A Chemical Bubble Factory

The New York Times-on the author
ity of an Oil City contemporary-say
that soap bubble factory is in opera
tion near Franklin, Pa, little town on
the Erie railroad, near Oil City. 1t is at
a point where pipes. carrying gas and
oil run under sluggish brook. There
is considerable alkali in the mud on
which the water rests. This alkali unites
with oil that leaks from one of the pipes
forming "saponule." an imperfect SOAP
Gas escaping from the other pipe rises
through the strong soluton of this SUBJ
stance, and the result is that constant
succession of bubbles form on the sur
face Of the water andlfioat away through
the air. They are of all sizes from an inch
to more than foot in diameter, and,
being very numerous and all coated with
iridescent films of oil. they present a
most beautiful spectacle when illumined
by the bright sunshine. Some break and
disappear a height of 20 feet, but many
Of them soar above the tree tops and out
of sight, resembling, more than any
thing else, gorgeous toy balloons. They
are much more brilliant than ordinary
soap bubbles; the gas adds speed to their
upward flight, and SO strong are they, it
is said, that leaves and twigs floating on
the water are often carried away by the
larger spheres.

Advance Announcements

ORPHEUM. - (Advance Announce
ment) People have already begun to
talk about the Vaidis twin sisters. who
are booked as the special sensation a,
the Orpheum next week, their fame hav-
ing travelled before them and raised a
feeling of pleasant anticipation in the
minds of all who go in for vaudeville
in it's ultra-sensational form.
Morton and Elliott form a musical
team that promises an agreeable varia-
tion in the way Of musical acts, with their
clever harmonica playing. The possibil.
tiles of this homely little instrument
cannot be realized until one hears it in
the hands of a master.
Wills and Loretto will add strong
comedy vein to the program, introduce
ing a merry melange of humorous spe.
cialties. Wat Wills will be remembered
as the leading comedian Of the ''Prodigal
Father" which had such a successful
run some time since.
One of the features of the new show
will be the travesty turn Of the Garri-
sons, who will present new things In
their line.
The Worlds Trio is also billed for the
week, as are also Delmare and De Ra-
miere and bright little Moll!e Thomp-
son.
The two regular performances will be.
given today, the new program going into
effect tomorrow evening.

One Of Lincoln's Dispatches

On the evening Of August II General
Grant was sitting in front OF his quarters
with several staff officers about him,
when the telegraph operator came over
from his tent and handed him dispatch.
He opened it. and as he proceeded with
the reading his face became suffused
with smilee. After he had finished it lie
broke into a hearty laugh. We were
curious to know what could produce SO
much merriment in the general in the
midst of the trying circumstances which
surrounded him. He cast his eyes over
the dispatch again, and then remarked:
THE president has more nerve than any
of his advisers. This is what he says
after reading my reply to Halleck's dis
patch" He then read aloud to us the
following:
Il have seen your dispatch expressing
your unwillingness to break your hold
where you are. Neither am I willing.
Hold on with a bulldog. grip, and chew
and choke as much as possible.
"a. LINCOLN"
