ANOTHER SPECTROSCOPIC
ACHIEVE MENT.
written for the CALEDoNIANJ

Among the many strange and IN
teresting things done by the aid of
the spectroscope are some whlchmay
well be termed tantalizing for we are

in the sun and therefore called helium
is found where it can be handled in
the spectrum tube and chemists
flask.
When the great discovery ofargon,
the fifth constituent of our air, was
being discussed a few mouths ago
and many were taking hand in its
examination, it wa remembered that
a certain mineral cleveite had been
said to give out nitrogen on treat
ment with suiphurc acid. Prot.
Ramsay whose work with Lord
Rayleigh gives him a share of the
honors of discovering argon, tested
this mineral to see if the so-called
nitrogen might not be partly argon.
He was not only delighted to find
very little nitrogen and some argOn,
but the spectroscope revealed a line
well known to students of celestial
physics, the D3 line very near the
other d lines in the yellow known
to belong to sodium. So he had
reason to believe he had in his tube
the very helium discovered IN the
chromosphere OF the sun by Lockyer
in 1868 and believed to be an eX.
tremeIy light gas similar to hydrogen
so abundant in the same layer of the
suns atmosphere.
The identity OF this gas as derived
from that and several other minerals
with the helum OF the sun and GER

be well made out, though some con-

increased our admiration for and
confidence in this wonderful means

While most observers readily con-
coded the coincidence of the two sub
stances, on using a spectroscope OF
great defining aud dispersive power
it was made out that the D8 line OF
terrestrial hehum was double. having
a faint companion. and therefore
it was SAID the two substances were
not the same. This led to more close
examination of the De line of the sur

double in the same way, the critica

THE CHRIST IAN HARMONY.
BY Jeremiah Ingalls,.
Written for the CALEDoNrAN1

Written for the CALEDoNIAN.
An ancient and much worn singing
book OF about two hundred pages,
bearing the above title, printed at
Exeter, n. H., in 1905 by Henry Ran
let, lies before me, and of it and its
author | propose to say somewhat
to the readers OF the ,CALEDoNIAN,
very few of whom ever heard OF the
man, or the book before.
Yet it is a genuine Vermont pro-
duction and its author was one OF
those sweet singers some of whose
strains will continue to be sung as
long as the Christian church has
need Of music.
He certainly deserved something
better than forgetiulness. | was
looking over, lately, new volume
OF hymns and tunes, supposed to con

sings of old and new, and among
them found no fewer than seven
tunes which were first printed in this
book, only one of which wascredited
to its real author, or called by the
name he gave to it.
jeremiah Ingalls, was born at An
dover, Mass, in 1864, of the same
family, later generation of which
produced in the adjoining town OF
Middleton, Senator Ingalls, OF
Kansas
He was one of these who sings as
naturally as bird sings, and had he
lived in our day, with modern train
ing, might have won great fame.
But musical advantages were few
in those days, and he was mainly
selt-taught, acquiring considerable
proficiency upon the violincello, the
chief accompaniment of vocal song
at that time. He possessed a sweet
and powerful tenor voice, and
thorough knowledge Of harmony as
it was taught at that period.
He was a cooper by trade, and
carried it on in connection with
teaching singing schools wherever he
went. He began to teach before he
was twenty years old, and taught in
the eastern part of New Hampshire,
and later in or near Concord.
Somewhere about 1899 he found
an opening for both pursuits at New
bury, and an inducement to remain
there in the person of an adopted
daughter of DR.. Gideon Smith, the
first physician who settled in that
town. She was a neice of Mrs
Smith; her name was Mary Bigelow
She was a cousin of Major Jabe1
Blgelow of Ryegate, whom many o
the older CALEDONIAN readers viii

THE BOOTS CAME HIGH.

Them Before the Court

But the Opera BOuTe Singer Exhibited
Them Before the Court.
There is some talk now of the intro
duction into the burlesque shows Of the
year of the somewhat celebrated scene
of Miss Madeline Shirley's trial before
Judge Stiner, in which Lawyer Town
send and n number of other prominent
legal lights figured. 1t was one Of the
most remarkable instances Of court ex-
perience IN New York. and il offers
great opportunities for effective stage
pictures. Miss Shirley. who is an opera
boufTe singer and burlesque artist, was
sued by a theatrical shoemaker for some
high boots, slippers and other footgear
which she had ordered when she was
playing Robinson CrusOe" IN Philadel-
phia. She refused TO pay the bill ON the
ground that the boots did not fit, and
she put them on in court before Judge
Stiner.
The judge is nearsighted and is a
man Of great sincerity and earnestness.
The only question before him was wheth-
er the boots fitted or not. and as the
burlesque actress pulled them ON and
thrust her foot out for the judges opln-
ion he hovered about her, felt Of the
toes of the boots, noted where they were
too small or too large around the calf Of
the leg and entered into the spirit of rho
occasion with such earnestness that the
entire courtroom was thrown into
amazement. Miss Shirley capped the
climax by pulling on a pair Of tights in
court. and rolling them down showed
the judge and lawyers how she had &C
improvise a pair Of Robinson Crusoe'
boots 80 rs to be able TO play her part
successfully. As the judge knelt ON the
floor before the burlesQue actress and
critically examined the tights and the
improvised boots Mr.. Townsend, who.
by the way. was the attorney for the
plaintiff, stood hugging himself with
