mony with the portrait, and should not
be formed by the side of house: and
this Is especially true when the house
presents strong array of horizontal
lines, dividing the upper part of the
picture into a series OF horizontal
spaces.
z. G. Kunz submitted three pictures,
which form an interesting panoramic
view Of that section OF the city OF Jack
Seville, Fla, which was devastated by
fire in May. 1901. The pictures were
taken from some high point OF view
end give an interesting idea Of the
topography of the city. and for studies
o. this kind are more than commonly
good, and illustrate the value of photog-
raphy in work OF a Typographical nature.

kind should stand out in relief, and there
should exist the sensation upon exam
ination that there Is room enough TO go
around the mill without climbing the
high hill A lens stopped down to
small aperture will often give a feeling
OF collapsed perspective. and such errors
often come from the selection of a time
of day when the building is fattened by
the position Of the sun.
U. B. Waldecker. in his picture, "Ruins
Of the Old Homestead" has narrowly
missed the making of a very artistic
landscape. The old side hill. with the
interesting trees on the summit, forms
a pleasing arrangement which Is some
what married by the fact that there is
no one thing in all OF the view included
that is in keeping with this quiet stretch
Of upland. The ruins are wholly made
quate to carry the interest OF the pie
ture and should have been made a more
important feature. Exposure, develop
ment. and printing are well handled. and
the photograph, though small has much
70 commend It.
"Cat-tails," by 3. r. Winslow, is
hardly in keeping with the other good
work which he has sent TO these com
petitions. A lack OF seriousness in the
selection OF a bunch of kittens posed
In chair and photographed at a time
when the action was awkward rather
than graceful is fault which detracts
from the high average of the work

The association has declared all anti
tippers anathema. and calls upon all true
hotel porters to so harass, badger. and
discommode them that they may be right
speedily weaned from their unwholesome
folly.
4 system OF wireless telegraphy has
been devised by the association by
means Of which the opinion of a visitor
n the matter OF tips may be communi-
Gated TO any brother at any distance
Thc best part of the scheme is that the
guest himself must carry the informa-
tion wherever he goes, thus unwittingly
acting as a messenger boy for the as
sociation. The medium of c5mmunica-
tor IS the hotel label pasted on every
visitors baggage. The code is formed
by varying the angle at which the label
Is placed. In one position the label
means that the guest Is worth cultivat-
ing; in another that he may be relied
upon for liberal acknowledgment OF
services anyhow: in another that at
te Dtion bestowed on him is thrown away
The willy tourist, therefore. will watch
the angle az which the liberal tippers
labels are pasted, aud see that his are
at the same.
There is an old negro porter who has

nical side of photography, coupled with
but little of that disposition to recog-
nize the ver-pervading beauty of ma
ture, and TO select from the profusion Of
pretty landscapes In this vicinity some
thing really beautiful.
Success in Photography can never be
obtained by chance. Snap the shutter
day after day IN a needless manner.
and perchance something may by acct
dent be found that is worthy Of the name
OF a picture. This accidental picture
making is far from satisfactory. and the
person who observes and closely studies
nature and accepts photography as
something more than an amusement Is
far better equipped than the person who
rushes about with the best obtalnabIe
lens and camera and trusts TO the ex-
pensive outfit TO take the place Of Sc
rious thought and careful work.

There have been but FEW examples Of

contents. "A Cozy Corner" by Arthur

This class OF studies as a whole Is

been stated. the print lacks contrast or
vigor. and would be commonly classed
as poor. technically. asidt7from its lack

Lincoln Park" BY A. E schaaI. is
an illustration Of the peculiar lines
which sometimes occur in a composition.
and which seem to be hidden until the
print has been made The lines IN this
picture go strongly resemble the for1na-
ton CT the letter " that the composition
is damaged by the repetition of similar
lines on opposite sides OF the print IN
attempting this work too much has been
included in the view. II picture Of the
Emancipation Statue had been attempt
ed the result would have been more at
tractive. as there would have been some
one thing Of prominent interest brought
10 attention. There are many beautiful
pictures in Lincoln Park. but 20 attempt
to introduce them all in one picture is
an attempt TO see too much. and our
range of vision is not great enough to
see and appreciate all OF the beauties OF
Lincoln Park. as an entirety.
Natures Own Course" Is the unique
title of a picture by John Schedler. and
the photograph is fully as unique as the
title. 4 diagonal line separates the pic
ture into two parts One part-the up
per-contains nearly all the shadow.
while the lower part contains nearly all
of the high lights. The arrangement is
unfortunate. and the selection OF sub
ject does not show any great natural
beauty worthy of an attempt 10 make
from this unattractive spot a picture OF
any great charm.

picture which is marked by success in
some directions. and by failures IN other
directions. The time Of exposure seems
to have been nearly if not quite correct.
The point Of view was well chosen. but
the attempt to show a string of mules
with the driver and the canal boat %
which they are attached is an under
taking which is rarely, If ever, success
fully accomplished. as the comparative
size of the mules and the boat is such
that the boat seems but a tiny speek.
and the shOrt-focus lens used is wholly
unsuited for this class of work.

but the fault Of making the building too
large for the size Of the picture is ap-
parent IN this as IN other examples OF
the same subject. Architectural sub
jects should never be crowded into

Rogue seems 70 be more popular with
old men than any others, though here
is no reason why 1t should not appeal
TO the younger people. 1t often takes
a good rogue player fifty shots TO make
the circle of the court. The frequent
swaying from the hips, the free swing
of the mallet. and the distance which
the player has to walk about the court
account for its popularity with the older
men. It is better sport than billiards.
for II is played in the open air and
sunlight. and the old men like II better
than golf, for there Is a comfortable
bench ready TO receive them after their
play is made. Then. too. the exercise

n 7 OW that the summer has come
VI again the game OF rogue has
been revived and shows signs CT
becoming more popular than it was in
years gone by. Washington's four rogue
courts are thronged every evening with
players and lookers-on. Croquet Is the
parent OF this game both in name and IN
the way II is played. Take away from the
word "croquet'' the first and last Iatters
and the word rogue" remains. I'm like
manner" says the rogue enthusiast.
take away from croquet its foolishuess
and inaccuracies and rogue is the re-
suit"
In it's way rogue Is as scientific as bill
lizards though 1t is played with the same
rules as ordinary croquet. a ball Is
driven through ten wickets and Is made
to strike a post at either end of ;he
court Just as in croquet. But here the
similarity ends. The rogue court instead
of being a comparatively level piece of
sWard Is big box of sand a by SO feet
packed until the surface is as hard and
smooth as a billiard table. The boacds
that inclose the court are covered with
thick rubber padding so that the balls
may carom. This gives abundant oppor-
