MIDNIGHT PHOTOGRAPHS.

Departing Audience of the Broadway

raphy.
Mr.. lockwood, the well-known Pho
tographer, has conceived and success
fully carried out a new departure in
his Art, which seems to be a defiance
ofall previous Photographic conditions.
As good pictures can now be made at
midnight as in the blaze of the noon
day sun. A photograph of the audi
ence of the Broadway Theatre, was
recently taken between eleven and
twelve o'clock at night, as they were
leaving the building. The means for
accomplishing this result is a new
pyrotechnic compound which Mr..
lockwood has just introduced. The
possibilities of the morning papers
publishing in picture form, the events
of The preceding day and night are
now manifest. Mr.. lockwood prophe-
sled this, some years ago and now sees
his dreams accomplished. With the
resources of this Art it will be well for
the young man about town to be sure
that he goes to the theatre with his
own girl, instead of some other fell
lows sweetheart.
