How the Blind See.

l asked those who beclme blind in
youth or later, whether they were in
the habit of giving imaginary faces
to the persons they met after their
blindness, and whether they ever
saw such in theta. Some answered in
very vague terms, butseveral undoub-
tedly make good use of this power
probably somewhat on the same basis
as we imagine the appearance of emf
nent men of whom we have read or
heard, but whose features we have
not seen. When we remember how
erroneous such impressions often are
we can understand how it often mis-
leads the blind. Such imaginary faces
and scenes also enter into their
dreams, but to less extent than in
to those of the sighted. Doctor Kitto
quotes letter from a musician who
lost his sight when eighteen years
old, but who retained ii very strong
visualizing power both in waking
life and in dreams. The mention OF
famous man, of friend, or of a
scene, always carries with it a Virtual
picture, complete and vivid. More
ever these images of his friends
change as the friends grow old, and
he feels himself intellectually in no
way different from the seeing.

Sands of Slaughter


Long after Harnesses IL. Cambyses
came and on the pyramid plain con
quered the Egyptians, mutilated the
face of the Sphinx and broke into
true outlines ofthe pyramids-ruth-
less conqueror, vandal and destroy
er that he was. Twenty-four cent
uries after, Napoleon, with his CON
quering hosts, met the gold-covered
Mamelukes, who, riding as swift as
the wind and as flame of fire.
hacked the barrels Of the French
guns with their blades of Damascus
steel. 1t was like a blazing volcano.
All YVES smoke and blood and mutt
lation. as though an earthquake had
come. Dropping their heads to the
saddle-bow, the fearless Mamelukes
rode forward and met the awful vol
leys of the invader, but only to sink
IN the sand. Without horses then,
and lying upon their backs wound
ed, they cut at the legs Of the enemy
with their keen sabers, never yield
ing until conquered by death. And
there, close TO the Sphinx, one can
see now the very place whence came
up the clouds of smoke and flame
amid the yells of the demons who
fought, where lay the masses of dead
and dying, where the depleted ranks
of the victors moved along with
bristling arms and broken standards
Incoming and swirling like the sea
that refuses to be quiet after the
storm.

The Incentive to Own a Home

The Manufacturer and Builder
thinks that the man who is working
to secure small piece Of property
substitutes a new and distinct am
bition for n remote and vague one.
Day dreams about large estates and
princely incomes may be very anus
ing, but they are not half so profit
able as a vision of lot 100 by POO,
with snug little dwelling house
upon it. With this before him, a
man will rise to early and retire late,
turning his hand cheerfully to any
and every kind of work. He will
have amotive for rigorous economy
which will make it a pleasure. He
will have the vision of the last pay
ment before him as perpetual mo-
tive to moderation in passions, econ.
omy in expenses, abstinence from cx-
pensive pleasures and from expen-
sive companions. Thus it will come
to pass that a judicious debt, incur
red at the beginning Of journey
mans or laborer's career, will be-
come his good genius, watching over
him, melting him to all industry
and to self government Every labor
ing man ought to own his house.
the first duty Of the workingman
should be to convert his earnings
into real estate.

An Accommodating Gentleman.

Soon the slender white shaft OF
lighthouse appeared ahead, and,
close by, the huge bulk Of Fort I.iy-
ingston, which commands the en-
trance to Baratar!a Bay. Light
house and fort are on an island call
ed Grand Terre. Only one man
stays IN the fort, an old sergeant,
who looks after the government prop
erty The other persons living on
Grand Terre are the lighthouse
keeper and Cabin gentleman, nam
ed Pepe Lulu, who used to make
sugar until tidal-wave ruined his
plantation, and who now keeps cat
tie for a living This Cuban used to
be a famous duelist in his younger
days. During the Cuban War for
independence, he published letter
in a New Orleans paper, challenging
any and all Spaniards to fight
him. Nobody accepted the chal-
lenge, for he was known to be dead
shot.
A good story is told about this
combative old gentleman. He had
some difference with former light
house keeper, who used to be his
friend, and for two or three years
the two neighbors did not speak to
each other. A mutualacquaintancc
ventured to demonstrate with Pope
Lulu.
Very well, replied the Cuban
with his strong spanish accent, you

there being q number Of arrivals yesterday from
all parts of tho State The first service was
held Tuesday evening. when Elder Corless

be taken as in snare. Yesterday morning the
etand was occupied by Dr. j. H. kellogg. of
Michigan, who spoke upon the subject OF temper
ance Seventh-day Adventists, he said, consid-
cred temperance in dress and eating as Of as
much importance as temperance In drinking
He thought all temperance workers should raise
their voices against the use OF TOBACCO. tea,
coffee and pork, which, he declared
every Intelligent man knew to be in furious
to health. In the afternoon q sermon was
delivered by Elder Butler. The attendance
both morning aud afternoon, was good, and the
attention very marked. The camp is located

