Most Rapid Photographs Ever Taken
The most remarkable set of speed
photographs ever taken are part OF
the war departments exhibit in Ma
chinery Hall at the Panama-Pacific In
ternational Exposition. San Francisco
They are pictures OF shell from 12-
inch coast defense gun in night, the
set including the various phases OF
the fight beginning just as the great
projectile pokes its nose out Of the
muzzle Of the gum.
The pictures were taken with a
lens having an exposure period Of
one five-thousandth of a second, this
being the fastest shutter ever manu-
featured. The exposure at the proper
time in the flight of the proiectile
was made by breaking an electric cir
cult in q wire stretched across the
trajectory at the desired point and
connecting with the shutter.
One picture shows the shell half
way out OF the muzzle before any
smoke and gas has escaped. Another
was taken when the shell was two
feet from the muzzle but hidden by q
heavy ring OF smoke. A third shows
the shell in flight n hundred feet from
the muzzle. The photographs are SO
perfect and the exposure so rapid that
scarcely any blur is perceptible. They
were taken at Fortress Monroe, Va, un'
der the direction of Capt. #. ],
Behl OF the coast artillery corps and
head of the department Of enlisted
specialists at the Coast ARTILLERY
school at Fortress Monroe.

The photograph SHOWS the belle
OF the interesting Samoan village at
the Panama.Paclfio international Elk
position at San Francisco. The struc-
lures in this village, comprising the
native matched huts of the Samoan
or as they we're formerly called, the
Navigator islands, were brought In
tact from the native villages and are
absolutely faithful in all their fea-
lures. There are many native fam
flies living in the village who for
the edifcation of visitors perform the
aquatic feats in which the islanders
excel, and dance the rhythmic native
dances. The life of the people OF the
Pacific ocean is wonderfully illus.
trated at the Exposition, and OF all
the races none are more interesting
than the Samoans who exhibit many
traces OF Aryan descent No Exposi-
ton visitor should fail to see these
unique tribespeople.

Duplicate Of the Roosevelt African
Shotpun,

Duplicate Of the Roosevelt African
Shotgun.
A duplicate of the shotgun which
Col. Theodore Roosevelt took with him
on his African trip, gun constructed
expressly for him by an American
armorer, is on display at the manufac-
turer's exhibit in the Manufacturers
Palace at the Panama. Pacific Interna-
tional Exposition, San Francisco. The
gun cost its illustrious owner $3.50,
and its beautiful design, graceful
lines and wonderful inlay work would
justify the expenditure to any lover
Of fine pieces. The stock is elabo-
rately hand carved, the barrels and
lock are hand engraved, and the lock
Is inlaid with hunting scene in gold.
The barrels are of the finest Krupp
steel. Before starting on the trip the
ex-president wrote to the makers: Il
really think it is the most beautiful
gun I have ever seen. am almost
ashamed to take 1t to Africa and sub
ject 1t to the rough treatment 1t will
receive"
The left barrel Is choked and the
right open. It is cored to shoot either
buckshot or a single ball.
In a group in this Palace are dis
plays by four Of the worlds greatest
manufacturers of sporting arms, which
form an exhibit which attracts hum
dreds Of sportsmen, Each display is
in charge Of firearms expert.
Pearl Culture q New Industry.
Among the interesting exhibits Of
the Japanese In the Manufacturers
Palace at the Panamalf acific Interna-
tional Exposition is demonstration
of the methods and results Of pearl
cultivation in the far East. The dis
plays of this cultivated product, show
ing hundreds of pearls which until
pearl culture was placed on COM
mercial basis a few years ago would
have been the possessions of royalty,
will delight any lover Of beautiful
gems, and the methods Of production
will prove interesting to any OBJ
server. Though pearl culture has be
come thriving industry in Japan, at
tempts to reproduce 1t in other parts
of the world have yielded but meagel
results.
The successful method Of propaga
ton was evolved by the Japanese sci
enlist Kokichi Mikimoto, who discov
cred q species Of oyster which pro
duced the pearl on the surface Of thu
shell. Though the finding Of the oys
ters and inserting the nuclei, thel
waiting for the pearl to grow to
commercial size may seem simple
process, the fact that 1t has not re
duced the price OF the gems, even Il
that Of the most expensive limitations
shows that It is beset with many diff
culties.

Favor Over Lug-wheeler Trac-
tore In Farm Machinery.
An observer in the Agriculture Pal
ace at the Panama Pacific Interna-
tional Exposition at San Francisco
cannot help noticing, in the display of
agricultural power machinery, the al
most complete supersedence of the
new design of power tractor, known as
the caterpillar. over the cumbersome,
unstable, high-wheeled engine of
few years ago. There are few of the
old models on exhibition, while the
caterpillar principle has been applied
to almost every type of engine for ag-
ricultural purposes.
The caterpillar proper is heavy
sheet metal chain, varying in width
from ten inches to two feet according
to the weight of the engine, which
passes around two heavy sprocket
wheels like belt. These wheels re-
volving, pass the chain about them,
the lower part moving backward, with
the weight Of the engine resting on
the broad surface of the chain be-
tween the two sprockets.
An engine Of this type can be op.
