LESSONS IN PHOTOGRAPH Y
SECOND IN A SERIES OF HINTS ON THE
ART OF TAKING GOOD PICTURES.

The first efforts, after becoming the owner OF a
camera, should be directed toward learning Its
mechanism. Before putting into the camera plate
film, the methods OF exposing either should be
thoroughly understood for otherwise there will
be unnecessary waste of materials. Probably
fully half of the plates and films sold to beginners
fail to produce pictures. because OF the photog-
rapher's unfamiIiarity with the tools and ma
terials
Every ray OF white light that falls unbidden on
a sensitive plate film Is disastrous TO It. Whether
the light reaches the plate film In the box in
which 1t is purchased in the receptacle where II
is placed for insertion in the camera, or in the
camera itself before the instant of exposure or
afterward preceding development and hxing),
makes no difference The result OF light the
plate at the wrong time is it's ruin.

CHANGED THEIR NAMES.
Children of Edward HASKELL Were
Called Victor in School.

-Four pupils of the Chatham Academy
have had their names changed on the
school books under rather peculiar cir
cumstances. and at the request of their
father, through counsel.
The children are Celia, IL years, Car
rie, II years, Pearl, years, and Ben
jamin Haskell, Z years. In school they
were known as Victor, the name of
their step-father. The changing of the
names brings out a rather interesting
story. The children are those of Ed
ward Haskell, a we'll known pawn
broker who was divorced from his wife
about four years ago.
Mrs. Haskell secured the custody of
the four children and married again.
Haskell also remarked, but seldom saw
his children. Several days ago the
father learned that the children had
dropped his name and were entered in
the public school under the name of
their step-father, Victor. Haskell Sc
cured the services of Garrard & Mel
drim, and a communication was ad-
dressed to Supt. Ashmore. When ne
learned that the children were really
those OF Haskell he had the names
changed on the school roll, and SO noti-
fed counsel Haskell charges that he
is not permitted to See his own chill
dren, and has announced his intention
of applying for a rule making this pos
Sible.

BICYCLE THIEF ESCAPED.
Negro Tried to Sell n Stolen Wheel
on the Louisville Road.

Negro Tried to Sell n Stolen Wheel
on the Louisville Road.
A bicycle thief who may be one of
those who has stolen so many wheels
in Savannah recently made his escape
on the Louisville Road late yesterday
afternoon, but left the wheel behind.
The man was a negro and tried to
sell new Cleveland bicycle to N. A.
Fountain, who runs a store on the
road. Mr.. Fountain suspected that the
wheel had been stolen and when he
questioned the man he ran and made
his escape. The wheel was sent to po-
lice headquarters and was later identi-
fed as the property of Mr. w. Il. Still
we'll of No. 213 Huntington street, east.
Mr. Stillwell left his bicycle in the
front flower gar5en of his residence
when he went to dinner and within the
hour a negro entered the yard and took
the wheel. The theft was reported at
police headquarters and the complaint
was lodged with the others of SINH
lar nature. When Mr.. Fountain later
sent in the bicycle it was recognized as
Mr.. Stillwell's, although the thief had
made an effort to scratch the number
off

REFUSED THE INJUNCTION.
Judge Barrow Says Mrs. Hudson
Must Pay Her Notes.


Judge Barrow rendered a decision in
the Superior Court yesterday denying
the application for a temporary in
junction, made by Mrs. Mollie Hudson.
against G. w. Ehrlicher and the Bank
of oxford. Mrs. Hudson had asked in
her petition that the defendants he
prohibited from attempting to collect
two notes which she had executed,
each for $3.50.
Her contention was that the land
she had bought from Ehrlicher, to pay
for which she had given the notes,
was not as represented, as to the
buildings 1t was said to contain, as to
a well said to have been located on it
and in various other particulars. She
averred that the consideration had
failed and that the Bank of oxford, to
which Ehrlicher had ostensibly trans
ferred the notes, was not the actual
owner. but was acting in the matter
as Ehrlicher's agent.
The hearing upon the application
was had before Judge Barrow some
time since and the evidence then ad-
duced sufficed to convince Judge Bar
row that the injunction should not be
granted. He so ruled in his decision
of yesterday. The plaintiff was repre-
sented by Wilson & Rogers and the de-
PENDANTS by Alexander & Hitch.
To secure the payment of the notes
she had given Mrs. Hudson had given
a mortgage upon the property she
bought from Ehrlicher and the defend
ants were proceeding to foreclose this
mortgage and sell the property.

DUST AND RED SUNSET.
Phenomena of 1883 Not Repeated as
Result of Mt. PeIee's Eruption.

Phenomena of 1883 Not Repeated as
Result of Mt. PeIee's Eruption.
Savannahians have seen nothing of
the red sunsets" so plentifully pre-
dicted by scientists all over the country
as likely to follow the eruption of Mt.
Pelee. They don't seem to have ap-
peared in this neck of the woods.
Mr.. Otis Ashmore said yesterday that
the predictions had been based upon
the phenomena that had followed the
great eruption of the volcano in the
Straits of Sunda, that had occurred in
1888. The volcanic dust had then been
thrown up to a great hight and the
currents had carried it around the
earth. The passage of the rays Of the
sun through this dust medium had oc-
casioned the blazing red sunsets that
were then so universally observed.
This is all upon which the prophe-
sizes have been based" said Mr.. Ash
more, land it has been a question of
probabilities pure and simple. l have
seen in some newspapers that the SUM-
sets have already been observed, but 1
scarcely believe it-certainly not when
their appearance is said to have been
noticed anywhere in this section. There
have been none here, and it is hardly
probable there could have been seen
anywhere else within reasonable dis
lance of Savannah"
1t is vet possible that the blazing
sunsets will make their appearance.
The dust that causes them may be cir
culating around in the upper regions
of the air, too high to affect the even
ing rays of the sun, and when it set
ties the expected phenomena may re-
suit. This, however, is quite as much
a matter of surmise as the original red
sunset prophesies.
