phOtOgraphing In COlOrs.

Considerable attention is being paid in
Paris to the new method originated by q
member of the National Academy Of
France for photographing in colors, the
process being pronounced, from scien-
tifc point of view, the most interesting
ever invented in this line. Briefly, the
operator lays upon a sheet of glass very
delicate, translucent film OF chloride of
silver, and against this film is placed
vessel containing mercury, so that the lat
ter is in contact with the film. Thus ar
ranged, the glass sheet and mercury arc
placed in the camera like an ordinary sem
sitivc plate, and exposures being made the
image of the object To be photographed Is
projected upon the glass, the light convey
ing the image passes through the glass,

Elected back by the mercury behind. The
action of the light splits the silver In the
film into thin layers, which breaks up the
light rays into their component colors
AS the play OF colors in an opal is due to
that gem being composed Of layers Of
quartz supcrposed one upon another
these layers breaking up the light into
different hues-a similar result follows
the placing of the layers Of silver in the
film which, through the operation of
curious law, reproduces the tints of theob

Rubber.

The best grades of rubber come from
the banks of the river Amazon and we
might say the supply IL unlimited, but
the climate is very unhealthy, and this
adds to the cost. The very best in turn
comes from the rivers Purus and Madeira,
tributaries of the Amazon, and these sorts
are used for surgical goods. They are very
fine grades, and while their cost is only 3
or cents more per pound in the New
York market still, If the demand should
increase there would be a greater differ
ence Tho Para grades are good enough
for all ordinary purposes The term Para
comes from IA large city at the mouth Of
the Amazon, In telegraphic communication
with the whole world, and reports from
there received daily govern the rubber
markets Of every nation.

AGED EGGS.
How Hen Fruit Il Preserved by Means %
the Cold Storage System.

Take IL along i'm December, and Cholly,
after spending an evening with his charm
ing friend OF Newbury street. desires an
eggnog as he wanders down Washington
street about noon the next day. He goes
into big hotel, steps before the bar, and
glass OF the foaming topaz hued bever-
age is handed 90 him.
That's good, he admiringly remarks
to the bartender Il say, those eggs arc
deuced fresh. They must have been laid
yesterday"
"They We're, " Is the answer I'VE get
them from the country every morning, and
no egg is over three days old.
Cholly is satisfied, and the bartender
smiles. The young man hands out quar-
ter and murmurs, Keep the change"
But the fresh egg the youth relished so
much was more than three days old-about
60 times 3. Six months before the frosty
morning on which Cholly had his nog
and felt pleased, "a quiet, reserved hen with
modest plumagc had proudly proclaimed
to the world on a big western farm that
she had done what every honest, self re-
specting hen aspros 10 do and then she
clucked around the yard and got ready to
do the same thing again the next day.
1t was in the sprngtime, and on the
evening of the day on which Cholly's egg
rested on the wisp of straw in the little
square box in the henhouse an unfeeling
monster with two long legs stole into the
hens bOudoir and without great ado push
ed the fowl from her couch and stole the
egg Then he put it in box, in a small
pasteboard compartment, and two days
later sent it, with 20 dozen and Il others,
TO a shippers establishment, from which

Once in this city the box was looked

dition IL was carried 10 brick building
down on Commercial street, and there,
with the temperature at just about freez-
ing point, it was packed away 20 wait un-
til 1t should be needed in the following
fall From there it went To the eggnog
Fifty years ago, If you had suggested ~
a thrifty New England housewife that she
take a six months old egg and flip into
fluffy omelet, she would have wondered
If the country air had made you crazy.
The idea OF such thing would force I'M
pleasant visions on her mind. Eggs a week
old, she might tell you, had seriously af-
fected her, and, as for six months, why, so
great an age would fit them only for use
in connection with unpopular stage per-
formers, or for boys who wish TO express
their feeling Of enmity toward strict POI
licemen and constables or too earnest col
legc professors.
But times have changed. Six months
old eggs now grace the tables of the high
est in the land, furnish food for the rich
and poor and provide bracing drinks for
the numerous Chollys who sometimes re-
main out later than they should on certain
nights.
Six months old-science has got to that
point from week old. Now efforts are
being made 70 the end that eggs may be
kept from the time a boy comes into the
world until it is made into an omelet the
day he deposits his first ballot.-Boston

KILLED BY A MOB.

William Dolby, colored, who one
week ago criminally assaulted Mrs.
Mary C. Boyd, aged fify-fve, at Par
rotts station, near Washington, Ohio,
was captured at Delaware, o., and
brought into court there at four O'Clock
yesterday afternoon. He pleaded gull
", and was sentenced to twenty years
in the penitentiary. An angry mob
gathered about the jail after Dolby had
been identified by his victim, and Sheriff
Cook called to his assistance the local
militia company. This action increased
the fury against Dolby, and Governor
Mckinley was appealed to for addi-
tional assistance, and troops from Co.
lumbus were sent, Col. Colt in COM
mand. The mob surrounding the Jail
and courthouse attempted to take Dol
by from the officers when removed
from the Jail to the courthouse for trial,
but were kept at bay by the free use Of
bayonets and dubbed guns.
When brought to the courthouse.
Dolby broke down. While bringing
him from the Jail the mob charged and
almost succeeded in getting him. Henry
Kirk, the brother-in-law of the assault
ed woman, was knocked down the steps
and badly bruised. Another man was
bayonetted through the finger, while
bayonet was thrust through the clothes
of another. Deputies, with revolvers
drawn, guarded the prisoner in the
courtroom.
Dolby cried like a baby, and kept
looking around for help. Soldiers we're
marched into town to keep the crowd
quiet. After the sentence, the prisoner
was taken to the grand jury room. A
mob gathered about the court house.
The officers were powerless TO get
Dolby from the court to the Jail, or 10
the train, and Sheriff Cook wired the
governor to send more troops. The
mob grew rapidly in numbers and des.
peration. Colonel Colt made n speech,
asking the crowd to dispense, but it
Was received with .jeers. The prisoner
was PROSTATE with fear, and lay crying
and moaning all the time.
The mob kept Dolby and his guards
prisoners in the court honsc until p.
M. and then made an attack. The
militia repealed them without firing at
first, but at Gas the south door was
forced open. This door opens upon
the street, which was filled with men,
women and children. The detachment
of the guards finally fred on the at
lacking party, though none were hurt
but dozen or more persons in the
street were struck, two killed outright,
and four more were fatally wounded,
one having since died.
The people are frenzied, and threat

tional troops have been ordered from
