The picture is taken at the end of the Prado, Havana's famous boulevard. The troops are turning iu from a side street, where stands a triumphal arch erected by the Cubans, but which Gen. Brooks, the Military Governor of Cuba, would not permit to be finished, as he allowed no demonstrations of any kind. The soldiers are the First Texas trorps. The streets are crowded with people. Many typical Cubans are seen lounging in the foreground, with here and there a Spaniard, if one may judge by sour looks and solemn demeanor. The buildings are all low stone structures, with heavy barred windows, from which are displayed small Cuban flags. An excellent picture of life in Havana, New Year Day, 1899. GENERAL LEE'S PROCESSION, HAVANA. A magnificent view of the Prado, from the balcony of the United States Club. The procession is headed by a troop of horsemen. Prominent among them is General Lee. Then come the soldiers, file after file and company after company; filling the broad avenue from curb to curb anil as far as the eye can reach with marching men. It is the Seventh Army Corps. Great crowds of people fill the sidewalks: and through the trees that line the promenade in the middleof the Prado, are seen carriages and vehicles following the parade. Tneerowning event of the Spanish-American war 1 The great procession on Evacuation Day. RAISING OLD GLORY OVER MORRO CASTLE. Down goes the Spanish flag, and up floats the Stars and Stripes. Downfalls thesyrabolof tyranny and oppression that has ruled in the new world for four hundred years, and up goes the Banner of Freedom. In the distance are the turrets and battlements of Morro, the last foothold of Spain in America. SPANIARDS EVACUATING. In the background of this picture are the grim walls of Morro. Down the steep hill come the Spaniards, horsemen, soldiers and mules. As the procession zig-zags in and out on the narrow trail, it presents a very picturesque scene. The men look dogged and dejected. The mules carry all kinds of supplies; personal baggage, camp utensils, cannon, ammunition, cannon wheels, and all the paraphernalia of an army. DEFENDING THE COLORS. The enemy have taken the fort. In one corner, with their last cannon, stand a handful of soldiers, guarding the flag to the last. They fire their cannon. An answering volley kills several; the rest are overcome in a hand to hand conflict. SAILORS LANDING UNDER FIRE. A long boat dashes up to the shore, oars up. Out jump the men, a score or more, knee deep into the water. They line up and fire volley after volley advancing meanwhile up the beach. ASTOR BATTERY ON PARADE. As they appeared in New York on Saturday, January 21, 18 )9, on their return from active service in the Philippines. The picture is taken as they cross Broadway, Union Square, north. First come the mounted police, proud and prancing, then the band, then the famous Astor Battery, marching twenty-four abreast. Asthesecond file approaches, the order is given to "change arms" and the rifles shift from right to left shoulder. The men march well, with rapid gait, and present a fine spectacle, dressed in their long dark overcoats. A group of ladies on a balccny wave their handkerchiefs, and the crowds that line the sidewalksshow theirenthusiasm. As the Battery passes out of sight, men and boys run across the stieet, and a hansom cab brings up the rear. Tl:e picture was taken late in the afternoon, and the exposures were slow; consequently the film must be reproduced slowly to give the best results. DANCING ON THE BOWERY. A familiar scene on the East Side. An Italian is grinding away on a piano organ and the dance music is greatly appreciated by the children who haveirathered around. Two little girls, (one a coon-let,) go through a series of fancy steps that would make a vaudeville performer envious. A crowd of men and boysstand around watching. A very clever picture. A DARKTOWN DANCE. A genuine New Orleans breakdown. Full of fun and grotesque action. A dozen coons are participating; and if an audience can get only half the enjoyment out of it that the dancers do, this picture will be a winner. THE DOLORITA PASSION DANCE. Musicians are seated, playing, while the graceful Dolorita dances. It is the Dause-duVentre, the famous Oriental muscle dance. LITTLE EGYPT IN COOCHEE COOCHEE DANCE. A vision of gauze, lace and spangles, performing the famous danse-du-ventre. in a manner which must be seen to be fully appreciated. ORIENTAL DANCE. This performer executes a modified couchee-couchee dance that has been spoken of by the press as "refined, chaste and elegant." It is a fitting description. FATIMA'S COUCHEE-COUCHEE DANCE. Thisisthelady whose graceful interpretation of the poetry of motion has made this dance so popular of recent years. AFTER THE STORM. In the foreground is the wreck of a pier, with the spiles broken and jagged. Far out toward the horizon is the angry sea, an unbroken expanse of surging billows. The surf runs high. Wave afier wave rolls in grandly, flecked with floating foam. As each wave crest breaks over the pier it dashes high into the air, spouting through the spiles in a cofuscating cascade of shining silvery spray. It is a marvelous display of sunshine and wave effects. A Dream Miss Mann All 1 Want 's .via chickens Frank C.
