First Trading Done After the Election
characterized by Marked stIehgth.
New York, Nov. 4.-The first trading
done on the New York Stock Exchange
after the election was characterized by
marked strength. The initial prices
moved up from 2 to per cent on rail-
way shares, the latter being st. Paul,
New Jersey Central; 3 per cent on
Western Onion; Chicago Gas and on
tobacco. and per cent on Minnesota
iron. New Jersey Central soon made
an additional advance OF per cent.
Sugar opened with sales of l, 500 shares
at l25 to 1877, against closing OF Monday
night at l1S14. Silver opened 2 per
cent off, at 63, and declined an addi-
tional " per cent. Summary concessions
frop top prices were made, notably st.
Paul, which declined III per cent.
There was no undue excitement on the
board.
Trading was enormous during the
first hour. Blocks of from 500 to 2, 500
shares changed hands at frequent In
tervals, and as result realization set
in at the top figures, bringing about
declines of 21sa1A per cent Silver
certificates rallied per cent.
The tendency in stocks at IL O'Clock
was still downward, but dealings were
in lighter volume.
Money opened at 10 per cont bid, but
declined 6 per cent, 800, 600 having
been loaned at that figure. The sterling
exchange market was weak and lower.
Sight sterling was. offered at ,aS31b, u
decline of 2 per Cent per pound from

Another difficulty in making pictures of
the sea is the difficulty of finding subjects.
The landscape photographer can go to his
back yard and most likely find something
to take; but the marine photographer
has to walk along miles and miles of coast
or go out in an open boat in all sorts of
weather. He has to use his judgment all
the time, so as to know what will go
together and what it is possible to take
with his camera.
Another difficulty the marine photog-
rapher has to contend with is the case of
quick and limited exposure Everything
must be taken practically instantaneously.
There are ranges of exposure varying
from the quarter of second to the four
hundredth part of a second, which neces-
States good lens and q fine shutter, and
also the nerve and precision of hunter.
There is no focusing on the ground glass,
but the distance must be judged by eve
and the composition located by the finder.
AT this point nerve is required TO work the
shutter at just the right time.
In the case of rapidly moving objects
the fraction of a second one way or an
other in opening it will spoil the result.

THEY FENCE IN
THE WHOLE EARTH

There is no more fun for the sportsman
In California, was the pessimistic remark
OF knight of the gun the other day to q
crowd of sympathizers. 1.-The land, the
marshes, the brooks, even, where the trout
loves to gambol, all have been appropri-
ated by individuals or incorporated coun-
try clubs, and nothing Is left for
the solitary sportsman whose keenest
enjoyment comes with the advent of the
open season. 1t is not every one who loves
hunt that is able to afford the luxury of
long journey ana an expensive outfit,
such as the sportsman of to-day must have
IN order to enjoy unmolested his passion
Ior the chase. There are, to be sure, the
mountainous regions of the State and
plenty OF game, but these are mac

go to Trinity County and other spots
equally retired, but such a journey in
voives time and money. and there are but
few persons who can afford it; but around
san francisco. say within a radius of
a hundred miles, it is the invariable rule
to lind posted in conspicuous locality
wherever game is likely to abound a
warning to all trespassers, and hunters in
particular, TO abstain under penalty of the
law"
A silent protest is all the time going ont
from every sportsman who has not rho
entree to one OF the country clubs at the
appropriation by a few individuals of
almost all the hunting and fishing
grounds within a reasonable distance
OF this City, and it is said that a
strong com bination will be present at the
next session or the State Legislature to
secure the passage of laws directed against
the leasing OF large bodies of land for the
few and curtailing and defining the privi.
leges OF those wealthy clubs which. control
these large tracts.
The Country Club, which has leased all
soluIely or secured shooting and fishing
privileges over an immense tract on tho
western slopes OF Mount Tamalpais. is an
instance which sportsmen, whose privi-
leges nave been curtailed by its means
regard rs one of the greatest of the
Offenders. The club is really an offsboot
OF the Pacific Union of this City and ito
privileges come high. Only the mem
bers or favored guest and then under
restrictions are allowed to enjoy the great
privileges OF the club. One must be a mil
lanalre 10 become a member.
The number of the members ia Tr,;+oa
ana as tew die and none ever resign the
chance OF joining it is very small though
the hst OF applicants is always large.
The latest of these corporations founded
upon the general plan of the Copntrv
Club is the Miramonte, which has been in
existence little over year. Itis located
on the great Burdell Tract on Petaluma

that fiourishing city. The club has leased

pose well. But having done this the next
thing to do is to calculate the time. This
will have to be very fast under any cir
cumstances; not less than the seventy
fifth of a second. Having decided on the
subject, get every ythin ready to work the
shutter and then watch the waves as they
roll in. See that there is plenty of con-
trast between the dark rocks and the
white foam on the breakers and that the
sky is not too smooth. With these condi-
tions picture will surely be produced.
'Seagulls and Fishing boats" is, from
an artistic standpoint, one of the finest
pieces of marine photography ever pro-
duced. 1t has all the requirements of a
fine picture and is most graphic piece of
work. 1t is full of life and action. The
boats are pitching and rolling in a lively
breeze and the birds are flying past at
rapid rate of speed. This negative was
made by Edgar Plckard of Boston, Massa-
chusetts. 1t really is two negatives
printed on the same piece of paper, a
most difficult thing to do and what might
be. called tricky by some, but none can
assert that the END does not justify the
means.
Although this picture was made in the

