A New Power in Photography

At the exhibition of the Camera,
club just held in London, H. Van der
Weyde, whose name has been asso-
ciated with some OF the most beauti-
full effects ever obtained in photo.
graphy, exhibited for the first time q
remarkabIe machine which he calls
"Photocorrector." BY this machine
he claims to be able to correct on the
negative such defects as abnormally
large hands or feet. deficiencies In
stature, and other things which SO
irritate the vanity of sitters.
Hitherto these matters have been left
to the operator, who has rem
edied them by putting q small man
by very small chair. so that he will
large hands and feet as far as posi-.
BILE from the leDg. Hence the sitter
has had to be arranged" In most
uncomfortable position, and undergo
physical IS we'll as mental torture.
Mr.. Wander Weyde's vention en-
ables the most minute changes to be
made in any part of the picture. An
eye can be made fuller or rounder,
the I'm shapeliness of q nose can be
modified, and the fullness of the
cheeks can be accumulated or dimin-
ished at the desire of the sitter. It
may be doubted, whether photogra-
pliers will show much alacrity In
awaiting themselves of an invention
which would seem to increase their
responsibilities to such an appalling
extent. Another remarkable outcome
OF modern inven ton Is the practice of
com bining skies and landscapes from
landscapes from different negatives,
and the principle is being applied to
figure and landscape work with
truly remarkable results.

Philadelphia Telegraph:
The wedding of Lady Agnes Field
ing with Mr.. De TraffOrd was q quiet
one, though but for this knowledge
one would have been struck with the
splendor of the service at the Oratory,
with Archbishop Vaughan officiat-
ing, with o train OF dtminutive
bridesmaids and groomsmen, and
with the smart crowd Of people who
went on to Queens Gate after the
ceremony. Lady Agnes Fielding lost
her father, the Earl of Deubign, early
in the wear, and this was the reason
of the wedding being classed
among The "quiets." The bride, who
was given away by her brother, the
present Earl. wore a gown of white
satin. draped with magnificent Brus-
sells lace. Her train of attendants,
eight tiny boys and girls, were in pic
tures1ue costumes copied from Vans
dyk's portrait of the children of
Charles l. The little girls wore white
satin and the boys gray velvet, both
being trimmed with lace. Owing to
the deep mourning of the brides TAM
lily, the majority of those present wore
shades which conventionalIy betrsy
grief, but 1t was surprising what q
bright effect was given by the
variety OF grsys and violets,
steel and jet embroidery. One of
the brides sisters wore gray BeHga-
line trimmed with gray FUR and violet
velvet; another wore gray satin made
with a Wattesu train, with black vel
vet introduced to form zouave on
the trout OF the bodice The bride.
gruom'- lovely sister-in-law, Lady de
Traffbrd, wore the same costume as
at Miss Forbes wedding and Looked
quite as nice as on the former
occasion, while his mother, Lady
Annette de Trafford, was in gray
brocade draped with old cream lace.
Lady Denbigh was in gray embroided
in silver.
One really could not but feel very
sorry for the bride as she and her
newly made husband listened to ths
sermon of Father Bernard Vaughan
the Archbishop's brother; for, though
he was very eloquent, he laid so
much stress on the subordinate posi-
ton of women as wives that any
woman among the congregation
possessed of strong views on the sub
iect must have felt inclined to get up
and contradict him. I always think
that the Jew words" spoken by the
priest on these occasions should liter.
ally be few, for the moments are an
amateur purgatory to the newly
welded pair who are being preached
at. Nevertheless, [ would rather
have the sermon than the speeches,
which were not dispensed with, as
usual, at the breakfast.

Grabs Putting ON Winter Clothes.


Mr.. Humphrey BENNETT, q piscatory
student of Bayonne, N. j., is interest.
ed In singular ipectacle now pre-.
senting itself daily along the oozy
shore Of Newark Bay. The hermit
crabs, Mr.. bennett asserts, are trying
on their winter clothing. ~
"You know" says the student,
"thst the hermit crab Is born with Q
bare tail. and as the creature grows
older he has to find a shell to protect
his candal extremity. He generally
chooses q discarded whelk shell and
pushes his tail into 1t. AS the crab
Increases In size he is, of course, COM
PEELED to change his dress, and at
this season they ali appear to be look.
ing for new wearing apparel.
1.-THE shore of Newark Bay is
. bundantly supplied with empty
whelk shells, and it Is very ANUS
ing to watch the crabs trying to Sc.
lect q neat fit. They find as much
difficulty In suiting themselves as
does Murray Hill dude, and q crab
will push his tail INTO whelk shell,
drag it around for short time to a..
certain If 1t feels quite comfortable,
and then shake it off and look abou Z
for another. No shell that has q hol g
in it CT is imperfect In any particular
is ever chosen, and the crab tina t Is
at all particular as to the style and fit
of his garment will try on q dozen
dresses before he finds one that Is
Just right" 1t is very funny.
Sometimes two crabs want the
same coat, and then there is q battle
royal. A few days ago I saw one
crab kill another in one of these en-.
counters, and then he tried on the
coveted dress and found that it was
several sizes too small for him 1t
would, perhaps, have fitted the crab
that was dead. .a. .
On another occasion I'saw two
hermit crabs eagerly following q
third, who was about to cast off q
shell that he had Outgrown. Each of
his pursuers wanted it, and so strong
was the rivalry between them that
they both fell upon the third crab to
help him disrobe more rapidly. In
their Zeal they tore him to pieces be-
tween them, and then one killed the
other In fight for the shell. He
found that two lives had been sacri-
feed In vain, for another season at
least must elapse before his tail would
have grown to the dimensions of that
covering. He left 1t at the approach
of q larger crab, whose rear end fitted
into it,"

