Spain Sent Convicts to Porto Hilo
The Porto Ricans retain Spanish traits yet remain largely irresponsible after 20 years of Anglo-Saxon influence. Slavery ended 50 years after abolition of altered ages, with eight million dollars in indemnities paid. Convicts from Spain’s penal use in Porto Rico were freed when public works declined, leading many to flee to the mountains and a land of petty thievery.

Difficult to Signal Mars Says Professor
Henry Meier of Centre College outlined hurdles in contacting Mars at a Kentucky Academy of Science meeting. He noted low Martian temperatures and thin atmosphere hinder life signals, ruled out light signaling due to 40 percent atmospheric absorption, and warned a 500x telescope view would render a 19 mile square Earth light as only an inch square from Mars. He computed a million ampere sending current needed for a single ampere at Mars and warned solar dielectric interference would overwhelm Earth's weak transmissions.
