the camera, for without it the Cubans
would never have known how strong the

II is a strange thing that an army should
take itself. and a great deal stranger that
il should do so without being aware of it.
Had the Spaniards known that they were
sending accurate photographs of them
selves to their enemy. they would undoubt-

on their journey.
When the news of Lieut.. Fouree's great
success with the camera reached here, in
stantly the Cuban enthusiasm set to work
TO provide a great many of them for the
use Of their friends in the South. They fit
ted up box after box of them, provided
with the seusitized cord and the automatic
attachment for taking pictures.
These are now in Cuba or on their way
there and the pictures you see of Spanish
cavalry were taken" by themselves.
