ARTIFICIAL hEART BEATS.
Hamburg Doctor Demonstrates Pos
Mbility Of Taking Organ from
/, Body with Safety.


That the heart Of a cold-blo0det
animal, after the death OF the an
imal, may be contracted by cleo
tficity or other irritant, is fact
which is we'll known to the ordi
nary person. But that it Is posi-
Bile to take the human heart out
OF the body and keep it in activity
for hours is fact which has just
been demonstrated by DR.. Deneke,
OF Hamburg. The case is fully re-
ported in the Hamburger Mach
richten. ~ .Nx-r-
The experiment was performed
by Drs. Deneke and Adam on q
woman who had been executed BY
the guillotine in Hamburg, the
criminal being 48 years Of age and
in good health. The head fell into
a closed sack, into which also
passed the greater portion of the
blood from the carotid arteries,
and from this sack there was OBJ.
tanned about ID liters of blood.
which was at once deprived Of its
fiber. AT SAP a. m. the body was
taken into a cell Of the prison,
stripped, and the thorax opened /:
there were still evident weak con
fractions Of the single portions OF
the heart, the movements of the
auricles being tolerably regular,
while the contraction Of the left
ventricle was hardly distinguish
able. The heart was taken from
the body at S:15, and the coronary
artery was then washed thorough
ly with physiological solution of
salt water at 35 degrees G., until
the fluid coming from the heart
was colorless. The heart was now
completely at rest all movement
had ceased. Then the organ was
washed with a Lochesche solu-
tion, which produced we'll co0r.
dinated contraction of the whole
heart; at 8::32 in place Of the
Lockesche solution there was
passed into the heart the blood
freed from its fiber, filtered and
warmed. Immediately there took
place an unusually powerful and
regular contraction of all portions
Of the heart.
After the regular beating of the
heart had continued for some
time little air balloon was
passed into the pulmonary veins
~ the left auricle, and then
through the mitral valves intothe.
left yentricle. Two hours afte,e
the execution the heart com
meneed 70 paIpiiate, apparently
~ consequence of the rise in tenn
perature and the pressure used toI
force the blood through the organ.
Ihe supply Of fluid was then shut
oil, but after half hour again
into the heart, 1T which
time the organ again took up its
regular movement. The contrac.
tions, however, gradually be-
came less, and at 11:03 4. m. the
movement ceased. But it had been
possible to keep in isolated heart
n movement for a period Of three
hours after taking it from the
body.

INSECTS THAT ARE MUSICAL
All Are Tsnors-Malcs Are Always
the Musicians--Divided In
Two Sections.


Musical insects of the winged
type may be divided into two
groups; a. Those which do not
use their wings and (2) those
which do, for the production Of
sound. OF the two, the latter spe
cies is by far the more numerous.
a very curious fact il that all in.
sects are ten0rs, deep bass voices
being quite unknown; in addition
70 this, the males are always the
performers, female insects being
dumb - cOntenting themselves
with stopping at home and look
ing after the children instead Of
standing at the front door singing
ike their lords and masters, says
the Scientific American.
Many insects sing by day, such,
for instance, as the chickadee.
which, however, are not of the wi.
ollnlst" type, as they play upon a
series of hard plates attached to|
the abdomen, much in the same
way as Spanish dancer uses the
castanets. Another insect Of this
tyre is the black field cricket (.
which has it's home in a small
cavelike dwelling it prepares in|
the earth.
Other insects only sing by night
such, for instance, as the domes
TIC and tree crickets, whose regu
lar modulated notes are known to
every one. The apparatus used By
these insects exactly resembles a
violin, the abdomen being partial.
" endowed with small bridgelikeI
edges or ridges, against which the
wings are rubbed. thus producing
the strident note characteristic of
the insect.
Other Insects, such ais locusts
and their kin, have veritable bows
covered with fine ridges and lit. |
tached to the wings by two but
ton-like growths. Others have
cavities covered over with a fine
membrane which serve the Office
OF resonators; in almost all in.
sects Of this type there is a parch
ment like part Of the abdomen |
which acts as a kind Of sounding
board. Strange to say. many of |
these harmonious insects are de- |
priyed Of hearing. Crickets. how |
ever, are an exception. as thts
have sharp ears and cease their |
vocal efforts at the sound Of an.
preaching footsteps. Some in
sects, although apparently de-
prfved Of any means for the pro.
duction Of sound, are none the /
less capable Of making 4 noise in
Che world a notable instance Of
this il to be found in i locust re-
joicing in the euphonious name Of
Microcentrnm tetinervis, which
4 short, monot0nous note
like two pieces Of metal or flint
rubbed together.
50 far the field Of insect voices
has not been widely explored. It'll
would be interesting to study
them from the point Of view Of
notation. and also to de-
termine whether their song alters
