TOOK ITS OWN PICTURE.
Novel Manner of Photographing

A Burlington locomotive has Joined

ers. 1t has deliberately taken its own
picture, securing better one than

near Aurora, Ill.
The device comprised an electric
switch, which, when connected to the
rail, closed the circuit on being struck
by the engine. This switch communi

set of dry cells, and thence to shut
ter release. The shutter release
The camera was set up and focused
on the track, good judgement being
used as to the length of the train, and
the switch put in place about six feet
behind the spot where the front of the
engine should appear on the plate

count of the train moving that dis
tance during the interval occupied by
the electricity travelling the complete

One with little knowledge of efec-

circuit and instantly the electricity
communicates with the high speed

registered on the center of the plate

He passed the rope over another

Anderson was jerked high in the air
