"A Focus OF INDUsTRY.-Altoo-
ma, in the heart of the Alleghanies,
is a town created by arailroad, and
is a striking example Of what a
purely industrial community can be
made. 1t is the workshop and cen
tire of equipment and administra-
tion Of the Pennsylvania railroad.
The road, with its connections, EN-,
ploys $4,000 hands, of whom 5000
are always at work here, making
and repairing the various parts of
this gigantic machine Of transpor
tation. There are forty acres Of
car and machine shops, where 100
locomotives are built and 250 re-
paired every year. Some Of these
engines weigh forty tons each. The
car-shops use up 100000 feet of
lumber a yard, and make 1000
freight cars and 100 passenger cars,
costing from s25 to $1,000 each,
every year. The railroad company
has q very perfect chemists labora
tory and testing establishment, in
which some interesting critical ex-
periments have been successfully
carried out, and in connection with
this, or supplementary to it, is a
school for the education OF young
men especially for duties connected
with the business OF railroading.
The school promises to become one
of the most valuable adjunets to
this gTeatsbusiness in the near flu
ture. Theientire town affords one
Of the most striking and beautiful
instances of organized and syste-
matte industry which the world
can show.

As suggestion. on road matters are in
order call attention TO route which, ii
established, will be gilmore practical ben.
eft to Austin'5 commerce than any one
leading from the city, save perhaps the
Fredericksburg road. By the present
mode of travel il Is twenty-five or TWEEN
ty-six miles to Bagdad. with bad roads
more than tWo-thirds of the route. The
commissioners court Of this county has
recently opened road leading TO the
river at Mount Bounell, ami thence up
the river to the mouth of Bull creek
There is a public road now extending
up Bull creek to the source of its left
branch, IT which place there is 4 hill,
which can be fixed at very small expense.
After you pass up the hill. there can he
made road, almost absolutely free from
mud, intersecting the present Bagdadnnd
Burnet road, about FIVE miles above Jol-
lyyille. This route is ut least i've miles
nearer than the present route by Jolly
Vile, and there Is as much mud between
Sieder's Springs and Mount Bonnell as
there is on the next fifteen miles OF the
road. After reaching the river, the road
is as level as a prairie road, free from
mud in wet weather, within few feet of
wood and water in dry weather, and
with tue present condition of roads, the
trip can be made from Bagdad to Austin
in less than half the time it-takes around
by Jollyville. The road TO Jollyville can
not be made good one except at very
great expense and work, and If this new
route is opened am satisfied there will
be no trouble on the Jollyville road. This

Photography by Electric Light.

Something new in photography is
The application of the electric light
to the printing of negatives. Mr.
John 4. Scholten is the first to use
it. and is delighted with the success
of the idea. Henceforth he will be
practically Independent of sunlight
and can print photographs all night
if he so desires, great thing in q
busy time. lie was found by re-
porter for The Republican last night
in the rooms of c. Conrad Il Co,
bottling department, on sixth street,
where there is an electric light, OF
5000 candle power which does the
work, but not nearly so rapidly us
the sun. To-day light viii be ar
ranged with power of 10000 can
dies. which Mr.. Heisler and Mr..
Scholten think will dc as rapid. work
as old Sol himself. n temporary
stand has been erected for the
frames, and a white cotton screen.
which completes the entire fixtures.
The new arrangement will be a great
convenience for photographers, and
will largely increase the facilities OF
all who have the necessary lights
and machinery. Bad and cloudy
weather will then be no longer
dreaded by picture makers.
