Canea, March 10.-The reply of Greece
to the demands of the powers for the
evacuation of this island by the Greek
troops and the withdrawal of the Greek
fleet from Cretan waters has been act
ed upon promptly, to some extent, by
at least two of the powers. When the
sun arose this morning it was seen that
there were strange vessels at anchor
here and it soon after developed that
they were British and Italian transports
loaded with troops evidently part of the
foreign force which as the admirals re-
commended will occupy all the princi-
pal seaport towns of the island.
The Turks assert that these troops
will be used to drive the Greek forces
out. of Crete, but this belief is not shar-
ed by the foreign population generally.
Owing to the receipt of adviceS saying
that a band of armed volunteers from
Greece were on their way to Crete with
the intention of reinforcing the Cretan
insurgents, the foreign admiraIs agreed
to despatch a cruiser to prevent their
landing.
The Mussulmans who were beseiged
at Candamo have arrived here on board
an Italian warShip.

clockwork which rotates long ribbon OF
extremely sens tive film, and while in ope-
ration opens and closes a shutter in frontiof
the film with rapid motion. The sur
face of the film is adjusted at the exact
focal point OF the huge mirror with such
delicacy as TO produce upon the film an
image no larger than the head OF a pin.
The pictures thus taken may be, after
they are fixed" enlarged by any of the
usual means to any desired size. so that it
is possible and practicable to depict upon
a screen from one of these film-pictures
an exact image of an object on the surface
OF Mars twenty feet square.
BY novel arrangement the rays re-
fected from the great mirror are deprived
of their heat before they enter the camera
by passing through metal cylinder CT
peculiar construction, whereby all heat is
at once transformed into electrical energy,
thus leaving the pure actinic rays alone to
in. pinge upon the Photographic film.
The revelations to be made by the use
of this giant instrument are beyond con-
ception. Questions that have for all time
puzzled the brains of the most profound
thinkers and exhausted the inventive
genius of former inventors to devise the
mechanical means of solution may now
be solved. We may confidently hope to
definitely know whether or not our earth
is the only habited globe. The physical
constitution of our sun and of the planets
and stars will be better understood when
we shall use this last devised instrument
of cyclopean vision. IL is proposed to
erect the instrument upon some elevated
tableland bordering the Pacific Coast, for
the reason that clearer atmosphere may
there be found probably within easy
reach OF the Golden Gate.

tum has been attained. Plans are now
completed for a telescope with photo
graphic attachment, which it is claimed
will accomplish the desired result. To
understand the newly devised telescope
some little knowledge must be had of
light. In our common acquaintanceship
of light we are apt to conceive that light
is simply illumination and then dismiss
the subject from all further consideration.
In fact light Is very complex phenome-
non. 1t is so to speak, bundle of rays,
some OF which are bright and luminous,
and of course visible; others are non
luminous and therefore invisible, but are
just as m uch portion of the whole visible
light as are any, and in fact without them
there would be no light. These invisible
rays. while imperative on the retina of
the human eye, are extremely powerful
in their action upon the Photographic ic
plate. To illustrate: The interior of a
perfectly dark room may be photographed
in every detail without the presence of a
particle of visible light, provided that the
exposure OF the Photographic plate be con-
tinued long enough. The constr uction of
the new telescope is based upon the de-
ductions arrived at from this knowledge.
Telescopes are OF two kinds, the "ref1ect-
ing." which employ large concave re-
fiector from which is reflected the OBJ
served object to a small lense in the eye
piece, and "refracting" telescopes, which
use large glass lense called the "obiect
glass" The first kind give more light
than the latter. The latter give better
definition.
The new telescope will consist of huge
refractor of metal, care fully ground to a
proper curve, and highly polished, and

Wonders Seen
Through a Giant
Eye Of Science

TARE close of the present century bids
FIX fair to substantiate the claims which
G6gS have been pnt forward by many
enthusiasts that il would mark great era
of discoveries in the field of science. So
rapid are announcements now made of new
processes and applications of natural re-
courses, of better understanding of nat
uraI laws and discoveries of natures Sc
crets that astonisbment is almost sup
planted by bewiiderment. All of the dis
coveries and inventions which have bene-
flied mankind are latter-day productions,
and more than one-half of the total have
been made known to the world during the
past twenty-five year.. The marvellous
operations of the telephone are no longer
mysterious, and yet its discovery only
attains its legal majority of twenty
one years this present year. The
transmission OF visual images by electric
energy is an established fact, now being
put into simpler practical shape for gen.
eral use, and the application of the electric
force to purposes of illumination is of
about the same age. a curious feature
connected with the discoveries of the
past quarter OF a century IS the fact that
in nearly all OF them electricity plays
some important part; it is generally one of
the dominant factors in the discovery,
without which the new affair could not
exist.
Next to electricity light forms one of the
prominent constituents of the new dis
coveries. Whether in it's application to
illumination or photography greater
strides toward the perfect knowledge has
been made with light and its manifesto
tions than with any other save electricity.
And yet, with the possession of all that
