Work that Deaf Mutes Can Do.

''The number of deaf and dumb per-
sons in the city, exclusive of those in the
institution, is about eight hundred, "said
Principal Crouter, of the Pennsylvania
Institution for the Deaf and Dunno, to a
Philadelphia Times reporter. "Last year
a committee took great deal of trouble
to trace the lives of graduates for ten
years back and the figures obtained are
very gratifying. 1t was found that
lightweight out of every hundred are
self-supporting, working at various
trades in which hearing is not an abso
lutte requisite. Deaf and dumb people
can be found at work in carpenter shops,
machine shops, and in similar industrial
establishments. That lithograph on the
wall is the work of graduate. l know
of four lawyers who are deaf mutes-two
in Ohio and two in Canada. The late
Chief Examiner of Patents Parkinson
was deaf mute. and a number of the
| government clerks in Washington are
afflicted in the same way These cases
show that speech and hearing are not alb
solutely essential for comparative success
in various walks of life. A large num-
Der of those known as deaf and dumb
can speak, however, thanks to the educa-
tion received in institutions of this char
acter. There are two schools in this
State, this one and one about half the
capacity In Pittsburg. At Washington
and several other pieces there are schools
for higher education, where graduates
from the ordinary institutions may con-
tinue their studies to almost any desired
extent.
Teaching the deaf and dumb is very
difficult work, requiring great expert
ence and indomitable patience. 1t is,
perhaps, twice as difficult as teaching
the blind. 1t is comparatively easy to
reach the understanding of the blind,
because they can hear. But in the case
of child born deaf it is an entirely diff.
ferent matter. Where the deafness is
accidental or occurring through disease,
say at eight, ten or twelve years of age,
the work is not so hard. The fact that
the child has once had the sense Of hear
ing is great foundation. In this insti-
tuition we use both the sign or manual
system and the oral or lip-reading sys-
TEN. The former is the French idea and
the latter the German.
''Of the total number of deaf persons
about one-third can be made to speak.
but Of those who are born deaf the pro.
portion is very much lower in fact,
would not like to reduce it TO figures.
We have oral classes here beside those at
the branch oral school at Eleventh and
Clinton streets. Industrial education is
receiving more attention each year. We
have now carpenter shops, tailoring
shops and a printing Office. The girls
are taught all the forms of needlework,
cooking and the various other feminine
occupations" "

the channel, but secluded from the In
dians, is tin box known to every sea-
man who navigates this part of the world.
Every passing skipper places in this box
/ letters and newspapers for other vessels
that are expected this way, and takes out
whatever is found to belong to him or
his men. All the newspapers and books
that seamen are done with are deposited
here, which are picked up by the next
vessel to arrive, and replaced with new
lot. 1t is sort of international posta
clearing house, and sailors say that the
advantages il offers have never been
abused during the half century the sys-
tenn has existed.
Every time a vessel passes through
the straits the Fuegian Indians come out
in their canoes to show their sociability
and trade what property they are for
tunate enough to be possessed of for to-
bacco and rum. The passenger steamers
seldom stop, but freight boats usually
do, and hold interviews with the natives.
The steamer we were on ran through
several fleets of dugouts, greatly TO the
danger of those who occupied them, as
they padded across our course in the
most reckless and excited manner. In
each of the frail canoes were three or
four people and several children, who
screamed and gesticulated in the most
violent manner. They came so near the
ship that we could distinguish their fea-
lures and hear their words, which were
olamors for ''tabac" 0obacco) and "gal-
leta" food). Fol- plug of navy they
would exchange a guanaco blanket that
could not be bought in New York for
$15, as the guanaco is one of the rarest
and finest of skins The anger and dis.
gust that was pictured upon the faces of
these creatures when they found that
the vessel was not slackenIng her speed
would have furnished a model for the
expressions on the souls that are lost.
The passengers were about as much dis
appointed as they, for we had all read
and heard of the Fuegans, and antici-
pated much gusto, as the Spaniards say,
in making their acquaintance. We knew
that steamers usually stopped TO let pas
sengers have look at the cannibals, and
had read in Lady Brassey's Voyage of
the Sunbeam and other descriptions of
travel in these parts of the interesting
encounters they had with them. and we
had prepared ourselves with tobacco and
other articles for the purpose of barter
ing for skins and other mementos of
savage life

A WOnderfnI Change Of Weatner.

The Denver Opinion recalls to the re-
collection of its readers an extraordinary
storm which once visited that region.
1t was about the middle of July. A
party of herders started out with the
stock of the company to which they be-
longed. Having to cross a river to get
to the grazing ground, they halted when
about 500 yards distant 10 refresh them
selves, the day being excessively warm.
They improyised shelter by hanging
blankets over the sage brush and thus
protecting themselves from the scorching
sun. Instantly, without a moments
warning, a cloud came rapidly froIa the
north, so increasing in size as it pro
gressed that by the time it reached the
herders it developed into a most terrific
snow storm, equal to anything witnessed
IN mid-winter. The herders hastened to
drive the stock back to the fort, but had
great difficulty in finding their way for
the darkness. Out of seventy head OF
horses only ten survived the sudden
change in the weather.
