| CITY, and nearly 100 were present
| when the convention was called to
| order.
All of the immense store room on
| the ground floor and much OF the
second floor is filed with extern
sive and artistic displays of photog-
raphic work. The exhibits are still
incomplete, but will be open tomor-
row for public inspection. Every
| thing that is beautiful in sun images
! from landscapes to living pictures
is to be seen, and the exhibition can
not fail to delight the crowd that is
| sure to attend.
The association was formed Oct.
| II last at the chamber of commerce
| in this city, when officers were elect
| ed as follows:
| T. NJ. Sven, of st. Paul, president;
J. A. Brush, of Minneapolis, vice
president; Fred B. Johnson, of Du-
luth, second vice president; G. F.
Blackburn, of Grand Forks, vice
| president for North Dakota; G. II.
! Newcombe, of Huron, vice president
| for South Dakota; f. T. Bannister,
of New Richmond, vice president for
Wisconsin; F. H. Lloyd, Of st. Paul,
secretary; A. H. Opsahl, of Mime
apolis, treasurer.
The address OF President Sven, de-
| livered as he took the chair at $50, was
much applauded. In the name of the
| photographers of ST. Paul he welcomed
| the delegates from the land of the
| Dakotas, from the shores of the great
| inland sea, from our sister state Wis
consin, and from our twin city, Min
neapolis."

| the aIl-absorbing and imperative needs
! of our time There is no doubt that to
the national and local associations

which it has

today, wherein it has so ably coop
Grated in the improvement of public
taste"
The first business of Importance was
the appointment by the president of
| the following committee to award di-
plomas for meritorious exhibits:
I. Z. Burt, of Minneapolis; c. A. Zim-
| norman, of st. Paul, and Fred Bunrell,
OF Eau Claire.
Messrs. Rugg, of Minneapolis; Mel
son, Of Apolza, and Secretary Lloyd,
the committee in charge, then reported
a constitution and bylaws, which were
| adopted after some debate The field
of the association had been limited to
| Minnesota, Wisconsin and the two Da-
| kotaS. It was proposed to add Iowa,
but in view of the latter states al
| ready possessing an active society the
change was not adopted.
For the convention city, Albert I'm
derrick, of Minneapolis, proposed his
own city. Several others thought that
another convention in st. Paul would
be more convenient for the officers
holding over. Amusing reference was
made to the cut rates for professional
work in the Flour City and it's evident
need of a convention, and, by vote of
CT to IS, it was decided to meet year
hence at Minneapolis.
| The secretary announced that, upon
invitation of the Commercial Clue, the
delegates will visit the club in a body
this morning at II O'Clock He further
citation, the visiting photographers ard
their wives would attend the Metro
politan opera house tonight.
Last evening an entertaining demon
stration on Lighting, Posing and
Grouping was given by Charles Heth-
erington, of Jamestown, N. Y, at the
convention hall.

morning at 10 o'clock, when S. H. Mora,
Of Rochester, n. I, will read IL paper
