Progress in South CarOliana.
". Perry in the Philadelphia Telegraph ]

Ex-Gov. Perry in the Philadelphia Telegraph
In pleasant chat, this morning, at the residence
of his son, ex-Gov. Perry said that, though born
in South Carolina, his father was native Of Massa-
chusetts, who, with uncle in 1885 immigrated to
the South The outlook of South Carolina he repre-
sents as more encouraging since the commonwealth
has become rid of Moses and the rest Of whom he
termed the worthless fellows who ran the State in
their interest, TO the disadvantage of the people
The money raised by taxation he stated actu-
ally stolen, and during the administration Of Moses
no improvements made, and not school house
built In fact the money raised for school purposes
reached the proper hands, and the consequence
was that the teachers not paid and the schools
were closed the greater part of the year Since the
State has passed out Of the hands Of the parties who
disgraced it, the State has been steadily paying of
its Indebtedness the schools opened the greater
part of the year, structures are being erected,
and railroads all over the State being built In
agriculture and manufactures, South Carolina is also
making long strides forward. Political troubles have
passed away, and with them class distinctions,
that elections are now being held with as much quiet
and protection as in Pennsylvania.

The Sleeping Beauty of the Senate.

funny scene, according to n correspondent Of the
Chicago Times, took place in the Senate on the day
when Mr. Voorhees, made his alleged great speech on
the tariff question He had a few attentive listen
ers but Senators Morgan and Call showed their ap-
probation Of Mr.. Voorhees, remarks by succumbing
to the heat under the monOteonous sound of his ring
ing voice, by going to sleep. Mr.. Call was two seas
to the right of Mr.. Voorhees,. His head slipped
away the back of his seat, until it looked at the
galleries in reversed position, presenting the most
horrible appearance Of suffering and pain. Mr.
Voorhees, seemed very much distressed at Mr.. Calls
indifference. He raised his voice, gestculated and
stamped but Call slept on. The Senators got to
laughing, and this woke up Mr. Morgan, who instant
ly assumed an air of intense thought as il he had
been in a sort of dream on tariff probabilities But
Mr.. Call proved impervous to Voohees' eloquence.
At one time Mr.. voorhees, adopted a very inge-
nious move to wake Mr. Call. He clapped his hands
for a page, and elapped them so loudly that every
one was startled except Mr.. Call. He made 50 much
noise that he disturbed the sleeper Mr.. Call shifted
his position, slid into his chair and crossed his hands
in front OF him if he were just laidout. As an
observer sad at looked if it were eulogy day
and the corpse were present" Mr. Call slept peace
fully throughout Mr.. Voorhees, address, and his
afternoons work unanimously voted to have been
one of the most successful Of his public career

A Fight for Life.
HOW A MAN GIVEN UP AS INCURABLE THIRTY
YEARS AGO ESCAPED DEATH.
Reno Journal.

Reno Journal
A. H, Barnes, Of Reno, Nevada, fights ofltonsump-
tion by wearing silver tube, which passes between
the ribs into the lungs. In lS49 Mr. Barnes then
living in Sycamore DeKalb county, Ill., was declared
an incurable consupmtive. The lung was tapped and
he recoved In 1868 he again was taken down by II
disease, when he resoItei to the tube and
has worn it constantly ever since. There is daily
discharge of matter. Mr. Barnes is a man Of very
regular and temperate habits, does not use tobacco
in any form stimuants of any kind hardly ever
any medicine excepting sometimes n little iron
for the blood is always feeling well when the hole
in his side is open, sometimes feeling a heavinCss
there, but has got used to that This case is GER
tainly worthy of the special attention of medical
men. 1t seems to give man lease of life,
even when apparently as good as dead.
When Mr. Barnes conceived the idea of tapping
his lung all the physicians but secuted it as a
thing that would prove fatal. However, he persuad-
ed DR.. Woodman to perform the operation In 1868
Mr.. Barnes in Honey Lake Valley, and was on
the brink of the grave. Now, again. the resident
physicians opposed to the idea of an incision
and after repeated appeals for an operation, which
was refused Mr.. Barnes borrowed a lance and cut
MS side himself He then inserted catheter, and
lrawng off nearly quart of matter immediate re-
ief was found. The cough and expectoraton stop
BED almost instantly, and Mr.. Barnes soon upon
lis feet again Thus has he prolonged his life over
30 years.

Blind and Deaf.
But MARVEL OF MECHANICAL pExrERIry ,xD
POET WITHAL

One OF the most remarkable products Of humanity
known TO this generation, says the New Orleans
Ficayune, is Morrison Heady, of Kentucky He is
blind as bat and deaf a post and laboring under
such disadvantages that il would be wonderful if he
could do or had learned anything. He is a marvel
OF mechanical dexterity, Of inventive genius and of
clear and quick eogitation. One seeing him walking
the streets of Louisville with head erect and strong
tread, holding little boy by the hand, would not
suspect his disabilities watching him at the couu.
ter OF hardware store purchasing knife would
an observer think anything of the matter unless he
happened to note that the dealer spoke no word but
only touched the hand of the customer. Among his
inventions is leather glove with the letters of the
alphabet on it, You talk to him as fast as YOU
can touch those letters with the end of your finger
Another OF his inventions is mechanical writing
machine, with which he can write and others can
transcribe. The machine pricks its way along the
paper and he can read his writing by the sense
OF touch. Others can the machine 10 write out
for him anything not procurable in blind type and
he can then read it with his fingers and indirectly
have access to the literary gems which would otherwise
hear but it is useless to read to Heady His speech
is clear and sharp as that of a man of education
combined with great force of will and perfect faculties
Since he cannot hear himself speak the fact is re.
markabe psychic puzzle-for the best of us learn
of pronunciation and dstuctness of enun-
citation, by dint of long practice and study educa
ting ourselves by the aid of our and eyes.
Among his other accomplishments this man num-
bers the art Of poetry. Several years ago he pub.
pamphlet of twenty pages containing selections
from his unpublished compost lions At every point
he is master. Iambie Tentameter rolls from his
machine as easily as iambic tetrameter rppled from
Scott's pen. The reader who has never seen this
mans poetry will be ncredulous.
