the role of
Dionysius Caesar O'Dowd," he is said
to find apart peculiarly suited to his
talents. Miss Beatrice Goldie, one of
the pretuiest girls on the stage and the
possessor of charming voice, is with
the company.
Haydn Association.
The Haydn Association will give
Elijah at Kotzschmar hall next Monday
evening. Mr. Arthur Beresord of Boston,
will sing the part of Elijah" He is
we'll known here as fine artist. The
Columbus Press says of him:
We are quite safe in asserting that
there is no such bass voice in the
country as that of Arthur Beresford. 1t
