In answer TO the many inquiries re-

No Room fo- Morgan Collection.


Nothing was said Yesterday about the
final disposition of the Morgan collection.
There had been belief that when the
inancier should return 10 this country
his consent would be asked for the exhi-
bition next fall OF additional parts of the
collection. As the proposed Morgan wing
cannot be completed for at least three
years, II was considered a certainty that
as much as could be- accommodated IN
the new wing just being completed add
ton H-would be placed on view next fall.
one OF the museum officials recalled yes
terday the occasion when one night. al a
reception IN the museum. the iinancicr
showed rs tenderness for children. II
was the evening OF January (, 1909. AZ the
opening Of the German exhibition, and
Mr.. Morgan was receiving.

French Scientists to Investigate Hum,
BILE Glow Worm In Hope Of solv-
ing Perplexing Problem.

The humble glow worm is to be in-
vestigated by French scientists in the
hope that it will serve to solve the
problem of discovering cold light.
The great objection to all present
forms Of electric lights is the heat
they give OF.
In his address to the National So
ciety of French Electricians, President
Daniel Berthelot says the glow worm
as a machine for the production of
light Is perfection itself. For every
100 units of energy expended the glow
worm, with its cold, dry light, gives
100 per cent. of illumination, as against
IL per cent. by gas. 1.5 per cent. by
electric light and IA per cent. by the
sun. This. according to NJ. Berthelot,
is due to an "electro-capillary ap-
paratus in the worm, constituted by
thousands of cells"
