570 THE PHOTOGRAPHIC NEWS. [September 7, 1883. Specifications Published during the Week. 6,034. Srvanus Phillips Thompson, of University College’ Bristol, Professor of Experimental Physics, and Colman Charles Starling, Demonstrator in the said University Col lege, “ Improvements in photometric apparatus.”—Dated 18th December, 1882. This invention, which relates to improvements in photometric apparatus, consists in the employment of interchangeable opaque screens in ascertaining or comparing the intensity of lights. These screens are formed of two members, either plain or coloured, and attached to one another at any desired angle, the double screens thus formed resembling wedges, having the ends epposite the apix open to admit of their being placed on a sup port, either fixed to or adjustable upon the horizontal bar of the photometer. 198. Charles James Appleton, of Lower Broughton, Salford, and David Appleton, of Sackville Street, in the city of Manchester, both in the county of Lancaster, “ Improvements in etching on rollers.”—Dated 12th January, 1883. The patentees appear to claim the etching of rollers by the ordinary process of galvanic etching, in which the material to be etched forms the anode in a decomposing cell. Patents Granted in France. 152,983. Barrault, of Nemours, for “A photographic appa ratus for employing gelatino-bromide and other dry sensitive glasses in full light.”—Dated6th January, 1883. —Class 17. 152,986. Thiebaut, of Paris, for “ Obtaining pellicular paper of gelatino-bromide of silver for obtaining photographic nega tives.”—Dated 8th January, 1883.—Class 17. Patents Granted in America. 282,756. Marion W. Newcomb, of Marysville, Kans., for " A photographic plate-holder.”—Application filed 13th March, 1883.—No model. This apparatus is an adjustable inner-frame with sliding rebates. 282,939. Paris H. Wheeler, of Washington, D.C., for " A machine for packing dry plates for photographers.”—Applica tion filed 2nd July, 1883.—No model. An apparatus very nearly resembling one which Mr. Harrison has exhibited. The following ai e the claims :— 1. The method of preparing dry plates, the same consisting in interposing between them a series of cords, strings, or other pliable materials in a continuous length, so as to prevent injury to the sensitive surfaces. 2. The combination of a base-board having guides at each side, with a continuous strip of flexible material. 3. The combination with a movable bar, or of laterally ad justable carriers adapted to arrange the apparatus for carrying different sized plates. 283,589. Mathias Flammang, “A camera.” The special feature is a shifting back with multiple motions. 283,455. Anthony.—Plate-case, a box with double lid. THE RETURN JOURNEY OF THE ECLIPSE EXPEDITION. by c. ray woods. OnCe more on board the Hartford. We have risen from our couches, and we walk about on deck. We do not sit down ; oh, dear no! We are too sore from our ride to and from Kilauea, and never was a swinging cot more welcome than after our famous (I beg pardon, I mean infamous) journey to see the volcano. And now, the morning after, we are in a great state of commotion. The officers and men have all got on their Sunday clothes; the astrono mers have not, but are skulking about doing nothing, in their old familiar fashion. The band is on deck facing the starboard gangway, and the signal guns are being got ready. What does it all mean ? A boat puts off from the shore, reaches the side of the vessel, and up steps His Majesty King Kalakaua, ruler of the Hawaii, the famous seven islands. The men have manned the yards, the colours are run up, the band strikes up the Hawaiin National Air (a bad crib from “ God save the Queen ”) as the king steps on board, and twenty-one times the guns are fired. I have a splitting headache, and 1 wish the king was at the place the volcano reminded me of. Although I do not quite sympathise with the republican American seaman who muttered, “ All this fuss fora cussed nigger,” I think, even now, that it was too much, although the Articles of War set it down as correct on such occasions. Then, behind the king, come some of the ladies of his suite. Let me go below and put my head in the refrigerator, for thoughts of “ the time when first we met ” still rankle in my breast, and, displaying themselves in my features, make me look foolish. We had been on a photographic excursion to Rainbow Falls, near Hilo, and we came across three of these “ king’s relations.” I photographed them, and showed them, one by one, the picture on the ground glass, myself and my four brothers of the camera making silly and personal remarks about them all the time. Sand wich Island beauties can fully appreciate a joke, and, pretending they could not speak English, they stored our “ funny ” sayings in their minds. Do not ask me to tell you any of them, for when we were thrown into their company the same evening, after an introduction from the king, they repeated to us often enough all they remembered, and laughed at' us heartily. We shall be more careful next time, and we warn readers of the News to be on their best behaviour when travelling. When I summoned up courage to face them on board, they asked me to develop this plate, which I did, and gave them some prints. 1 sincerely wish that I had deve loped the rest of the plates at the same time. They were, if anything, over-exposed, but on getting them home I was only able to get thin spotty negatives from them, thanks to the salt air. At Honolulu, two days from Hilo, we had to say good bye to the Hartford and to our friends on board her. And here I must tender my hearty thanks to them all, from Captain Carpenter downwards, for their friendship, their kindness, their attention, and their help. Both Mr. Law rance and myself were very sorry to leave them, and we cannot acknowledge too well how much of the success of the expedition, and how much of our own happiness, was due to them. We may never see any of them again, but may they carry with them as pleasant thoughts of our society as we do of theirs. I exposed about a dozen plates in Honolulu, the principal photographer there, Mr. Williams, kindly per mitting me to change my plates in his dark-room. Not only this, but at some trouble to himself he coaxed two noted eccentric native characters into his studio for me to photograph. The light of his developing room, however, was too much for my plates, and fogged them. His light was redder than is required for wet plates, which he usually uses, but it was not sufficiently non-actinic for my own, the atmosphere there being very clear. On developing my plates on my return, I found them all worthless. Those that retained some faint semblance of an image I have kept. I did not, as most of your readers would have done, wash the rest off ; I smashed them with a hammer. There is some satisfaction in that. The vessel that carried us to San Francisco was the Zealandia ; but, the weather being a little rough, nothing was done. To show you that passengers know how to enjoy themselves, 1 may mention that they had been hav ing concerts, entertainments, and dances all the way from Australia, and having Messrs. Studd and Vernon, the cricketers, on board, even played that game on the upper deck, the ball being tied to a cold. We reached San Francisco on the 11th of June. Here, too many things required our attention to leave us time for any photo graphic work, though there was one scene I should especially have liked to have got. In a wide, busy street, was a church which had been cut in half. One half was still standing, and the other was in the middle of the road, being moved to a more eligible site. They would not have cut the church in two at all if it had not been too big, but not too heavy, to get through the streets at once. The city is interesting chiefly on account of its extremely
