A Brave Nan.

The senate of Maine was a tie that day;
Twelve to twelve stood the vote. and the
Solons gray
Looked one at another and turned away
For the question that caused such dOuOt
and pain.
Was the Suffrage right for the women Of
Maine
Twelve to, twelve stood the vote when the
president rose
And again called the roll with its ayes and
It's noes,
And paused for a moment and stnened his
hin.
And the silence was such that the drop of
a PIN
Would have Weakened the echoes with
thunderOus din.
There the president stood with the sweat
on his face,
rs he gave TO his nerves an additional
brace.
And his eyes wildly rolled with a dun hcry
glow,
And his cheeks were as pale as a pan of
fresh dough-
AS he shuddered and muttered a hideous

Series of Complicated
Processes.

That system of reproducing color by
Photographic means which has given the
best practical results is the one which en-
ploys three separate negatives. reports the
New York Tribune. One sensitive plate Is
exposed by itself in the usual manner, ex-
cept that a red glass screen or filter IL
placed in front of it. Without moving the
camera or changing the focus, a second
plate is exposed behind a blu screen, and
finally a third one is used with a green
screen. When these three plates are de-
veloped they all bear the same picture,
but a comparison will show that the diff
ferences between light and shade lin black
and white) in one are not Identical with
those of the others.
Halttone blocks made from these neg
atives are used in succession on an or
binary printing press with colored inks, as
in chrome photography. With the block de-
rived from the red screen the printing is
done with blue ink, while yellow ink is
employed for the blue screen block, and
pink or red ink with the one which was
made with the green flter. II the right
shade OF pigment has been chosen, IL the
impressions are equally heavy. and II the
three successive pictures match exactly

degree Of fidelity to the original tints and
hues is secured.

make a lantern slide that can be exhibited
by a lecturer. He will then pursue a diff
ferent method. He can make a print on
transparent gelatine from each OF the three
plates, and then dye them properly. II they
are mounted. one in front OF another, their
effects may be combined in a single slide
Two or three methods Of preparing such
films have been devised, but that with
whose development Sanger Shepherd (ol
England) is identified is Just now regarded
the most satisfactory.
II was long ago discovered that II q
certain chromium salt was added to gel
atine. and a ilm of the latter was exposed
to the action Of light under an ordinary
Photographic negative. this effect would bC
produced: Under the c~learest and mos
transparent parts Of the negative the gel
atine would be hardened so as to be prac-
tically insoluble, while those parts thai
lay under the dense portions OF the neg
alive would be almost unaffected. The
intermediate shades would act according
TO their density. II, afterward. the surface
of the Aim were thoroughly washed, th'
protected parts would partially dissolve
while those acted upon most strongly b!
the light would stand up higher than tn,
! rest Of the surface. In other words, there
would be a colorless image In relief, thu
thiekest portions corresponding to wha
we're the shadows in the original subject
while the thinnest ones would correspond
10 the high lights. Staining would nov
give transparencies in a single color. an,
the amount OF stain absorbed would b.
governed by the depth of the g~elatine a

corresponding to each OF the negatives
might thus be impaired the proper eolors.

Another Method.

It was also found that II these films, in
stead Of being mounted together in a Ian
tern slide, were laid down over a sheet Of
white paper and made TO stick thereto, a
picture as good as, or better than, that OBJ
tanned with halftone blocks and a ntho-
graphic press would be secured. OF course
the surface would not be absolutely level
and the process was a troublesome one, but
the picture itself would be an excellent one.
The white paper would CLEAN up through
the supeTpOsed films with a degree Of bright
ness governed by the varying thickness OF
the strata. and the resulting tints would
depend on the different proportions OF the
dye .--narts Of the composite.
One more advance has nov 6sen made
upon this process. Until recently It was
customary TO mount each OF the three nlms
before Il was exposed to the light under a
negative, upon another Aim Of celluloid. the
latter acting as a support. When the threG
were combined the artist really had sir
strata besides his paper. II a newly stained
film, while yet moist. be laid over another
hlm Of gelatine, the color will gradually
transfer itself 10 the latter. The former
may then be discarded and the other mem.
bers Of the trio applied in turn. Absorb,
tion will again occur. In time all Of tn,
stain will have been impaired to a singl,
