COLOR PHOTOGRAPHY.
French System Said to Be Adapted to
Use of Amateurs.

Consul w J. Pike writes to the bureau
of manufactures from kehl, Germany, that
a method of color photography has at last
been found by French firm or Lyon,
who have been successful in discovering
method by which even the amateur can
prove the mode Of procedure for himself
The consul writes:
THE treatment of the new color photog-
raphy distinguishes itself especially by the
simple way in which the photograph Is
taken. The plate is evenly covered with
layer of colored corn starch (blue. green
and red), and behind this filter on further
isolated layer is placed an emulsion "hlcn
is sensitive for all colors. For the actual
taking of a photograph yellow inter IS
necessary, which has the property of equal
izng the very bright colors with those OF
paler In taking photograph the
light penetrates the glass OF the plate ana
color filter and then strikes the nght-sensl-
tive emulsion. By this method the time OF
exposure is much shorter than When II was
necessary to take the photograph tnrough
the three colored filters. In dull weather
portrait can be taken in closed room
with an exposure of from one to TWO MIN
utes but, of course, strong size hshts are
necessary for a successful photograph. IN
bright weather in the open the time OF
exposure will be reduced to fifteen to tWen-
ty seconds. In order to obtain good re-
suits it is absolutely necessary to expose
the plate for a sufficient length or time.
II the plate is under exposed, instead "a
keeping its colors it will gradually turn
black. -
THE development process is not very DIFF
ficult in itself, the chief thing being ex-
tremely careful work with the developers.
The plates are developed for two minutes
with a specific developer In a dark room.
The plates are then washed and put INTO
another bath, but then they may be worked
in full daylight. In the bath the negative
will be turned into a diapositive by chemi-
cal action, and in order to make the colors
clearer and to strengthen the outlines OF
the photograph it Is necessary to use yet
another developer which will act as
strengthener With progressive work the
colors increase in beauty. From twenty to
twenty-five minutes, after the photograph
has been taken it is possible to obtain a
clear natural color picture. The really good
reproduction of the coors is very s surpris
reyolution in photography for it has been
the aim Of photographers for many years
to produce a photograph in natural colors.
which has at last been accomplished In
not too complicated way. AT present the
colored pictures are sui on GLASS anu oiiiS
original.

12Ith street and Lexington avenue. 10 Sta
tion at the Grand Central station. is
nearing completion, and in very few
weeks the mail service in the upper part of
the city will ~ rapid as that In the
middle of Manhattan.
When these tubes are put into operation
New York will have the greatest and most
complete mail system OF any city In the
world. The majority OF the big branch sta
lions were connected with the general post
Office and the chief branch at the Grand
Central by pneumatic tubes some years ago,
and II only remained TO install the service
in the two big Harlem stations TO complete
the system.
The new tubes will greatly facilitate the
delivery OF ''city letters" mailed in Har-
lem, making II possible to get them TO their
destinations within almost an hour of the
time they are collected. and will also make
the early morning delivery Morningside
Heights a delivery in something more than
name.
The exchange of letters between the big
branches and the other parts of the city
VIII be almost instantaneous, and out-of-
town letters will go direct to the Grand
Central station without a long delay.
