NJ. J. B. Humbry of New Hope, Va,
graduate of the Staunton institute for
the blind, was born blind, but has been
given sight by a successful operation
performed by Baltimore surgeon. The
Baltimore Gazette says he can now read
small type by sight. while formerly he
could read only by passing his fingers
over raised letters. His delight upon
seeing his aged mother for the first
time was naturally very great.

a PeIpleEed Delegation


The Los Angeles delega ton are
in sad quandary. Mr.. Crank in
troduced u bill in the Assembly to
create the county of Orange. This
the Judiciary Committee declared
to be unconstitutional, and it was
withdrawn. Then he and Senator
West brought forward general bills
for the formation of counties.
These measures the Senate Jndici.
airy Committee has decided to be
in conf ct with the fundamental
law. The question which now agi-
tates the minds Of the Angeltn os is
if both special aud general bills are
unconstitutional, what kind of u
measure can be brought in which
will stand the test? They are
placed between the two fires Of the
judiciary Committee. II lawyers
thus disagree, what are laymen to
do? This 10 an enigma which the
Senator and the Assembly man
thus far fad it impossible to
explain.
