BATTLE OF CHICKAMAUGA

50 swiftly. that observations Of an en-
emy's country could be made, bombs
dropped where the greatest damage
would result and the ship be speedily
back at headquarters for further or
ders. Travel will probably be rendered
pleasanter and more swift than by land
and, as the cost of building and operat-
ing will be comparatively small, aero
dromes may be of great use in convey
ing the fast mails and for numberless
other purposes.
The discoveries of Prof. e. W. Wood,
of the University of Wisconsin, indicate
that although still in a crude state of
development, practicable method has
been found for obtaining photographs
in the colors of nature. He begins, as
have many others who have been con-
Quoting experiments along these lines,
in taking three separate negatives of
subject, each through screens Of diff
ferent colored glass, the shades of
which are carefully selected.
The first negative, obtained by in
sorting a red glass before the plate
in the camera, registers only the parts
of the original which are red, with an
integrity corresponding to the vivid
ness of tint displayed in the subject.
A similar process is followed with a
blue and with a green glass, each neg
ative showing only the parts represent
ed by it's own color. Hence, the black
shadows on the three plates are all
different in place and density. The pos
itives taken from these negatives re-
verse the position of the clouds, being
opaque black where the negatives were
transparent and showing clear where
they were clouded.
From this point Prof. Woods process
differs radically from any heretofore
employed. He uses a "diffraction
grating" which is a transparent glass
plate where parallel lines are engraved
SO closely together that they act as
does a prism placed before a white
light and viewed through a small hole
when a blaze of colored light may be
seen. When one grating is substituted
for another, with it's lines differently
spaced, different color appears at the
peephole. Each grating makes a com.

The aluminium engine which oper-
ates the aerodrome weighs little more
than AT pounds and develops 20 horse
power, when necessary; it also operates
a dynamo which furnishes electricity
for light, signals and for cooking pur-
poses. The storage room is back of the
engine room, and the pilot house is in
the forward end adjoining the main
room. Outside the aerodrome and to-
wards the rear, on either side, are the
paddle-wheels, whose 1000 revolutions
per minute are expected to produce a
speed of more than 100 miles an hour.
These wheels are 51a feet in diameter,
md are made of aluminium. with steel
braces. The sails are above the wheels
and extend from end to end of the

plete rainbow, but it's position is diff.
ferent for each grating. In one case
a red color falls upon the aperture, in
another blue or green comes opposite.
One of Prof. Woods finished pictures
must be viewed through an apparatus
constructed on the above plan.
A great number of very fine lines are
printed on a single plate, where 2,OO0
parallel black lines to the inch project
to the eye through the aperture the
red part of their spectrum, 2,4OO the
green and 2,750 the blue The plate
bears no trace of color. 1t requires
three separate printing operations to
produce this plate. Upon a sensitive
film 2,000-line grating is laid and
the positive obtained from the red rays
placed on top. Through the two light
is allowed to shine. Whenever trans
parent spots appear in the positive,
lines of this rate of frequency are regis.
tered on the film. These transparent
places only appear where red occurred
in the subject to be reproduced. When
this grating and positive are removed
the 24-ine grating and green ray posi-.
tive are substituted, and 2, 400 lines to
the inch are now printed where green
appeared in the original. The same
process followed with the other graf
ing and positive causes 2,750 lines to
the inch to appear where it is desired
to show blue.
The success of the printing depends
upon adjusting the positives so that
they occupy precisely the same posi-
ton. 1t can readily be seen that they

copied any number of times after be-
ing made on one plate. For examina-
ton it is placed between the light and a
frame in which is a square lens in an
upright position. The observer looks
through a hole in black screen about
Is inches distant. None of the pictures
yet made in this manner will bear
much enlargement, although they may
be somewhat magnifled by magic Ian
tern. This method of color photog.
raphy is the most successful yet found.
The first really successful photo
graph of the interior of a mans stom-
ach was made in Chicago recently.
After dieting for two days. Mr.. j. C..
Foster, of Cleveland, was placed upon
| an operating table, where he swallowed
a rubber bulb at the end of tube.
The interior of the bulb was coated
! with Photographic emulsion and served
as a sensitive plate. When inflated it
conformed to the walls of the stom-
| ach. A Crooks tube placed over that
organ was allowed to remain eight
| minutes. The bulb being now with
drawn, picture was developed on its
interior, as in an ordinary X-ray pho.
tograph. Mr.. Foster has taken this,
which shows large tumor in the stom.

as guide to physicians who are to OPP
crate upon him in a hospital of that

NEW FLYING MACHINE
Great Things Are Expected of Prof.

Woods New System of Pho
Biography In COlOrs.
Especial Correspondence

Until May, 1898, when the discovery
of coronium was announced, hydrogen
had been considered the lightest known
gas. The knowledge that cOronium has
nearly five times the lifting power of
hydrogen has enabled Prof. S. P. Lang
ley to bring his airship to a high state
or perfection and render America fore
most among nations in solving the
problem of aerial navigation.
The first machine to actually fly
was launched in 1896. 1t was called an
aerodrome, and it's successors have re-
tanned the name in the family. It en-
abled Prof. Langley to prove that a
body weighing many times the air
which it displaces may be sustained in
midair by a power generated within
itself. The task still remained of Sc
cuIing power which would furnish a
considerably larger carrying capacity
than that necessary for maintaining
the machine in the air. Another bad
point was that it depended upon it's mo-
nentum for support. The perfected
aerodrome is built largely of alumni
sum, and the car, which tapers at both
ends, is about 25 feet long, six feet wide
and eight feet high. It has a number
of windows. On either side of the for
ward end of the car is doorway lead
ing into the main room. This room may
be fitted with ali the necessities for
long voyage. Back of this room is an
other where hquefied air is developed,
which furnishes power for the engines
and reduces the buoyant gases that give
initial lifting power to the machine
to liquid. AT all times it supplies the
ear with fresh air, and refrigerates
meat and other necessary articles of
