Million Af- tlrnieil Hellenic limtruinctitn L'iMl "SouTrlniniili for , the Cntncrn. LONDON , Dec. 9. The Instantaneous elec tric spark has been used by many scientists to Illustrate certain physical phenomena. Prof , C , V. Iios used It to photograph flying bullets ; Prof. Worthlngton to photograph the cplcfih cf a diop ; Lord Haylclgh to photograph streams of bubbles , etc. The latest applica tion U the photography of j-lpplcs. U haa been accomplished by J. H. Vincent of the lloyal college of science , London. Most of the ripples which can bo produced on the surface of mercury arc Invisible to tbe united eye because the duration of the sensa tion produced by a luminous Impression on tlio retina lasts for only one-eighth of a sec ond. Mercury ripples are nearly always too ohorl to allow of the eye picking them out ; therefore wo have to resort to the Instantane ous method In order to see them. Mr , Vincent Is the first experimenter who has succeeded In obtaining photographs of ' ' " < i/ r ; ot thin statement let mo borrow an Illustra tion I once heard Lord Haylclgh uee. A mil lion seconds IB about twelve days nrwln-lghts ; 25,000,000 seconds Is nearly n year so that the time occupied by the spark In Prof Hood's experiment Is about the s&mo fraction of one second that one second Is of a year. Mr. Vincent attains hU resultby < the sudden Illumination of an electric spark. The spark Is about halt a centimeter In length and It lasts about > the ono two hun dred thousandth part ot a second ) Not BO short a period as ono twenty-flva millionth part of a second , which H will bo remem bered TVA3 the time of the spark employed by Prof , Hood , but nevcrthelc'8 an Incredi bly flhort period. To determine the duration of such a spark ( which may tie said to have scarcely any being nt all , for It dies as soon as H Is born ) Is a difficult -task. The scien tist has recourse to that wonderful -weapon , the revolving mirror , first employed by Wbeatatone , and since usul to determine the velocity of light. Mr. Vincent uses a second spark ( pro duced In the usual way 'by ' connecting a Wlmahurat ma-chlno with the knobs ot a Loyden Jar ) , which Is generally 1.5 centi meters across , ito Increase the ( brightness of the spark. In the Illustration wo see the Wlmshurst machine and the wires leading from It to the four Leydcii Jars. Tie first spark gap from which the light proceeds to Illuminate the mercury surface Is placed near the top of that gallows-like structure to the left of the camera. The second spark gap Is on the Immediate right of the four Jars. When the Wlmshurat Is turned the spark plays acro.'s the two "spark gaps" and the light from 'the ' first Is made to fall on a lens ( to the left of the stand ) In the path ot light. A second lens , similar In all respects to the llrst , converges the reflected light from the mercury surface Into the photographic cam era. Mr. Vlncend sets up his ripples In the ji ' * r VIDW OF APPARATUS WITH WHICH TH B RIPPLE PHOTOGRAPHS WERE TAKEN. ripples on a mercury surface. To some minds the grcU amount of care and preparation needed for the photography of mercury rip ples miy seem out of all proportion to the result obtalnsd. It Is quite true that they will not create a new Industry , nor revolu tionize an old one. Indeed , It-Is Impossible to ofe how they can bo applied to any bus iness ends. Strange as It may oeem , this quality endears them to the scientific man. They help to Illustrate In a now way some of the well known laws of nature , they show that patience acid determination can over come almost all difficulties and this Is quite enough for the latter. Ifyo throw a stone Into a pool of water \YO produce a sorica of motions on ito sur face which go by the name of waves , ripples or undulations , and we experience no dlin- culty In seeing these "waves with the naked eye bscauso their "length" Is comparatively large. Scientists determine the length of a wave motion ( whether In the air , the ether , the. sea , or In any liquid surface ) by measurIng - Ing the distance between crest and crest. The length of a wave Is , In fact , the distance from crest to crest. Now It Is quite possible to produce little waves or ripples on a liquid s.urfaco which are so small , which follow each other with such great frequency , and which pass so quickly before the eye , as to be perfectly Invisible. Those who have attended scientific lec tures , of course , know the means taken to render visible these ordinarily Invisible little waves. They are shown either by what Is known as the "stroboscople method , " or also by the production of an Instantaneous light The first method has often been , shown at public lectures by Prof. C. V. iBoys , and la as follows : 'THE OLD AND NEW METH.-IODQ. A water surface focussed on the screen appears unaffected by being touched with the point of a feebly sounding tuning fork. Directly , however , the light Is Intercepted trough of.