an official census taken Of the blind Of

islands, have less than 5000 persons who
are totally bereft of sight. In the Cau-
casus the women, especially those Of
country districts. are more liable to ce-

In Poland there are twenty-five blind

The revenue cutter Hartley saved an
other life early Thursday morning in San
Francisco. About 4 a. M, after making
the rounds OF the sugar boats from Homo
lulu that had just arrived and changing
the watch on the other vessels In the
harbor, the Hartley was returning to her
station at Meggs' wharf, when Chief En-
gineer MacLennigan and Boarding Oficer
Joseph Harkey heard cries OF distress.
The steamer was turned In the direction
Of the cries and In few moments man
,linging to life buoy was discovered
and hshed out of the bay. He proved to
be sailor named 0. Anderson. Ander-
son said that he had deserted from the
British ship Thistle. lying in the stream
ready for sea. He had no kit when taken
out to the ship by the shipping master
and not even blanket to cover him In
his bunk in the forecastle, SO he had de-
cided to desert. Cutting life buoy from
It's fastenings and placing his arms
through the loop ropes he had jumped
into the bay unnoticed by the anchor
watch. Anderson was pretty well intoxi-
Gated when he struck the wnter but two
hours or more floating around had sobered
him up. He was fast drifting down the
bay and out to sea when the Hartley for
tunately came along and picked him up.
The sailor was landed at. Meigg's wharf.
where boatman took him into his cabin
and let him dry his clothes before his
fire. The sailor boarding house keeper
who had shipped Anderson and received
part OF his $40 advance money. made a
diligent and unsuccessful search for him.
AS Anderson kept well in hiding II is
probable that the Thistle Will have to
