Kelly filed suit yesterday against Barclay Henley to recover 6 per cent of 150,000 shares of the Vekal Mining Company, or $1245), in accordance with the terms of an agreement in which the plaintiff, when associated with the firm of Cross, Hall, Ford & Kelly, attorneys at law, agreed to pay the expenses of the litigation over the John D. Walker estate in consideration of defendant’'s agreement as associate counsel with Howard Mac- Sherry, P. B. McCabe and J. B. Wood- | ward, Tepresenting certain heirs of the estate. to pay to the firm named 6 per cent of all monevs and property recovered for the heirs. Plaintiff claims the stock mentioned was recovered, but as yet the agreement has not been fulfilled.

If these pictures could in order and rapidly enough, the impression of one would persist until the next appeared and the rse would be seen running, trotting or cantering natur- ally. Such an instrument, very crude and simple, existed at that time and had been in use for many years as a scientific_toy. It was the zoetrope, the forerunner of the kinetoscope and all' its kin. The Zoetrope. The zoetrope consists of an open cylin- der, usually of cardboard, so mounted that it can be whirled on a vertical axis, time, equidistant vertical slits. ‘The pictures in order showing the successive instanta- neous positions in the motion to be repre- sented are placed ipside the ecylinder, against the lower haif, so that one picture is opposite each slit.’ On whirling the cylinder, therefore, keeping the eve at the row of slits, the pictures follow each other in rapid succession, only cae bein seen at a time. The sensation of m-fi lasts until its image is rcplaced by that of the next, and the impression is that of the action of which the individual pigtures show different stages. - Daly for willful neglect, and Lucinda M.

It would nmever have occurred to any |2nd the pictures in motion. This me- tion is kept up by a motor or by a hand wheel, and the shutter or fan is run by the same mechanism that moves the film. A picture is held against the opening while the lens uncovered, then released as the vane covers the lens. and the next one takes its place. to be shown, in turn, the instant the vane has passed. Practical Uses. The chief use to which moving ple- tures have been applied thus far Is that of entertainment, and unfortunately the subjects which have aroused the most interest have been prize-fights. There are, however, many directions In which his instrument may prove of great value. It is proposed to make use of it in war, and how far such an idea can be carried out we shall perhaps know better after the close of the present war in Africa. There are certain practical difficulties in having a kinetoscope camera at the front always ready for service, even If its use were permitied. The value of a series of instantaneous photographs taken at short intervals in analyzing rapid motion is sufficiently ob- vious. By passing the plctures through the viewing instrument at a reduced speed the motion may be made as slow as we wish and its nature clearly seen. Another application of this prineiple which has recently been proposed is less obvious, It is proposed to take photo- graphs at long intervals of movements which are very slow. Then, passing the serles of, pictures from these negatives through the viewing instrument at the usual speed the slow motion becomes rapid. Suppose, for example, that a pho- tograph is taken every few hours of a ngroutlng seed and growing plant. When shown by the viewing or projecting in- strument the sprout may be seen break- ing through the ground, gaining in height and size, putting forth leaves, buds and branches and_re: its maturity, all in a few minutes. The same method applied to many things other than plants. To this modification of the principle of moving pictures it has been nsidered co m give a new name
