SURRENDER OF MUTINEERs.
Advices Received by the Brazilian Am
bassador

Ambassador Nabuco of Brazil has receiv-
ed dispatches from the Brazilian foreign
office regarding the mutiny in the Santa
Cruz fortress at Rio, reported in Thurs
days Star and announces that the affair
resulted In the killing of Major Digno
Frei-e and the wounding of a second lieu
tenant. The ambassadors advices say that
the mutlny was one of non-commissioned
men against their superior officers and tha
after a short bombardment from the op-
posite fort of Sac Joao, in the harbor, and
an attack by a brigade of infantry from
the inland, the mutineers surrendered.
Major A. V. de Pederneiras. the military
attache of the embassy here, was several
years ago commander of the post at Santa
Cruz and he expressed the opinion that
the mutiny probably grew out OF punish
ment for some breach of discipline. Maj.
Pederneiras says that the Santa Cruz fort
ress is an artillery post manned by regi-
ment from that branch of the service, that
1t Is heavily fortified by node rn guns and
Is one of five forts at the entrance to the
harbor of Rio.

street between First and Third streets

important facts concerning light. and was
Illustrated by number of experiments ana
by many lantern slides.
After sketching briefly the two principal
theories of light which have been held by
scientists, the speaker stated and Illus
trated the important laws of reflection
refraction and dispersion. The phenomena
of reflection from plane and curved mir
rors and of refraction In lenses and prlSmS
were shown experimentaliy. and the theoFy
explained by many diagram slides. -That
white light consists of lights OF many col
ors was shown both by breaking up a
beam into the colors OF the spectrum ana
by combining the separate co!ors to form
white. The structure of the eye and the
formation of the image In the eye were
described and the causes of the most COM
mon defects of the eye were stated and
Illustrated. discussion of the theories OF
color sensation was supplemented by a
number of experiments in which the audi
ence took part, in which tests were made
for after-images when lights of different
colors were looked at ntently.
Tho lecture concluded with number OF
slides illustrating the inaccuracy of judg-
ment of form and length under certain con-
ditions.
