A Prehistoric Village Found.

The site of a prehistoric village has
just been discovered on the Ohio side of
the river, about one and one half miles
north of Parkersburg, w. Va. The
town site comprises an area of about four
acres, and over the entire area the earth
is generally slightly burned, having a
reddish color, and is thickly intermixed
with fragments of pottery, streaks of
ashes and fragments of bones of animals
and human beings. In several places are
TO be seen the ruins OF what seem to be
ancient fire-places, containing charcoal,
intermixcd with charred nuts of various
sorts. In and around these tire-places
are found ornaments and implements,
such as hattle-axes, belts, knives, drills,
spear and arrow points, aud ornaments
made Of bone and slate. The spear and
arrow.heads arc OF fine workmanship,
and all of very hard substances, as agate,
chalcedony, camclian, quartz, jasper and

A Nation OF Coffee Drinkers.

The United States is, without doubt,
q nation of coffee drinkers. The imports
from South America amount to over
525 ,O00,O 900 pounds annually, of Which
sixty nine per cent. comes from Brazil.
The second largest shipper to this market
is Venezuela, eleven per cent. The first
cost in this country averages ten cents
and fraction of pound, aggrcgating
$56,347, 600. The first record OF pro.
duction in Brazil begins with 1870, when
100, 900, 900 pounds were shipped to the
United States. High water mark was
reached in 1855, with 400, 900, 900 pounds
of shipments. One large item of ex-
pcnse in Brazil is to get the coffee to
market. Freight charges as high MS
fourteen cents ton mile have been
paid, which, from distant plantation
to Rio Janciro means from S1.75 to
$3.50 a sack. The highest charge from
Rio to New York is sixty five cents u

Hide aud seek is another popular
sport. The boy wholis sit doesn't cover
his'facc while the other boys are hiding
themselves, aud those who arc sought
mako no effort to conceal themselves.
They arc found by the sense of touch
after q search that seems as hopeless to
the locker on as the finding of needle
in a hnystack.
Tag and skipping the rope are played
the same way that seeing persons are ac-
customcd to play them, and barring the
accidental knocks the players get they are
highly enjoyed.
The girls find pleasure in walking
around their yard and talking and in
skipping the rope aud playing tag. How
ever, in this yard the sports are gentier
and knocks and bruises arc the exception
and not the rule.
The older boys take their exercise in
walking or in the gymnasium. You
would be surprised to know how wonder
fully we'll some blind persons can pilot
themselves around this busy town. There
arc students in this institution who walk
for miles around the city, board street
cars, cross crowded streets, ride on the
elevated roads and ferries and even
make short Journeys into the country al
most as we'll as if they were gifted with
cycsight.
One of the former students goes every
day from New Jersey, where he lives, to
Harlem and also to Columbia College on
foot and without Il guide, and sometimes
when he has time he walks down town
on the crowded West Side with no more
fear of accident than he would have in
his own ROOM
In the gymnasium the would be athlete
confines himself to dumbbell exercises,
swinging the clubs and work on the bars,
pulleys and swing. He can never box or
fence, of course, but he frequently be-
comes an expert wrestler.
AS | have explained before, there must
be certain amount of education before
a blind child can enjoy indoor sports.
The first step in this training is learning
to read and write.
Superintendent WAIT says that while
the old alphabet was in use not more than
one person out of ten could read without
great difficulty. This state of affairs led
to the creation of the present point al
phabet. The letters are made of points,
and page of a book does not look un-
like page written in the Morse tele-
graphic alphabet.
This alphabet is very easily learned and
not easily forgotten. Some of the boys
in the institution have been known to
memorizc it in less than an hour of study.
The capital letters are derived from the
small letters by affixing to each of them
us many points as will form new char
actcr, four points in length, in the fol-
lowing manner

