They bring back the deafening roar of cannon and the hail of bullets. Matthew Brady, camera genius, followed armies and navies of both sides and took thousands of superb pictures. He died in poverty and the precious negatives have been lost for 50 years. Now they have been found again, and others, too—unsuspected by old-timers who knew Brady—and the whole 3800, all together, at a cost of hundreds of thousands of dollars, are now ready in the Photographic History of the Civil War.

Broadway, opposite the Stewart Store, a two-story building to which sightseers came as today they come to gaze at the Metropolitan Tower. Here, before the cam- era of Brady—the artist-photographer—sat Lincoln and Greeley, Jenny Lind and the Prince of Wales. Here you had your own picture taken, if you could spare $100. When the war broke out, Brady gave up everything-—the easy life -—the big money-making—and went to the front—armed not with a gun but with a camera. With special permis- sion from Lincoln, he and his trained assistants were with biel heap ee and navies Liptay the four years of the war, risking cured—each Sree living, vivid witness of the Civil ° These passed into the hands of the United States Government, which, harassed by debt and difficulties, finally paid Brady $25,000. And that was all Brady ever got for his genius, his daring“and his sacrifice in securing this almost priceless record of the Civil War. Brady never recovered either his health or his money. He died in the almsward of a New York hospital. The Photographs Lost UT, fortunately for us today, Brady made another set of negatives, which went to his creditors to make up for the $100,000 expended by him in his gigantic task. That set—forgotten in the turbulence of recon struction—was knocked from pillar to post for many years. Twenty-five years it lay in an old garret. Found Again T last these undying witnesses of the great tragedy were discovered, and in 1911, 50 years after the opening gun at Sumter, are now restored to the nation in the Photographic History of the Civil War published by the Review of Reviews. The publishers, passing from incredulous amazement to something like awe at their dis- covery, kifew that here lay the opportunity for the most important work ever brought out on the American continent. The Review of Reviews has now spent a fortune on the project. The sympathy and help of State and national departments and of famous men has been enlisted, the enthusiasm of veterans has been aroused.
