ALPHABET ON TWlNE.
How Facts and Ideas Have Been Recorded
on Cord by Blind Men.

ON Cord by Blind Men.
Many years ago two men in Edin-
burgh, Robert Milne and David Mac
heath. whe were both blind, invented
an alphabet of knots tied upon a string,
which was not only Of a simple nature,
but capable of expressing ideas of the
most abstruse kind and of recording
facts Of any description. This inven
ton was quite original; neither of the
Inventors had ever heard either Of the
Peruvian quipos or the Jewish cords.
In their efforts they were only guided
by a desire Of producing something
which might be useful 10 their breth-
rel in the same unfortunate condition
and OF communicating at a distance
with each other.
This string alphabet was a great deal
more simple than those of the Peru
vians. The twenty-six letters of the
alphabet are divided into seven classes,
proceeding straightforward from A to
z Each class consists of four letters,
with the exception of the first class,
which comprehends but two. The first
four letters, or A b G ID, are each
formed by a large round knot; the
second four, or Z FIG III. by a knot
projecting from the string; the third
four, or ii X l., by a knot vulgarly
called a drummer's plat; the fourth
four, or NJ MOP. by "A simple moose;
the fifth four, or Q RST, by a moose
with a string drawn through it; the
sixth four, or WV Y, by a moose
with a net knot formed upon il; aud
the seventh class, or Y aud z, by q
twisted Thus, there are Just
seven different kinds of knots TO indi-
cate the whole letters of the alphabet.
But to distinguish each Of the four
letters in n class from the others, the
expedient vas adopted of adding a
common small knot at a lesser or great
or distance from the letter to which it
belongs. BY this the letter A is indi-
Gated only by the knot of the class to
which il belongs; Il * the same knot
repeated. but close 10 il IS small com
mon knot; Z is the same knot repeat.
ed, with the small knot half an inch
distant, and Dis the same knot repeat
cd. with the small knot an inch dis
tant.
The same plan goes Oh throughout;
% that, By first feeling the kind Of
knot, aud then feeling whether il has
small knot attached, and al what dis
lance, any letter IA be instantly told.
The length of this string alphabet is
Little more than three feet, and any
blind individual with the ordinary
ssnse of touch may learn the whole in

AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION.
The Statistician Finds That Agriculture IL
Under a Cloud All Over the World.

The Statistician Finds That Agriculture is
Under a Cloud All Over the World.
WASHINGTON, March 22.-The prevail
ing depression in American agriculture
is treated by the statistician, J. r.
Dodge. in the March report of 5ne De-
partment of Agriculture. The prevalence
of low prices is noted and feeling Of
encouragement in rural circles through
out the world is indicated. 1t
is, and has been, especially severe
in Great Britain, and is the sub
ject of complaint, discussion and
official investigation in Germany, France,
Italy and other countries. 1t is present
in Monarchies and Republics, under di-
verse circumstances and economic sys-
TENS. But it is less severe here than in
other countries. Though the price Of
implements, utensils and fabrics are
all low, the farmers interest account is
unreduced and his mortgage harder to
lift.
The main cause of low prices is re-
ferred to the memorable law of supply
and demand. Corn and wheat and other
staples are cheap because Of overproduc-
ton. immigration has increased the
population five millions in ten years.
IDtercontinental areas have been con-
verted into farms, free to natives and
foreigners, opening millions of acres to
cultivation. Railroad extension has
stimulated production and overwhelmed
the East with Western products.

ANOTHER COLLAPSE.
The Scene of the Indianapolis Calamity
Again Visited.


INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March a0.-About
one o'clock yesterday afternoon the
wall of the Becker block, adjoining the
burned Bowen-Nerrill building,
crushed down on top of the ruins of
Monday evenings fire. For time the
widest rumors of disaster were afoas
and before they were set at rest large
portion OF the city's inhabitants had
thronged into the adjacent streets and
alleys After full investigation, how
ever, it was learned that but two men
had been hurt though many had mar
row escapes Those injured were but
slightly hurt
After the crash Mayor Sullivan in
spected the ruins and ordered that the
front wall of the Bowen-Merrill build
ing be torn down This was done and a
half hour later the Becker building. a
narrow fourstory structure, occupied by
a notion store, fell down in a heap.
Then the flames broke out again in the
ruins and up to ten o'clock had not been
wholly extinguished, though a food
of water has been poured into
the piles of yreckage. There is,
however, no fear of further loss of life,
though the three story stone front build.
ing occupied by George W. Sloan. drug
gist. is regarded as unsafe and there ara
fears that the dry goods house of II. p
WATSON NAV also succumb.

gree. All wires south are Frustrated by

MINERS PERISH.


Lost.
HURLEY, Wis, March e0-A great fire
Is raging in the Germania mine and
threatens heavy loss of property. Five
miners, penned in the burning mine,
have persisted. All efforts to stay the
flames have proven unsuccessful
Atabout midnight fire was discovered
in No. shaft at third level in the Ger
mania mine. The alarm was quickly
given to the force of men at work in the
mine, but in spite of their efforts to
escape five of the men at work between
the fifth and sixth levels in the same
shaft were cut off. The men are James
Thomas, his son Joseph Thomas. Hugh
Waller, James Sullivan and William
Banks, all miners
The FIRE burned fiercely and soon found
its way to the surface and destroyed the
shaft house and threatened the engine
and boiler house. The entire timbering
of the shaft and roof in that part of the
mine will doubtless be destroyed.
As soon as it became known that sew
eral men were in the burning shaft,
searching parties were organized and
sent in the mine to rescue the missing
men or to find their bodies. Waller
came to the surface once and returned
to look for his companion and there is
no doubt that he suffocated and fell
down the shaft.
The bodies Of Thomas and his SON
were found shortly before noon on the
fourth level near No. shaft Could
they have gone twenty-five feet further
they would have been saved.
The loss will reach about 500, 600.

Won Csprivi Appointed to Succeed the Iron
Chancellor More Gossip as to the Resig-

BERLIN, March 20-General Won Ca
priv, commander of the Tenth army
corps, has been appointed Chancellor of
the Empire, to succeed Prince Bismarck.
1t is announced that Herr Won
Boettcher will become President of the
Prussian Ministry and that Count Eu-
lenburg, Governor of Hesse Nassau, will
succeed Won Boetticher as Imperial Min
lister of the Interior. Count Herbert
Bismarck. who persists in resigning his
post of Imperial Foreign Minister, will
be assigned to an ambassadorship.
Ministers Herrfurth and Won Mays
bath have resigned, the latter because
of Prince Bismarck support against the
increased demand for strategetic COM
munications
General Won Caprivi's duties as Chan
cellor will not, however, include the di-
rection of the Foreign Ministry as during
Prince Bismarck's Chancellorship.
1t is stated that the Emperor William
intimated his intention to abolish the
Office of President of the Prussian Min
istry, which proposal Prince Bismarck
stoutly opposed. The disagreement be-
tween the Emperor and the Chancellor
becoming wider the Kaiser asked for
another interview at ten o'clock in the
evening. To this request Prince Bis
marck replied that he was too old man
to come at that hour. Shortly there
after the Chancellor formally rendered
his resignation.
Prince Bismarck, in his notice to the
which note covers twenty pages, al
legged that old age and failing health
Were his reasons for desiring to with
