It was caused by general dissatisfac-! lion over the elections of last March and by the opposition of the defeated to the elected officers. President Pessoa, who had been made presi­ dent in these elections, finally took m atters into his own hands and or­ dered the a rre st tw enty-four hours of Field Marshal Hermes da bonsela. The field m arshal had, a few days before, sent a cablegram to the m ilitary comm ander in P e r­ nambuco, who had been sent to this place to keep order among the elec­ tion rioters, and his act in taking this authority upon himself was in te r­ preted by the president as an act of insubordination. repri­ manded for his insubordination, and the M ilitary club, of which Marshal Fonseca is president, was ordered to be closed for six months. This act ny the president created quite a bit of excitem ent, and the feeling was intensified when, on July 4, the Mar­ shal tore up the orders and refused to obey them. He was R eb ellio n by F o n s e c a M atters were brought to a head when Captain Fonseca, son of the M arshal, who commanded the strong­ est fo rt around Rio de Janeiro, de­ manded th a t the w ar departm ent r e ­ lease his fath er from prison. The departm ent released the Marshal, out on Ju ly 5 sent orders to Captain Fonseca which relieved him of com­ mand of the fort. Captain P'onseca refused to withdraw, and placed himself in open rebellion by disobey­ ing his orders and defying the prest-* dent. All preparations fo r hostilities were immediately made by the gov­ ernm ent, and early on the morning of July 6, a bom bardm ent of the fo rt was begun, which continued in ter­ m ittently until afternoon, when ac­ tivities were ceased for a conference between the rebels and governm ent accom­ officials. The conference plished nothing; so about 4:00 in the afternoon the rebels from the fo rt marched out against the governm ent arm y and were bayonetted and shot to a man. Thus ended the latest revolution of Brazil. Party From T exas Sees P assion P lay A t O beram m ergau Messages to Austin friends from I the party of Texas travelers which includes Mrs. Frank Litten, Mrs. Man ley T urner and daughter, Mrs. Nella T. Evans and Miss Tommie Wooten, say th at they have been accorded a unique experience. During th eir stay in Oberamm ergau they were lodged in the home of the man who played St. John and boarded with the family of Anton Lung, fam ous the world over as “ The C hrist” in the Passion Play. The Passion Play is a representa­ tion of the last few weeks of the life of C hrist; the last supper, his be­ trayal, the trial, and crucifixion. It is played every ten years, being re-' peated many tim es over during one sum m er vow in fulfillm ent of which the villagers made hundreds of years ago. They were saved apparently an impending calam ity, by miraculous means, a fte r binding themselves by an oath to perform this passion play eve^y ten years for­ ever. The passion play has made the name of the little village kn tnrougnout the world, and draw s im­ mense crowds to the place. a The Texas p a rty expects to re tu rn to Austin about the middle of Sep­ tem ber.

ON FIRE PREVENTION IO SMAIL AUDIENCE E d u c a tio n Is G r e a t F a c t o r in C o n tr o llin g a n d P r e v e n t i n g F ir e Loss Speaking on the fire loss in Amer­ ica during the past few years, Mr. T. A. flem ing of New York, supervisor of the Conservation D epartm ent of the National Board of Fire Under­ writers, pointed out the needs of fire-fighting America for efficient apparatus and for adequate fire-pre­ ventive measures. Training in the value of cleanli­ ness as a means o f avoiding fires should be one of the first lessons taught children, for the child is the teacher of the family and on him depends the fu tu re of the nation. Best from children trained in the public schools., as th ru their influence, the educators o f our country are able to touch the sensi­ bilities of older people. results come Gax is paid on Eire losses in the United S tates in ex­ 1921 were over $505,000,000, ceeding the total cost of education by $80,000,000. Insurance rates in­ clude all losses paid by the company, as well as the cost of upkeep. A purchase cost ot all articles. When property is destroyed by fire the whole com­ munity su ffers a loss because th a t property is then removed from tax list arid and am ount of tax is distri­ the buted over the rem ainder of property in the city. the Ninety two per cent of fires could be prevented if people would exer­ cise caution. Essential to safety are fire extinguishers, properly labeled, and everyone should be instructed in the use of them.
