PHOTOGRAPHY AND FINE ART.
Camera Pictures Much More Than Me
 chanieal Reproduction.

Few persons could be found who would deny the claims Of photography to rank among the fine arts, when skillully used and properly controlled, since the photography of of today is something more than a mechanical re- production. The individuality of the photographer is being expressed in his work almost as much as is that of the painter. The painter still has the advantage, for while he may give us an impression fuller than that made by nature upon the eye, the photographer can deal only with that which is ob- served with such unerring fidelity and skill by a mechanical eye. Compost tion is therefore one of the necessary principles to the photographer who thus supplies the mechanical eye with a mind, yet he must study lighting at different hours of the day and varying weather conditions that he may know the best effects to be obtained. Many otherwise successful photographers need to realize that scientific accuracy Is not necessarily artistic truth, so that, while one actualizes. the definite sharpness may be softened anu the ei- feet ennanced.--iome Magazine.

HAD NO USE FOR MIGRANTS.
Idle Persons Discouraged by the Laws
 of Old England.

The denunciation of those who would have been called in Elizabeth an English sturdy rogues," at the Congregational Union debate on un- employment, is only repetition ot the sentiments of Edward NI., when with one stroke of the pen, he found- ed Grey Friars and St. Thomas hos pital, that children shall not lack good education, nor the idle and lazy yagabonds be without honest and wholesome labor, which they shall be compelled to do." For the hospital in those days sought with a wonderful insight into human na- ture to cure the mind and the body together, and not separately. It un- dertook in its covenant with the king ''to comfort, ayde, and relieve poor wayfaring men and strangers, and to find fos such as have power and strength and be meet to labour, some kind of occupation as the same shall be most apt for while "for the idle, wicked, and unwilling, CO., ercion was to be used,
 With the treasurer of the hospital rested the delicate task of deciding whether the man brought before him was unfortunate or criminal, and he had the power, with one almoner, to "eXamine, commit to prison, reprove, banish, put to labor, punish, or, being diseased, admit in- 10 the hospital. , One can gather that he was not oyerpaid for all this form the remark in the covenant, that "his labor and pains shall be rewarded at the hands of Almighty God, whom in the office he chiefly serves, the apostle himself saying that godliness shall have its reward not only in this world, but also in the world to come They were more advanced in 1553 than We are, in some ways; but they were equally slow to admit that unemployment should be a national concern, and not a matter of private charity.-- London Chronicle.

CONFIDENCE SHAKEN.

When the doctor came and pro- nounced it mild case of scarlet fever, the mother of siX-vear-old Betty requested him, as the child was of a very sensitive, high-strung temperament, and had been great ly wrought up recently by the death of a playmate from the same disease, to refer to her illness as measles in her presence.
 The plan worked beautifully un- til one day when Betty was conya- lescent a visitor jocosely asked her how she liked scarlet fever by this time.
 The child's eyes widened and an Indignant look stole over her face. Pointing her finger at her mother, the exclaimed with great scorn:
 Now, mother, you have deceived me about Santa Claus, and you have deceived me about scarlet fever; now, how do l know that you have not deceived me about Adam and Eve and the garden of Eden ?" -Lippincotts.

BABY'S AWFUL HUMoR.
Thin Skin Formed Over Body and Un. der It Was Watery EIood-Cured in
 One Week by Cuticura Remedies,

When my little girl baby was one week old she had skin disease A thin skin formed over her body and under it was watery blood, and when she was washed it would burst and break. She was in that condition for weeks, and I tried everything I could think of, but nothing did her any good. When she was three months old l took her to San Antonio to see a doctor, but the doctor we wanted to see was not at home, so my sister gave me a cake of Cuticura Soap and half a box of Cuticura Ointment, and told me to use them, which I did in time. l used them three times, and the humor began to fade, and in one week she was sound and well, and 1t has never returned since. I think every mother should keep the Cuti. cura Remedies in the house Mrs. H. Aaron. Benton, Texas, July 3, 1905."

NEW YEARS CALLS.
4 New Drink to Replace the old-' 'fno
 "Apple-Jack."

Twenty-Five years ago the custom oi making New Years calls was ae- lightful one for all concerned un',, some of the boys got more "egg-hoe or apple jack" than they could suo- cessfully carry. ,,.
 Then the ladies tried to be chafit' able and the gentlemen tried lo v. as chivalrous as ever and stand up "' the same time.
 If anyone thinks there has not peen considerable improvement made in lno last quarter of century in the u0o of aicoohlic beverages. let him s.op to consider. among other things 'ne fact that the old custom of New ear ? calls and the genteel tippling is near" obsolete.
 The custom of calling on one friends, however, at the beginning oi the new year, Is Q good habit, anu an other good habit to start at that 'ilno is the use of well-made Postum III stead of coffee or spirits.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE WELL RE.
 CEIVED BY ALL.
Galleries Were Crowded and Docu- ment Listened to With Much
 interest.

