Color Photoursphv.

Science for Jan. 30 has an account
of the process of color photography
recently patented by MIR. Miley of Lex.
ington. Va. Negatives are prepared
by the tricolor process. using three
sensitized plates and three screens
red, green and violet. For the red
screen an orthochromatic plate flowed
with cyanin solution is used; for
the green screen an orthochromatic
plate Is used, and for the violet screen
plain gelatin bromide plate. There
are thus obtained three negatives
varying in density in the different
areas according to the color values
of the three primary colors in the
corresponding areas of the object
taken.
Prints are made from these mega.
tives by the use of bichromatlzed gel.
atine pigment paper carbon tlssue).
The pigment papers used are red, vel.
low and blue. The blue paper Is
printed from the red screen negative
the red paper from the green screen
negative, and the yellow paper from
the violet screen negative. These three
printed films are then superposed upon
transfer paper, the result being a col
or photograph which initiates the col.
ors Of the object with marvellous ac-
curacy. Copies of oil paintings are
very successfully made. The process
can no longer be considered In its ex.

The Uses of Aluminium.

Aluminium Is now finding consider
able employment in this country as
substitute for copper as an electrical
conductor in connection with the
transmission of power over long dis.
tances. One of the most important
of these installations is the transmits
sion of 10000 horsepower from the
Snoqualmie falls to Seattle and Ia
coma, distance of more than 40
miles. In this scheme an alloy of
aluminium with 115 per cent of copper
has been used, the lightness and
strength or this alloy enabling spans
OF 100 feet to be made with safety.
A great saving in the number of poles
IA thus effected, which is said to be
one of the principal advantages gained.
Many other transmission schemes in
which aluminium is used or about to be
employed might be mentioned. Besides
the saving Ia poles, aluminium affords
a much smaller weight of conductor,
and is cheaper than copper. In round
numbers, for equal conductivity. the
section of an aluminium cable is ono
and half times that of copper one.
the weight Is half and the tensile
strength three-quarters. 1t is the de-
creased weight which, in spite of the
smaller tensile strength, allows longer
spans to be used, and this effect can
be made more marked by the use of
suitable alloy possessing increased
strength without much diminished
conductivity or much higher specific
gravity.

Poem by stonewall jackson,

The Richmond Times is authority
for the statement that this poem was
written by Stonewall Jackson while he
was serving with the army in the
Mexican war:
The tattoo beats-the lights are gone,
The camp around in slumber lies;
The night with solemn pace moves on,
The shadows thicken Ger the skies;
But sleep my weary eyes hath flown
And sad, uneasy thoughts arise.
think Of thee, oh. dearest one
Whose love my early life hath blest--
OF thee and him-our baby SON
Who slumbers on thy gentle breast.
God of the tender, frail. and lone,
Oh. guard the tender sleepers rest,
And hover gently, hover near
To her, whose watchful eye Is wet
To mother, wife--the doubly dear.
In whose young heart have freshly met
Two streams of love so deep and clear
And cheer her dropping spirits yet.
Whatever fate those forms may show,
Loved with a passion almost wild
BY day-by night-in Joy or woe
BY fears oppressed, or hopes beguiled,
From every danger, every foe.
God. protect my wife and child
Now, while she kneels before thy throne,
oh, tach her. ruler of the skies,
That. while by thy behest alone.
Earth's mightiest powers fall or rise,
No tear Is wept to thee unknown,
No hair is lost. no sparrow dies!
That thou can'st stay the ruthless hands
OF dark disease, and soothe its pain;
That only by thy stern commands
The battles lost, the soldiers slain
That from the distant sea or land
Thou bring'st the wanderer home again.
And when upon her pillow lone
Her tear-wet cheek is sadly prest
May happier visions beam upon
The Frightening current of her breast,
No frowning look nor angry tone
Disturbs the Sabbath OF her rest.

TEN PER CENT REDUCTION
Cotton Mills in New England Reduce
Wages.


Boston, Mass, Nov. 23.-The 10 per
cent reduction in wages in the cotton
mills of southern New England went
into effect today, the cut affecting in
all not less than 10000 people.
The reduction was long expected by
the operatives and no serious trouble
is anticipated, though there is general
dissatisfaction amoug the workers and
particularly in the Fall River district
The reduction means a loss OF
wages of between five and six million
d9s|itaaaiifSi naetlli7ea. as give as the reason
for the cut in wages is the fact that
for some time they have been manu-
featuring goods and selling them for
less than cost The say nearly all that
has been gained has been done so by
fortunate speculation in cotton. The
mill owners have been agitating the
reduction for some time but could not
make the cut until it was agreed to by
all the mills.
In the Fall River section about so
mills owned by 40 corporations are rep
resented in the reduction. In the New
Bedford district the mill employ about
10000 hands, and those in Rhode Is.
land and eastern Connecticut about
10000.

COMPANY IN TACT
-
Reserves Will Prob
ably Be able to Stand
Examination
ARE NOW on PROBATION
Commander CoIding Will be in the
City Next Week to Look Into the
Affairs and do What he Can
for the Company.

AS has been stated in these col
umns before, the Naval Reserves
were put on 80 days probation by
General Obear when he inspected the
company few weeks ago, and it is
now probable that the company will
be rehabilitated and will be in a posi-.
tion to stand the necessary examin.
alton at the expiration of the time
limit.
1t is well known fact that there
has been a lack of interest in the
naval militia lately and the company
has been in rather bad standing, but
it is believed that, by proper effort, it
can be brought out in good shape
and will well stand the examination.
1t is learned that Commander Cold
ing will use his efforts to keep the
company in existence, and will be in
the city sometime next week to in
vestigate the condition of the COM
mand and see just what is needed.
The officers are confident they can,
in 80 days, bring the Reserves up to
their former standard and in all prob
ability meeting W i be held at an
early date at whic a definite de.

MAcHEN ls NOW ON TRIAL
A Strong Legal Fight is Now Looked

for.
Washington, Nov, 23.-The case of
August w. Machen, Samuel A. and
Diller B. Croft and George E. and
Martha J. Lorenz, which was called
for trial in the district criminal court
here today and it is expected to de-
velop one of the bitterest legal bat
ties in the history Of the government.
This is the first case growing out OF
the alleged conspiracy between Mach
en- as superintendent of the free rural
delivery service to profit through the
purchase of patent fasteners made by
the Croft brothers for attaching mail
boxes to posts. The government says
it has documentary evidence to prove
that Machen received, through the
Lorenzs in Ohio, percentage OF all
the money paid the Groffs BY the
government.
Fifteen indictments have been re-
turned against Machen alone and the
government is prepared to make a
strong fight to- convict him on the first
trial.
