EDISON'S LATEST.
Remarkable Results Attained in Instan
tancous Photography.

Remarkable Results Attained in Instan-
famous Photography.
Thomas A. Edison has just COM
pleted a series of experiments in in
Simultaneous photography that have
metwith the most remarkable success.
although the results attained have no
commercial value SO far as is now
known. Mr.. Edison conceived the
idea of reproducing, before an audi
ence, not only the speech of a lecturer
by the aid of the monograph, but The
lecturer himself. To attain this end
he arranged a mechanical camera so
that instantaneous photographs with
an exposure of from the 250th to the
1000th of a second could be taken in a
series following n another at the
rate Of from eight to ten a second.
BY an ingeniously constructed me-
chanism the speech, and the personal
appearance, g~esticulation and facial
expression are simultaneously epro-
duced by the photograph and stere-
opticon. The Photographic pictures
follow one another at the rate of one
to twenty a second, exactly stimulating
the appearance of the lecturer, while
at the same time the photograph re-
produces the speech. When the ex-
periments were begun it was found
that the imperceptlble tremor of the
laboratory, caused by the moving ma
chinery, was sufficient to interfere
with the experiments, and to obviate
il a special building was erected, and
the camera was placed on q solid pier
having q rock foundation.

LUXURY IN TRAVEL.
Handsome New Buffet Sleeping Cars on
the West shore.

Handsome New Buifet Sleeping Cars on
the West shore.
The West Shore has just completed arrange
ments with the Wagner Palace Car Company 10
place in the service on that line some OF the
handsomest buffet sleeping cars that have ever
been run. These cars are entirely new and nave
been built ct the Wagner works, Buffalo. me
first of these new cars was placed in service oat-
urday last on the New York aud toronto
through line. 1t might be well to mention right
here that the West shore is the only lne Whlch
runs sleeping cars without change between inc
above points. These cars are entirety uinerent
from and superior TO the old style buffet sleeper
and are fitted with such modern conyenlences
as to make q journey via the west Snore en-
1oyable, while the occupants OF the car nave al
most all the comforts of home. The cars are
/ richly carpeted throughout, and the upholstery
is of the very finest material ana tastetuny Sc
lected. The woodwork is Of light mahogany,
giving a bright and cheerful appearance TO the
interior of the car. There are ten sections
smoking room, state room and buffet, also
ladies' and gents toilet. The seats have high
backs, and each section is provided with a NOV
able table, on which the buffet lunches are
served. Electric bells are also provided for each
section. All of the interior metal work, with
the exception of the lamps, is nickelplated.
| The lamps ore of polished brass, and there is one
TO each section. These give 3 very brilliant ef-
feet to the car when lighted, and make it posi-
BILE to read without the least strain to the eyes.
The state room is provided with an annex,
which contains toilet and wasn-stand for the ex-
elusive use of the occupants Of the state room.
The buffet is much larger than ordinary, and is
located next to the smoking room. The interior
Of the buffet, seen through an oval bevel-edged
glass which reaches from floor to ceiling of the
car, and through which the pretty decorated
china shows to good effect. The smoking room
is one of the features of the car. as it is quite
roomy and provided with easy chairs. tete-a-
tete and single, which are upholstered in plush.
The cars are vestibuled and are furnished with
steam heat and hot and cold water throughout.
Patrons of the West Shore will find that the dis
comforts of travel are reduced to a minimum by
the conveniences which are constantly being
added to the West Shore service. At present
there is only one car in service, which leaves
New York every other day at five p. M, but
it is expected to have the other car to complete
the New York and Toronto line in service in a
