to All Records to Be Broken
in the Swine Show.

INDICATIONS are that the cattle
show at the Minnesota State Fair,

The splendid crop conditions in the
Northwest, and the greater attention
which Is being paid to pure-bred live,
stock, are said to be the principal rea-
sons for the interest which is being
taken In the cattle show at the Min
nesota State Fair. Breeders in other

it was far from being all smooth
sailing. 1t had its ups and downs
and more than once was on the thin
edge of failure. 1t was probably
these vicissitudes that cooled the ar
dor of the two Greeks, who first car
ried the kaleidoscope to England. In
any event they made all early exit
and Paul occupied the stage by him
self.
The greatest problem that Paul
had to face, even after he had devel-
oped world market for the ma
chimes, reaching even to New Zea-
land, Japan and South America, was
that of film supply. For this he was
dependent entirely on the output of
BLACK Maria, the fantastic name
by which Edison's first crude mo-
tion picture studio was known.
Finally two agents of this first
producer, who had secured
the exclusive control Of both his
and his film for the
European market, conceived what
they believed to be a brilliant idea.
They would obviate the neglected
English patent procedure by refus-
ing to sell films for any machine
other than that of Edison's own
make.
This was quite enough to cause
Paul CONSERVATION. 1t threatened
not only to despoil his future trade,
but also 10 work irreparable hardship
upon his previous customers. The
,nly escape that suggested itself was

Covers were laid for twelve

at Hotel Austin last Friday after
noon. The proprietors, Mr.. and Mrs.

TO the hostesses, the newly elected
Officers Of the Women's Civic I'M

the retiring officers. The chef at
Hotel Austin is the best the hotel
has ever known. and the service
knew not one flaw nor awkward in
terruption. The menu was most
skillfully selected and artistically
presented, and both entertainers and
entertained were appreciatiye of
merit.
An informal program was blended
among the courses of the menu. Mrs.
Emma Jack, In behalf of the presi-
dent Mrs. Neil, who was unayoidably
absent welcomed the guests, and
couched some deserving praise there
in.
Mrs. Jack acted as toastmistress.
She called upon Mrs. Barber, the new

responded in an earnest, practical
way, laying emphasis upon the aim
to acquire a building lot and to beau

lay the foundation for a club home

Mrs. Barrier was natural and enthusi-
astic. In her sweetly, kindly way
Mrs. Briggs, the guest of honor, re-
spended to "0ur New Officers"
Upon retiring to the parlor each
lady present, in due turn, presented
a bright thought, or plan to help !
the club grow and be of service. The
two which appealed to the writer
most forcibly were given by Mrs Sam

them sympathetic and intelligent
companions of their children in the
high school and fit to share their
studies; also that this phase of the
work was cultural, refining and spir-
itualizing.
Others followed rapidly with help
full suggestions, sometimes two or
three speaking at the same time, and
there was not a dull moment the en-
tire evening and everyone went home

History of Motion Picture Industry

the invention, on his own part, of a
motion picture camera and the man
ufacture of his own pictures. He
had no model to go by, but, through
patience and long experiment was
eventually successful. However the
quest including the manufacture of
several Intellectual devices before he
finally hit upon the practical one ate
up the larger part of the small for
tune he had made from his previous
sale of Microscopes.
/ AS future events proved 1t was, in
spite of its temporary hazard.
profitable investment principally be-
cause his successful invention of
camera gave Paul zest for further
experiments. Long before this 1t had
occurred to the Londoner that a mo-
tion picture device, like the Kline
toscope, would be vastly more profit
able If several people could see the
pictures at once. This gave him az
problem on which his brain was half
subconsciously working one evening
when he sat as spectator on even
ing at sterioption entertainment.
AS he watched the various photo
graphic views of still life thrown on
the screen, the idea came to him in
flash--why not apply this same
principle to motion pictures?
Paul went home to begin his ex-
periments next day upon what even
tually resulted in one of the first. If
not the very first projection machine
ever devised Mr.. Talbot. an English
author and consequently a compa-
trlot of the inventor, maybe prompt
ed somewhat by loyalty to British
blood in declaring Paul's the first
of the several projecting devices per-
fected at about this same time.
quote as follows from Mr.. Talbot's
book:
"About o'clock one morning, in
the early months of 1895, the quiet
ness of Hatton Garden was disturb
ed by loud and prolonged shouts.
The police rushed hurriedly to the
building whence the cries proceeded,
and found Paul and his colleagues
in their workshop, giving vent to
whole hearted exuberance of triumph.
They had just succeeded in throwing
the first perfect animated pictures
upon the screen. To compensate the
police for their fruitless investiga-
tion the film, which was 40 feet lang
and produced a picture feet square,
was run through the special lantern |
for their edification. They regarded |
the strange spectacle as ample COM
pensation and had the satisfaction
of being the first members of the
public to see motion pictures thrown
upon the screen"
Other writer's are not so entirely
positive as Talbot that Paul's was
the first projection machine. I'm
doubtedly several persons, in differ
ent corners of the world, were work
ing at this time toward the same
end, and wero almost contemporane-
GUS one with the other in reaching
passibly satisfactory results. 1t is
obvious that none of these persons
realized even a fractional part of
the real Importance of the work they
had done. But although they did |
not know it, they had insured the |
future of motion pictures on tre-
mendously extensive scale.
