A PECULIAR CASE.

4 Los Angeles Man Loses His SIGHT Under
Strange Circumstances.
8. G. Miller, the secretary Of the Los
Angeles board Of fire updeEWriterA felt
. sudden pain back of his eyes the other
day.
Hes pushed with both hands on his
eyeballs to ease the frightful pain, and
blood began to iooze from his eyelids,
and then the eyeballs were suddenly
protruded to the farthest limits Of the
muscles and nerves holding them, pre-.
senting an awful appearance.
When found, he was perfectly rigid,
the eyes sticking out Of their sockets an
inch or more, and he was uttering the
most heartrending cries.
The case has puzzled the doctors
greatly, a number Of theories being adj
vanced, but mono so far has been accept
cd as proved ~
Afracture Of some blood vessel back
Of the eyes is probably the cause. but
how this was brought about or why It
should have occurred simultaneously in
each eye cavity is unexplained,
The eyes themselves evidently lost all
life at once. for not only was the sigh,
completely lost. but the eyeballs rapid
~ showed signs Of degeneration, and i
became necessary to remove them. -

in it's belfry, calling the people from the
surrounding hills to worship at its affairs.
