grade, Solving Problem.
Special Gable to The American.

LEYDEN. HOLLAND, Jan. 10
Kammerlingh Onnes, who recently
won the $4,000 Nobel prize for phys
les for 1918, has spent twelve years
trying to liquefy helium, the last gas
which still resisted the greatest cold
as yet eXperimentally produced
1t was the one gaseous element Of
our planet which refused TO yield
to all efforts to put it in liquid form.
In his laboratory here Onnes attacked
the problem from the point of view
of theory. When his mathematical
Investigations were complete he
started to experiment
He first produced "a temperature of
80 degrees cent. by liquid methyl
chloride, then los degrees to les
degrees cent. by ethylene. Liquid
oxygen then gave him temperatures
from -1S3 to Ply degrees cent
Hydrogen furnished the next step
-253 to -259 degrees cent.
Then his actual operations with
he,ium began. 1t was compressed to
70 atnospheres and cooled IN q bath
of liquid hydrogen, and at -259 de-
grees the helium condensed to a blu
lsh liquid whose temperature, on
boiling, fell to -271 degrees cent.
This is two degrees above the abso-
lutte zero which, according to theory,
IS the lowest temperature attainable.
Astronomers SHOW that the tenn
perature of interplanetary space is
about -269 degrees cent, degree of
cold which has thus been exceeded in
the laboratory.
To produce these extremes of tenn
perature it Is necessary to work with
minute quantities of gas and to use
excessively fragile and delicate ap-
paratuS.
In the upper atmosphere of the sun
a new element, coronium, has been
discovered. 1t is probable that this
element exists, though never isolated.
In our atmosphere. Some day this
may be accomplished, and the prob
lem of liquefaction will arise a new.

Satire on the Press
Makes Hit in Paris
Special Gable to The American.


PARIS, Jan. 10-The most amusing
play of the moment, one to which the
most prudent can not object, is Iris
tan Bernard's Les DeuX Canards,'
biting satire on the insincerity of the
modern press, for it deals with an edi-
tor lie Gallo, who writes with equal
facility and conviction in two papers of
Numerically opposed views. task
which a good many Paris newspaper
men find themselves doing.
The press naturally has not taken
very kindly to the play, but the public
is wild over it, especially because 1t
recognizes several we'll known journal
lists among the persons in the cast.
Tristan Bernard, by the way, might
appropriately be called chief purveyor
of plays to the city of Paris, for at
present no less than four of his plays
are being given at various theaters
here, a fact which lends new strength
to the rumor that not all the plays that
bear his name are products of his pen.
1t is whispered, as a matter Of fact,
that he takes his plots where he finds
them, outlines them to number of
young writer's employed by him, who do
all the hard work, The maestro is
satisfied to add the final touches TO
them, before he submits them to the
theatrical managers.

inwardness of this colossal deal
Two Historic Theaters.
An immense amount of public in
terest centers around the sale of the
Bedford estate in Central London,
seeing that the two most historic
theaters the nation possesses are in
cluded in the sale. These are Covent
Garden and Drury Lane, respectively
rated at $4,000 and $2S,755.
Drury Lane, the older theater of
the two, was built in 1863 under Il
patent granted by Charles H. the
present building dating from 1872.
The present lease was first obtained
from the Duke of Bedford by that
great impresario, Sir Augustus Har-
ris.
The names of world-famed actors
have in the long history Of this mann
moth theater been among the many
lessees. These include Sir Richard
Steele, Colly Cibber, David Garrick,
Richard Brinsley Sheridan, John P.
Kemble, w. c. Macready, Edmund
Falconer, f. b. Chatterton and the
late Sir Augustus Harris. Arthur
Collins is the present managing di-
rector of the theater.
History of Name.
1t was not until 1881 that the first
Covent Garden Theater was built by
John Rich. This ground and that
occupied by the market had formerly
been covered by monastery, with
large gardens attached. This ac-
counts FOR the name so long borne by
this district, which was probably
known as convent" the French for
convent, in its early days, and was
later changed to "Covent"
Handel, the great composer, was
one of the first who produced opera
in the new house, and though his
name has been handed down to fame,
he managed to go bankrupt after a
second season in t743. Some fifteen
years later Goldsmith's Good Ma
tured Man" was first produced, and
in 1878 she Stops to Conquer" first
saw the light.
An epoch was reached when the
incompatible Mrs. Siddons made her
first bow to the public in 1886, and
though the great theater has been
burned down on two or three occa-
sions, ii remains the first national
opera house in the British dominions.

LONDON, Jan. 10.-Mystery seems
to envelop the personality of Mr..
Mallaby Decly, M. p, the purchaser
of the world famed London property
of the Duke of Bedford in and around
COvent Garden.
No one appears to know anything
about his wealth, its source or
whether in the present instance he is
acting for himself or in conjunction
with others.
1t is only in Il country like Eng
land where so little curiosity is dis
played even about men who appar-
emily command millions that such a
state of affairs is possible Although
the papers are flooded with articles
on everything Nj. Mallaby Deely is
known to have done, not one OF them
contains anything of a positive ma
ture concerning what everyone is dy-
ing to know. namely whence comes
his apparent command OF literally
fabulous wealth.
Secret in the Family.
\ man who can make the biggest
deal as between two individuals on
record is certainly worth some trou-
BILE to place in the financial world.
But Mr.. Mallaby Deely is not man
who gives his story away to the first
bidder, and it is not particularly like
ly that his brother, Frank Curzon,
the popular theatrical manager will
he the man from whom to learn the
story. Altogether ne has laid out the
estimated sum of something like SIS,
100000, and yet until this last deal
was announced his name was almost
unknown.

is Mr., Mallaby Deely's object in buy
ing so costly an estate when, accord

Interior object in so doing. He does
not want to pull down anything that

Why the Duke of Bedford should

essential that his private life should

in politics, and more particularly the
land question, on which he can speak

their father, but it is very awkward
for them to have to visit their par
