431 Mr. Kirkby asked Mr. Banks if he could give an approximate idea of the cost ef hydrokinone. Mr. Banks replied that Captain Abney had mentioned £1 Is. per ounce as the price of it, but he thought that when a demand for the new developer had arisen, it would soon be cheaper than pyro. The Chairman asked Mr. Banks for particulars as to the use of the packets which he had so generously presented to the members. Mr. Banks said that each packet contained fifteen grains of hydrokinone, and that this was sufficient for from ten to fifteen ounces of developer. To each ounce of solution he recommended the addition of from one to three drops of a saturated solution of common washing soda. Mr. Ellerbeck asked why soda was recommended in prefer ence to ammonia ; and also wished to know if the developer could be used again and again. Mr. Banks said that a possible prejudice on his part in favour of soda had led him to recommend it in preference to ammonia ; but he had found the latter destroy the image on a negative under certain circumstances, and this had never been his expe rience with soda. Hydrokinone might be used repeatedly for purposes of development until the solution became discoloured. The Chairman, on behalf of the meeting, expressed his warmest thanks to Mr. Banks for his excellent paper, and also for his considerate kindness and generosity in presenting to the Association so abundant a supply of the new developer. It would, doubtless, be an experiment of the greatest interest to the members to be able thus to test the value and capabilities of hydrokinone. Mr. Kirkby exhibited some prints of negatives of instan taneous sek subjects taken from the deck of a yacht under full sail, with a strong wind, and in a rough sea. These views had all been taken with Mr. Kirkby’s own shutter, and were extremely good specimens of instantaneous work. Mr. R. CROWE also showed some fine prints of instantaneous pictures taken by him at the Conway excursion, with his own shutter and Edwards’ plates. The Chairman invited the members of the Association to spend the day with him on Saturday, the 21st instant. The Hon. Secretary said that the July meeting of the Association was usually held at the house of one of the members, and therefore he had much pleasure in proposing a cordial acceptance of Mr. Boothroyd’s kind invitation, and that the July meeting be held at his house. Mr. Beer seconded the resolution. Mr. Kirkby objected to the holding of the regular monthly meetings of the Association anywhere but in the room usually employed for these meetings, and therefore proposed, as an amendment, that, while accepting the Chairman’s kind invita tion to Southport, the ordinary July meeting be held on the proper day and in the usual place. Mr. TYERMAN seconded the amendment, and on being put to the meeting it was carried by a majority of votes, and the Hon. Secretary’s resolution was lost. Prints of negatives taken during the Conway excursion were exhibited by Messrs. Tyrer, Boothroyd, Ellerbeck, Crowe, Cork hill, Birtles, and Twigge. Messrs. Palmer and Wharmby showed negatives taken on the occasion, and Mr. James some trans- pariences of Conway subjects. Mr. Forrest exhibited some prints from negatives of the Lake District, and the Platinotype Company showed specimens of their new tone. The meeting was then adjourned. •alk in Studio. A PHOTOGRAPHIC Surprise Party.—At the conclusion of the first annual meeting of the London and Provincial Photographic Association, and as the chairman was vacating his seat, Mr. A. L. Henderson invited all present to sup with him in the adjoining Hall, where the tables were laid for sixty guests. So well had the secrets of the establishment been preserved, that the utmost amazement was depicted on every face. Perhaps it is needless to say that the guests, numbering between thirty and forty, did ample justice to the viands so generously provided ; and soon, above the sounds of opening the “fiz” rose the ac companiment. “ For he’s a jolly good fellow,” &c. The usual toasts having been duly honoured and responded to, some I excellent music, both vocal and instrumental, was rendered by gentlemen among the company, and it was a late hour when the members left this their first annual general meeting. On Saturday, June 16, at a joint meeting of the Essex Field Club and the Geologists’ Association, held at Grays for the purpose of visiting the "Deneholes" in Hangman’s Wood, photographs of the interior of one of the holes were successfully taken by Mr. A. J. Spiller by means of magnesium burning in oxygen. Photographic Copyright—Nottage and Another v. J. H. Jackson.—The plaintiffs in this case carry on business under the name of the London Stereoscopic Company, and the defendant sold photographs and other things at Leeds. The action was founded upon an allegation that the defendant had infringed upon the plaintiffs’ right by selling unauthorised copies of their photographs of the Australian Cricketers of 1882, and of the Earl of Derby. The plaintiffs claimed penalties for the infringement of the statute, and an injunction restraining the defendant from future sales. Mr. Petheram, Q.C., and Mr. Shortt were for the plaintiffs, and Mr. Crump for the defendant. A number of points of law were argued for the defendants, as to whether there had been a proper registration of the photo- g aphs—whether the plaintiffs’ “ place of abode ” had been inserted in the registration, which simply specified their place of business—whether the plaintiffs were the “ authors ” of the photographs so as to be entitledto claim copyright. Mr. Justice Field, in giving judgment, ssid that various objections had been raised on the part of the defendant to the plaintiffs' right to recover. One was that in their registration of copyright they had not inserted their “place of abode ” according to the statute. What they had registered was their business premises in Cheapside and in Regent Street, where they did not live. He had no doubt that this was their “ place of abode,” but it was not necessrry for him to decide that. Another question was whether they were “ authors ” of the photographs, and it had been argued that they were joint authors with those who were engaged in taking the photographs. He could not, however, yield to that contention. Judgment for defendant, with costs. The Balloon Exhibition was closed at the Trocadero on the 24th inst. It was visited by two officers of the British army, sent by the Government to report. Among the notable objects we may mention the original valve used by Gay-Lussac in his ascent, a new valve used by French aeronauts, the car and net of Lhoste as rescued from the North Sea, a panoramic apparatus for photographing a bird’s-eye view of scenery as seen from a balloon at an altitude of 200 metres, several photegraphs taken from the cars of captive or free balloons in Paris, Boston, and Rouen, a refrigerator by Mignon and Bouard for instantly con densing vapour from clouds, bichromate elements constructed by Trouve for Tissandier’s intended aerial experiments.—Nature, A new mode of measuring light was proposed at the last meeting of the Royal Society by Mr. Preece, F.R.S. The standard of reference is a small surface illuminated to a given intensity, and the mode of comparison is the light given by a small glow lamp whose state of incandescence is raised or lowered by increasing or diminishing an electric current. The amount of illumination is measured by the amount of current flowing, so that the number of amperes gives the degree of illumination. The standard surface is that illuminated by a British “ candle ” at 12’7 inches, and this is the same as that produced by the French “bee” at 1 metre distance. In this way sunlight, moonlight, twilight, fog, and the amount of illumination in any part of a room or building, or that distributed over a street or area at any time of day or night, can be measured without any reference to the source of light or its distance from the point lighted. We have, in fact, a standard of illumination very easily and simply measured.—Ibid. An Unruly Sitter.—Photographers, as a rule, are not a nervous body of men, but, like all mortals, they have their feelings. In pursuance of their duties they do not object to photographing the volatile infant, the snub-nosed pug-dog, the family cob, or the old maid’s cat; but they draw the line at an elephant—especially one named Jumbo the Second. Thus it came to pass that when Mr. Cross wished to have an elephant in his zoological department photographed, he experienced no little difficulty in securing an artist to take the picture. Several professionals when appealed to declined to take the picture, but at last a firm was found who were willing to undertake the task. The photographers were duly in attendance, and the elephant, which is always chained up with a heavy anchor-chain, was un- fastened and let out in the yard ; but when he found the camera
