Our photographer was very fortunate in getting one of these camps by the side of a Hungarian highway, and his work was so successful that one could hardly get a better insight into the life of these strange people if he were to spend months traveling in their own country. The naked children are rolling about on the grass with the dogs, the women are smoking pipes and cooking the evening meal over an out-door fire. The mother is telling fortunes for a stranger, and the whole scene is one of animation. Photographically the view is almost perfect."

Figures are very large, and photography perfect."

While he is at work a ten-inch gun is swung in such a position as to throw him from his perch into the sea. It is evident in an instant that he is unable to swim. Life-buoys are thrown in to the water, and several seamen dive from the deck of the vessel. A life boat is quickly lowered from the davits, and the man is rescued. In the background of the picture appear two of the most formidable battleships of the British navy. The negative is very fine photographically."
