PHOTOGRAPHERS AND DUST.
How It Affects Their Plate d What
They Do vo Escape It.
Among the many evils which are at
tributed to the all-pervading, never-to-be
escaped city dust, there is one which
constitutes a grievance peculiar to pho
tographers alone. It is the injury
which the flying particles, sifting into
the room through every aperture, cause
to the delicate films and sensitive plates,
All films are made of preparations of
gelatin, and a large proportion of the
glass plates now used are also coated
with this substance, which, because of
its soft, sticky nature, is particularly
likely to attract every atom of dustio
the surrounding air, The particles,
however small, leave their impress in
the form of opaque spots upon the sen
sitive surface and seriously mar its per
fection. To remove the damage a great
amount of retouching is necessary,
which is not only labor ops and tire
some, but which cannot a'ways be sat
isfactorily accomplished if the dust is
very thick. What is known as the "car
bon process" in photography is prob
ably more easily injured by dust than
any other, (because an extremely deli
cate film of gelatin is used. Chiefly on.
account of this drawback the carbon
process is seldom employed in this coun
try, although photographs are made
which resenxble the real carbon pic
tures so closely in color that they are
"carbon types." In England, where the
carbon process is more common, it has
become customary for Ixmlon pho
tographers to send their developing
work out of town to be done, in order
to escape the d ust and smoke of the city,
but this practice has not gained much
ground here.
The photographers in this city, as a
rule, perform their operations in the
same building in which their studios
are situated, and for the sake of thus
keeping the developing iproeess at home,
they are obliged to be at great trouble
in protecting it. Some of the methods
employed for this purpose were men
tioned to a Tribune reporter the other
day by a well-known Jtroadway artist.
"In the first place," he said, "we not
only keep onr dark room itself, but the
whole top floor in which it is situated,
spotlessly clean. The floors are all
oiled until there is not a crack in their
Biirface to harbor dust, and they are
thoroughly washed every morning be
fore we begin our clay's work. All the
tables, trays, and everything we use are
kent, enuallv clean, 'the windows, in
stead of being in the side walls, where
the wind would strike them and bear
the dust in with it, are in the roof, and
very little dust can come in that way.
All the cracks in the doors or around the
window frames are stopped up, and we
kce,p the (lark room tightly closed as
inuch of the time as possible. With
these precautions we manage to get
along pretty well, but a certain quanti
ty of dust seems bound to creep in, anil
it causes us a good many hours of extra
work in retouching."
Practically the same struggle against
dust is the experience of every photog
rapher in the city. One remedy which
has been tried occasionally with success
consists in filling the room in which the
plates nre kept, with steam forafewmo
jncnlseach morning. This usually suf
fices to lay the ihiHt for the entire day.

