(Special Correspondence)
Sea:t'e, March 30? 'Come to the
Alaska- Yukon- Pacific Exposition In
1909 and b.-lnj; your camera."
That it the Invltition extended by
the management of the 1909 fair to the
people of the country and especially to
thoee devotees of photographic art.
Again the Alaska-Yukon-Paciflc expo
sition Is departing from the policies of
former expositions and doing something
different.
The division of concessions, of which
A. W. Lewis is director, will permit,
under the contract of the official pho
tographer, all kodaks and cameras not |
over the size of 0t by 8} Inches to t>e j
taken on the grounds and visitors will j
be allowed to take all of the pictures
they desire of the buildings, exhibits
and other featur^. There will be only '
, one restriction, however, positively do
tripods will be uied in snappiog views.
The exclusion of cameras over a
specified size at previous exposition*
was done in order to protect the official
photographer, who had paid a large
sum for tho exclusive right to take
phuograpbs on the grounds and who
had to have their concession protected
In order to make his expenses and profit
out of the sale of photographs. Al
though the mmagement realizes that
it cannot secure a9 much money for the
granting of the photographic conces
sion, it reasons that it will be fully
recompensed In avoidance of the
constant row with people bringing
cameras.
The exposition management expects
lu innovation in tho camera rules to
receive hearty commendation.

Londoner Held Prisoner \r Ninety Minutes by an Automatic Boot
cing Machine.
For oue hour and thirty mlnutes^by
the clock a passenger was held pits
oner by an automatic boot cleaning ma
chine at the new Victoria station la'
London. The machine Is worked by a
"penny In the slot" device. Once the
penuy Is dropped and a lever pulled
the foot Is carried forward on a ped
estal right into the upright body of
the machine, and tue brushes operate.
The unfortunate passenger dropped
In his penny, his boot and foot were
carried forward, the brushes commenc
ed to work, and then the harmony of
the working was spoiled; the boot with
the foot would not come out again. It I
was held fast in th.? machiii?. and do
amount of tugging would release It.
An attendant was culled and advised
another penny. ^ This was tried, thenj
another and another until the wealth
gathered In by the Instrument amount
ed to flvepence, but the machine only
gripped the firmer.
\ Presently the gentleman got tired,
and some one held him up while h?
CDc-d his pipe and lit It. Ho didn't get
angry, but took it all very quietly.
"This Hp a nice way or spending your
time." said. When the station In
speetor came ou the scene he docldcd
to smash uV mahlue. He fetched n
heavy coke hammer and a chisel. Bang
went the haiucuer! "Hurry up," said
the gentleman. Then bang again, and
soon the lock wail broken and the front
of the machine opened. It did not take
long to unscrew the top brush, and the
gentleman sto<xl up. stretched himself,
yawned and was a free man again.

HIT HIM IN TWO PLACES.
The Way Cicsro Treated His Devoted
Admirer Petrarch.
lu lUo earl.v lutuniu of 135X Petrarch
differed an accident which may be
nnrraUHl In h's owu words. "You shall
hear." he writes to a friend, "what a
trick Cicero, the man whom 1 have
loved and worshiped from my boyhood,
has just played me. I possess a huge
volume of his letters, which 1 wrote,
out souie time ago with my own baud
because there was no original manu
script accessible to the copyists. Ill
health hindered me, but my great l$>ve
of Cicero and delight In the letters and
eagerness to possess them prevailed
agaiust my bodily .weakness and the
laborlousness of the work. This Is the
book which sou hare seeu leaning
agaiust the doorpost at the entry to
my library. One day while going Into
the room thinking about something
else, as I often do, I happened Inad
vertently to catch the book In the
frluge of my gown. In Its fall It struck
me lightly on the left leg a little above
the heel. 'What! My Cicero,' quoth
I. bantering him. 'pray what are you
hitting me for? He said nothing, but
next day as 1 came again the same
way he hit me again, and again I
laughed at him aud set him ap in ftls
place. Why make a loug story? OVer
aud over again I went on suffering the
same hurt, and, thinking he might be
cross at having to stand on the ground,
I put him up a shelf higher, but not
till after the related blows on the
same spot had broken the skin and a
far from despicable sore had resulted.
I despised it, though, reckoning the
cause of my nccldent of much more
weight than the accident itself. At
last, when the pain was too much not
only for my wit, but for sleep and
rest, so that to neglect the thing any
longer seemed not courage, but mad
ness, I was forced to call In the doc
tors, -who have now for tome dafs
been fusslug over this really ridicu
lous wound, not without great pain
and some danger to the wounded limb,
as they Insist, though I think you know
Just what reliance I place on their
prognostications either of good or evil.
So this is how my beloved Cicero has
treated me. Be long ago struck my
heart, and now he has struck my leg."

trarch."
