Variations I'm Plants.

rTom Meenans Monthly.
1t does not seem to be generally recoe-
nized that no two trees or plants come ex-
actiy alike, any more than two individuals
among the human family might be expect
ed to be exactly alike. Indefinite and alb
solute variation seems to be a law of ma
ture. and yet much surprise is felt at varia-
tons In trees. and these variations are fire.

mon silver maple. drawings being given of
a large number of them. Those who are IA
miliar with this common tree in our coun-
try know that 1t would be just as easy to
get hundred varieties as ten
Inere Is, however, one difficulty which
VIII excuse sometimes the use of a Latin
name TO mark a conspicuous variation.
Inc common cut-leaved silver maple, for in

Eilwanger & Barry from a plant found
by Mr. Wter of Illinois. is Latinized as
Wieri. 1t Is difficult for nurserymen to de-
clde now to name these variations and
some name is certainly required under
which to introduce them. We might, to be
sure, say Browns maple. Smiths maple,
Jones maple. and SO on, but it is evident
permanent and fixed as when the Latin
form Smith,. Brownii and Jonesi would be
employed. and yet the use of these Latin
names In this way proves to be very annoy
ing ana troublesome to the systematic
botanist.

WONDERFUL FEATS OF MEMORY.

Some Minds Have n Facility for Re-
tanning Certain Glasses of Facts.
Among those who have performed great
Keats of memory Cassell's Family Magazine
mentions DR.. Fuller. author of the
Worthless of England" He could repeat
another mans sermon after hearing it
once. and could repeat 500 words in an un-
known language after hearing them twice.
He one day undertook to walk from Tenn
pie Bar to the farthest end of Cheapside
and to repeat on his return every sign on
either side of the way in the order of their
occurrence, and he did it easily. In such
feats as this the eye plays a chief part; vet
blind people also have good memories. Rev.
B. ]. Johns. chaplain of the blind asylum,
London. testifies that a large number Of
pupils learn the Psalter and that one young
man was there who could repeat not only
the whole of the 100 prayer book Psalms
and large number Of metrical psalms and
hymns, as well as considerable amount Of
modern poetry, including Goldsmith's DE
serted Village" but the whole of Millions
Paradise Lost" with marginal notes and
biography. Lord Macaulay on one occa-
sion repeated to himself the whole of Para
disc Lost while crossing the Irish channel
At another time, waiting in a Cambridge
coffee house for a postchaise, he picked up
a country newspaper containing two poet
tcal pieces-one the Reflections Of an FIX
ile'' and the other Parody on WEIGH
Ballad"-looked them once through, never
gave them a further thought for forty
years and then repeated them without the
change of a single word. Macaulay's mind
some one has said, was like dredging net
which took in all that it encountered, both
good and bad, nor ever seemed to feel the
burden. Very much unlike a dredging net
and more like a strainer, are the minds Of
some other persons who carefully select
what they will retain or have a natural ia
cility for remembering special classes Of

KEEN EYEsIGHT OF INDIANS.
But Little Color Biindne..-InGame,
Eyelfds From smoky Tepees.


DR.. Carlos Montezuma. the government
physician of the Indian school at Carlisle.
has brought to Philadelphia thirty Indian
children of both sexes for eye treatment at
the Medico-Chirurgical Hospital. says the
Press. The cases are of great interest IN
optical study, as they show just what effect
civilization has upon the eyes Of the red
skin, who is accustomed TO prairie life, with
all its freedom of action. The disease with
which the eyes Of the little band is af-
f1icted is infiamed eyelids. The smoky tepees
largely cause this trouble. and when brought
east the contagion spread throughout the
school. 1t often runs into granular lids,
with tendency to destroy the eyesight
sometimes ulcers OF the cornea get so bad
that the eye shrinks away and the eyeban
has to be removed. But the cases of the
children just brought on were not so severe
With the exception of one boy, who will pos
slbly lose one of his eyes. Upon examina-
ton IL was found that the Indian boy and
girl have one-tenth more vision than
white child They are what might be called
far sighted" Their eyes are adjusted 10
discern objects at great distances. Conse-
qnently when they are brought east and
placed in schools there is a complete change
In visual objects What they see is near at
hand. They become subject TO headaches
Que 10 the great strain caused, and disease
1ollows- An interesting feature has been
brought out in the tests for color blindness
IL has been found that the Indian has an
extremely low average of color defects
Color blindness in an Indian is very rare
About twenty OF the thirty children had
their eyes tested for glasses which they
Will only use when reading or studying DR.
Montezuma, who brought the children here,
is an Indian himself and has had a romantic
career. He is of the Apache tribe his father
being one OF the bravest of these fierce war
riors. When five years old he was carried
away captive by the Pruise Indians, who
had made war on the Apaches and later
was sold to a landscape photographer, who
TOOK him to Illinois and sent MIN TO the
state university and later to the Chicago

DIED FROM LACK OF FOOD.
Three Persons I'm the Vicinity of Pitts
burg Succumb to Starvation.

Three Persons I'm the Vicinity of Pitts
burg Succumb TO Starvation.
Within the past few days three deaths
have occurred in the vicinity Of Pittsburg
from starvation. Their names were: An
thony Dominick, an Austrian, aged sixty
years, died in Pittsburg: Mary We!smau.
daughter of Henry weisman of Allegheny.
aged three years; Mrs. Dicca Arthur, a
widow, aged fifty years, died at Homestead.
In the case of Dominick. 1t was developed
at the coroner's inquest that he. with about
forty others. Hungarians, Italians and Aus
TRANS. lived together. each man doing his
own cooking. Dominick had not worked
for two months. and for days at a time he
would have nothing to eat. On Thursday
he procured some putrid fish. and in his
half-starved condition ate of it. The man
took sick and died, none of the others pay
ing any attention to him. A verdict OF
death from starvation was rendered.
The little Weisman girl had been sick q
week. but the parents could not provide
proper food and medical treatment, and IL
was only when the child died that the
neighbors learned how distressed the fam
lily was.
Mrs. Arthur's death was caused by sick
ness and starvation. She had no one to
look after her but a twelve-year-old son,
who was himself i'll from lack of food. Her
sad condition was discovered only a few
hours before her death by two ladies who
did all in their power for the poor woman.
but 1t was too late.