MEN and WOMEN

Many men and women who sho time
ago thought themselves of strong physique,
splendid intellect and nerves of iron marvel
at their feeling of exhaustion and total ack
OF interest in their business affairs. They
are overpowered by sense of lassitude,
languor and dullness Their Wanted
strength and self control seem to have left
them when most needed; already they have
experienced lack of old time vigor, a GER
tain lack of confidence, and nervous appre-
hensiOn instead of the old courage; con-
slant feeling of las >itude and waning am
bitten: their blood is impoverished, their
eyes lusterless, they are haunted with mel
anchOly and frequently have the "bues;"
they feel their vitality wssting day by day
and night by night; they are easily discOur-
aged, irritable, morose and unhappy; plea
ures tire and friends bore them.
DO you know what your trouble is, or
what you are coming to? Come at once and
consult DR.. j. N. Hathaway, the successful
specialist of this city, and hs will tell you
also how t. get cured. Do not delay.

CONGRESS should put IL forever out
of the power of private corporations
on individuals to hire armed forces
for any purpose. An act of outlawry
should be passed on all such armed
bodies and every force Of the govern.
ment called out for their suppression
and the punishment Of those wh1
employ them. It is the province o.
the state and the nation, and theirs
alone, to employ armed forces.

THE Fort Worth Gazette, having
been safely corralled in Hogg's pen,
is over anxious to administer on the
effects of the republican party. The
Gazette can rest in peace. The repub-
lican party has neither gone to the
pawn shop nor to the auction block
but is very hopeful Of selling the
democratic concern out of its federal
house aud home in about four years.

NICARAGUA CANAL.

1t makes big difference whose OK
Is gored. When the republicans In
congress, in accord with the recon-
mendations of President Harrison,
advocated the guaranteeing of the
Nicaragua canal bonds to the extent
of 500, 900, 900 there was al instant
and general expression of disapproval
on the part of the democratic MEM
bers of that body, aud also on the
part Of the democratic press. 1t mat
tered not that the advantage of MAIN
tanning control of that work by this
government was shown to be of the
greatest Importance to us as COM
mercial nation, or that there was no
risk to this government In that in
dorsemept as the concessions were
ample to compensate for any actual
cost that might be saddied on the
United States, these considerations
were set aside and the proposit ton con
demned in the democratic press and
councils. No sooner, however, has the
government passed intosthe hands of
the democracy than they are eager to
do the very thing that they opposed
when advocated by the republicans.
This question is brought wildly to
notice by the convention that is being
held in New Orleans today, for the
purpose of consolidating public at
tention and organizing public effort
to the end that this very endorse
ment of the Nicaragua Canal bonds
by the United States government
might be approved by the act of con-
gress. Marked copies of democratic
journals all over the south are re-
ceived at this Office setting forth the
advantages that would accrue to this
government in the endorsement of
these bonds. as thereby the United
States would control the canal. The
readers of the LIGHT do not need to
he told that this journal has always
advocated the action of congress in
accordance with the suggestion
of the President. The mileage
that is would save to our,own navy
In passing from the Atlantic to the
Pacific sesboard, as also the immense
shortening of the distance from New
York to San Francisco for our mer
chant mi r.ne, has on more thansone
occasion been stated. That there
was also a special benefit to the Gulf
states to be derived from opening
this canal has been demon strated, in
view of the direct route that it would
give our gulf trade TO the South
Americas, opening up their commerce
to the Gulf ports instead of to the
more eastern seabord. There is little
doubt that the republicans in con-
gress will be more broad minded
than their democratic bretheren have
been and that they will put no OBJ
stc 'Ie n the way of such action by
congress as will put this great work
on it's ieet and give the United State
the control of this waterway between
the Atlantic and the Pacific seas.