-mercury ( which can be seen be low the camera ) iby agitating the surface of the mercury iby a stylus of glass attained to one prong of a vibrating tuning fork , plainly visible In the photograph. Mr. Vincent either gives the prongs of the tuning fork a slight blow or else ho electrically excltea r. Eecond fork connected by a hrcad to the exciting fork. Thlb latter Is the most sat isfactory method , tooth forks behaving In Identically the same manner. NEW PACTS SHOWN. The first photograph here reproduced shows us a scrli'ii of clicular wives set up In tne trough ot mercury by a single stylus cf glass attached to a vibrating tuning fork. When the fork was touched the stylus was de pressed at the black spot In the middle of tiiio picture and the beautiful little ripples , Invisible to the naked eye , but by 'the ' skill of the operator made visible In a photograph , were ut osice propagated. It will be noticed that a bar of wood Is placed acrcss the trougOi , and on the bar are two needle points nearly touching 'the ' surface of the mercury. These points are a known distance apart and by measuring the negative Mr. inent Is able to Hnd the soilo of reiuc.Vi of the ripple lengths above the line , a rcsJit which , of course , Is only of 'Interest 'to ' the phj-slclsi. The seccnd Illustration EUOWS us toother series of ripples so manipulated as to take a certain direction. It Is or > 3 of great beauty and In it wo can trace the gradual enlarge ment of the \\uves as they recede further and further away from the pclnt of disturb ance. Figure 3 shows the seta of ripples produced by two tuning forks , one making 128 vibrations a second and ' .he ether 112. Then 'the ' two forks are said to produce "six teen beats" a seccnd. The reason why Mr. Vincent wished to set up two sets of ripples In the mercury was to Illustrate wiat Is known as the "Interference of light. " Whcu waves ( whether In 'water or sound , heat or T > HOTOanAPIIS OF MHKCUrtY 1UPPLES. THESE HIPPLES HAVK NEVER UEEN SEEN UY HUMAN EYES. with a revolving disk , rotating In time with the fork , the ripples are scon clearly enough through the opening of tbe disk. This tnetl'Qd Is akin to the Instantaneous shutter employed t > y the photographer , or the "clne- Itetograp'hor , " and has been used with great effect by Prof , 'Maybrldge ' In bis photographs of trotting horses , etc. , etc. U will at once bo seen that It comes to the same thing Whether we look at the ripples by an In- Btantaneous light or whether wo use some ( mechanical device anj allow the ripples to bo submitted to brief periods of light. "In- Btautaneous photography" is not quite a de fensible term , because no photography can be really Instantaneous , but the time taken is eo extremely minute that tbo phrase may bo allowed to pass. Wo can employ either the magnesium flashlight which varies from 1-lOlh to l-16th of a second or we may use the electric spark. Prof. Hood of Now York isome Lime back made some experiments ou tbe duration ot tbo discharge ot a Leyden Jar , and also ou that of lighting , and he proved that in certain cases the duration ot AO electric spark across tbe knobs of Leyden Jars" charged from a Wlmsbur&t machine was B3 short as one twenty-five millionth part of. k second ot tlinet lu order to bring bomo tbo tull force .

" Tbe Inter ference of sound waves and the consequent production of beats Is a well kmwn lecture experiment , The color of a soip bubble or a stagnant pcol are also Illustrations of the "Intcr'erenco of light. " Thus In figure 3 we get an effect of the mutual Interference of one sot of tipples on the other. The curved light lines represent the places where the creit of one rlpplo ex actly neutralizes the trough of another ripple. Were we dealing with sound waves we should have at tbrso places what are known as rest ? ; If with light waves , what Is known as dark ness , wblcb is Eomotlmca actual darkness and at others really "color , " as In ( he case of the soap bubble shining in the sun. In figure 4 Mr. Vincent has employed u "point-source" and a "roflectlng.Ilne. " The former is the style attached to a tuning fork with a fre quency of ISO beats to a second , -while the Utter Is a tide of a triangular piece ot micro , scope covering- kept lu position by a small splinter of wood. We see here a great many "Interference lines. " These dim and blurred lines are due to tbe mutual action , ot tbe primary and reflected waves. This Fh6'o4 graph mij help us to realize the reflection of sound waves In air. We know that In order to hear all the lound produced the listener ought to bo In full view ot the oN chestrn because some sound waves nro unable to come round corners and fire deflected auay from the listener , who Is situated behind some obstacle. OUUI03ITIE3 OP WAVE MOTIONi "Marconi waves" are endowed with such wonderful properties that they are able to RO through brick walls and round all sorts of corners. Roentgen my waves again can go through a Great many substances which are opaque to ordinary light wa\cs. In the fifth ohotograph we have another Instance of re flected mercury ripples , for Mr. Vincent lias hero arranged a shallow circular reflector. Wo set nt the corners of this the tame blurred circles we caw in another Illustration and a series of lines are seen streaming away from the leflector. The scientific mind calls these "confocal ellipse oed confocal hyperbolas , " but though the lay mind cannot grasp the