The Cameras First Work in

The following is the account, as pub
lished ten years ago, of the first daguer-
reotype picture, taken by Professor
Morse, inventor of the telegraph: Its
first trial he made during the summer
of 1888 upon a plate Of plated copper
found in hardware store. It was
about the size of common playing card
The professor adjusted the apparatus at
back window in the stairway at the
back of the University of New York,
which fronts on Washington square
the same University where the lamented
Winthrop used to live, and where he
wrote his charming stories. The OBJ
ject taken was the Unitarian church,
now the Globe theater, which stands OPP
posite the New York hotel on Broadway
The hotel was not then built, and all the
space, now a solid mass of houses, be-
tween the university and the church,
was unoccupied, so that Professor Morse
had clear view of the church. With
intense curiosity and much excitemen-
he adjusted the camera, prepared the
chemicals, and proceeded to take the
picture. He was successful in obtain
ing an impression, although, owing to
the impurities of The silver upon the
plate, it was defective. Yet it assured
Professor Morse that the process was
genuine. This was the first daguerreo-
type ever taken in America.

Tattooing 8 Child's Eye.BaIl.

An ingenious and skillful operation
was performed upon little girl recently,
at st. Joseph's infirmary, Louisville.
The child had previously suffered from
an attack OF what is technically termed

with the vision by obstructing the rays
of light as they pass into the eye, and at
the same time produces an Objectionable
deformity " hich no one wishes to have.
The objects to be secured by the opera
ton were two-fold: First, to remove
the deformity; second, to restore the
vision to the affected eye. The first OBJ

The child was put under the influence
of n anesthetic, and then, drop of ink

Death on the Cars.

The Twenty eighth street crossing of the
Pennsylvania railroad at Pittsburg Pa.
has again been the scene OF a irlghttul disaster,
which was attended with almost as great
loss OF lite as were the famous riots there in
July. 1877. 1t was the last day of the exposi.
ton, and thousands Of persons flocked to the
city to see the closing exercises. In addition,
the Democrats bad a demonstration which
brought maj ching clubs from all the surround
my country. After the parade WIS over, just
before midnight, the first section OF Wallis
accommodation train, going east, left the
Union depot crowded to its utmost capacity.
The back platform was so full that the
signal lights were hidden from view. When
the train reached Twenty eighth street
it stopped to allow the special train,
which was block ahead, to get out OF the
way. Ten minutes after the fl st section LETT
the depot the second section started out at the
.ate OF ten miles an hour. Owing 10 the crowd
on the back platform OF the first section the
signal lights were obscured, and consequently
the engineer OF the second section did not see
the train ahead of him until he was SO near
it that his train could not be checked in time
to prevent collision, and the engine went
crashing into the rear coach Of the first Sec
ton. The engine buried itself to the very cab
windows among the screaming, suffering men,
women and children, managing all who were
tive was burst off by the shock, and the scald-
ing water and steam poured over the occupants
OF the car, rs though bent on completing the
horrible work that had gone before. The
scene that followed beggars description.
Shrieks and eroans rent the air, and min gled
with the Kissing of steam from the disabled
locomotive.
Atelephone message was sent to the mayors
Office tor wagons, and in short time corps
OF physicians, the mayor and a squad of police
were on the spot to render all the assistance
they could. Nine persons were killed out
right and nineteen more died in the next
twenty-tour hours. The wounded reached
thirty-five, of which twenty ere not expected
to recover The wounded were carried to the
West Pennsylvania hospital, short distance
from the scene of the disaster.
Some OF the scenes at the hospital were
heartrendipg One in particular was peculi-
arly sad. Hurrying back and forth from
one ward to another, pushing through the
crowd of anxious persons was an aged woman
named Hetzel, from the East End. She had
three children on the train, two boys and
girl. The younger boy and his sister were
lying in the hospital shockingly burned and
dis6gured by the scalding steam. The broken
hearted mother could scarcely leave the bed
side OF one long enough to weep over the
other and while she was striving to alleviate
Their sufferings, her first-born boy lay crushed
and dead 10 the round house, and she knew it
not. She only knew that he was missing, and
she looked with tear-dimmed eyes into the
face of every newcomer in the hope that she
might find him living.
Robert Pitcairn, superintendent of the road,
says If the rules had not been disobeyed the
accident would not have occurred.
