Man Who Is Wholly Blind.

The Active Business Life Of n Chicago
Man Who Is Wholly Blind.
The wonder of West Harrison street Is
blind man. William F. Buschick, who
lives at 11l5. where he conducts a retail
rigar and confectionery store. a casual
observer would not be apt to discover
that the storekeeper is totally blind from
the manner in which he moves around
and shows off his goods. Mr.. Buschick
keeps his own accounts, waits on the
customers, takes in money and hands
out change as deftly rs any saleswoman
in down town store. He seldom makes
mistakes in handling coin, and if any
body were mean enough to try it would
not be an easy matter to pass counter
felt coins ON him.
His sense of feeling is keen, and per-
haps more so as a result of the absence
of sight. He hands out any brand of
cigars asked for, and his sensitive finger
tips light upon the right brand of chew
ing gum without any fumbling His
eyes, which are not concealed from view,
are beautiful dark blue, and stranger
lIllO inClu NOulI llOl SuCSS llAtI
they We're so utterly useless.
Mr.. Buschick buys all his stock, going
down town on the street cars and about
the crowded streets of the business sec
ton of the south side without a guide.
He never loses his bearings When
ready to return home he waits quietly
beside peanut stand and asks the ven
der to tell him when a Harrison street
car comes. This car passes his store, and
he intuitively knows when it is opposite
his home.
He jumps from the car while it is in
motion. He walks about his store and
turns sharp corners without mishap.
He can walk straight to door and grasp
the knob without fumbling it. or trip
down stairs as lively and as gracefully
as a young woman, and never makes a
miscalculation when reaching the last
step. He is candy maker and makes
all the candy he sells.
As is usual in cases of blindness, the
loss of this man vision has quickened his
sense of feeling and hearing. When his
eyes went out of business their available
assets appear to have been transferred to
his ears and finger tips His ability to
locate objects by sound is wonderful
This was demonstrated one night when
burglar broke into his store. The rob-
Der left hastily with a leaden bullet in
his anatomy, as spots on the floor proved
the next morning. The blind man
handles a revolver cleverly and shoots
accurately for one so heavily handi-
capped, locating the object to be aimed
at by sound Chicago Tribune.

Not Altogether Modern

The opinion held by many people who
have never had their attention especially
turned to the work of Jean Jacques
Rousseau IS not that he was benefacto1
of his kind, but in reality he was one OF
the first apostles of the modern methods
of education, and it is only after all this
lapse of years that his ideas have come
to be widely adopted. It is he who once
said that we came into the world igno-
rant, but with capacity; that education
begins at birth; that we learn incredibly
in the first years, and that as impress
sions supply our first knowledge those
impressions should be of the best and
should be presented in the right order;
that the first cry of a child is a request,
the second a command: that destruct-
iveness in a child is not cruelty, but
activity: that the sin of children is their
weakness: that strength brings about
virtue. and he who can DO all things
will never do wrong things.
This we see to be undoubtedly good
reasoning in the light thrown on the
subject of late years, and understand
ing now how greatly our children are
affected by what they see US to be we COM
prehend more fully what Thales meant
when he said that men must live in the
consciousness that all around them is
filled with gods, and that this should
keep them more chaste than if they were
in the holiest of temples. Ba-
Ear.

THE South Dakota Legislature turns
out to be Republican by an ample
majority; the New Hampshire Legisla-
fure is Republican also; and although
Senator Ingalls, is likely to be defeated
in Kansas, his successor will be Re-

loss in the Senate down to three-one
each in New York, Illinois, and Wis
consin. And loss in Illinois is by no
means certain, as the Legislature stands
101 Republicans, 100 Democrats, two
Farmers Alliance men who were Re-

to be Republican or Farmers ALI

Mrs. Custer reports story related tc
her by a frontiersman which may be
taken as an amusing illustration of =
very solemn truth. The teller of the
story had stopped at a cabin to get d
supply of milk.
The family consisted of a mother and
several "strapping daughters As the
traveller sat by the fire the shriveled old
mother bent over the fireplace putting at
clay pipe, perfectly stolid and silent,
till one of the girls came in and stood at
the fire trying to dry her homespun dress.
Without raising herself, and in a
drawing tone, the mother said pres
emily, "Sal, there's coal under your
fut."
In no more animated tone, and with
out even moving, the daughter replied.
(which fut. nanny"
The girl had run barefoot all her life
over the shale and rough ground of that
country, and the red hot coal was some
time in making its way through the hard
surface to a sensitive tissue.
