M. Georges Koister, the art editor of the Paris newspaper, '• Lo Matin,” who is on a visit to London, expressed a desire to know exactly how quickly the “Daily Mail” conkltake a photograph and make a block of it for reproduction. The length of time mention by tho arc editor seemed almost incredible to M. Koister, and there was a sporting interest iu the performance which followed. M. Koister and a friend were photographed on the Embankment at 240 in the afternoon. At 2.5-1 a proof of the photograph was handed to them, and at 3.14 the block from which the newspaper reproductions arc made was finished. Tho complete process thus took 34min, and M. Koister described tho performance as a record.
