fine fit the roost rcrnsrkshle pho-
tograph* ever obtained was that of
til** actual exploding of the bomh
which was thrown at the king and
queen of Mpuni on the occasion of
their wedding.
It waa secured by an operator for
one of the largest firms of press
photographers am), according to the
London Strum] Magazine, proved a
veritable gold mine, appearing in
dose on 3.00») publications.
The photograph was secured
more or lea* by a piece of good luck.
The operator waa on a »tarn! with
lua camera ill I he place allotted to
him by the police, waiting for the
procession to sp|M'sr. The camera
ws* placed facing down the street
up which the procession was to
come.
From the moment it came in
sight until the royal carriage was
within nhout thirty yards of him
the operator secured three pictures.
He then readjusted the camera so
as to get « good picture of the king
and queen in their csrnage, which
was shout ten yurda from him.
At the instant that the operator
pressed the hall and exposed a plate
a dark object waa hurled at the
royal carriage from a balcony win
dow, slid then followed instantly a
blinding flash and a noise like a
thunderclap. The operator was
hurled half stunned to the ground,
his camera following him. When
he was able to stand he saw a ter
rible scene I k - low him. The large
crowd was stampeding in all direc
tions.
Anv one luckless enough to fall
in that storm of rushing humanity
waa instantly trampled to death,
and several did fall. Some thirty
people in all were killed on that oc
casion, of whom at least half were
simply crushed or trampled to
death in the panic that followed the
explosion. It is very remarkable
that all the plates in the operator's
camera were broken with the excep
tion of the last one he had exposed,
which depicted the actual scene at
the moment of the explosion.
