but few in attendance and the program

Home FOR the Adu1t blind.

DNs MoINEs Ia, May 26.-TSpecIal to The
BEE. During the session OF the last gen
eral assembly, a committee appointed by a
convention of the blind people of the state,
appeared before it. They asked for an ap-
preparation and the necessary legislation to
provide for the establishment somewhere in
the state of an industrial home for the adult
blind. Their request was backed by petit
tions from many of the blind people of the
state, as well as from others. The legislature
passed an act creating commission for this
purpose, and last March Governor Larrabee
appointed as the commission, Hon. L. A..
of Des Moines, and Miss Lorana Mattice, of
Benton county. The commissioners were to
investigate and prepare a report to be laid
before the next general assembly, with such
recommendations as should seem best.
In pursuance of their instructions, they
visited a number of the leading schools and
working homes for the blind in the east, and
they have reached conclusion that the state
should establish an industrial homo for the
1,5o0 and 1000 blind people In this state, 80
per cent of whom are adults. 1t is intended
that this industrial home will afford constant
employment to such as desire It, and thus
enable them to be self-supporting. They
find it hard word under present conditions
to compete with those who can see and thus
earn living. 1t is suggested that they
could work at broom making, mattress-malf-
ing, carpet weaving, cane seating OF chairs,
engaged In gathering information on the
subject, and will embody the results of their
Investigation in o report which will be laid
before the next general assembly.

A Revolutionary Wreck.

In excavating to deepen creek
which is to be used as a timber basin for
Fl. p. Smart & Bros new steam shingle
mill, on the Vale Royal tract, the tim
bers of II large vessel have been partly
exhumed, says the Savannah News.
The end Of the keelson can be seen i'm
bedded in the mud at one point, and
about thirty feet from it well-pre-
served live-oak rib, with part OF the
planking attached, was taken out. The
land in this vicinity was reclaimed from
the river, and there is a tradition that
it was at or near this point that the
British, during the siege OF Savannah
in 1879 by the armies under General
D'Estaing and Lincoln, sunk vessels
across the river to prevent the French
ana American war vessels, which had
passed around the western end OF
Hutchinson's 5 island, from enflading e
the defenses of the town. 1t Is not i'm
proba BILE that the old wreck which ID
now brought to light, if not one OF those
sunk at that time, has not been aloat
during this century.

An Interesting Decision.

Dies MONIES, Ia, May 26.--[Special to
The BEE. THE supreme court has decided
a rather novel but interesting case affecting
the right to bridge navigable waters. The
county authorities of Dickinson county had
authorized the building Of bridge over the
small arm of West Okoboii lake, which con-
meets it with East Okoboji. The bridge was
to be draw, but suit was brought to enioin
them from paying for the bridge, on the
ground that 1t would be obstruction to navi-
CATION. and that the county had no control
over the bottom ofthe lake. The supreme
court sustains the Injunction and says that
the state owns the bottom OF the lakes and
that no county has right to lay out high
way over them, and then order bridge to
be built in order to utilize this highway
The arm of the lalss.in question is only few
rods wide, but the court holds that the state
has never relinquished its right TO the land
at the bottom of the water and therefore no
county can bridge it, This settles point
which may be of interest In many parts of
the state where ngigable streams or bodies
OF water are found.

DEs MoINRs, May 26.-tSpecial to THE
BEE. There Is queer case of river poison
ing at Marshalltown. Mention was already
once made IN dispatches to The BEE OF the
complaints that came from Tama county Of
the condition of the Iowa river, in which fish
were dying by the cart load. The secretary
OF the board of health has been to MARSHALL
town and made personal and careful in-
spection Of the situation. 1t was thought at
first that the refuse of the glucose factory
was responsible for the pollution, but that
hardly seems to be the trouble since in other
places the same refuse is turned into streams
without damage or cause for complaint But
1t was learned by the health officer THAT in
1887 tho creek, on which the factories were
located, was very low, so low in fact that
the bed of the stream was filed with refuse
matter, and there was not water enough to
carry 1t away. 1t has lain there fermenting
and decaying ever since, and is now a
living mass of corruption, con-
sequently it pollutes the creek and the river
into which the creek empties. A sample of
the water was brought back. It is black as
night, and has an odor that nearly knocks a
man down at ten PAGES. 1t is to be analysed,
and meantime the health officers will try to
determine some way of abating the nuisance.

At home we hear q good deal about
the Pilgrim Fathers, but you just ought
TO come to Paris to learn all about the
Pilgrim Mothers, says correspondent
of the st. Louis Republic. Wherever
you are, in hotel, pension Or in the
house OF one Of the numerous American
residents on the Champs Elysee, you
are confronted with the mother who
has one or two daughters over here to
finish their education, while the father
an unknown quantity-remains in
America to earn the wherewithal to
render such visit possible. The
guages and music and the mother sits
about like an ogre to see that they do
not learn any less intellectual arts.
These girls are prey for men wherever
they are discovered. I know of one
salon where at least ten girls can be
found each night with no protector be-
yond the ample mamma who sits to one
side with the hostess while the
girls go dancing about with
young clerk Of the foreign Legations
or lieutenant of the army, or perhaps, q
real live minister Of one of the powers.
l stumbled on scene last night at an
American lady's house which was es-
pecially instructive. l had wandered
out to the conservatory, at the rear of
the house, to smoke cigarette. The
vlolins were playing a sweet waltz in
the drawing-room, and, as | crossed q
