The stock market was little more active to
day, especially In the first and last hours, but
between those hours the dullness wak equal to
anything seen of late. The bears seemed to
have exhausted themselves in a sharp drive at
Atchison at the opening, causing ad c'ine of %
per cent., and after tli.it time the urn ket
showed strength in ad its depth, though except
in a few of the leading specialties the move
raepts were ou the same limited scale as during
the past week. It was n ficed Unit the bud
leaders gave more support to tht-ir favorites
than yesterday, but there was also some buying
for foreigners and n better attendance upon the
street indicated that more interest was taken in
the market. The features of the day, however,
were C., C., C. and 8 1 . Louis common and
• ■ abash preferred, tho former making a rapid
rise of 2 per cant. Atchison soon regained ail
of its early loss, advancing 1 per cent., and, like
the remainder of the list, closed finally at its
highest point. In tie last hour Walla's i pre
ferred lei the upward movement, and more
animation was shown all over the list. Trie
clone was dull but firm to strong arid at the
best prices of the day. Sales of st cks reached
165,000 shares. The following were tae closing

Louisiana Rica.
New Orleaxs, Aug. 13.—According to the
Planter, th • rice cr. p of Louisiana is now in a
very precarious position. The long drought nas
retarded the maturity some three or four week s,
and now about all the spring-planted rice will
mature at once, and mature in the season of
storms; so no mat tor what the prospect may be
to day, to-morrow or a few days later may
thr w doe u the whole crop, as was done last
year, and as is now more probable, becaus*
of t he later dates of ripening.

YOUR PICTURE FROM A SLOT.
It’s a Loncf Strido From Chewing Gum
and Chocolate to Photography.
Fro'n Chicago Tribune.
“Drop a quarter in the slot and hava
your photograph taken.”
A s iiitli side photographer was standing
by a haudsorno cabinet, similar ip appear
ance to tuo automatic weighing machines
which confront one everywhere.
"A qunyter! Why not a nickel?”
“A nickel will do in three or four months
when tiie novelty wears off. Bat until the
automatic photographist is succeeded by*
machine which will turn you out u house
and lot n quarter only will work it. it is
the latest thing out.”
The reporter squared himself before a
small closed opening in the cabinet opposite
lus face. He dropped a quarter in a slot
lower down. Instantly 11 little met il door
unclosed tlio opening, exposing tlio eye of a
camera. Thera was allis 1 of light, the
opening closed, and in a couple of minutes
a photograph of himself foil on tlio salver
b**foro too reporter.
“Mow did you strike such an idea?”
“A board if trade man suggested it,” said
he "lie said there was big money iti it.
Eleven weeks ago j slatted at it, and horn
it is, patented with a corporation behind it
—all ready to tike ia the quarters. And
it will take them in, for it is the only in
vention of tiie sort tha' appeals directly to
the vanity of the public.”
W hile apparently complicated, the me
chanism of the machine turned out to tie
■dmpla. It is run by an ordinary coll bat
tery, tho quarter completing tue current.
An instantane us camera is supplied with
the necessary light liy a flash of magne
sium and chloride 01 potash, dropped for
each photograph on a pan above tiio open
ing and ignited by the heat of platinum
wire. Too photograph is taken on a cellu
loid sheet about the sizi of a tintype. A
set of rollers and a preparation of collodion
in emulsion develop* ( and drlod tho impres
sion. The likeness issMes much better fin
ished than the ordinary tintype.
"The machines cost nbo it $59,” said the
photographer. “The expense of operating
them is next to nothing. We will soon have
them in every hotel, drug store, and sa
loon.
“Are you going to utilize tho invention
for *ny other purpo o than amusement?”
“Yes; for two serious purposes [have a
machine imasr construction which is to
have the nppo'inince of ncl ick, aid be
placed at the railings ot cashiera and tollors
in banks."
“Whut for?”
“To enable them to take a photograph of
nnv one who cashes a check iu case they
should want to identify him afterwa and.
While the man is before the railing the
cashier or teller will press an electric but
ton and tho man’s photograph will be taken
1:1 a tenth of >1 second, U 0 will see nothing
but a sight flash, and couldn't get away if
ho tried baforo the instrument lias indelibly
recorded his features,"
“And the other purposef’
"A similar machine will he mads for use
in tho police stations. The p lotographs of
suspects and criminals may be obtained
without their knowledge and the consequmt
distortion of features which characterises
so many 01 tho forced photographs in the
Uogues’Gnlleirv.”