presidents message consumed two hours and twenty-five minutes in the house December and was followed closely by large number of members while the crowded galleries gave close consideration.
 Here and there the reading of the document was punctuated with ap- plause. and hearty handclapping from Democrats as well as Republicans, followed it's conclusion. During the major portion of the time of the read ing of the message, Representative Lacy of Iowa acted as speaker pro tenn, being the first of the defeated stand -patters" to be recognized by Speaker Cannon.
 While the house waited upon the secretary to the president to appear with the message, Speaker Cannon ap- pointed Robert G. Cousins of Iowa chairman of the Committee on For eign Affairs to succeed the late Rob- ert Hit of Illinois. He also appoint ed Representative Frank O. Lowden to a place on the same committee to fill the vacancy caused by the death of MT. Hit.
 After the customary resolutions re lating to the printing of the message the house, at 2:53 D. m., adjourned until noon December ,.
 The presidents views on the in heritance and income taxes pleased the Democrats, Representative Champ Clark of Missouri expressing the sen timent that the president had stol- en, taken away and converted to his own use another plank of the Demo crats."
 President Rooseyelt's discussion of the San Francisco school situation was received with great dissatisfac- tion by the California delegation. They are unanimous in their declaration that no rights have been violated in excluding Japanese from public schools attended by whites.
 The suggestion in President Roose- velts message that naturalization be extended to Japanese is extremely dis  in the house.
 The following are some of the prin- cipal points in the message.
 When our system of taxation is next revised We should have a graduated inheritance tax and, if possible, a graduated income tax.
 Banks should be allowed to issue additional notes in time of money stringency.
 Farmers organizations commended Work of Department of Agricul- tuge.

EXPOSITION PLAN
IS PERFECTED

A meeting of those interested In the
Worlds Fair, which is to be held in
this city in 1913, was held yesterday
afternoon at the Union League Club.
Those present were William F. Herrin,
r. B. Hale, Rufus P. Jennings. I. W.
Hellman Jr., and DR.. Hartland Law.
1t was decided to take immediate
steps to incorporate, and R. B. Hale Is
drafting a general plan for the enter
prise. The two different groups of
persons which have at different times
advanced plans for the fair are now
working in harmony. The railroads
will join the originators of the plan
and will give rates as well as aiding
financially.
In regard to the fair which Los An
geles is proposing to hold the position
was taken that the application which
San Francisco had made to Congress
for an appropriation was a caviat to
the world of the intention to hold a
fair here, but that If the southern city
desired to hold fair there would be no
objection and San Francisco would give
their project support and expect the
same from them.
The fair will commemorate the dis
covery of the Pacific by Balboa and 1t
is the intention of the incorporators
to lay their plans on broad lines and
make the fair an international exposi-
tion of the first rank.

urday morning following. was retold

condition since May. He said he and
she had been intimate for year.

as you say, and she was foundering
desperately in the water, why did you
not go to her assistance?" Under Sher-
If Klock swore today that he asked
his prisoner.
Because the young man replied. Il
was afraid that she might struggle so
that we would both go down."

GREENwATER's BIG FIELD
Norman Talks of New Copper District
as RfvaIing Butte

Interest In the Greenwater copper
section in Inyo County continues to
grow.
Many mining men of widely known
experience and high standing have Wis
tied the district, enduring personal in
convenience and hardships to make
the journeys.
Sidney Norman of Butte. Mont. has
returned from Greenwater. Mr.. Nor
man is quoted as saying:
There is little question that the
Greenwater mining district is destined
to become a great copper producer, and
may even, within a comparatively few
years, develop into a lusty rival of
Butte, which still holds undisputed
sway as the greatest of all copper min
ing centers.
This conclusion has been reached
after a six weeks stay in the camp and
is confirmed by the unanimous opinion
of every prominent mining engineer
and geoIogist who has visited the dis
trict. The surface showings are won
derful In strength and continuity and
unless all signs utterly fail an i'm
mense tonnage will be developed with
in the next few years. One remarkable
feature of the district is In the fact
that capital has become interested
simultaneously with the prospector.
and it is doubtful If any camp has wit
messed such an influx of money at a
similar stage of development. With
such men as Patsy Clark. John w.
Gates. Charles Schwab and others
equally we'll known for their aggres-
sive tactics to carry civilization to the
trackless desert waste in which the
district is situated, there is not much
doubt of the ultimate destiny of Green
water.
The known mineral zone now COW
ars an area of more than twenty miles
long north and south, and during the
past summer has been extended west
erly down the forbidding desolation of
Death Valley Slope. At the present
time there are probably 500 men in the
district, while scant half dozen
women have braved the discomforts
which beset one on every hand. Three
townsitea have already been laid out
