He Was Not Born Blind,

Mr. John B. Hcrreshoff, senior member
of the firm of lIorrcshofr Bros. of Bristol,
X. l., was boln with the full use of both
eyes. From the time he was old enough
to know the use Of jackknifc he began
whiting out boats. In his fifteenth year
he built good size craft for sailing on the
bay. Then he lost his sight. A film gradu-
ally came over his eyes and finally shut
off forever the last dim glimpse Of Bristol
and her boats. But he went on building
just the samc--not, of course, us II moth
ing had happened, for his methods Of per-
ception had to be radically changed. In
stead of studying tho grace and strength
of lines by the eye, tho matter became to
Herrcshof at once a more abstract study
IA mental calculation. He had tho task
before him of carrying In his mind the
models he worked upon. The objects he
had seen with his eyes in the first Is years
of his life he could summon up into his
mind again. His sense of touch also de-
veloped to a wonderful scnsitivcness.
All the models of vessels to be built In
the mandatory arc submitted to him.
His brother Nat invariably has a tiny
model made on the lines to be pursued In
tho construction of new craft, and this
model is given to the elder brother. II the
work is of extreme Importance, the elder
Hcrrcsho1f sometimes sits for days rubbing
his hands lightly over tho model, thus get
ting perfect picture Of the lines of the
boat in his mind. Many changes suggest
themselves to him, and he works them out
with mathematical precision. In short,
he seems to have converted his misfortune
into positive advantage. York Her

How to Fire q Pistol.

1t Is q peculiar fact that very few mon,
even accomplished shots, know how ro-
volvcr ought to be handled. Nearly all ore
taught to handle q revolver as II 1t were q
rifie-that is, by bringing the object aimed
at and the fore and hind sight into lins
This is all we'll enough for shooting gal
lery practice, but should never be followed
In the field
When training troops to use the revolv-
or, they are taught, in aiming, never tn
look at the weapon at all, but to keep their
eyes on tho object to BIO struck. In quick
firing, and specially in shooting from
horseback, much better results are obtain.

A good laugh, which came near not
being laughing matter, is going around
at the expense of certain professional
gentleman of this city. For some time past
this gentleman has entertained aspirations
to become a sportsman, and finally after
duly considering the matter, he purchased
a shot gun and quantity of ammunition.
Saturday after he had seen several Of the
crack shots of the town steal quietly of
for the woods with their guns, he be-
thought himself that it would be good
day to try his new weapon. He went to
in quest of game All of u sudden there
was whir of wings and partridge flew
up directly in front of him. He was ex-
cited and by the time that he got his gun
In position to fire, the bird was long
way of. just at this moment there was
another whir and second bird arose In
view. The professional man quickly low.
cred his gun and watched bird No.
? fly o1t of sight These were all the par.
tridges he SAW for the afternoon, but later
on he did succeed in killing squirrel.
At dusk he returned to town, bringing
in his pocket the priced squirrels tail as
evidence that he could shoot game On
his way up the street the Nimrod stepped
into the office Of a friend, to show not only
his game but his new gun as we'll.
Now this friend knows gun from breech
to muzzie and has killed all kinds of
game, big and little He found that the
man with the gun had not only neglected
to take out the shells on coming into
town, but was very careless in handling
the firearm He volunteered n few Worde
Of caution but seeing they were not heed
ed, betook himself behind his desk A
moment more and there was a report, a
binding flash and the room filled with
smoke. Looking out the professional
man was discovered with bis face ashen
white blankly looking at the ceiling and
walls to see what damage he had done.
But in the floor beneath his very feet the
boards were splintered and smoking.
Tremblingly he went to his office and put
the new gun away, and now he hardly
dares look at the thing for fear of being
shot.

At some of the mosque schools each
child receives two full suits OF clothes ev-

under the government, the pupils are not
only lodged, fed and taught, but receive
also pension in money.
