A NOTABLE DISCOVERY,

If the truth is told, MT. Frederick E. Ives of Philadelphia has discovered way to reproduce natural colors in a photo graph. Mir. Ives has gained his success by striking out in a new path. He has conducted his Investigations upon lines indicated by the discovery, within a com paratively few years, that the same effects of color may be obtained from widely different causes. In other words, the modern theory of light distinguishes be- tween spectrum colors and primary color sensations There are three primary color sensations, red, green and blue, and the varying combination of these pro- duces all the infinite variety of color effects known to the eye. Mir. Ives obtains three photographic mega tives of the same object in such a way, according to orthochromatic methods, that each represents in it's light and shade the degree to which the object excites a single primary color sensation. From these negatives lantern slides positives are made, and the three images are projected from three separate lenses simultaneously upon screen, 80 that they are exactly superimposed; one in red light, another in green light, and another in blue violet light. In this way the various lights select from the corresponding photographs the different colors and values, so that the image upon the screen corresponds almost exactly with the original.
 This discovery will add much to the use fitness of photography. It has long been eagerly sought.

vice on the upper river was tied up at Ischang, waiting for permission to ascend further. The Chinese have finally de- clared Chung-King to be open to foreign trade, and it is now No. 2S in the list of open ports. They have done this on con- dition that England relinquish her claim to the right to navigate the upper Yanktse by steam. China agrees, however, that whenever Chinese boats, propelled by steam, are allowed to go to the great city, the subjects of Great Britain may also have the same privilege.
 A simple invention has lately been in troduced in England which bids fair to considerably reduce the amout of fuel re- quired to generate a given quantity of steam power. This new device is exceed. ingly simple, consisting merely in having long parallel ridges of iron made in the boiler tubes. It is found by experience that these absorb very much more of the heat passing through the tubes than is the case when the latter have a smooth inner surface and, in turn, give this out to the wa ter circulating around them. It is claimed that by this change saving is made oi about 10 per cent. in the consumption oi fuel-a claim which, if it can be main tained in general practice, will tend to ap preciably decrease the cost of those forms of transportation and production wher' steam power has to be employed.
 If the steel railroad tie is general, adopted it may be good thing for tn forests of this country. It is easy to se
 what a saving might be made by the sub stitution of metal ties throughout tn country when we learn from Chief Fernov of the forestry division of the departmen of agriculture. that about fifty million acres of wood land are required annual. to supply our track beds, and when we re fleet that this amount must increase ever. year with the constantly growing railwa, mileage. Fifty million acres comprise al area nearly twice that of the State of Ohio and it is said that fully fifteen per cent O all the timber used in the United State goes into ties. Again, Q large portion O this immense amount is from thrift young trees, specifications usually callin for timber from trees that will yield onl one tie to the cut. One-sixth as much nor wood is used for bridges, ,trestles and othe railroad construction.

 The nebula in Orion, Saturn and the Moon are indeed suggestive to change types, they may be called, of the first stage, the middle, and the last that matter passes through in the long process of the evolu- tion of worlds. And, of all changes, that change has most interest for us which af- fects our own planet, the Earth; it has reached later stage than Saturn, though not so late stage as the moon; but only in long ages and by minute effects will fur ther changes be noticed.
 Ages hence it may be discovered that there is some slight changein the Earths or bit; or Mercury, yet nearer the Sun than we, may be seen to pursue smaller orbit than now, and the terrible fact may come home to man that we are drawing nearer the Sun. Time goes or, and the tropics become too hot for existence, and cooler regions find wei come change to warmth.
 Age by age goes by, and the end is, wis ibly no nearer; but the figures of astrono- mers only too surely tell their tale.

All springs of water fail, and the rivers alvin l de down to streamlets, and trickle slowly over their stony beds, and now scarcity oi water is added to scarcity of food. Those
 who escape from the famine perish by the
 drought, and those who escape the from the drought are reserved for a fate mort ! awful yet For time the few remaining

Holiday Amusements.


An appropriate and very strong attrac-
ton is to be presented at Taylor Opera
House, Trenton, this week. 1t Is Neil
Burgess play, "The County Fair" which
is IN Its third year in New York. 1t is a
story of country life, like the cold Home
stead, /" and is equally as successful. There
is no more attractive and humorous part
in its present success than that of Abigail
Prue, the CHEEKY yet practical spinster.
There is no truer picture of homely New
England life pictured on the stag to-day
than that to be seen In ''The County Fair. "
The realistic items in this production
are cleverly put on the stage, and the
scene of the old barn, with its hay, horses,
COWS and husking bee and country dance,
is one of the features of the play The
mechanical as well "a the dramatic climax
OF 1.-THE County Fair" is, Of course, the
great horse race, which, with three tho
keys, and actually galloping mile, is
promised to surpass in realism anything
ever seen on the local stage. BY means
OF an original mechanical continuance
which rapidly passes under the horses feet
an effect exactly like that of a real race is
produced, and which is so exciting as to
fairly raise an audience from their seats
with enthusiasm.

The Pennsylvania Railroad Company
is sending strict orders to all passenger
conductors in reference TO passing child
rem over five years and under twelve years
of age free. They quite recently dis
charged one of their best conductors for a
violation of this rule. 1t appears they
have detectives on the different branches
of their great road watching, and they
give fair warning to all that the rule must
be obeyed. Children under FIVE years of
age are carried free, over five years ut
one-half rate tickets, over twelve years
full fare. Any parties wishing to travel
and take their children with them had
better heed the warning, as the conduc.
tors must carry out this order or off goes
their heads. Get your tickets and be
sure you are right before you start from
the home station.

The Columbia Cycle Calendar.

By far the most valuable business calen-
dar for 1891, aud entirely unique in de-
sign, is the Columbia Cycle Calendar and
Stand, issued by the Pope Manufacturing
Co., of Boston, Mass. The Calendar is
in the form of II pad containing 366 leaves,
each 81 2i inches one for each day of
the year, to be torn off daily, and one for
The entire year. At the lower end of each
leaf is a blank for memoranda, and as the
leaves are only fastened at the upper end,
any leaf can be exposed No stub is left
when the leaves are torn off. The pad
rests upon stand, containing pen rack
and pencil holder, and when placed upon
the desk the entire surface OF the date
leaf is brought directly and kept constant
ly before the eye, making 1t impossible to
overlook date or memoranda. The stand
is made of stained wood, mounted with
raised letters in brass, thus forming an
ornamental paper weight. The day OF
the week and the day Of the year, together
with the number of days to come, are
given, and each slip bears short para
graph pertaining to cycling and kindred
subjects. These paragraphs have been
carefully collated from leading publica-
tons and prominent writer's, the larger
number Paving been specially written for
this purpose Although this ia the sixth
issue of the Calendar, all the matter is
fresh and new, comprising notable events
in cycling, opinions Of physicians and
clergymen, hints about road making, and
numerous other topics, the whole being
enough to make fair-slzed volume when
printed 10 book type.
