As regards the cause of the phenomenon, Vaucher shows how rapid local alterations of atmospheric pressure would produce oscillations in the level of the lake, and compares them to the vibrations of a liquid in a recurved tube or siphon.
In due time carefully prick out, and the task so interesting to watch is performed. The Garden. By A.H. BRECKENFELD. Nearly a century ago, Vaucher, the celebrated Genevan botanist, described a fresh water filamentous alga which he named Ectosperma geminata, with a correctness that appears truly remarkable when the imperfect means of observation at his command are taken into consideration.
It was when the killing was done, and the dragoons were clearing the street, that there arrived on tiptoe Monsieur Vaucher, searching through tears for Madame. When he saw her he ceased to weep, but stood looking down, with his hands clasped behind his back. "Dead?" he asked abruptly. The Prince glanced up. "Yes," he answered. "Ah!" Monsieur Vaucher pondered. "Who killed her?" he asked presently.
He spoke to me, and I desired him not to speak to me for the future, of course. "Madame, up to the time when I went with Vaucher to the ground I had not given a thought to the issue of the affair. I had taken it for granted that Bertin would go down; at such seasons, one is blinded by one's sense of right. It lasted not two minutes. They fought with the saber our custom at that time.
But I saw him I saw them both within a week of their return. Upon that occasion I dined at a hotel with two friends, Captain Vaucher and Lieutenant de Sailles. Bertin, with some friends and his wife, was at a table near-by. She was the only lady of the party; her place was between an Englishman, a lean, twisted man with the thin legs of a groom, and a Belgian who passed for an artist.
The Englishman fidgeted and lounged beside her; the fat Belgian drank much and was boisterous; Bertin was harsh and rudely jovial and loud. It was as though she were enveloped in a miasma." "'So that is what Bertin has brought back, said Vaucher slowly, as his custom was." "'It is a crime, said de Sailles." "'I wonder, said Vaucher, and drank his wine.
Prince Sarasin was again in his box when Monsieur Vaucher, broken in spirit and looking bleak and old, came before the curtain to announce that owing to circumstances unforeseen circumstances of a a peculiar nature, Madame Schottelius would be unable to appear that night, and her place would be taken, etc. The announcement was not well received, and nobody was less pleased than the Prince.
She pondered for a few moments over it, then reached for her cloak and drew it on over her brilliant stage dress. "Find Vaucher," she said to her maid. "Tell him I cannot play to- night. He must put on my understudy. Say I am ill." The maid, startled out of her composure, threw up her hands. "But, Madame !" she cried. Truda waved her aside. "Lose no time," she ordered. "Tell Vaucher I am ill.
