PERFECTION SLOW TO COME
Evolution Of Photography Matter Of
I Many Years and the Work Of
a,,,.. Many Minds.

The distinction OF making the first
chemical step in the history of pho
Biography belongs to Italy, owing to the
discovery by a chemist of the six
teenth century that nitrate chloride Of
silver is blackened on exposure to
light, while the foundation Of pho
tographic optics was laid by Della
Porta in his invention about 1869 Of
the camera obscura, /. e., the darken-
ing Of nitrate of silver by light.
Experiments Ia 177T by Scheele, a
Swedish chemist, and by Ritter Of
Jena in 1901, in the action of rays Of
light upon horn silver, carried the
science a step further. But to Thorn
as Wedgwood of England belongs the
honor of having been the first TO pro-
duce photographs by the action Of
light on a sensitive surface produced
by nitrate of silver, his researches
being much aided by the observations
Of Sir Humphrey Davy. These pho
tographs were made in 1902.
Twelve years later Nicephore Niepce
of Chalons-sur-Saone was the first to
produce permanent pictures by the
means Of solar radiation, his process,
described as photography, consisting in
coating O piece of plated silver or
glass with bltumen.
The daguerreotype, which did jus
tice without mercy, was produced
about 1889 by Daguerre and Niepce.
For more than twenty years the
daguerreotype, facetlous descriptions
of which are found In the pages of
Samuel Lever, Dickens, Thackeray
and Reade, held tyrannous sway, w.
III. Fox Talbot in the meantime vain
ly trying to secure recognition for his
calotype process which, by the aid of
paper stepped in nitrate of silver, pro-
duced the negative or invisible picture
now used in all photographs.
To Howe is credited the invention
of the changing box, containing a doz.
en- or more plates with q special form
of dark bath, which can be changed
with one plate at q time from the box
and then inserted in the camera fol

How TImea Have CHANGED.

1t was raining heavily the other day
when one Of the uptown public schools
was dismissed. In front of the school,
waiting for the children, were nurses,
mere parents, chauffeurs and relatives,
and all of them were burdened with
umbrellas, overshoes, raincoats and
wraps. AS the children came out they
were bundled up and hurried away. An
old man with a clay pipe upside down
thrust between his teeth stood watch
ing the picture while the rain splashed
his damp person. Covering 'em up
like plants" he said. "Overshoes, UNI
brellas and the like. Say, when was
a boy thus rain would have been good
for US. We did not have any shoes.
let alone Overshoes, and as for UNI
brellys, why we'd punch the kids eye
that would use one. Oh, WE'LL" he
sighed ohilosOphically "times change"

ring in the heart of a rose. Only the
immediate relatives were present. Fol.

host of well-wishing friends.
They left on the afternoon train for
Watertown, spending Thursday at
Mankato, Mimi, with the brides col
lege roommate, then to Sparta, Wis,
to visit relatives of the bride. Upon
their return they will be at home to
their friends at the residence of the

CONVICTED OF ASSAULT

Andrew Pultz, Steve Mitchell and
Henry Lee were arrested this week
charged with assault. The crime with
which they were charged was alleged
to have been committed Wednesday
night of last week, the story leaking
out a day or two later.
A hearing was held Tuesday and a
change of venue was taken to Justice
Sharp's court, Attorneys w. M.
Cheever and Olaf Eidem appearing
for the defendants and States Attor-
ney Wallace e. Purdy for the prosecu-
ton.
When the case was called at 2
o'clock Wednesday afternoon the de-
Tense asked for separate trials, and be-
fore a jury. Andrew Pultz, a recently
returned member of Company c from
the Mexican border, was placed on
trial, and a jury, consisting of s.. E.
Cornell. II. L. Button, A. b. Chase, e.
II. Burris. e. A. Wing and Sam Lucken,
bill, was ~empannelled.
Two young ladies appeared as wit
nesses for the prosecution and told
the story on which the charge of as
sault was based.
After hearing the evidence the jury
retired and shortly brought in a YER
dict of guilty. The attorneys for the
defense Immediately gave notice of an
appeal to the circuit court.
The cases Of Steve Mitchell and
Henry Lee will be tried Friday fore.
noon at 10 o'clock, and court will be
held at the assembly room of the city
hall where that of Pultz was held.
From what the Register has learned.
there is need of vigorous official ac-
ton in order to stop some of the
escapades young fellows have been
pulling off here. This city should be
so safe that any lady can walk the
streets day or evening without fear of
being insulted and the officials will
carr the most hearty commentator of
all right thinking people if they sue
coed in putting ar end to it.

But let us make war with our whole
heart and with all our strength be-
cause Germany worships one God and
We another and because the lion and
the lamb cannot lie down together.
One or the other must perish.
Let us make war upon Germany Of
the Junkerthum. the Germany of
frightfulness. the Germany of arrog-
ance and selishness. And let us
swear not to make peace until the inn
perial German government is the inn
perial German PEOPLE.

lieve. for that true Gcrman-Amcrican-
ism which has been q splendid part Of
Americanism from the foundation of
the republic. His is the Germans IN
Of Carl Schurz, of Brentano. and Sigel,
a spirit proved in the fire of war, shin
ing forth in our counsels, serving al
ways the ideals of liberty and pro.
gress. 1t is of this spirit and of such
men the Tribune has thought when it
has asserted that German-American
loyalty coull be relied upon. 1t is be-
cause of this spirit and such men that
in the midst of the darkness of war
we may cling to the hope of restored
progress, a more assured peace, a
more genuine amity.
MIR. Kotzenabe's letter is exception
al in indicating an issue upon which all
Americans, whether of colonial, Ger
man. or other ancestry, can whole
heartedly rally. 1t is true tho Ger
man government has shown America
a surly front for a generation and has
more than once seemed ready to
strike. Ard now if we wal against
Germany it will be against the govern.
ment and that temper not against the
German people, to whom we owe SO
much that is strong and fine in our
institutions, our domestic life, and our
ideals"
