There is a society for the preven-
ton of blindness in England. 1t is
calculated that blindness annually costs
Europe no less a sum than 100000,
and England alone no less than $780,
300; 50 that by removing the causes
not only will a large amount of acute
suffering, as well as deprivation from
the pleasure of sight, be prevented, but
great financial gain will result. AS
yet, the operations of the society have
been mainly confined to London, but
the offer of a substantial prize for the
best essay On the causes of blindness
and the most practical means of pre-
venting it will doubtless lead to the
dissemination of much valuable infor-
nation on the subject.

"The fact is" says the st. Louis
Globe Democrat, "the average tea-drin-
ker does not know a genuine, pure and
fine article from poor, adulterated, and
cooked-over leaves. The American
taste for tea has become Initiated. So
has our taste for coffee. The effective
ness of the inspection law may there
fore be doubted"

The National Yellowstone park en-
braces in its limits 3,575 square miles
'-more territory than Rhode Island
and Delaware combined. 1t is sixty
i've miles wide and sixty-iive long.
1t lies mainly in the northwestern cor
ner of Wyoming territory, but includes
thin strip of Idaho on the west and
Montana on the west and north. The
body of it is between 10 degrees and
Ill degrees west longitude, and As de-
grees north latitude. The lowest ele-
walton in the park is 5000 feet above
sea-level, and its highest (mountain
peak from 10000 to $4,000 feet. It
is, therefore, an immense table-land,
with a surface broken into mountain
ranges, valleys, etc.

In the spring of 1880 the ground
upon which Albuquerque, New Mexico
now stands was a marsh intelsected by
irrigating bitches. To-day there stands
On this ground a busting city of over
5000 people. 1t is in Bcrnalillo coun-
ty, about $50 miles from Kansas City,
and is the eastern terminus of the At
lantic and Pacific railroad. The city is
named in honor of the Duke of Albu-
querque, and the old town, old Albu-
querque, situated about one mile and a
half distant, was one of the early Span
ish settlements. The proper pronun-
citation is Albukcrkay, but the natives
and the people Of this part of the coun-
try call it Albukirk. No town in the
West, except Leadville, has developed
more rapidly. The county has 3,0O0,-
900 sheep, and in 1882 Albuquerque
shipped 100000 pounds of wool.

Complaints are coming from Colo
RADIO that pasturage is actually becom-
ing scarce on the great plains. The
ranchers have entered homesteads of
100 acres each, and also pre-empted
another 166 acres along the few water
courses and around the springs. Oc-
cupying these they practically control
thousands of acres of government
grass lands on either side, which, with
out water, are absolutely useless for
any purpose, and for which the gov
eminent receives no compensation. 1t
would seem, says the Boston CultiUa-
tor, as if some legislation should be
made offering these grass-lands on the
market at a price which would justify
cattle-breeders in purchasing them.
1t is estimated that the grass of twen-
ty acres is required fer the support of
single animal, ana SO theprice should
necessarily be much below that of ara
BILE lands.

A Boston paper having asserted
that the Americans do not understand
the art of eating, and that, with few
exceptions, they do not know what
good food is, and that these exceptions
are mostly people who have been
abroad. Philadelphia Progress dis.
sents, and says: "In their homes Amer
leans do not often have good eating
not because they do not know what it
is, but because they cannot induce the
home authorities to give that import
ance to the table it deserves. 1t is in
Americans everywhere else--the wom-
en- folks will not take the necessary
trouble for good eating. The best
family eating is in those houses where
men do the marketing and are not
above pottering around the kitchen.
The American man would like to be a
bon viyant, but the American woman
will not let him. 1t is not through ig-
norance that the ajority Of family Ia
bles are what they are, or even through
economy, but through carelessness and
laziness. 1t is quite task to order a
good dinner but nine American men
out of ten can do it, and do it when
they are at the clubs or at first-class
restaurant and their pocket-books are
accommodating"

THE MANLY ART.

Old Boxers Was ALI BOSh.
He Is Ready to Meet the
Maori, But SHADES Talk
Is AL Wind.

By T leSraph 10 the Post. Dispatch.
New YORK, February 10. John L.
Sullivan will probably spar no more In
exhibitions with Joseph Coburn. His
reason tor arriving at such a conclu-
sion, Sullivan explained as follows:
"They may say what they choose about
old.time boxers and science, and those
very old.timers now among us take the
greatest pains to tell newspaper men
how great they once were, but they
are not what they claim to be. Coburn
told q reporter at Auburn, N. Y,
when asked how I compared with box.
ers of fifteen years ago, that I could
not come Up to them In science, but
was powerfully strong and muscular.
For himself he said he chad lost none
OF his oli-time science and cleverness."
l know what I am talking about when
I say that II Joe Coburn Is a fair ex.
ample of the scientific boxers of his
earlier career, they must have been q
very poor lot, for q worse or less scien-
tifc sparrer than Coburn 1t would be
hard to find, In fact he Is very bad.
When l asked him about the Auburn
interview he denied having said a
word to the reporter but l knew bet
ter, and after that / sho we'd him Just
what modern science was. 1 have
made up my mind that he Ia not good
enough for me to box with, and l do
not think I am doing justice to myself
In travelling through the country with
him as an equal par tner In the exhibl.
ton business"
What are the chances of q battle
between you and Mace or Slade2"
