Color Photoaraphy a Success.

I. Anderson, In Harper's Weekly.
 The cry of wolf" had been 30 often raised, that when the real wolf came, he found no preparations little belief and no welcome. So writes c. H. Claudy in the Technical World Magazine for March.
 The newspapers have for years been heralding color photography as about to arrive, nearly here. or actually accom- plished, and in every case where there was any ground for the rumor. the pro- cess was found imperfect, difficult, ex- pensive or with some other objection which made it a process only for the scientists and the laboratory. When. therefore, 1t was stated that color pho- tography had really arrived, by process which any one could work, with the cam era used for ordinary work and with ma terials which were to be bought In the open market-a process which required absolutely no special apparatus, save one yellow screen, which needed but one eX- posture on one plate in an ordinary cam era with the usual lens. and which rem dered colors not merely nearly perfect" or almost as good'' but absolutely and perfectly true to nature, and that all this marvel could be bought for a few dollars, nobody believed 1t!
 Nevertheless it is all true.
 The house of Lumiere, of France, has placed upon the market what they call their Autochrome plate
 These plates render colors as eolors, not as tones of monochrome
 The plates contain the experience and the colors-all that is asked of the user is correct exposure, the use of the screen, and care in the laboratory or room hand ling of the plates.
 The writer gives an account of his own experience with these plates and tells of their manufacture Some excellent mil cro-photographs of the plates themselves Illustrate the articles.

BIRMINGHAM IS FAST BECOMING
 \ HORSE AND MULE CENTER

Messrs. Fes & Sons are to hold another big auction of horses and mules at their new stables on next Wednesday, Febru- ary 26th, which continues all day.
 In speaking of this sale, MT. Fies stated that they had secured 150 head, among which are horses and mules suited for all kinds of work, and this amount is being added to daily.
 While they expect to have quite a num- Der of low priced horses and mules in this sale the general quality offered will be better than any of their previous sales.
 This firm is endeavoring to make Bir- mingham the banner horse and mule mar ket of the state and in this sale will try to beat the record made by them on F eb- ruary 5th, in which they sold IT head in six hours.
 The purchasers are just as safe in buy ing from this old reliable firm at auction as they would be at private sale, as they tell the purchaser everything they know about each animal.

TOURNAMENT IS MOST
 SUCCESSFUL EVER HELD
Three Thousand Dollars of the Re- ceipts Will Be Devoted To Charity. Very Few Protests Were
 Made By Contestants.

Cincinnati, February 22.-(specal.)-The eighth annual tournament of the Amer ican Bowling congress, the greatest in it's history, came to an, end here this afternoon and. Chicago once more scored heavily in all three events, two of the championships going to the Garden City Harry A. Kiene and James Y. Chalmers won the doubles with 1254, which should be 1255 by unofficial count, while Archie Wengler, also of Chicago. assumes the individual total of 699. The Bonds of Co., lumbus won the fives with 2s97 Thursday. Kiene and Chalmers made their score on the second day of the work in the minor events and 1t withstood the ter rife cannonading clear to the end Weng- ler's score was late one, and the only man who threatened him was Elmer Jones, another West Slider, who was not considered great enough to shoot on his five-men team and who dropped 6S4 the same day the new champion bowled.
 The nine-game average prize was won by Russell Crable, an East Liverpool. O., boy, with 2126-9 All of the records made here are tournament records and
  This is largely due to the pins having been kiln dried for over a year, and being bored on the bottom to accom- modate the new pin spotters The fact that the bowlers rolled all three games of each series on the same set of alleys also helped make the scores run large.
 Another distinction gained by the pres ent meet Is the fact that it made money, the first time in eight years that result has been achieved. This is largely due to Garry Hermann's popularity and it means that local charities will be some $3Oo0 the gainer, as the local committee refuses to accept any profit for them- selves. Hospitality has been of the best kind and bowlers have but one ''holler'' coming-the lax way in which the score keepers worked Many protests have been filed in the minor events, but lucki- ly none of the leaders are challenged
 The prize list of the winners in the fve-men teams who participated in the congress was made up last night and the checks mailed to the successful teams today. The Bonds of Columbus won first prize with a score of 2e27. and will re- ceive ss50. The Tosettis Of Chicago fin- fshed second with 2S66 and their share of the prize money is s7Oo. Blue Rib-. bons of Erie. Pa, with 2S51, receive $525.
 The last double events at the interna- tional bowling tournament of the Amer ican Bowling congress were finished to- day. None of the contestants managed to get in the prize list.
 Chalmers and Kline of Chicago are the double champions. They rolled 1,254 pins, and won the first prize of $500.

San Francisco, February 22.-(Special.)- In minute 1S1s seconds from the time the clang of the starting gong rang out at coffroth's arena this afternoon Mike (Twin) Sullivan of Boston lay under the ropes of the ring motionless as a log. His eyes were closed and his lips were stained with blood. A few feet from him on the mat was the gold crown of tooth which had been knocked from his mouth by one of Ketchells wicked punches. In the middle of the ring stood Ketchell, awaiting results.
 Ten seconds later Snllivan's handlers were moving his head and yanking at his arms ot hasten his retur nto conscious ness.

Opinion on the fight will vary.
 To some it will rank with such sensa- tional victories as that of Dal Hawkins over Martin Flaherty at Carson and Jim my Burns triumph over Squires. To others, who prefer to regard it as a fiasco, 1t will stand out as more miserable ex- hibition than the one Squires, the Aus tralian, made with Champion of the World Burns. Aside from it's brevty, it was vicious, sincere, honest battle.
 Ketchell handled Sullivan Nin 8 more worlxmanlilxe manner than Joe Cans did. It took Cans few rounds to solve Sul- livar's curves Ketchell seemed to Axnow his man like a book from the moment the fight started and dealt with him accord- ingly.
