THIS GREAT oBrUsENEss OF ANGLE
in the perspective Of pictures made with wide
angle lenses is sometimes the cause Of most
unsightly and ridiculous pictorial failures. It
will be seen at once that the objection to using
very wide-angle lenses is that, owing to this
great obtuseness of angle Of the perspective
lines, distant objects will appear unnaturally
dwarfed in size, while those near at hand will
come out immensely larger than they ought to.
few trials on street views with lens includ-
ing. say, eighty degrees of angle, with promi-
nent objects close In the foreground, will soon
prove the truth Of what we have been saying,
and sometimes well-known localities will be 80
changed in the photograph that no one would
recognize them. We are thus met by the par
adox that the perspective of the photograph,
while mathematically correct, is false to the
eye.
These ideas Of perspective will be found very
useful in photographing architectural subjects,
wide-angle lenses often being indispensable
here. Caution must be observed in using them
on these subjects, however, for if the building
stands in confined positions, where there is no
room to move the camera backward, the pic
ture will have an unnatural effect, and might
be compared to the eye of an observer trying
to see something that was too close for con-
venlence.
IN PoRTRAITURE,
the perspective Will suffer very much II the
distance between the sitter and the lens be too
small, and the lens Of too wide an angle. In
this case, the cheeks will look too narrow in
proportion to the length of the face, while the
hands and feet will be absurdly larger than
they ought to be if at all obtruded. The head,
and indeed the whole figure, will look more
rotund and more ife-like if a fair distance
say twice the sitter's heights kept between
the lens and the sitter. If this should give too
small picture, lens of longer focus will
have to be used. Objects look broader when
taken near at hand with wide-angle lenses.
Interior views Of buildings, halls, &C., where
there ID plenty of room to keep the camera
well back, will not be found difficult, but the
interiors of small private houses and rooms
Will often be very unsatisfactory subjects be-
cause there is not room for the camera to be
set well back and give lifelike, natural effect.
Photographs OF long, narrow objects will be
great failures in the pictorial point of view il
the camera be brought too close, and SO that
the nearer portions are unduly magniied
while the more distant become dwarfed in size.
Here we see one of the principal reasons why
the photographer should have lenses of differ
ent focus, so that if he is compelled to take an
unfavorable point of view he may not be con-
fined to one focus and ange.-ELIerslie Wallace

ANOTHER PROMINENT DEFECT
In photographs, taken a whole is that thew

made near to churches with high steeples-
here we must either have long, narrow plate,

THE LOCAL RESULT.

With twenty two out of thirty-three
precincts to hear from Thos. b. Adams,
Republican candidate for the legislature,
has Sc majority over Henry Altman, the
Democratic candidate. 1t was confidently
asserted that MIR. Adams would leave the
town with several hundred majority and
that il he had less than $50 he would be
badly beaten.
The result in the town was n general
surprise. Mr.. Adams had a majority Of
only 81 votes, which is the best possible
indication of the popularity of Mr.. Alt
man where he is best known and the I'M
wearying activity Of his friends. So far
as heard from in the country Mr.. Adams
has gained thiry-ive votes, chiefly in
three precincts. HIS election, however,
is by no means yet assured. The returns
which will be received to day may very
reasonably be expected to entirely change
the complexion OF things.
A list of the precincts yet to be heard
from and the vote which they cast two
years ago may be Of some interest: Arco-
la east "a; Collins 26; Egbert SO: Fair
bank 81; Hartville 49,; Hawk Springs 40
Hubert 20; Hauphof 81: Islay II; Little
Bear 81; Little Horse 43; Moran 20.
Phillips %; Patrick. I6; Rawhide %
Silver Crown "a; Swedish Home GO; Up
per Horse 40; Whestland IS; Wendovcl
As; Walker IA; Willow Creek IL.
OF course nothing like the number Of
votes indicated were cast yesterday, but
the list shows plainly enough that any
any Growing before the woods are passed
may be premature.

THE GENERAL RESULTS.

The Democrats have certainly every
reason to feel proud over the general re-
suits of the elections held throughout the
country yesterday.
Ohio seems to be Democratic beyond
any doubt, even the hide bound Western
Reserve showing gains for Campbell.
Foraker is in the soup. and for the sake
of pure politics we hope he will stay there.
Iowa, the great Republican stronghold,
shows such great Democratic gains that
even such Republican papers as Assis-
tant Postmaster G General Clarkson's Des
Moines Register Las grave doubts as to
the result.
1t is a great year for the Democrats.
