ONE CAUSE OF COLOR BLINDNESS.
The Excessive Use of Tobacco Found Re-

The Excessive Use of Tobacco Found Re-
sponsibio In Some Cases.
The parliamentary committee appointed
In Great Britain to examine the subject of
color blindness, particularly in it's relation
to marine and railway signaling, have
made an exceedingly interesting report.
They find that in the male population
nearly per cent are either partially or
wholly deficient in the ability to distin-
guish rightly the primary colors of the
spectrum. The tests were made with great
care under the guidance of specialists
whose scientific knowledge afforded guar
antee of accurate and trustworthy investi-
CATION. ..i.- ..... .
Because Berlin wool presents to the eye
rough and nonrefecting surface, the
colors of which are not heightened nor
dulled by the light in which it is displayed,
that substance was selected for testing the
eyes. From miscellaneous heap of skeius
of various cOlors the person submitting to
test was required to select approximate
matches for certain test colors. 1t was
found that blindness to red was the most
common form of deficiency; blindness to
green was the next in frequency. Since
experiment has proved that red and green
are the two colors found to be the most
trustworthy for signaling purposes, on ac-
| count oil thelr superior luminosity anu
! their visibility at considerable distances,
the fact that these are the two colors
which color blind persons are most apt to
mistake is u matter of the first impor.
| lance.
The committee found that the persons III
responsible positions in the marine aud
railway service, where accuracy in deter
| mining color is essential to safety and eli
ciency, could not be trusted to read tho
signals correctly. This condition of thing
possibly furnishes the explanation of many
disasters on sea and land which have hitlr
erto been deemed mysterious, and it Ger
tainly indicates the necessity for n thorough
test of the eyes of engineers, pilots, signal
men and others who are intrusted with
the movement of trains and of water craft.
As to the causes Of color blindness. tho
committee report that in the greater mum.
Der of instances it proceeds from congenitnl
defects that cannot be remedied, but it il
frequently the result of excessive use Of
tobacco. This is IL hint worth remember
ing on the part of those who may becom,
aware of their inability to distinguish
colors. As every day in the year thousand
of lives and millions of dollars worth o
property are dependent for safe keeping
upon the accurate reading of colors by per
locomotives, the knowledge of the risk in
yolved should lead to thorough examina
. ton and the wedding out of those found il
this particular to have defective eyesight

MEEKER, Colo, Oct. 81.-Trouble with
the Utes is expected. Taking advantage
of the removal of the troops from Fort
Duchesne, the White River Utes have
left their reservation and are camped on
the head of Spring Creek, about thirty
miles below Meeker and about forty
miles from the reservation. The bold
and defiant manner in which they ara
conducting themselves alarms the set
tiers, who fear repetition of the out
break of 1887. The infantry has left
for Duchesne, and the fact that the
cavalry are to leave on the 10Th of next
month has caused the Indian agent and
his subordinates to send in their resig-
nations to take effect at once. Two
Rangely cattiemen arrived from Dong
lass Creek today, and report about ninety
savages on Spring Creek and 900 more
on Douglass The citizens of this county
are determined to drive the Utes out and
stop the wholesale killing of game.

Honor Of the Event.
BERLIN, Oct. st.-1hs speech Of EN-
peror William al The celebration this az
tsrnoon will DO Of a political religious
nature. 1t will touch gingerly on the
relations Of church and state, and will
emphasize bis opinion that evangelical
monarehs, notably Of the house Of
Hohsnzollern, have always made the
protection of religious liberty and tolera-
ton of heterodoxy one of the most con-
spicuous features of their domestic mol
icies. Should the emperor make the last
mentioned avowal unequivocally he will
discourage the Lutheran zealots, who
are trying to drive Professor Harnack
from the chair of theology in Berlin uni
versity because he does not believe in
the immaculate conception.
The city of Wittemberg is decorated
magnificently in honor of the days
anniversary; TriumRhal arches are
erected at the Elster Thor and the Aug
usteum and the Collegian strasse. Lu
theirs house, Melancthon's house, the
electoral palace, the infantry barracks
and the whole market place are trimmed
with great masses of flags and bunting
Luther's bust is in every shop window
and his picture is hung on nearly every
private house. Despite the chi1liness Of
the weather hundreds of peasants who
walked to the city yesterday wer,
obliged to sleep last night in the fields OF
in temporary sheds. Hotels and houses
! are OVERLOOKING.
DIR. Luther, Berlin physician, de
scended froiu the great reformer repre-
sents the Luther famils at the consecre
tation service. The mayors of Hamburg

the old free cities. Lutheran churche
throughout Germany were crowded a
all services yesterday, and all Lutheral
clergymen preached reformation da
sermons.

TIE registration OF the voters OF
Delaware ia completed-Gr at least the
time has gone by for more resistra-
itions and those who are now left un-
Registered will have to remain so. The
registration in this city reached the
high tide OF l4,6l6 OF whom 1885,
though registered, remain yet to quail
Ify to vote. Many of these have yet to
pay their taxes and others to get out
their naturalization papers. OF the
whole number registered l2,3SO are
white and 2l2O are colored. In regard
to nativity l,952 are natives, and 2523
are foreign born. The registration ex'
ceeds the whole vote in the city OF two
years ago by 1890, and indicates vote
at the coming election Of not less then
,h3, 500. ..-".5 - -..-....
This is none too large for a popula
ton such as Wilmington has, indeed
the vote would have been but normal
had 1t reached 1900. In this large
registration, larger in Republican
, wards, the Republicans have the great,
, est hope of having larger majority
sthan the city ever gave. Let Republl
loans take hope and push on the work
regardless OF Democratic roorback'
: and Misrepresentation.
