A BLIND GENIUS.

The Remarkable Intelli.ence Of q Sight.
.ess Store-Keeper.
A few hundred yards north of Rupp's
mill in East Earl, Lancaster County lives
John Wenger, who has been totally blind
for more than quarter OF century.
He is now nearly fifty years old. and
though sightless since he was boy, he
is endowed with the most remarkable
human instinct, far beyond the average
seeing ones, and to one who is not
aware of the facts it seems incredible
that sightless person could do what
he actually does. Not satisfied with
doing nothing, rs many another would
in his unfortunate condition, his hands
and mind are as busy as if sight were
as grand blessing to him as to those
wbD see. He has quite large country
store where he dispenses the usual
goods. that are sold by country mer-
chants; there he is perfectly at homo
and every thing is as familiar and con-
venient to him as if seen, yet he
never saw his stock of goods He has
the most acute sense of touch and can
as readily tell money by touch as others
can by sight He will go to almost any
place IN the eastern end Of the country
by himself, the roads seem to lead him
wherever he wants to go. But the
most remarkable of all is that besides
taking care of his store he is agent for
agricultural implements, among them
a well-known binder, with which he IS
as familiar as the inveotor himself. He
is able to put it together and can tell
at once when any thing is wrong by

illustration of the Popular Idea Of So.
Called "MeannesS."

Economy is duty; meanness a sin.
There is no true generosity that is de-

conversation, overheard between two

very popular idea of so-called ''mean-

II declare, l hate such stinginess.
What do you suppose makes her so

The cause of Mrs. Ks so-called
''miserliness" is given in the following
extract lately taken from a paper pub
lished in the city in which she lives:
..Mrs. H. L. k has Just given ten
thousand dollars to the fund being
raised for the Orphans Home in this
city. The same generous and noble
minded lady has also given ten thou
sand dollars towards an institution for
the education of poor boys and girls.
Her constant charities in other direc-

METEoRs AnALYzED.
~ vosious Sshst.nces which They Bhag
to the Earth.

- voS10us Substances Which They Bk108
to the Earth.
The meteOrs coming to our earth
without, excepting as to their superb
cial vitritication. undergoing any
change. we are able, by subjecting them
to analysis. to derive from them some
precise facts respecting the cOnstitu-
ton of the bodies in space. The first
fact, which comes out from hundreds
of analyses. is, that they have not
brought single substance that is for
eign to our globe. About twenty-five
elements, all known to the chemistry
of this earth. have been recognized as
present in them. Among these. iron,
silicon, magnesium, nickel, sulphur,
phosphorus and carbon are the most
important. While they are all clad ex-
ternally in q common livery. meteor
ties, when examined in their fractured
parts, along with traits of similarity,
present considerable differences. They
have been classified. according to their
types, into four groups. according to
the proportion of iron they contained.
Those of the first group are composed
almost wholly of iron, which is known
as meteoric iron. 1t is always alloyed
with nickel and few other metals, and
contains carbon free or in com binatiOn,
as in steel. with frequently sulphuret
and phosphuret of iron in scattering
globules and grains. 1t is always rec
Ognizable by single peculiarity in its
structure. If we moisten polished
surface of it with an acid,
We shall Immediately observe
the appearance of numerous
straight lines, as fine and as true in
their parallelism as if made with an
engravers tool, and crossing one an
other in network of regular geomet-
rical figures. These designs, called the
figures of Widmanstaetten. after the
first observer of them, result from the
fact that the metal is not of homogene-
Gus constitution. 1t is composed of
two alloys of iron and nickel. in crys-
talIine condition, one of which, not
being affected by the acid, stands out
in relief from the other, which is at
tackled by it. The meteorities of this
group are called holosideritcs. or all
iron, in distinction from the others,
which contain also stony matters.
They are vastly more rare than those
of the other groups. The stony sub
stances of the other groups consist
hietly of silica in combination with
magnesia and peroxide of il on, as peri
dote or pyroxene. If these silicates are
in small proportion and thinly scattered
through the iron. they are syssiderites;
if it is the iron that is in relatively small
proportion and appearing only in iso-
lated grains, they are spOrodosidsrites.
In other meteorites. comparatively few
in number, no metallic iron can be
perceived, and they are called asider-
ties. The most interesting specimens
among them are remarked by their
dull black color, and general appear
ance like that of peat or Ignite. Be-
side stony matters, they contain carbon
in combination with hydrogen and oxy-
gen-a chemical quality which has led
to their being examined for remains of
organic beings. But no trace of any
thing Of the kind has been discovered

