world, is arousing considerable inter
est. Among the expt riments some
wonderful, insghls into natures se-
crets have been developed. BY the Us,
OF the new process the inside OF solids
are successfully photographed, steel
and iron being about the only sub
stances that resist its penetrating rays.
With a certain degree of light and volt
OF electricity. the ray penetrates the
clothes and flesh of a person, and lays
bare all the muscles and bones of the
body. With additional power, it even
enters the bone itself. For instance, a
bullet was photographed, which had
entered we'll into the bone of mans
leg. Aniron weight was photographed
through a close wooden box. 1t is
claimed that the inside of a room can
be accurately photographed through a
brick or wooden wall. After awhile
people will be afraid to go on the
streets, lest some fellow may come
along with a kodak and take snup-
shot at his breakfast, and they would
not dare to undress to go to bed, for
fear of getting up in the morning to
/ find the whole performance illustrated
in the columns of the morning news
paper. Mr.. Edison is simply getting
too cOnfounded smart. Somebody
ought to call him down.
Some people are inclined to query
the accuracy of the report which re.
Gently arrived in Washington to the
effect that our friend, Will McAllis,er,
is likely to succeed in flushing a very
enthusiastic Whitney presidential
boom in Mississippi They back up
their suspicion with several theories
foremost among them. as they say. is
the fact that Mr.. Whitney, while one
Of the best and purest public men in
the world. is a very pronounced sound
money man, and that Mississippi pos
itively y refuses TO keep company with
those sort of people. AS evidence Of
that, they point to the fact thai though
a pronounced and announced candidate
there was not in the entire legislature
one sir gle man to place the name OF
Gov. Stone before the caucus, let alone
vote for him. because he chose to
march under the gold standard banner.
His p' ople have unlimited contidercc
in hi. honesty and integrity, for h.
has served them long and well, as sol
der. statesman and citizen. but they
declil e to ride in his financial band
wagon, therefore the incrcdulous ones
up here seem to think that Mississippi
can be relied upon to endorse none but
a free silver man for President, hence
they do not take much stock in the
report of the Mississippi Whitney
| boom.
The READ-MONEY MARRIAGE.
The Read Money wedding in this
city was most unique and notable
one. 1t furnishes an instance of the

brilliant nuptial events for which the
Southern people have so long been
noted. while the balance of the world
