Saved Her Sight
Another Wonder Performed by
Hoods SarsapaYiELa.

I" My little girl Hazel is now four years
old. Two years ago she had the grip. After
recovery her eyes grew infamed and sup
turated. For over Z months she had to
have her eyes bandaged and stay in dark
room. The family doctor and an oculist
did everything possible. She did not i'm
prove and even grew worse. At last after
six months he gave US the discouraging
opinion that the cornea of one eye was de-
stroyed
Ana Sight Entirely Gone.
That it was doubtful if she would ever be
able to see any with the other, as the sight
was rapidly being destroyed in that also.

A despatch from Washington says
that Superintendent Stump has decided
tp strengthen the force of immigration
inspectors at Portland, Maine, and give
the commissioner of immigration ut
Boston kind of supervision over the
work there. This action was taken he
cause Of the recent admission at Port
land, of $50. Russian immigrants of
a very undesirable class. These immi-
grants. it is said, would not have been
admitted at New York or Boston, the
officials there being more experienced.
As the rules of the Treasury Depart
nnent does not permit one commissioner
of immigration to review the action of

once PASSED are safe, unless they be-
come a public charge, when they can be
