Invited Abroad On Deliver an Addr~ss O
Teaching Deaf Msses.
For years past the fact has been recornized
abroad that America IL FAR ahead Of ali o,hsr
nations in its treatment and education Of the
blind and the deaf and dumb. This N we'll al
tested BY The fact that whenever any move I'm
advance along these lines in foreign countries

uon TO go abroad and 90 aid . foreign institu-
ton with suggestions and counsel.

The methods pursued at Kendall Green
might almost be called q compromise or q CON-

testimony before the royal commission on edu-
cauon OF the deaf and blind. Il being admitted

were far in advance Of those in England The
hberality OF the government, federal and state
IN tins country Was taken an example 20 in
duce the British government TO make some
similar provisions. Up 10 the present time the
British government has done nothing for the
education Of the deaf at public expense.
ENGLISH OPPOSITION.
This royal commission made its report in dus
time TO the crown, and something more than a
year ago bill was introduced into parliament
and passed in the house OF lords providing for
the general education OF the deaf in Great
Britain. The measure is meeting with some
opposition, and q national association of ed
ucated deaf mutes is taking great interest in
the matter, trying to do what Il can 20 promote

Death fastened by Cigarette Smoking.

DIR. Heman B. Smith, well-known physician
Of Westville, Conn.,, died of pneumonia few
days ago, and there is no doubt that his death
was superinduced by excessive cigarette smok-
ing. DIR. Smith was a cigarette fend. He
smoked between sixty and seventy cigarettes
day. He had one In his mouth constantly all
day, and arose in the night to crafty his
passion for them. When he called on patient
he left a lighted cigarette in his vehicle and
resumed smoking it after his call. At lodge
meetings he often quilted the room, went out
Of doors and smoked one or more cigarettes,
He became pale, and then he told his friends
that if a severe malady attacked him probably
it would cause his death. His system had be-
come devitalized on account Of the habit. He
was young.

NOT DEAD AFTER ALL.
He Joined in the Search for His Own Muir.
derer.

derer.
A Wilkesbarre paper published a graphic
story yesterday about the finding of the dead
body OF Charles Fox in the woods at Hunts
vile. 1t was claimed that the man had been
murdered. Detectives, constables and hun
dreds of other people went to the scene for the
purpose Of running down the murderer. Some
farmers who were busy in the fields stopped
work to join in the search. Fox is a subscriber
to the paper that published the story, and no
one was more surprised than himself when he
read it at the breakfast table. When he saw so
many people quitting work to look for his muir
derer he put on his hat and joined the crowd,
few knew him, but the majority didn't.
When he reached the scene OF the alleged muir
der he mounted an old tree stump and said:
''Men, go back to your work. am Charles
Fox. am not dead, but alive"
AT first the crowd thought that the man was
a lunatic and was inclined to poke fun at him.
but his identity was soon established. Then he
was congratulated, and q hearty laugh went up
from the crowd.

steep railway Grades.

In the mountain gorges of the
West grades of 400 and 500 feet to the
mile are met. The greatest inclination
on any European railroad worked by
ordinary locomotives is on the two
miles between Enghien and Mont
morency, near Paris, being 45 feet
in 1000, or an angle of 2 degrees
8 minutes. Grades of 35 feet to the
1000, or 3 degrees, are found on
several roads. The grade of the Sim
plon road, the highway road over the
Alps with the least slope, in only de-
grees to the 1000, the maximum slope
that can be travelled on o highway be-
ing 1872, or II degrees. The grades on
cable or cog-wheel railways are, of
course, considerably greater; that of
the road up the Swiss Rigi from Wiz
man is in the steepest part $50 to ], 600,
while the maximum on the Mount
Washington Railroad is estimated at
$50 and 375, this latter being the
,teepest railway with central toothed
rail, and the steepest of any kind in
the world. except the cable road up
the cone OF Mount Vesuvius, which
has the extraordinary inclination of
$50 to 1000. In time the tops OF
nearly all mountains within the
beaten routes of travel will have rail-
way tracks to their tops, as in several
cases in the Alps and in Pixies Peak.

In the endless and ceaseless round
of change in the combinations of the
elements of matter, the physical form
of man is as nothing. Byron defines
life as "a confused noise between two
silences-birth and DEATH" We are
shadows pursuing shadows, our spirit
ual natures being the only unchanging
and continuous entities. AS Emerson
puts it: "You are you and ] am /.
and we are conscious of being nothint
else. If we accept the theory that the
heavenly bodies grow by accretions of
eosmic dust which is floating every
where in ethereal space, portion of
the dust of Solomon or imperial Caesar
may now be ON the surface of Jupiter
or in the sun and other portions on
still remoter orbs, earth in it's rapid
fight of sixty-eight thousand miles an
hour having parted with some of these
royal ashes. Thoughts and ideas are
the only realities, the only permanent
and unchanging phenomena. Men and
nations with all their buzzing and
humming activity are as feeting as the
ripples on summer sea. The little
ness and powerlessness of man are
ever present thoughts to the philoso-
pher, The brightest is only ray of
sunshine soon to disappear in the COM
ing gloom of night. You are only q
phantom of nothingness and yonr
trivial life is quickly ended in dream
less and forgotten sleep. Earthly life
is now and evermore will be the same
brief but unequal struggle with OBJ
1ivion

Now They See.

The Republican party went before the
country last fall On the Mckinley BILL
1t was overwhelmed by the most au-
dacious and malignant misrepresenta-
tions from which an American political
party ever suffered. Two Republican
State conventions have been held since
that defeat. The Republicans of Ohio
unanimously nominated for Governor
the father of the measure which caused
the disaster to the party. The other
State convention - Iowa-declares its
uncompromising allegiance to the great
principles of protection in general, and
the Mckinley bill in particular. These
Endorsements have an unmistakabie sig
nificance. Interpreted, they mean that
the Republican party has not receded
one step from it's historical position on
the tariff question; that the party will
stand or fall by the Mckinley measure;
that the party has lost none of its ag-
gressiveness by temporary reverses, and
that it will go before the people of this
country next year and ask for their YER
dict ON the fruits Of that bill which has
been under such a ceaseless fire of
partisan Misrepresentation. We have
no fear of the verdict. The peoples
eyes have been opened since Noyem-
Der, 1890.
