This in6rmity, 1t is said, is becom-
ing q common afiliciion. At present
there are several persons under treat
ment for II at one London hospital.
1t first takes the form of color-blind-
ness, the sufferers, who have smoked
themselves into this condition, being
quite unable to distinguish the color
of piece Of red cloth held up before
them. Sometimes the victim loses his
eyesight altogether. Tobacco being a
narcotic, naturally benumbs the nerves.
When the nerves are thus benumbed
people do not see as distinctly, and
this effectiveness of vision tends to
increase and becomes permanent.

A CONGREssIOSALDEAD

The House OF Representatives on
mere parliamentary bubble on WedneS-
day afternoon got into wrangle that u
reported as still going on last night, al
the routine OF business being overihrown
for two days and sectional quarrel pre-
cipita,ed on the direct tax bill.
One OF these silly contests once was
kept up for nearly three weeks, night and
aav, the minority, as in the present dead
lock, making its fight by dilaiory motions
and roll-oalls Wednesday was assigned
for the consideration Of the direct tax
bill, and upon the motion to al
iourn in the afternoon at the
usual hour vote had not been
reached. and the fight began with the
tactics used on such occasions when one
side wants the question let go and the
other insists that it shall be settled. AT
cam. on Thursday tho House still being
in session the statesmen sought relief by
taking recess instead of adjOurning
until Thursday at l1:45 st which time the
question of the previous day was still be-
fore the House.
All this does not do the friends Of the
bill under consideration any good, and
already the two special days assigned to
the Committee on Commerce are lost and
the many important bills reported by the

All this because two sets OF politicians
want to vent their spleen in parlia-

tempered consideration during the time
allotted to it. As it is it becomes shut
tlecock and loses all its features except
the character. OF thing to play a game
with.