! ward to Point Reyes and northward
to the Sonoma County line. All this
tract has been fenced in and stocked
with deer, quail, pheasants and wild
turkeys, which are rapidly increasing in
numbers, and in time will afford the
rarest sport. The land is especially adapted
for all kinds of game and has been left in
its natural state so far as possible. Those
enemies of the game family, the native
foxes, are very numerous and destructive,
but the efforts of the club will eventually
exterminate these and like pests.
Besides the forest lands the club con-
trols over 1900 acres of marsh, which, in
the duck season, swarms with game
fowl of every description and affords
enhancing sport. The open season for
game soon begins and the Mira
monte will be in its glory. The
club is a close corporation and consists of
only dozen members, seven OF whom
adorn the official list while the remaining
five are necessarily private.
The house of the Miramonte Club, de-
signed by Architect Sam Newsom, is on q
mound which rises in the expsnse of
marsh overlooking the whole tract and
affording magnificent view OF San
Pablo Bay. 1t is built in the Span.

being 136 feet long and SO feet wide, with

rooms, kitchens, bath and billiard rooms,
dormitories and armories and storerooms
for the usual paraphernalia for hunting
and fishing. The main hall is the place OF
general rendezvous, and sitting before the
great fireplace on a frosty night
enjoying the rest that comes after days
sport is the very acme of comfort and en-
joyment. Here the great prevaricators OF
the club flourish in undisputed superior
ity, and here originate those fish stories
which astonish two continents by their
superlative meEdacity.
The club has several steam launches,
one OF which periodically journeys to San
Francisco and returns crowded. with the
lady friends and relations OF the MEMBERS
duly chaperoned, and who often spend
day or two there with the utmost enjoy

The usual method of masking out'
and double printing must then be followed
and the result will be satisfactory.
The fishing boats about San Francisco
are, if anything. much more picturesque
than those in the accompanying drawing.
They are, in fact, the m st tempting SUBJ
jects photographer could desire, for they
are all of different sizes and unlike in every
way except general appearance.
1t will be seen by comparison of this
article with the one on Landscape Com

The only difference Is the requirements of
the two varieties of subjects. The idea
is to fill your space. Let the light balance
the dark and get picturesque forms that

duction of land or sea.

There is no rogues' gallery now, except
In name, and that relic of the past when
the pictures OF criminals were displayed
on the walls of every courtroom. The
pictures are taken as of old and carefully
preserved, but more carefully guarded
than priceless treasures. No one nav see
them without an order from the Chief of
Police, who is jealous guardian, demand
ing very minutely the reasons for the re.
quest and denying it most decide edly un-
less the interests of justice demand its be-
ing granted.
This, as may be easily understood, is
tempering justice with mercy. Justice
demands record of each person who has
broken the laws, yet mercy saws, ''Give
him chance to do better" If young
man by some mischance has gone wrong
aud, learning lesson, reforms and shows
by his life that his reformation will be
lasting, he may go to the Chief and ask
for his picture, have the number and
name obllterated and literally turn over a
new leaf.
The man who takes the pictures must
have some queer experiences and see some
queer faces. The rogues' gallery has fair
faces and handsome ones; grave, intel
Iectual people look at you from the cards
as though wondering why they find them
selves in such company, and more than
one wears a careless smiIe-trying to pass
1t off as joke.
Some prisoners struggle. There is one
set OF photographs which is a story with
out words. As the man escaped from
prison and is still at large there is no
wrong in describing them or printing the
pictures. The prisoner most positively re-
fused TO be photographed at ALL but the
stalwart police were too much for him and
he was Obliged to occupy the chair and
face the camera. The photographer
snapped his button and developed the
negative. The face was there, of course
but so distorted as to be useless for its
purpose. The prisoner had ''made a face"
at the camera. They tried it again, po-
hceman holding him steady. Not only
was the distortion there, but the eyes were
closed.
The policeman held him still for half an
hour, waiting for the eyes to open. Then
third plate was used. The tired muscles
were relaxing, but the eyes were still shut.
After another half hour the face was nat
ural and was satisfactory except for the
closed window of his soul.
Tired of all this fuss, the Chief ordered
the prisoner to the dark cell to mediate
until ne wished to have his picture taken
again. After a time solitude and darkness
did their work, and the fifth picture is
open-eyed and pleasant. There was
method in his madness. as his ingenious
escape proved.

terical at sight of the machine, and some

the end of any of the wharves and there

"The Rock bound Coast of Marin

taste and skill of the photographer. The

most prominent reef is not too far from
the foreground. 1t will require considerable
skill to get group of rocks that will COM

xist. The mountain wave, rolling and
tossing, and with clouds of spray blown
from its crest, is always associated with a
wild sky, and, as matter of fact, they are
nearly always found the accompaniment
of one another. The smooth sea gener-
ally lies beneath a sky that expresses
peace in its quiet expanse. The cloudy
sky and the dashing wave are harmonious,
Just as the smooth water and quiet sky
The intermediate conditions are almost as
closely defined, and any departure from
them will produce an unsatisfactory re-
suit.
To say that certain things were certain
way does not mean that the picture is
good. To be good it must be character
istIc of the locat tion and the moods of the
sea. One might as well go down to Ari-
zona and make a picture of the Grand
Canyon of the Colorado with mist of Jog
hanging over the distant mountains. Such
conditions can be found perhaps once or
twice year, but to put them into a
picture would not be good art, for they
are not characteristic and would not con-
vey a correct impression of the locality to
the observer. Phe character of Arizona is
expressed in barren rocks and burning
