Industry I'm WrOngdOing.

one of the curious things about the pres
ent Administration is the tendency shown
by certain high officials to stick to wrong
doing for its own sake. When they commit
a mistake they seem to want to make quite
sure that the nation thoroughly under
stands how great blunder it is. The
Spanish party last spring did not stop
with moderate and cautious denials of
Spanish agency in the destruction of the
Maine. They asseyerated with great
earnestness that the cause of the calamity
was an internal explosion, and they kept on
making that assertion long after every SEN
sible person in the country was satisfied
that the immense preponderance of proof
was on the other side.

service and provided with a moderate iiv-

body would have grumbled very much;
but instead of that he was absolutely re-
warded for his indecency If Mr.. Alger had
shown three months ago the amiable dis
position 10 save the President the trouble
with which he is now credited there might
have been some people who would have
believed him unjustly abused. But he has
stayed in the Cabinet long after any man
with ordinary sensitiveness of feeling
would have begged for the chance to hide
himself in the wilds OF Michigan. And
now comes Secretary Long with his final
attack on Admiral Schley. 1t ought to be
plain TO every observer of national affairs
that the current of feeling has set so
can rehabilitate him in public opinion,
and that the more the department at
tempts TO defend him the more convinced
the country Will be of the existence and
objects of the inner ring But Mr.. Long

THE SARATOGA SPRINGS.
Syndicate Said to Be Negotiating
for Their Purchase.

Saratoga, n. Y, March 7.-Col William
S. Powell, manager of the Kissingen
spring. said yesterday that a syndicate
composed of American British and Ger
man capitalists, who control many foreign
mineral waters had secured options On
three or four springs here. In regard 10
the kissingen spring Colonel Powell said
he informed the syndicate that they could
purchase it outright provided they would
give the amount demanded by the Kissin-
gen Company.
Cornelius Sheehan, president Of the Con-
gress spring. ridiculed the idea that a min
eral spring trust was TO be formed. and
declared in substance that his spring was
not party to any such deal T. A James.
superintendent of the Vichy spring would
neither affirm nor deny anything in regard
TO the deal.
Frank H. Hathorn, of the Hathorn
spring, placed no confidence in the So
called mineral water trust. and added that
his spring was in 10 way connected with il
He added that at intervals OF several
months he had been approached b. persons
pretending to represent some syndicate or
another, who desired to secure an option
on his spring. AS they were reluctant
about stating whom they represented Mr.
Hathorn al once declined TO have any
further dealings with them. Interviews
with owners and managers of other min
eral springs elected the fact that they have

PHoToGRAPHING IN CoLoRs.
Prof Woods Method Said to Be sue
cesssuI

Madison, Wis, March Prof. R. W.
Wood, of the University of Wisconsin
originator of the electrical thaw has
new method of photographing in natural
color.
Prof. Wood reproduces colors by diff
fraction, method not hitherto tried. and
although at present the production of the
first finished picture is somewhat tedious,
duplicates can be printed as easily as or
binary photographs are made.
These pictures are on glass, and are not
only colorless, but almost invisible when
viewed in ordinary lights but when placed
in a viewing apparatus. consisting OF a
convex lens, on light frame. show the
colors of nature with great brillancy.
The finished picture is simply diff
fraction grating of variable spacing,
Prof. Wood said. In other words. it is a
transparent flm of gelatine with very fine
pallet and equidistant lines on il. about
1000 to the inch on the average. The col
ors depend solely on the spacing bstSeen
the line and are pure spectrum colors, or
mixtures OF such, the necessity of colOred
screens or pigments. used in all other
processes except that of Lippman. having
been overcome.
The picture can be projected on a
screen by employing suitable lantern,
or can be viewed individually with very
| simple piece of apparatus consisting of a
| lens and perforated screen mounted on a
| frame.
"A popularity of the process is that
| there is no such thing as a negative in it.

The evening times., 1899-03-07

II was all nightmare then. An infant
blizzard had not visited US last night.
Boreas had not attempted to murder sleep,
and the streets were as clean as on Mon
day morning. The weather was fair though
(somewhat) colder, and the winds that
roared from the coast in triumphant
cort OF a tremendous snowstorm were
really nothing more than brisk and not so
much disturbing as variabie-the principal
variation being a slight change from
northwest to southeast.
Nobody of course. wishes to dispute the
dicta of the Weather Bureau, but in the
circumstance We feel that we may owe
an apology to Prof. Willis Moore. When,
some months ago, The Times entered upon
the obvious duty of driving the Christian
Science humbugs who afflict this town
into some sort of industry less dangerous
10 life and happiness than the practice of
medicine. We had no intention of heading
them toward the Weather Bureau. and We
share with Prof. Moore his natural grief
hat so many OF them have arrived there.
But what is TO be done? They are apparent
ly as thoroughly in possession as Alger is
Secretary of War, and they are known
never to desert patient until he commits
the final sin of thinking he is dead. We
fear both Messrs. Moore and Dunwoody
are in for il.
