CAMERA FOR INSECTS.
How to Adjust the Photographic Ap-
paratus and the Proper Method
of Exposure.

/ On the top of tripod or camera
stand may be fixed a double board,
hinged so that it will turn up at right
angles with its base as in the accom-
panying sketch, and supported by a
side rod or slotted bar. 1t will be seen
that if the camera is screwed to the up
right board, the lens will point down.

II anything is placed on the floor, by
using the camera in this position the
object can be very readily seen on the
ground glass of the instrument. Books,
manuscripts and such like things that
are difficult to fix up can thus be very
easily copied, and with great saving
of time. The size does not matter. One
has only to lengthen or reduce the dis

to get the necessary reduction; but it
is not for this purpose that I now de-

etc. Much time can be saved, as one
has only to place the object on some

people may inquire about the shadow,
as it often mars the beauty of the photo

materially to it's relief. To obviate this

Fight Between Man and Pig.
An interesting fight between man
and pig entraneed a crowd of Norris
town people the other morning ON the
Main street. The man, young farmer,
was driving big, uncovered wagon.
He sat On some boards that were
snatehed from the wagons two sides,
and under the boards was the hog,
which his weight held down. Sudden

elattered down on top of him, and the
poker began to climb out of the
wagon. you'll buck me, will you?"
said the man, getting up, and he
grabbed the animal by the throat and
began to punch it in the nose. The pig,
erect and shrieking like mad, struck at
him with it's forepaws and tried to trip
him with it's hind ones. The intelligent
horses stopped SO as to let the crowd
view the fight in comfort. The man
and the hog fought all over the wagon
until they both painted for breath. The
animals nose was bleeding, and the
mans clothes and skin were torn here
and there. The duelists were revolving
in a tight embrace in the middle of the
wagon, like a couple waltzing, when Q
spectator reached up and knocked the
hog down with club. Then the boards
were arranged again and the man drove
off.-Philadelphia Record.

constantly cutting prices, and under

for self-protection and advancement,

In the world. Of course they shut out
of business many smaller dealers; but
that is one of the results of the law

Chinese recognize that law spontane-

NEGRO PREACHER SHOT,.
Rev. VIM. Johnston of Maryville, Mo-,
Killed by an Oficer.

Rev. VIM. Johnston of Maryvile, Mo,
KILLED by an Omcer.
MARYvILLE, Mo-, Aug 3l.-Rev.
William Johnston, former pastor OF tho
African Baptist church of Maryville
and evangelist of the colored Baptist
church of Kansas and Missouri, was
killed last evening by Officer John
Wallace, while resisting an attempt to
take him TO Jail.
Johnston was convicted of having
made indecent proposals on Monday to
Mrs. Alice Barton, respectable white
woman, and sentenced to nine months
in the Nodaway county Jail. He made
a gun play on Constable Noah Jennings
in the morning while trying to get away
and was disarmed. 1t developed that
he had another gun, however. There
was some talk of lynching him and he
was scared and desperate.
When he came downstairs from court
last evening IA curious crowd was stand
ing at the bottom of the stairs. On
reaching the bottom of the stairway he
began to back away from the officers
with his hand on his pistol pocket, de-
claring that he would rather die right
then than go to Jail and be lynched.
Officer Wallace presented his pistol and
told him he must come
The negro drew his pistol so far from
his pocket that it caught in his belt and
the officer Immediately fired. Johnston
ran and Constable Jennings fired after
him. The negro had now succeeded in
getting hold of his pistol and he turned
and fired twice on his pursuers. He
started co run again, but fell dead III
front of the Real Estate bank
Officer Wallace has not been arrested.
Maryville negroes are very bitter and
threaten to get revenge.
