THE NEW PHOTOGRAPHY,
According to the Otago Daily Times an experiment in photography by means of the Rontgen rays took place on Wednesday evening at the Duntdin Hospital, in the presence of a number of medical men and others interested. The experiment was conducted by -Messrs Henry and Ewing, on behalf of Messrs Kempthorne, Prosser and Co., who have gained satisfactory results in similar experiments recently made by them. The hands of two subjects were submitted to the cathodographic process — the test being applied in the case of a boy from the Industrial School, one of the subjects, with a view to locating, if possible, the break in a fractured finger — and the plates are in course of development, but it is not anticipated that very satisfactory results will be obtained, as the rays proved to be fitful; and there was in each instance under-exposure of the plates.