HONEST, BUT CUTE YANKEE.
Ill Hencoop Straddle the l.lne lle
tmeen Arizona anil Mexico.
There is a funny case of International
honesty down in Arizona, just on the
line between that, territory and Mexico,
Kays the Washington Times. A Ynn
kce farmer lives there, 0110 Aiuasa liar
row by name, and it is his business to
raise chickens. Chicken feed is cheap
in Mexico and chickens bring fine prices
in Arizona, but to raise fowls iu Mex
ico and bring them across the boun
dary, or to buy the feed and bring it
across, would involve the payment of
a considerable duly, which would eat
the profits about as fast as the hens
could eat the corn. As for smuggling,
that was not to be thought of.
Amasa is a Yankee, and he is so hon
est that his neighbors say he wouldn't
take advantage of a man in a horse
trade, lint he is also full of Yankee
Ingenuity, and after deep cogitation
L built a long, slim hencoop, one-half
of it in Arizona and the other iuMexico.
On the line there h a gate. Over the
line, there nre barns containing feed.
At feeding lime the gate is opened, and
the chicken fancier shoos his flock into
Mexico, where they eat their meal.
Then he shoos thciu back to the protec
tion of the American flag, where they
digest this Mexican grain, lay their
eggs and carry on their funnily affairs.
Mr. Harrow saves about 50 per cent.,
cm Ids grain, and mukcH about that
much on his chickens, ami if there is
any smuggling done it is done by the
Innocent and irresponsible biddies.
BLUE ASBESTOS.
Canada and Italy Have a Serloa
Competitor ta Africa.
Canadian and Italian asbestos will
find a serious competitor in the blue as
bostos recently discovered in the Cape
Colony, since the South African product
is less than half as heavy and furnishes
fibers considerably finer and longer
than any other, says the Detroit Tri
bune. The South African fiber has be)
worked into webs, which are but little
inferior to those made of vegetable
fiber, and are absolutely fireproof.
Twine, cord and rope made of this blue
asbestos will not only resist fire, but
also most of the known chemicals, cor
rosive vapors and atmospheric influ
ences. These qualities will open a
new field for the employment of asbes
tos fabrics in chemical laboratories, and
for the caulking of chemical apparatus.
A novel application of this material
is the working of blue asbestos fiber
into mattresses for hospitals. They
are cooler in summer and warmer in
winter than those made either of ani
mal hair or vegetable fiber, and no ver
min can live in this mattress. Experi
ments are now being made of working
this filler into cloth for firemen's ap
parel. Of course the long fiber blue as
bestos can also be employed for all the
uses to which white asbestos has been
put heretofore. While a trifle more ex
pensive, its superior qualities make it
well worth the difference.
CANNON BALL STORY.
Alfred GrUom Tell of a Narrow Es
cape In Alabama.
Alfred Grissom, the manager of the
Bummer excursion boats, has a cannon
ball story which he says is Gospel truth.
People in the excursion business have
a strict regard for veracity, and many
of his friends believe every word of it,
says the St. Louis Republic.
Several years ago, the story runs,
Mr. Grissom was in St. James parish,
La. He had occasion to visit a sawmill
where the big cottonwool! logs were be
ing cut into lumber. His attention was
attracted to a particularly large log,
when suddenly there was a loud crash,
like that of the teeth striking a nail.
Windows were broken, men shouted
and the machinery was stopped. Mr.
Grissom was not hurt as he had im
agined. Something had happened and
he stopped to see the cause. The big
log was removed from the rack and
split open. A large cannon ball was
imbedded in the center. The saw had
struck it and broke into a myriad of
pieces which flew in all directions. Five
pieces pnssed through his hat, one
struck his watch and glanced off, an
other hit a silver dollar in his vest
pocket and left a scratch along its sur
face. Luckily, none of the flying par
ticles struck his body or did other in
jury than break a few panes of glass in
the office compartment.
A S1UCK-UP CAT.
Kansas City Kitten That Fooled with
Vly Paper.
A small, gray kitten in Kansas City
walked back and forth in a store win
dow the other duy; conscious of her
graceful appearance she yf ted her feet
daintily and curled her tail up over her
back. Suddenly a noise in the store
startled her, and ehe lowered her head
and dropped! her tail, as she turned
stealthily to Investigate. This was a
mistake. For the tail came in contact
with n piece of sticky fly paper, and all
the efforts she made to remove it but
increased her discomfiture and humili
ation. She shook her lithe body, and the
tail was wagged vigorously, but the
paper held her faster and tighter than
It ever held a fly. She put her foresaw
down; it stuck. Her little hind paw
came to the rescue, and was held where
it fell. Frantic and mewing piteously,
nhe rolled over nnd over, till enwrapped
in a drapery of flypaper, she. tumbled
off the window platform and was gone
No one knew where or how, with but
two feet free and those on corners diag
onally opposite, she had managed to
get out of sight and hearing. Hut she
did it, and the flypaper went with her.
HE HAD A GLASS EYE.
Ulnnder of a I'liyali'lan That Caused
, Mncli Concern.
I Several victims of an accident were
taken to the hospital one day lately,
Bays the Cincinnati Kuquirer. Two of
them were thought to be seriously hurt.
A man, who may Ite called Smith, was
badly cut and bruihcd, nnd internal in
juries were feared. He had a bad heart,
nnd had not regained consciousness
when the ambulance reached the hos
pital. An Interne felt his pulse, and,
carefully pushing back the lid of one
of the eyes, ga.ed earnestly at it.
"Poor fellow, there's no hope for
him," he announced. "The pupil of his
eye is greatly dilated, and thnt'a a cure
sign where thern is heart trouble."
A little later one of Smith's friends
called at the hospital and inquired uUmt
liim. The young physician repeated
what he had isiiid before, explaining
the method by w hich he arrived at hit
conclusion.
"Which eye was it you looked at?"
queried the friend.
"The right eye."
"Well, there's a peculiarity about
Smith's right eye."
"That so? What is it?" inquired the
young doctor, with scientific interest.
"It's a glass etc," said Smith's friend,
and the next day Smith was discharged
from the hospital.

In the ContemjKirary Keview Mrs.
Emily Crawford, writing her reininis-

the purchase of one of the cleverest lit

The occasion of the buying of the pie
ture was a visit to the Palais de l'ln
dustrie in Paris. "Prince Albert sin
gled out us worthy of admiration a hor
rid little painting that had every qua!

or 'The llrnwl.' Huflians were shown
engaged in a deudly tussle. The tech
nique was marvelous. Meissonicr up to

painter. The emperor bought the
painting behind the queen's back for

her husband as birthday gift. The
subject was inuuspicious. It would
have startled an old 1 Ionian in the

cerned.

"What ought we to give this rnsval,

"I should say three years."
"What is your opinion, brother?" to
the assessor on the left.
"I should give him about four years."

