We noted with pleasure and satisfac-
ton the action of our delegates at the
Baton Rouge Convention. The dele
gation of st. Martin parish was in favor
of McEnery, but as he withdrew, and
was no more candidate, it became the
duty of the delegates to cast their votes
openly for the only candidate before the
conyention-Gen. Francis 4. Nichols,
instead of voting in blank and then make
his nomination unanimous.
We applaud our delegates, aud we be-

Effect of Glare upon Eyesight.

1t appears that Professor Plateau, Of
the University of Client, while trying to
observe the effects of tho irritation OF
the retina gazod steadily at tho sun for
twenty seconds, the result being that
chronic irid o-choroiditis developed,
ending eventually in total blindness A
number of cases are known in which
choroiditis and retinitis occurred in
persons who had observed an eclipse Of
the sun. The single flash of suu-re-
fector has been known to cause retinitis,
and other temporary visual disturbance

quently noted. M. Reich has described
curious epidemic of snow blindness,
which occurred among a body Of la
borers engaged in clearing
way through the masses Of snow
which INSTRUCTED the road between Pas
sanaur and Mteti in the Caucasus; the
rays of the sun reflected from the vast
stretches of snow on every SIDE pro-
duced an intense glare of light, which
the unaccustomed eye could not support
without the protection of dark glasses.
A few of the sturdiest among the labor
ers were able to work with impunity,
but the majority suffered so much that
among seventy strongly marked cases
thirty were 50 severe that the men were
absolutely unable to continue work or to
fad their way home and lay
prone on their faces, striving to hide
their faces from the light and crying
out from pain. Recovery was gradual
but complete.
