MAGNETISM
Without TulA or Current. Produced
Shaded Photos.

baltimore, March i0-Prof William c,
Hammcl, Of the department OF physics
of the Maryland state normal school.
has made experiments which prove. he
asserts. that IL Is not necessary In photo
graphing hidden objects TO use an cleo
iric current or a CroOkrs tube.
Prof HRmmel calls the result Of his
experiments 'masnetographs" He says
he Is the Arst one who has got patis-
factory results with the use Of magnet,
He exhibited three plates which show
the results OF his experiments. one
result, which Prof. Ilammel says has
not been reached by any one else. Is TO
phoiograph light and shade, or. In other
words. to take genuine photograph,
instead Of a mere outllns. Rs the result
Of the cathode ray experiments usually

The plate which showed this contained
key and bar u iron. The sdges OF
these objects were clearly defined and.
Ia addition, there was shading on the
edge which shovel the same shadow
that would be apparent In a photograph,
But there was, besides this. shading in
the center OF the HAT ring Of the key.
The Inference fror, this discovery Is that
genuine photographs may now be taken
Of concealed objects instead OF the unsat-
isfactory shadowgraphS obtained with
the cathode rays. Another result OBJ
talned by Prof, Hammel was the positive