PIGEONS FOB. TKAP SHOOTING.
Methods by Which They are Converted Into
Strong Fliers,
With tbe advent of winter nod the
proeprot of tbe first fall of enow tbe trap
shooting at livo birds begins. Ouder the
oriep air and the strong breezes that
nsually prevail during tbe season that
Jack Frost is iu evidence, the pigeons,
poor viotims of the fxpert gunners, tty
faster than in tbe warmer months. As
sooo as tbe autumn mua turn me
leaves to russet and gold the cultivation
of biids for tbe traps begins. Strong
flying birds are harder propositus for
tbe marksmen than less game pigeons,
and in maoy a contest a good, musoulBr
bird baa carried a load of shot beyond
the boundary nod been returned ss a
"lost bird," where a dove with a mini
mum of speed and endurance would be
able to fly but a few feet with a score of
shot as an additional weight to curry.
Tbe system of exercising the birds so
that tbey beoome strong and musoular is
ingenious. Tbey are trained to tly rust,
tbe work occupying abont a mouth, and
at tbe end of that time they are ss strong
as youog gulls. The system that is rec
ognized as Ibe best by many trap shoot
ers was introduced by Mr. Elliott, of
Kansas City, several years ago, end
daring tbe past three seasons has been
adopted in tbe east. .
It consists of allowing the birds tbe
tha freedom of a large cage about 100
feet long. Each moroiog and evening
two men with long whips, tbe lush being
a strip of red Annuel, enter tbe CBge, and
by frightening the birds, oomiel them to
fly continuously (or ao boor each session.
This method gives the birds tbe neoes
aary exercise to make them strong
enough to be a formidable mark for the
most expert gunner.
Another method for making fast flying
birds tbat is in vogue in many plaoes oo
Long island and in New Jersey is to feed
tbe young pigeons in the morning, and
then drive them out into the open. They
will fly about ootil they beoome hungry,
and Bgain return to tbe place where tbe
morning meal was given them la this
manner tbe birds are given tbe benefit of
natural flight in tbe open, and when
Anally orated aud shipped to the various
oluba, bave all the advantages of wild
pigeons in the matter of speedy flight.
Tbe popularity of pigeon shooting from
the trap is suob tbat great consignments
of birds are shipped each week during
tbe height of (he season from the west,
as well as from tbe states of New Jersey ,
Pennsylvania and Maryland and from
roosts on Long island.
Slate colored, or "blue" birds, as they
are technically termed, are Sought most
earnestly and 75 cents a pair is tbe pre
vailing price for pigeons of unit oolor
and tbat are guaranteed to be fast.
Ordinary pigeons are sold at 50 oeuts a
pair, and a it is known tbat the birdt
tbat esoape without being bit by the
marksmen at the traps return home at
Ibe earliest possible moment, it can be
seen tbat the breeder is easily ahead of
the game, for he is thus sometimes paid
a number of times for tbe same bird
Tbe more important shooting grounds
have as maoy as 3,000 birds on bnud at a
time in their sheds, or, more properly
osges. The method of capturing them
on tbe day of a tournament is unique.
Two or three of the assistance of tbe
priuoipal trapper, armed with a orate
aud au ordinary "soap" net that is
know almost exclusively as a weapon to
capture crabs and other deuizeus of the
deep, enter the shed. The pigeons, io
alarm, tW from one end uf tbe enclosure
to another, and are deftly snared in tbe
cot. A few quick twirls and the bird is
so bewildered that he is plucked from
tbe meshes of tha net aud thrust io tbe
orate ready to be wheeled out to the
Bring point before he ret lizes that he is
a prisoner. Spokane Review.

grade of tourist sleepers fur Pnoiflo Coast
serviue than at any previous time, The
largely iuoreasetl trslfu to this seotiou of

and id consideration of this the railroads
are establishing a service whtoh is ex

tbe wishes of the first class passuiers
served, bnt those who are traveling io
and from the east on eeoocd olass tiokels
are splendidly cared for. There was a
time when a tourist sleeper appealed to
a limited nnrobctr of people who were
traveling on the "oheap" order, iu every
meaning of the term. Now, however,
there has been a radical change. With
the better tourist sleepers io operation
the class of passengers has been im
proved, and one may uow travel upon
them and enjoy all tlie privileges of a
Brt-t clans sleeper at a greatly reduced
rate.

A Magnetic Island.
Everybody has read stories of mys
terious islands exercising an irresisti
ble 'attraction on ships passing near
them. These, of course, are pure in
ventions; but there is an island named
llornholm in the Baltic, eea near the
const of Denmark whose rocks, accord
ing to a Vienna journal, Der Stein der
Weisen, are so strongly magnetic that
they nfToct the compasses of passing
ships, even as far ns nine miles away.
In this manner llornholm may be said
to turn vessels out of their course, since
nn error of the compass needle may
cause a corresponding error in the
steering of a ship.
