ABOUT SPIRIT PICTURES.
Were curiosities Forty Years Ago
< and Worth $40 Apiece.

A photographer Of this city open
ed little drawer in his roll-toP
desk yesterday afternoon and took
out a somewhat battered carte de
visite of the size and shape popular
thhty-five or forty years ago, says
the New Orleans Times-Democrat.
1t represented young man seated
at table and behind him was the
very dimly outlined figure of wo-
man. The young man wore the
costume of the anti-bellum dandy,
and the woman seemed to have a
crinoline under her volumlnous
skirts. She was barely discernible,
and the legs Of the table could be
seen through her dress. "That, I
said the photographer, smilingly,
''is a good specimen of the spirit
photographs which once created
such a furore in this county AS
you may see by the stamp, it was
taken by John U. Gait on Broadway,
New York, and considering the pro
gress of the art in those days 1T is a
very creditable piece of work from
technical standpoint. The spirit
figure, which puzzled scientists and
gave rise to all sorts Of preposterous
theories, is such palpable trick
that it is hard tor modern opera
tor to understand how anybody
could havebeen deceived by it. The
plates of that period were very
slow, and an exposure of from sixty
to Mighty seconds was necessary to
secure a fairly sharp image. In
this picture the woman was evident
ly given an exposure of about hive
seconds, and the plate laid away in
the dark against the arrival of the
dupe. When the latter took his
place the camera was uncovered
for the full time, and the results you
,see before you. The spook picture
wss made very dim so that the face
could be recognized for almost any
body. and the whole thing was as
easy as rolling off log. Any
modern amateur could do the work
with So machine, yet these same
little cards were eagerly purchased
at $50 apiece in gold. The world
has certainly moved since then,
hasn't it?"

Wireless TeIagraphy.

Wireless telegraphy across the
Atlantic is to be tried by Sig. Mar
conf. At present the inventor is IN
Rome negotiating with the Italian
admiralty regardingthe adoption OF
the system by that branch OF the
Italian service. The experiments
which have been made indicate that
wireless telegrapby is easily prac-
ticable, but that in its present con-
dition of development it cannot be
relied on for the severely practical
work that the wire insures. Atrain
dispatcher could not undertake to
time trains by it. Two co-operat-
ing military column could not de-
pend upon it for communication.
War vessels at sea might find it
hflpful, but could not make it their
sole reliance. The objection that
messages transmitted by a wireless
system could be received by others
than those to whom they are sent
amounts to a little, The same is
true of the ordinary telegraph wire.
AS rule secret messages, even in
: the mails, are written in cipher.
Perhaps one of the most useful
features of the wireless method
Would be to keep up connection
With exploring parties going into
remote portions of the world. If
Sig. Marconi's confidence is well
founded Walter Wellman could
have been in communication with
London or New York during his en-
tire Journey. The lost Andree might
have kept the world advised of his
movements. In such country as
Alaska intercourse could be held
between different camps and the
hardship and danger greatly re-
duced in consequence. Chicago Re-

Chicken Cholera.

cholera, is very difficult to dag
nose sometimes; as serious To-
cal disorder is liable to be con-
fused with the genuine cholera.
1t is very unsatisfactory to try
to treat sick hens, and unless
they are quite valuable, it seldom
pays to treat them when they get
pretty sick. 1t is far better to
adopt means of prevention other
than to depend too much on cur
atives. The symptoms of chol-
era will vary in different locali-
ties, although every where it is
attended with violent diarrhea
and is rapidly fatal. In every
outbreak of cholera, the first
thing to do is to separate the sick
from the well ones, and at once
change the food, which should be
of the most nourishing character
and combined with some stimu-
liant, such as cayenne pepper or
a tonic like iron. Iron is a great
favorite among poultrymen who
have been through sieges of chol-
era. The old practice of putting
rusty nails in the drinking water
was all right in theory, but iron
was needed in more active
form, which could be supplied by
adding sulphate of iron Copper
as), putting eight ounces of it in
a gallon of water, keeping If in a
Jug, never putting it in metal
vessel. With two gallons of this
water add one ounce Of oil of
vitrol. When this is prepared a
teaspoonful of the mixture is to
be put in a pint of drinking wat
err, and is found to be a most
useful tonic whenever needed.
AS soon as the disease has broken
out in flock of poultry all should
be fed this tonic, so as to enable
them to resist and also throw off
the disease.
The symptoms of chicken
cholera are not very well under
stood by the great majority Of
poultry breeders, and it is quite
likely that some persons have
the disease on the brain or in the
eye. This is so much so that a
great many will, as soon as they
lose fowls by some unusual dis
ease, attribute the loss to chol-
era. We believe that many fowls
die and are carried away or bnr.
led which have died from other
diseases and cholera has had the
blame for it. A fowl that has the
cholera has a detected sleepy
and dropping look, and is never
seen pluming itself. 1t has a
great thirst and its gait is slow;
it gapes often, and in some cases
the fowl becomes very weak,
staggers and falls over. The
comb and wattles turn either a
pale color or very dark, diarrhea
sets in, the discharge being either
of greenish or of the color of
sulphur and water, and later on
it becomes frothy. Then comes
general prostration and the crop
fills with wind and mucous, the
food is not digested, the breath
ing is heavy and quick, the eyes
close and the fowl dies. An
autopsy will usually show the
gizzard filled with dried up food,
or greenish matter and the crop
inflated with sour mucous and
food. The liver will be enlarged
and flabby and so tender that it
will mash in the hand. Unless
the fowl has these symptoms it
is no we'll defined case of cholera.
