VIII" Owns the Photograph?

Jusiir6 North's decision in n London
se3urt that private photographs are pri-
rate property is reassertion, or rather
. natural application, of principle
which should be familiar, unscrupulous
photographers have claimed the right to
tell and exhibit photographs of their
customers against their will, and there
have been legal opinions confirming this
extraordinary view. Thus it has been
held that the employment and payment
Of photographer to reproduce the feat
ures of "A private person, for the latter's
private purposes, gave the photographer
h right to use the negative for the pub
lication of photographs for public sale.
Justice North, however, declares the
photographer wholly in the wrong, and
hptly says that while the negative be-
longs TO the photographers the copyright
is vested in the person photographed.
This cminently sensible decision should
check practice common abroad. For
tunately, this evil has been less prevalent
here, although it exists, and American
courts, we believe, have decided that the
photographer has no right to make mer-
thandisc of the likenesses of private Gus
toners. Prank Leslies Newspaper.

Half Baby, nalf philosopher.

Horace Greeley boro his character in
his face--half baby, half philosopher.
The sweetest child that ever looked into
its mothers eyes had not q more benevo-
lent expression than hiI countenance
habitually wore. The worst portrait
does not quito obliterate IL; the best rcnd-
ers it imperfectly. The politician who
said, "A man who would hurt Horace
Greeley would strike his own mother"
roughly expressed the feeling which the
child-like part of his face often excited.
His voice, too, was tho pipe Of n child.
But above the eyes there was such noble
dome of head that Greek sculptor
would have been glad to take it for the
model of benevolent wisdom. His de-
meanor showed similar contrasts. From
that baby faco what torrents OF bad
words would come, with no moro malice
behind them than there is behind o child's
vehement crying when some ono has
broken its toy. With a pen in his hand
and subject before him suited to his
talents and disposition, as we'll rs to the
momentary needs of Tho Tribune, what
editor ever wrote moro cifectiycly?-

Tho Dead Came to Life,

A long lost brother, who was supposed
to lsa slssd. and ON whose estate l.atars Of
administration were granted to his sister
by Surrogate Rollings, of New York, in
February, 1887, has turned up alive and
healthy. Surrogate Ransom has revoked
the letters, and the property, largely in
creased through his sisters careful man.
agement, has been restored to the man
whose supposed death she had mourned.
His name 10 Pierre L. Beauron, and his
sister is Marie +. Jodrcy. He was born
in Switzerland forty-six years ago and
came to this country when he was seven
years old. He lived in Shohola, Pa,
until 1868, when no started for Havana.
He lived there three years, then started
for the Pacific coast, and few months
later departed for Rio Janeiro, where he
remained eighteen months. He next
went to India and lived there four years.
From there he went to Australia, where
no lived nine years. Then he proceeded
to Europe and remained in France seven
months and in Spain seven months more.
For over seven years prior to his return
to Shohola his sister had not heard OF
him.-Buifalo News.

a Vote of Thanks,

A village in New England camo into
possession of a neat and much needed
town hall, the gift of public spirited citi-
zens. When completed a meeting was
held TO dedicate the new building.
Speeches Were made by prominent citi-
zens, and special reference was naturally
made TO the chief benefactor and to those
who had been most active in forwarding
the enterprise.
One speaker mentioned the names of
five or six of these citizens, and sug-
gested that vote of thanks be rendered
them. This was done.
A moment later q little wien faced
old man arose In the back part of the
hall, and, in sharp, penetrating voice,
called:
"Mr. Cheerman! Mr.. Cheerman!"
The speaker being recognized, he pro-
ceeded:

The payment Of an insurance policy of

teamster, who was so thoroughly blown
away by the explosion of a wagon load
of nitro-glycerine which he was driving,
near Pleasantville, Pennsylvania, that
not more than q pound Of his body was
found, is being disputed by the COM
panies interested, on the ground that such
utter annihilation was impossible even
with so powerful an explosive. They
claim that the remains" found arc no
proof that Haggerty is dead. Interesting
testimony is being gathered to show that
nitro-glycerine has proved at times more
of an eraser of human identity than the

One of the most terrible, as it is also

nouncement in the Scottish papers of
Miss Edith Brydon's marriage in Inver-

the famous DIR. Brydon, of tho Afghan
massacre of January, 1S42-the one
survivor who, wounded and faint and
weary, after "A most perilous ride, reached

The writer has spent at least the better
part of his life growing and curing tea
and coffee, and however wanting he may
be in giving expression TO his ideas, he
is surely in Il position to advise the gen.
eral reader on subject with which lac is
well acquainted.
First, then, deal with reliable people;
and, secondly, buy what they consider
the purest and the most carefully pre-
pared tea and coffee they can supply you
with, without demanding the same at a
price at which you know yourself first
class produce cannot be imported.
If it should please you TO take this
little piece of advice, you will find that,
in the end, it will not prove in any way
extravagant, and it may add year OF

The driver proceeded, as had been his

his destination when these words from
lthe carriage window greeted him with
considerable force and abruptness: Look
here, driver; I'm tired of being driven
through all these alleys. You've done
bothing but go through them ever since
Se started. Now, get right on to ono of

he driver had enough self possession TO

THE SALVATION ARMY.
NOW THE ORGANIZATION IS REGARD.
GO IN ENGLAND AND AMERICA.

Cess 1fesre, Chief of the American Saliva
t1ss Army, and How no Was Requested
tsRssagn-<1cn. Booths Attempt TO unitc
ths Engllsh and American Forces.
There e something ludicrous in the
recent revolt against the authority Of
0en- Thomas L. Moore, commander-in-
chief of the Salvation Army, when one
considers how the action of those throw
ing of Gen. Moore's authority would he
considered II they were real soldiers In
Q real army. They wrote q letter TO the
general inviting him to resign, and then
Get UP headquarters for themselves.
Now, the Salvation Army Is organized
under the form Of n real army, and in
such any expression Of dissatisfaction
with the acts Of the commander, espe-
chilly in the face of the enemy-and the
Ealvationists are always In presence Of
mans arch enemy, Satan-would he
looked upon rs mutiny; and mutiny is
punishab1e with death.
Whether Gen. Moore or his accusers
be at fault, and however similar the
uniforms and titles Of the Salvationists
be to those Of men Of actual war, the
proceedings in the recent stand against
the general are hardly in accordance
with those prescribed for preferring
charges In the "Army Regulations"
How would it appear for the subordi-
nate officers in a real army in the field
to send n letter to its commanding gen
eral asking him TO resign, and setting up
headquarters Of their own and choosing
q commander to suit themselves What
would we have thought during the civil
war to hear Of the corps commanders OF
the Army Of tho Potomac requesting
Gen. McClellans resignation and putting
one Of their own number in his place?
The titles in the Salvation Army OF gen
eral and colonel and captain and lieuten-
ant may be very pleasant to those who
hold the offices, but tho "Army Rcgula-
tions" are quite too stringent for these
people who fight, not an enemy using
powder and lead, but one who uses the
enticcments of sin.
Gen. Booth is the head of the Salvation
Army in England. There tho army origi-
mated, and there It thrivcs far better than
in America. Tho fundamental principle
is to appeal 10 the people in the streets.
For this purpose the soldiers deem any
method Of attracting attention legiti-
mate. Drums, flies, tambourines, flaming