significance of thctc r'roles , ft can at least appreciate the beauty of the photographs and the Ingenillty ot the savant who took them. Our sixth Illusttatlon Allow * the ripple breaking against a scml-clrcu'ar reflector with mercury. The reflected ripples take the curious shape of straight lines In the middle , but arc bent outward from the reflector toward the ends , Illustrating "spherical aber ration. " No. 7 shows some queer patterns. In stead of using the tuning fork and style o' glass the ripples here were originated by the agitation ot a sl'p ' of cover glass , one side ot which Is made to dip Into the mercury ; they are reflected from the shallow circular mirror. "Tho Interference effects" are seen In the blurred naves at the bottom or the picture and If the photograph bo carefully looked Into many curious ripple forms will bo observed due to reflection. To studentu of natural philosophy , these photographs ( mould bo of great assistance In their study of physical problems. The eighth and last picture gives us a very Interesting pattern. The ripples are set up as In the previous photograph and nro re flected at an angle of about 4G degrees from n straight edge. The long black mark running from one end of the dipping1 edge of the slip of cover glass to the corner of the print Is due to a depres sion In the surface caused by a floating needle put there to scrom olt the circular waves coming from the end of the strip of glass. We see to what straits the ripples are hero put. They cannot pursue the oven tenor of their way , but are so harassed by obstacles that they take the most extraor dinary forms , at which the mind cannot fall to marvel. In conclusion It may be said thai these photographs taken by Mr. Vincent present analogues of the greatest service In demon strating the phenomena of acoustics and op tics , for they are Infinitely superior to geom etrical pictures drawn by" Instruments. We have all been greatly Interested In the "wire less telegraphy" experiments of Signer Mar coni and others and we know that his Invisi ble "telegrams" are carried by extremely rapid waves In the ether. These photographs help us to realize how such things can be , and the wave theory of light becomes clear when wo examine these mercury ripples. uY GIIll..S VliIlAXGU IX.IUHH2S. - of a llntr flint lilt Her Aroused Jlvi * from Sleep. A peculiar story was unearthed yesterdaj by the application of Mrs. Peter Wlcden- hoeffer ot 115 North Fifth street , for the killing of a dog that belonged to a neighbor Mrs. Phllto Solmell , relates the St. Louts Globe-Democrat. Tbe police , of course , woulc ii"t kill the dog without a permit from the owner , and when they went to the residence of Mrs. Sohnell It wan learned that the dog had been securely tied for the last twc months , and that It was linpos&lble for It tc bite any one , unless they broke Into the stable and climbed to the second stfry. They reported to Mis. WIpilenboelTer that the owners felt confident the dog t'O'l not bitten the child , and did not propose to nermit the ponce to kill It. Mrs. Wledenhocffer then said that the trouble occurred about two mouths ago , and that the child's condition now war ianted auch action , and unless the owners sacrificed the dog , a warrant would bo Issued. The dog , It seems , attocked Mrs. Wlcden hoefter's 10-year-old daughter and bit hei on the arm. The wound was dressed 1m mediately by a phjslclan and was appir cntly cured. Since that time , however , the little girl has changed lemarkibly. Be fore this bite slio was happy and playful while now she Is morose and sorrowful. A times she brightens up but In a few mln utes becomes absolutely uncontrollable and durlnc these fits or Immediately thereafter a peculiar coloring Is noticed In her skii and small blotches appear on her face. Hoi eyes have a peculiar expression anil all her family believe that while she may not be afflicted with hydrophobia , her system is unmistakably permeated with the poison from the dog's Uuth. A strange sympathy between the dog ant the child has been noticed also , whlcl greatly grieved the parents of the girl Annie , it seems , would bo sleeping soundly and the usual noises of the neighborhood Including the , barking of other dogs , woul < have no effect upon her , but the momcn the Schnell dog barked , she would spring from her couch , and , alth'otigh still asleep grope about the room and call frantlcallj , for assistance. When awakened from these moods by hsr parents , the little girl woulc almost collapse from weakness and fright The child's condition has not only nlirmed the Wlcdenhoeffer family , but all resident of Fifth street , many ofwhoso children hav bsen bitten by dogs. Mr. Schnell permlttei the family dog to be killed , but a condition was Imposed that It be taken away from the place , jq that none of the 'children , wh were very much attached to it , would se ths dead body. Mrs. Wlodcnhooffcr has neve placed any faith In the story that the dcatl of the dog would relieve danger from a bite jet she feels that the , little girl will not b subjected to the peculiar moods of melan cholla and dreams when she cannot hoar th bark of the dog that bit her JHII3I.
