There was a time when Representa-
tive Morgan OF the Fifteenth district of
Missouri was the most famous private
soldier in the war of the rebellion. He
was known from one end Of the country
TO the ether as The Escaper," and per-
haps a greater number of lies has been
told about his exploits than about any
other private soldier Of the Union army.
Morgan, though naturally a modest
man. began finally 10 believe there was
no prison strong enough to hold him.
He was such a slippery customer that
when his fame in that line began to b.
noised about usually a company of sol
diers were SCI 10 watch him, and as a
captive he was OF more cost and trouble
TO the Confederacy than any half dozen
mon with their liberty on the Federal
side of the line. Five times did he es-
cape from rebel prisons, and four times
was he captured.
The first time ! was captured, said

An entirely new process, protected by
patents here and abroad, is used in print
ing the photographs that appear ia The
Celebrities Monthly, and by it not long
ago 100, 600 photographs were printed in
one day. The process consists of auto
matically printing direct fEom photo
graphic negatives by artificial light or
sensitized paper in a continuous roll. The
paper is fed under the negatives in a ma
chine that switches the lights on and OIL

most careful and scientific supervision is
imperative for these delicate chemical op-

perienced photographer is essential 20 OBJ
tain the best results. since any omission or
neglect is multiplied indefinitely. The
paper used is coated with a gelatin bro
Ilide of silver emulsion, and the resultant
photographs are excellent bromide prints

There was n dignified pause, and then

that the Texan, while not telling "A false

For reply Colonel Ochiltree pulled a paper

WOMEN HELP TO CLEAN STREETS.
Armed With Brooms, In Paris They Work
With Men Removing Snow.

Women as well as men are employed TO
remove the snow from the streets of Paris.
Groups of both sexes, armed with brooms,
gather at certain points all over the city,
especially about the Opera and the Place de
Ia Bastille. Employees of the prefecture
promptly appear and divide them into
brigades assigning TO each a certain sec
tion from which the snow and ice are to be
removed or deprived of its dangers to the
pedestrian. for it is the duty of the "direc-
