work in certain lines to join with the
MicroScopical society in effecting the
organization of an Academy of Sci
ences, to which these separate societies
would be appendages. The matter re-
celved favorable comment by the mem
bers present, but was left over for fur
Their consideration until next month.
The principal feature of the pro-
gramme was an address on the Optics
of the Microscope" by Mr.. c. K. Ed
munds. He said in part:
a normal eye can see distinctly OBJ
JectS at a considerable distance. AS
the object is brought nearer to the eye,
the lens thickens and the image is still
focused on the retina, the size of the
image increases and detail in the OBJ
ject, previously unnoticed, becomes Wis
ible. This continues until the limit Of
accommodation is reached; if the OBJ
ject be brought still nearer. the lens
can no longer focus it, and the image
becomes blurred. The least distance
from the eye at which distinct vision
can be obtained is known as the least
distance of distinct vision.
| The apparent size of an object de-
ponds on the angle which it subtends
at the eye; the nearer the object is to
the eye, the greater the angle, and so
the greater the apparent size. But a
limit is imposed on this method by the
existence of this least distance of dis
tinct vision. Limit removed by such
simple devices as a card with pinhole;
simple microscope, double convex lens.
When an object is viewed through a
magnifying glass; held close to the eye,
the image and the object subtend
practically equal angles at the eye; if
1T We're possible to see the object in its
actual position without the glass, it
would appear of the same size as when
viewed through the glass, but at this
small distance it cannot be seen clear
ly; 1T is within the least distance of
distinct vision.
The effect of the glass, practically, is
to remove it to beyond that distance
and at the same time to retain undi-
minished the angle which it subtends
at the eye-or, what is che same, the
actual size of the image formed on the
retina.
Thus, in determining the magnifying
power Of a microscope, we must COM
pare the angle the object would sub
tend at the eye if it were at the least
distance with that which the image
seen subtends
Mr. Edmunds spoke on refraction in
general; action of simple convex lens
on light; spherical and chromatic alb
beration and means adopted for remov-
ing same. The speaker illustrated his
lecture with blackboard drawings. and
demonstrated the principles with ex-
per1ments on optical apparatus dis
played before the society. =
The meeting adjourned for one
month.

Arroyo and Guayama

The capture of seacoast towns
without the aid of the land forces
is becoming a favorite pastime
with the navy. In adding Quay
anna Bay to our possessions, with
the towns of Arroyo and Quay
anna, the st. Louis, Gloucester and
Wasp, under Capt. Goodrich, lave
Igiven lis a new landing place on
the south coast, about forty miles
east of Ponce, and of course al
most that distance bearer San
Juan.
Guayama, indeed, is nearly due
south of the capital, and a cart
Iroad connects it with Cayey,
where it comes upon the macad-
amized road. In a military point
of view the advantage of sending q
force to Cayey by way of Quay
anna would be that it would flank
the Spanish position at Aibonlto,
which is understood to be fortl,
fed. Of course, the difficulties OF
marching on the dirt road from
Guayama are greater, but Capt
.lGoodr1ch found that the small gar
rison had retreated to Cayey, 81
that little opposition on the way
need be feared. The military roat
from Ponce after passing Coamo
which we now hold, reaches Al
tbonito, and thence winds through
| the hills easterly ten miles t
llCayey, SO that seizure of the latte
! polnt by us would at once imperi
the Spanish position at Aibonito
We should then, also, have a sec
8 ond and shorter line of suppl,
from the coast.
But whether any military US
lis or is not made of the new bas
at Guayama Bay, it adds on
y more to our list of conquests i
Porso Rico, and with other SUI
olrenders makes the whole sout
atcoast ours.

Cuban Bonds

The bonds which Spain has is,
sued and sold on account Of Cuba
may be one of the knotty guess
lions that will arise in the peace
negotiation. The island of Cuba
has been pledged as security for
loans amounting to more than
$500, 900, 900. Most of these
bonds are held in France, which
accounts to some extent for the
strong French sympathy for Spain
in this war.
The question is as to how far, If
at all, we may become liable for
this debt. Some authorities de-
clare that if we should annex Cuba
we would become directly respons
sible for the bonds issued upon
that island.
Ii is also commended thatif Cuba
is made free as a result of our for
chile intervention there would be
a claim upon us for these bonds.
It is being freely predicted that
France may inquire very soon as
to our intentions concerning this
debt.
Spain is a very poor debtor.
She paid the interest on her Cubar
bonds in gold up to the time thu
war began, but very soon there
after began to pay in Deprecated
silver pesetas. The owners of tn
Cuban bonds have small chance tt
get their money back if they hav'
to rely on Spain, and they ar
naturally anxious to have the I'm
| tied States assume the debt.
There is a wide difference o
opinion as to both the legal am
moral obligation we will incur il
reference to these bonds whel
Cuba either becomes Independent
or a part Of the United States
The matter will undoubtedly com
up in some form or othe
when the terms of peace are cor
sidered.