the station. and before long tho station
itself had to be moved nearer to Wady
Halfa- This continued for some time,
and of course the annoyance of hsving
to move the station every few days was
very great. At last, when it had been
moved over mile. with NO reason a.
signed for the shrinkage, an investiga.
ton was held. Engineers, brakeMen.
and track-walkers were examined, but
with no result. As last resort .
party took the morning train to Wady
Halfa to consult with the authorities
there and find out whether the track
was moving ut that point. The train
was composed of a passenger coach Of
the English compartment style, a
freight ear, fiat car, with water tank,
and engine No. 1. The engine was
built many years ago, and. as it had
done service in England. India and al
the Cape, it was good deal the worse
for wear: in fact, it was broken down
on one side, and only puffed odd NUM-
bers. 1t did not puff 1-2-3-4-5-6. etc..
like our engines, but groaned out Is
80, etc, making fearful noise.
Two natives, with a hand pump. did
duty as injectors. and were posted on
the top of the water tank, where they
pumped for dear life.
Well, all went merrily for few
miles, and no important discoveries
were made in relation to the object
of the trip until large curve was
reached. The engine did not run very
straight. The engineer was not at the
helm, or else the extra exertiOn on one
side caused the old machine to forget
to 60 around the curve, and the whole
train kept on straight ahead over the
desert, till the sand clogged the wheels
and brought it to standstill.
The investigation party were natur.
ally annoyed at this delay, little think
ing it would solve the vexed problem.
The engineer and fireman came back
and assured them that derailment was
a common occurrence. and that they
would soon be on their way again.
Then came the discovery. The crew
of the train did not attempt to get it
on the track again. They simply put
jackscrews under each portion and
raised it few inches from the desert
This done, all hands laid hold of the
track and drew il over to and under
the train. let the cars down. picked up
their jackscrews, blew the whistle. and
off they steamed. Having ascertained
that this was customary proceeding,
and reasoning that the operation in-
creased the number of curves, the in-
vestigators were not long in deciding
that they had found the cause of the
shrinkage.-Cor. BOston Herald

DRESS NOTES.
Favoritc Styles and special Novelties f,,s
tho Midsummer Season.

tuo IuuSuihu1ct Sc0SOus
Frise tussore or pongee silks are
among the novelties in dress fabrics.
Gloves are quite rs long as last sea-
son, from eight to twelve buttons be-
ing the desirable number. although
six-button gloves are in good demand
for general wear.
A special novelty in Japanese fold
ing fans is shown in painted Grape.
The mount has gold or silver figures or
bright-colored designs on the crinkly
surface of the Grape.
just now the favOritc shades of color
are geranium-red, Ophelia purple, al
mond-green, and pretty tint called
'.leather." which is very convenient to
wear and looks we'll with any other
color.
The 'robin-redbreast" plastron is
very popular with young and slender
ladies. 1t is made of dull red silk, as
near the color of robin-redbreasts'
plumage as the shade can be found,
and is allowed to fall full below the
waist.
A favorite style of walking-dress il
that of Spanish vailing; the underskirt
plated all round; the upper-skirt is di-
vided into two parts, one slightly
draped across the front. the other
looped up into puff at the back. On
the left side this upper-skirt is slit open
from top to bottom, and both parts are
joined together again by vandykes Of
velvet ribbon.
Muslin dresses for young girls are
sometimes made very pretttly with y
finely plated plastron and skirt-front;
the rest of the bodice is plain, and the
back and sides of the skirt are disposed
in large plaits. A wide sash is passed
round the waist and tied at the back
in bow with long loops and ends.
Printed muslins, however, are not as
popular in Paris as lawns. cambrics
or even toile sc ITCHY. or the finer cot
ton fabric called toile zephir.-N Y
