First Photographs Portrait Posed
for by Miss Dorothy Catherine Dra-
per Many Years Ago.
When Dorothy Catherine Draper,
Who died at Hastings last week, posed
for the first Photographic portrait OF a
person, shortly after DaEuerre's ans
n%ouncenent, in 1888. Of his discovery of
the action Of sunlight on silver. her
face was busted with O fine white pow
der, that the impression might be the
clearer. The first Photographic por-
trait ever made is stillsin existence. It
is owned by Lord H~erschel's heirs in
England. The photographer was Miss
Draper's distinguished brother, John
w. Draper. who succeeded DR.. Valen,
tine Mott as president Of New York
University's medical college. Miss
Draper lived to see the experiment In
which she took part develop into n OF
the most important arts. There have
been other men who have alleged that
they. were first in applying Daguerre's
discovery to Photographic portraits.
but their claims were not well founded.
Miss Draper's picture and the date on
which 1t was made were long ago ac-
cepted as proof that to John Williams
Draper belonged this konor.--New York

who found it was Charles a. Stuck
rath, a guard on the Union loop at
Madison street and Fifth avenue.
At five o'clock in the afternoon
Stuckrath, passing through the car,
espied the portemOnnaie and picked
it up. When he saw what was in it
he notified the officials of the road.
About six o'clock the owner of the
lost property entered the general Of
fees of the Union loop in the Fisher
building and excitedly told of her
loss. She was referred to Stuckrath
and hurried TO his station.

said the guard when she had de-
scribed her loss, but you must first
identify it,

said when she had proved ownership.
Then she took a tight grip of the
bag, calmly opened it and carefully
selecting a dime from within it's

ly alarmed. Occasionally a snake
would get into the house, although no
one was bitten.
One evening recently, as the family
were retiring for the night, the mother
found large snake lying on the bed.
On another occasion in midday, while
she was rocking the baby to sleep, the
house cat gave an alarm, and a snake
with 16 rattles, coiled up ready to
strike, lay under the woman's chair.
They were in the cellar daily, and could
be heard climbing between the walls
and on the ceiling overhead.
Last summer the family could stand
it no longer, and as soon as spring
opened moved TO the old home on the
other side of the farm, but returned in

A rattlesnake den this spring was
found in a sort of cave under the
house, and although hundreds of rep
tiles have been killed around the door

as ever, and Mr.. Helgerson decided TO
demOlish the dwelling and rebuild near
the site of the old house.

one of King Leopold's ballet girl

calls herself La Marquise. Both girls
were in love with the same man, but
this time it wasn't a case of revenue,

TAMPiCO NEARLY
MET HER DOOM
Globe Steamer Collided With q
Schooner OF Cape FIattery.
Small Damage.

OmcerS OF the steamer i amp1cO l4u
nothing to say on arrival here on that
vessels last trip from Seattle concern
ing sensational incident that nearly
closed the career of the Globe steamer.
When a hundred miles off Cape Flat
terry a schooner under full sail struck
the stern Of the Tampico, carrying
away the 1atter's flag pole, but doing
no other damage. Had the Tampico
been thirty seconds later in crossing
the windjammer's bow the steamer
might have gone to the bottom.
The collision occurred at night. The
officer on watch on the steamer saw the
sailing ship approaching, but misjudg-
ed distance and crossed the others
bow very close. The engines of the
Tampico are in her stern, and with
the vessel heavily loaded the stern lies
deep in the water A half minute
slower, and the Tampico would have
had the whole of her stern stove up
and her engines demolished. A storm
was also raging, and the probabilities
are that none of the people on the
Tampico would have been saved
1t is said that the officer on watch
did not report the affair to Captain
Ames. When questioned the next day
he is alleged to have told the skipper.
that the missing fagpole had been
carried away by the winds during the
night. But Captain Ames has been in
all kinds of gales, typhoens. cyclones
and hurricanes during his service at
sea, and knows about how hard it
must blow to carry away such piece
questioned the members of the crew
who had been on duty during the night
and learned that the facts were sub
starftiaIly as stated above. Then
things happened The men on the
steamer experienced the worst shaking
up that they ever had Captain Ames
caused a temporary typhoon to swoop
right through the vessel. Then things
Quoted down, but a few days later Mr..
Maxwell, the passenger, was accident
ally killed. It is alleged that after
Maxwell's death one of the officers of
the vessel was afraid to go on the
bridge alone at night. He was afraid
of Maxwell's ghost Finally it was
decided that Waterman should spend
the watch with him on the bridge
The Tampico also had other trouble.
The ship was hard to steer A quar-
termaster could not handle the wheel,
even after watching Captain Ames do
the work for a while. After the Cap
tain had been at the wheel for awhile
the quartermaster remarked: "You like
ii so well, you better keep on at it,
This man refused to reenter the wheel
house, and later Captain Ames disrated
nolulu.
These facts have all been made
known to the main office of the COM
pany at Seattle and it is quite likely
that shaking up of things will occur
on the arrival of the vessel there, for
the steamer had the narrowest possible
escape from destruction on the trip
down Although crammed with cargo
when she arrived here from Seattle,
the vessel had to return with only 100
tons of scrap iron as cargo and carry
ing 300 tons of ballast
