An Extraordinary Blind Man.

'You talk about your extraordinary
cases Of blind men," said II prominent
oculist to me yesterday, al have discov-
cred one who SURPRISES MI hitherto men
Toned in medical works. He is Julius
Stern, who runs II billiard saloon and to-,
bacco store on Third avenue. Twelve
years ago he WINS IL well known athlete
md carried oil many prizes in the cham
pionship field. During race one day he
met with n serious accident, was carried
to hospital, and left il when totally
blind. He hnd artificial eyes inserted,
and to look Mt him no ono in the world
would know of his ailliction. lie attends
to four billiard tables, tips all the cues,
sells cignrs and tobacco, and can tell ali
the different brands and makes change as
quickly as one possessing sight. He has
never yet been known to make mistake.
Stranger than all, he can play billiards;
not, OF course, n regular game, but, by
placing bnlls nj either end of the table,
he can play many difficult shots. Ho
made bet, one dry last week, that he
would walk from his store to the City
Hall, dine in restaurant and board an
uptown "L" road train without using a
stick or even pausing u moment. Io
won the bet, and although he met hum
drcds OF people, not one could tell that ho
was blind. "-Ncw York Star.

The part of the buoy seen above water
is much the smallest portion of it.
What seems to be the surface of n round
raft on the waters level is the upper part
of great watcr-tight hull, which floats
the framework above. Hanging below
this is big iron ball for ballast; and two
great iron chains, hanging from either
side Of the hull to keep it balanced
properly. converge to one down deep in
the water, making delightful subma-
rinc swing for the watcr-b bibles, if they
were to cushion it with IL seawccd pill
low. Then, last Of all, on the ocean
bottom is the great stone sinkcr, which
holds the whole thing firmly anchored.
There seems something uncanny in the
sight of bell-buoy, swaying and bow
ing in solitude in the great PLAN of hcav-
ing waters, and never ccasing its high,
sweet, melancholy ringing. One might
imagine the mcrmcn had hand in it.
Then there are the buoys which simply
indicate the coast highways and
thoroughfares-thc glistening black ones,
and the long, red spars that look like
the claws of some huge lobster of which
the sea gods have been dining. Red
buoys to port, and black to starboard, or
vice versa according to the vessels dircc-
ton, and there is the channel marked out
to the stcersman as plain as if plowcd
white, like the foamy wake his own
vessel leaves behind
The launching of buoy is no light
matter, when it is considered that the
mere sinkers weigh two or three tons,
while those for bell and canbuoys are
often of five tons weight. But the stanch
little derrick, which is part of the tenders
outfit, grasps the iron ring that is boltcd
through the sinkcr, and easily swings the
great granite block up into the air, and
deposits it gently Mt the vessels edge, to
be lcvercd off by the crews handspikes,
when the buoy is put in place
There is n huge splashing when this
great monster takes his downward plunge,
and no doubt there is much astonishment
among the fnny fry, if not disturbance
to their housekeeping arrangements.
Then the buoy bobs and jerks frantically
for moment, and, subsiding, becomes
one OF the many ocean milcstoncs
Then there are the "spindlcs"-bea.
cons placed on dry land, and requiring,
therefore, less oversight. They are tall
iron poles, with circular framework
atop, the whole riveted to the solid rock.
Many weary sea bird finds them well
come perches after blowing adrift for
dreary leagues over storm tossed ocean,
unblesscd by a sight of rock pinnacle, or
even mast of vessel.
There are warnings done in paint
circles and stripes of cleaning white
aloft on rocky harbor entrances-which
sailors easily recognize as marking the
left or right of the entrance, as desig-
mated on their charts.
