How Improvement Could Be Made.

The plots of ground around around
the court house could be very much
beautifed by the artistic planting or
shrubs and flowers and a few hun
dred dollars spent this way would GER
tainly add the finishing touches to an
already beautiful piece of public prop
erty. Crown Point has the reputation
of being q pretty town If nothing else,
and it would be well to keep up her
reputation in that respect, as few other
Lake county towns can boast of much
in that line.

MILLIONS PAID FOR CATTLE.
In Two Days Last Week $4,000 Head
Were Received I'm Kansas City.

At the Kansas City stock yards in
two days last week close to $4,000
900 were paid for stock says the
Kansas City Star. OF this amount
the greater part went to Kansas,
though Missouri, Arkansas, OklahO-
ma, Texas. New Mexico, Arizona,
Utah, Idaho. Colorado, Nebraska and
Iowa helped to swell the two days re-
ceipts of cattle to $4,000, or 10000
more than the Chicago receipts
Nebraska carried off the honors for
the best cattle. A three-carload
bunch from the Harbaugh ranch sold
at $3.50. Kansas was second with
1898 to 1421-pound steers at 1925 to
$40, and Missouri first in the year
ling class with tidy weight beeves at
$6.75.
On the buying side of the market
27 states were represented. Massa-
chusetts and New York were after
export grades and nearly every state
between here and the Atlantic coast
took butcher grades. A number of
thin cattle went to eastern states,
though Illinois, Iowa Nebraska, Kan

sas and Missouri took most Of the
feeding cattle.
This is the time of the year when
the movement of range cattle is the
important market factor and Kansas
City generally exceeds Chicago in the
number received. About 10000 of
the entire cattle received here in the
two days were fattened on grass, and
traders say the movement of range
cattle is just beginning.

the diaphragm. To make n fairy ap-
pear pose the actress and, beginning
with a closed diaphragm, open it
gradually.
For miracles Of magic, slowly close
the diaphragm, thus blotting out one
figure; while II is closed substitute
another. Run the film back to the
point where the first actress begins
to fade out, start the machine slowly
open the diaphragm and you make
the second actress seem to evolve out
out the first, since the new pictures
will be caught upon the same parts

Making Night Pictures.
When the artists have gone home
and the lights are out the pranks Of
the biograph are continued in the
manipulation of the films. The elsion
Of certain pictures will improve the
fun or mask the mechanics Of fairy

Night scenes will be dipped in blue

To dress up score OF people as
PapouesIans and to erect little bam-
boo villages In the Bois de Vincennes
was mere child's play. 1t was equal
ly easy to transport clown and per-
ambulator to Saint German, Nantes
and Andelys along all the dizzy slopes
that could be found. But how to ar
range the trip across the ocean?
At Havre a second baby carriage
was built without wheels and perfect
ly seaworthy The clown got aboard,
and a tug towed the extraordinary
craft out to sea, while the biograph
apparatus followed and pictured the
dancing baby carriage traversing the
water BY touching out the tow
rope in the photographs the trick was
completed.
There's a better one still. BY some
amazing enchantment the blograph
can make horses gallop backward
and make hats jump from the ground
and place themselves on their owners
heads. The film has simply been re-
versed.
Making the Comic.
To produce certain lengthy comic
scenes, with wOndrous fairies per-
forming in them, the biograph man
must have the interior of a theater
at his disposal With the exception
OF the Opera and the Chatelet, no
theater In Paris is well equipped as
a biograph establishment. The
Goumonts have one 140 feet long, |
with stage 60 feet deep and 105 feet
high. The stage flooring is strong
enough to uphold a troupe of ele-
pants, and has two approaches for
teams.
The. problem Of lighting, here Of
prime Importance, is solved by
powerful arc lights afforded addition

hey that they will blister your hands

within their glare.
Everybody was delighted with the
Idventures of the gentleman who
walked up he side OF the wall and
an along the ceiling like a fly. Here
S the secret. A stage set representing
parlor wall was laid upon the floor;
arther on a second stage set showed
room wall; a third did Yor the deco
ated ceiling.
Each had all its appropriate appur-
onances. The apparatus was carried
0 the top of the theater and the ]
ens pointed downward. The actor
rawled on all fours from one stage
ct to the next. while the operator ,
lrned the crank. The film showed :

METHOD Of MAKING MOVING PICTURE FILMS

Since Pendleton has half dozen
moving picture shows. the manner Of
making the films for the pictures will
be exceedingly interesting to the
readers Of the East oregonian. The
following description of the process
while quite lengthy, Will be read with
interest
The scenes enacted upon the can
vas must, Of course, be first enacted
before the apparatus. If their setting
is the streets of Paris, they are per-
formed entire and au naturel in the

TUNED and made up.