Decides to Retire from the Library.

called meeting of the members of the School
Board constituting the committee on public
library WAS held last night to consider William
De NJ. Hooper's resignation Of the Office Of
librarian, which be has held for nearly Ave
years. Mr.. Hooper resigned on account of fail
ing health and physical inability to perform the
duties connected with the office, which are
naturally somewhat arduous, and have become
more SO on account of the invoicing of the
books. He has devoted himself to his work
and his resignation was o surprise to
the few who made aware
of the fact yesterday. Who will
succeed him is as yet not decided. "The place
will be temporarily filed said member of
the board last night, "by some one OF the attend
ants in the library at the present time. 1t is too
soon TO conjecture 20 whom shall select
permanently, and in this matter We shall not
act hastily; intend to take plenty of time
and make choice which will not be- regretted

On account OF the invoicing no books will be
issued for circulation for several days. The de-
hvery-room will he kept open. however. in order

An Alleged Anarchist.

United States Commissioner Van Buren,. after
examining four witnesses yesterday afternoon,
bound over to the grand jury Daniel ". Ting
ley. charged with blowing up the Cutler postoffice
last Thursday at midnight with dynamite. On
the night of the explosion one witness testified
that Tingley had been heard to say that he in
tended blowing up the town E. Bishop of Frank
fort in his evidence said that the prisoner was
the same man who had on last Thursday pur-
chased six pounds of dynamite and that he lad
recognized him on another occasion in
the hotel at Cutler. whom the arrest was
made. While the examination was in progress,
and afterward, Tiugley continually asserted his
innocence. He is twenty-six years of age sandy
complexion, and painter by trade. OF lat. he
had been tending bar in the only saloon in Cut
Ter, and became offended at the postmaster,
William Sellers. because, as he said Sellers
signed remonstrance petitioning the commits
sioners not to grant the proprietor OF the saloon
another license. When the explosion occurred
Tinglsy was at once suspected, but was not at
once arrested until Mr. Bishop. of whom the
dynamite had been purchased recognized him.
He was then taken into custody and kept in Jail
ut Delphi, until yesterday. when he was brought
here by Deputy United States Marshal Ward.
Deputy Postmaster Mckinney says the prisoner
Is an Anarchist. Tingley says that he will be
able to give the required bond Of 5000 to-day.

Preparing for Electric LIGHT.

The Brush Electric-light Company hopes to
be able TO light the central part Of the city with
electricity in a month or six weeks. The secur-
ing Of the contract necessitated the putting in
of an almost entirely new plant here, and there
has been some delay in having the new
machinery made. In addition to the dvpamos
now 10 use. two new ones Of the greatest
capacity are being put in position. The work of
setting the poles and strineine the wires will be
pushed rapidly The Council committee on
public light, under whose direction the lights
will be located. has not yet determined in what
territory the one hundred lights will be dis
tributed. 1t is probable that all that portion Of
the city lying within North, East, South and
West streets will be lighted The light. under
the contract, will burn all night the year round

10 commenting on this statement the receiver
says IL seems that at least sll. l05.1 IS drawn
from the mutual aid fund and used for other
purposes other than paying death and total die
ability losses He thinks the amended articles
Of the constitution perhaps gave some authority
for the division Of the fund, but still it was the
application Of the money in this manner that
added to the complication Of the financial con-
dition Of the order.
With reference to the unpaid claims against
the lodge mentioned in Supreme President Mac
beth's circular the receiver says IL will be found
that sthirty-one Of the forty-seven bear date
prior to October, 1856, aud eleven subsequent
to that time, while there 10 no record showing
the date OF the remainder. Taking it for
granted that the thirty-one policy holders have
legitimate claims, and that there was Q wrong
full perversion Of the mutual aid fund the re-
ceiver leaves it to the court TO say who Is
responsible.
The report closes with references to the bonds
OF the trustees and officers, and states that be
has been unable to get possession of those OF su-
preme president, secretary and treasurer. He
also refers to the absence Of certain entries on
the books which would identity certain cash
which be had been told was received.
