Inventor steffens' Toy the wonder Of
the Patent Offce
! lChicago Record-HeraId.

(Chfcago Record Herafd.)
Matthias Joseph Steffens, the Chicago
photographer, has invented a nautical
toy that has been for months the
wonder and admiration of the Wash
ingt0n patent office. The lpecuiarfty Of
gate Without any perceptible source of
power. It consists Of a small boat
launch or toy yacht, which, when set
upon the wafer, proceeds TO pillow the
surface at furious rate. There is
no boiler, no dynamo no nnaohfn erys
A dozen vessels may be set sfrnultan-
eOusly in a bath tub and from the me-
naent of launching each little vessel
as if manned by an expert crew and
guided by a duly licensed piIct, pro-
mistake about cOlliding with shore or
ship. When Mr.. Stefenss first model
was exhibited at the patent Office the
experts regarded il with awe. They
admitted that it was a wonder, but
they couldn't understand what made it
navigate AIr, Steffens promptfy eX-
planned the source of it's motion, but
then they admitted that they were
mystifed as to now the tiny vessels
maintained such strict avoidance Of
collision.
At his studio yesterday Mr.. Stenens
exhibited for the benefit of the Record
Herald readers a half dozen small mod
els OF his invention. When set upon

Chicago surgeons and scientific men
of all branches have recently been
attracted 70 Mr.. Stefens' studio by bis
extraordinary reproductions of color
photographs in StereosCopic, stereepti-
con and single views. The appliances
patented and used by Ar- SteHens in
these or-prOductiOns OF photographs
consist OF a simultaneous projection Of
three plates of the original picture,
each contemplating one of the three
primary cOlOrs- OF nature, viz, red, blue
and green. Some of the pictures OF
cancer, tuberculosis, KOenJgen-ray
burns and pathological specimens are
said TO be heretofore unequaled in scl-
entific photography.
Kite and balloon cameras that can
be focused and pointed from the
earth, a self-prOpelling bicycle, an au-
tomato hair pin. and a number OF. Pho
tographic novelties are among the less
astonishing of AIr. Steffens' inventions.
He is a practiCing and successful por-
