MUSIC AND DRAMA.
The vitascope.

In0 tlt8ScOpe.
The first presentation of the vitascop Q
was at Roster & Beal's, New York,
April 23d. The second exhibition was at
Keith's, Boston, May 18th. So EPortland
has not waited long for the novelty. The
plot ures shown by the vitascope are taken
quickly and exposed SO rapidly as to
produce the effect of motion, 2760 being
shown in the vitascope in minute
These pictures are photographed on a
ribbon-like film about an inch wide and
$50 feet long, run by delicately ar
ranged gearing in front of powerful
light and lens that magnifles 600 times.
The pictures on the film are hardly big
ger Than the thumbnail, and the progress
sion of the pictures is from the top to the
bottom, and not across the screen, as
would seem likely. The machinery is
very elaborate to the unscientif1c mind,
but luckily the unscientific mind enjoys
the show all the better for being i'm.
pressed by marvellous effects 1T cannot
understand. For few minutes after. the
film starts one hears the clatrer. CHATTER.
as the proper speed is achieved before
the side. is withdrawn, and the click.
solicisg represents exactly the rapidity at
which the pictures pass the lens, each
click marking the passage Of one picture
between the screen and the lens, for, Of
course, zach view gets an imperceptibly
| arrested presentation. The vitasoope
will be seen at Portland theatre all next
week.

Another large audience was prese nj

graduated in being fortunate enough te
