Photography by Electricity.

A representative from this Office called
in the gallery and studio yesterday owned
and conducted by Thos. Southworth, who
has attained considerable distinction in
the State as having introduced the use
of court views as newspaper illustra-
tons, and who is also portrait artist
of extensive reputation.
We found the photographer busy re-
touching some work. In the studio was
a new apparatus which has Just been
installed, an invention which promises
to revolutionize the work of photog-
raphy, the,real intention Of which is to
replace the use of daylight with that of
light produced by electricity, light
which can be produced and diffused
with uniformity and regularity at any
hour of the day.
We drew from Mr.. Southworth the
fact that the present machine was the
latest invention and that it was the only
one now in use in the State. Mr.. South
worth says that the machine is the pro-
duct of an Ohio inventor, well known
photographer, and that it has been test
ed and approved as a practical success
in every way.
Photographers have been seeking for
a number of years to find an artificial
light which can be controlled so that it
can be employed for general use in pho
Biography, medium which may obvi-
ate the troublesome annoyance of hay
ing to disappoint patrons on account of
cloudy weather; they have been look
ing for a way to accommodate their
patrons whose business prevents them
from making daylight sittings; and it
is stated with positive assurance that
this means has at last been discovered
and is now in practical use in Union
City by Mr.. Southworth.
The machine stands about eight feet
high. The electric fixtures are enclosed
in large perpendicular box, mounted
on stand with castors to make it port
able. The box is adjusted so that it
can be moved up or down at the pleas
ure of the operator who may wish to
take standing or sitting posture, The
light is diffused through a fine white
cloth, chemically saturated. In the
back is on opening from which the
lights are adjusted. This is closed by
means of a shutter.
A bulb and apparatus connects the
which works automatically, re-
curing the operator no further trouble
than under the old way.

Fatal Auto Accident.

San Antonio, Texas, May 90. Joseph
E. Yeargin, %, was instantly killed and
Charles T. Fincham, As, prominent
contractor, lies in the hospital with a
broken back, and young woman
companion miraculously escaped injury
this morning when their automobile
skidded Just outside the city limits and
dashed into telegraph pole. A pass
ing auto brought the dead man, his ia
tally injured companion and the girl
into the city at a ffty-mile-an-hour clip
and rushed them to a hospital.
Yeargin was regarded as an authority
on real estate matters in his section and
Fincham was a contractor who had
long been identified with the building
progress in San Antonio.
Mr.. Yeargin was well known in this
city. His mother moved here several
years ago from Dyer County in order to
secure the advantages of our public
schools, and later moved from here to
Dyrsburg.

ton, of equal importance probably to
that of making pictures by electricity,
is that all photography under this
method is done by instantaneous ex-
posure, very apparent to everyone when
they take into consideration the trouble
of making exposures of babies or
groups of any kind.
The only drawback at present, if it
may be considered of any significance
is the lack ofeXperience in handling the
machine, and that has been practically
eliminated by Mr.. Southworth, who has
been experimenting with fashlight pho
tograhy for number of years. Mr..
Southworth says that he is now taking
sittings for photographs by electricity
altogether and that his future business
will be done with the method entirely.
The machine reduces the art of photog-
raphy to greater science, the light
produced by it being utilized to greater
advantage in the lighting and shading
effects. That has been one of the de-
velopments of the machine and one
which is very valuable in the produc-
ton of art work, to which Mr.. South
worth devotes great deal of time.
Photography by electricity is a great
success, and we congratulate Mr.. South
worth in first taking advantage oft.

Training School Commencement.

The Union City Training School
which is steadfastly and unquestionably
developing and forming an important
/ place in the educational world, espe
cially in Tennessee, is now holding its
annual commencement at Reynolds
Opera House. The exercises began
Wednesday night with program which
has heretofore been published.
The first part, under the direction OF
Mr.. Newberry, was opened by invoca-
ton by Rev. Watson, followed in a
contest in defamation by the younger
boys and girls of the school, The mu-
sic was by Miss Killough's class, and
there was marked improvement over
last year in this department The first
number was by Georgia Usry, and then
Others by Allie B. Campbell, Virginia
Swiggart, Clara Parks and Ruth Parks.
The students reading were Charles
Dircks Moss, Elizabeth Moss, Virginia
Swiggart, lima Mailing, Clara Parks,
Edward Parks, Lou Mott, Winnie Diet
EEL Nellie Dietzel, Fannie Mott Driskill,
Carmen Parks, Ruth Walters. 1t gives
us the greatest pleasure to say that for
uniform merit and standard of excel
lence the subjects were treated by these
young people in a remarkably in
telligent manner. 1t may be said also,
and without reflection upon any other
of the school, that the
junior classes carried off the honors of
the evening in the work of expression or
defamation. There has never, as far
as we are able to Judge, been anything
here to excel them. Two or three of |
the numbers, especially, were gems and
a credit to both the pupil and the in
structoT.
Part second was by the young
men assisted by Mr.. Ownby's music pu-
pills, including Miss Rebecca McKinnis,
Miss Cora Palmer, Miss Mary Lou
Driskill, Miss Katherine Morris. The
piano numbers were fine and the violin
and vocal by Misses Driskill and Morris
very popular. The young men in the
contest were Paul Erwin, William
Morris Hardy, Robert Marshall, Russell
5pradlin, Frank Key, Cecil Moss, The
subjects were all suitable and appro-
pirate and the young men covered them
selves with much glory. The judges
will render their decisions at the opera
house this morning.
Last night the graduating class occu-
pied the stage, a report of which we will
present next week.