The amusements.o of blind children are
necessarily limited in character and few
IN number. Most outdoor sports cannot
DC enjoyed by them, and those games
that are played indoors differ largely
IRON those of seeing children, either in
their construction or in their use.
One reason, perhaps, that there arc SO
lew games for blind children lies in the
fact that there are very few blind chill
;dren to play games. Those who see have
an idea that all blind persons have been
accustomed to tie loss of their eyesight
all their lives. This is in reality very
far from being the case. Superintendent
William B. Wait, who has been in charge
of the New York State Institution for the
Blind for over thirty years, told me the
-othcr day that only five per cent. of the
blind arc born without eyesight. Seven
per cent. lose their sight under the age
of ten years. Thirteen per cent. become

The simplest forms of amusement,
among the blind are skipping the rope,
playing tag and walking All of these
sports are easily learned, and they are a
means of working off the superHuous, the
animal activity, that children, whether
blind or seeing, always possess.
The playground of the New York in
stitution is admirably adapted for its
purpose. 1t is square, paved enclosure,
surrounded by Il high brick wall, and
containing nothing to stumble against.
If one wants to see how blind children
play he should visit this yard some day
during the recess hour.
At the tap of the bell the junior classes
are dismissed, and with whoop and a
hurrah and tremendous scuffling of feet,
1.-The youngsters rush ell-mell out of doors.
If on had never seen them before he
could hardly believe they were blind.
Greater confusion one never saw. At
once they are tangled in knots that seem
rs if they never could DO unrayelled, and
! no sooner are they out of one tumble
than they are in another. Finally their
cxubcnnce is expended and the games
begin. The most muscular boys prefer
laapfrog, and woe be it to the unlucky
chap who stand too near the living post

tunate if he is not rolled over on the

The Waterman then proceeded to treat

mischancc set fire to the house. Tho
building burned while the old man slept
on, and the thief came down again to

the fire spread until seventeen huts were
burned down. Tho lynch law practiccd
in Chinese villages is very severe upon

BLIND BOYS PLAYING LEAF FROG.
twenty. Thirty per cent. meet their
Eaffiiction between the ages of twenty and
fifty, and forty-tivc per cent. or nearly
half the blind persons in the world, reach
the age of fifty years before they lose
their sight.
Consequently, among the blind, chill
'dren are IN very great minority. There
is another reason why there arc few
games that blind children can play. With
the blind any movement of the hands or
,lect that is not perfectly natural is an e.
tort. A seeing child, for instance, does
a thousand things he has not been taught
by imitation. He secs his brother
dress himself, and initiates him without
amy conscious cffo:t on his part He
watches other children at their work and
in their play, and without knowing how
he acquires the knowledge, he learns to
do as they are doing.
The little blind boy has not this facul-
ty. He cannot dress himself until he
has been taught by many patient lessons
how it shall be done. Learning to but
ton his shirt up in front is the work of
days and perhaps of weeks. He cannot
even cat as other children cen without
going through long and tedious period
of instruction. And some blind children
whose parents are over indulgent to them
do not learn to walk until they are five
or six years old.
Several years ago pupil was brought
t&ir. Wait who was eight years old and
could not walk a single step. He could
not read Or write and his hands were of
little more use to him than the chubby
fingers of II baby. Mr.. Wait declined to
receive the helpless boy, and told his
father to bring him back when he could
walk. 1t was TWO years before he saw
the child again, and even then, in spite
OF the careful training he had received
during that time, the little fellow was
only able to toddle few steps at time.
This time, however, he was received,
and in the course of years he learned to
walk and run, but he never played as
other children do.
This is an unusual case, but there are
instances almost as painful every year,
and even where the blind children are
given every advantage OF trimming their
parents can afford they are very far from
beng self helpful when they are ad-
mitted to the institution.
One can readily understand that such
cnlidrcn cannot share the amusenicnts OF
seeing children, and you can realize how
ditiicult it has been to devise any games
for them that do not tire them to learn
more than they amusc them.
Still blind children are no less fond of
