vaIuable,, Waste.

Fs7.fll 81 -
Refners of nitrate Of silver for the
use of photographers, said one Of the
profession, have agents travelling con-
stantly about the country collecting the
waste clippings of sensitized paper that
accumulate in every photograph gal
lery. They buy all they can find and
pay for it in new nitrate, allowing the
photographer good round price for his
waste. The waste is shipped to the re-
fners, where the nitrate in the paper is
separated from it by chemical processes
and prepared for market again. This
re-refned nitrate is as good as it was
originally and is sold for just as much.
The refiners, Of course, make a big
profit out Of the waste, and the pho
tographer is able to get a good supply of
material for the scraps that would
otherwise DO of no use to him.
When one thinks Of the great num-
Der Of photograph galleries and studios
in the country and the fact that the
waste paper of them all is closely gath
cred by the refners at price that will
average 81 pound, he may get some
idea Of the proportions of business
that is utterly unknown outside of the
persons directly interested. Not only
the scraps Of silver sensitized paper,
but those Of the paper treated with
solutions Of gold are eagerly sought by
the refners, and the photographer is
always very glad to exchange his ac-
cumulation of, to him, worthless waste
for neat stock of valuable nitrate. -

Got Even With the Preacher.

A lawyer of this city tells story of
how he got even with a preacher. It
was ON the occasion of his second mar
riage. After concluding the ceremony
the minister took advantage of the
privilege accorded him by custom of
kissing the bride. While SO engaged
the groom suddenly imprinted a re-
sounding kiss ON the cheek of the min
ister's wife, who was standing immedi-
ately behind the wedding party.
The lady was indignant, and the min
lister asked for an explanation. Coolly
enough and in few words, the groom
expressed the opinion that it was poor
rule that would not work both ways
and that he had as much right to kiss
the preachers wife as the former had
to kiss the bride.-LouisviIle Post.

A correspondent of the New York
Times accepted the invitation OF Mr..
Raddatz recently, and in company with
MIN took short but impressive ride in
the boat. Only partial propelling power
was in the boat at the time, as on ac-

inventor did not deem it expedient to
go to the expense of placing full power
IN the ship. The experience OF one riding
in submarine boat is very pleasant,
providing OF course the thoughts OF what
might happen should machinery fail to
do it's work are cast aside. The passen-
ger is hardly cognizant of the fact that
the boat is gradually sinking, the boat
moving backward and forward but very
little. The trip was made where the
water reaches a depth Of about fifteen
feet, which, however, is deep enough,
especially in the mind of the skeptical
passenger. A stiff wind had been blow
ing all day, so that the water in the
river was somewhat rolled, thus render
ing it somewhat difficult to obtain a
good view of the bed Of the river, but
with the aid of the powerful Gearchiight,
q hasty glance was taken. Only few
fish were>in sight, the sound OF the es-
Gaping air coming in contact with the
water evidently frightening the majority
of the finny tribe. The river bottom
presented a desolate appearance. Huge
stumps protruded rbnve the mud, while
largest tones decked the grol d, ere and

by the ship, which was under perfect
control, after sswhich.ss the ascent was
made, very slowly at first, 1.-THE speed
being continually increased. The ship
moved very smoothly over the course, all
the, machinery seeming to work to per-
lection. The air in the boat was appar-
emily not different from that in any

Her Scheme Failed.

The latest instance of crime bringing
its own punishment comes, ON the au-
thority Of DR.. Leonard Guthrie, from
Italy. An Italian woman had a hus-
band, and the husband had the dropsy.
But the dropsy did not work quickly
enough. The woman put toad into
her husbands wine to poison him. But
the poison which the toad's skin Sc
cretes has an active principle-phrynin
which much resembles digitalis
which is the best possible remedy for
dropsy pending on heart disease. So
instead OF killing her husband, she re-
stored him to health. San Francisco

FIRE ON STEAMER PORTLAND.
A Blaze Which Was Promptly Discovered
and Extinguished.

Yesterday afternoon fire was discov-
cred on the steamer Portland, of the
Steam Packet Company's fleet. The
steamer was lying at her wharf in Bo S.

the fire broke out near the engine room
and was extingushed without general
alarm. 1t was reported here last night
that several staterooms were burned out
and that the blaze was extinguished by
the aid of a fire boat before much dam
age was done. Owing to the storm, last

No action was taken on the matter al
though II was the topic of discussion which
