LECTURE ON LATIN AMERICA

Dr. Manoel de Oliveira Lima, Minister Plenipotentiary of Brazil to Belgium, will lecture in Emerson D this evening at 8 o'clock on "The Independence of Latin America, and its Evolution in the Nineteenth Century." The lecture, which will be open to the public, will be delivered in English, and affords an unusual opportunity to hear a gifted speaker, well known in literary as well as in diplomatic circles, discuss a topic of steadily increasing interest and importance.

Dr. Lima is just finishing a tour of the United States, one object of which is to obtain an intimate view of the character of our leading American universities, with the purpose of presenting this view in book from to the people of Brazil.
