FREEZING A SOAP BUBBLE.

Professor Dewar lectured yesterday
afternoon at the royal institution OIL
the solid and Liquid States of Mat
ter" Ice, he said. was ordinarily re-
garded as 4 yisciolis substance, mas
much as we could squeeze 1t. When
we applied considerable pressure 70 IL
we could force 1t into the form Of a
wire. But ice was none the less a
brittle substance, and Ii we cooled Ii,
as the lecturer did by pouring liquid
air upon it, 1t would crack all over
which the ice obligingly did. From
the ice the lecturer passed to an in
vestigation which had been Travelled
over In a previous lecture He spent
some time In explaining his vacuum.
Sometimes these vessels are made In
the shape Of fagons, sometimes In the
form Of test tubes; for one experiment
they are made In the shape Of the
goblets which we usually associate
with the historic drama. In the form
OF test tubes use Is made Of a. double
set OF them, one inside the other, to
make liquid and solid air. In the
outer tube liquid oxygen Is placed.
Pressure Is taken off the liquid oxygen
by air pumps until 1t cools to such
an extent that it liqueiies the air in
the inner tube, which Is surrounded by
the liquid oxygen. Pressure Is then
taken Off this liquid air by another set
Of air pumps until 1t grows SO cold
that, as was shown with the greatest
success yesterday afternoon, the liquid
suddenly solidifies, and the wondering
spectator sees the air which he Is
breathing frozen to solid mass be-
fore his eyes.
Professor Dewar showed that red
oxide Of mercury when subjected to
the intense cold OF liquid oxygen lost
its color and became yellow; that amyl
alcohol solidifles to a CLASSY mass, and
methyl alcohol to mass of white
crystals; that hydrocarbon. like
turpentine, freezes to a clear glass.
Bisulphide Of carbon when colored
purple with iodine becomes a slightly

uriant beyond all precedent The name
of this unique individual is General
Hugh Cameron, and his appearance and
history we'll bear out the assertion that
he is the oldest character Kansas has
ever known
His home Is three miles from Law
renee, on the Kaw river, at what is
known as Cameron Bluff, and where he
has lived for years known to his neigh
bors as scholar, soldier, celibate and
vegetarian. He was born in Pennsvlva-
MIA about 60 years ago and is a relative
of the CanerOns who have been so
prominent IN Pennsylvania and national
politics for years past. Over 80 years
ago, when he was still in the vigor of
young manhood, he appeared at Law
renee He built rude cabin, mingled
little with his neighbors and lived as a
hermit because the girl he loved Tilted
him OH the day set for their nuptials.
He declared that he would never mar
~, and he never has. He swOre he
would work 90 hours a day, sleep four and
eat no meat, and a Kansas newspaper
man AYERS thathe has faithfully followed
this routine. He also swOre that there
would be wIliskers on the moon before
he would shave his beard or cut his
leonine name, and his pictures furnish
prima facie evidence that he has also
kept this VOW. He braids his hair and
whiskers and coils the braids around his
neck When his whiskers are at large,
they tickle the grass as he walks along.
When he wants his mule, he uses one
of his braids as a lasso, it is said, but
this is without doubt a campaign lie.
At the outbreak of the war Cameron
was commissioned captain of Company
F, Second Kansas cavalry, and served
with gallantry throughout the war,
leaving the service lieutenant colonel
and brevet brigadier general He calls
himself an independent tramp candidate
for congress, nominated by the George
Washington corps Of home protection
lists, and says that in his campaign the
golden rule and the decalOgue will be
as carefully observed as possible under
existing partisan Generalization.
