keeulstions for aad Requirements OF
Enlistsd Hen In the Service.
An enlisted man serving on the from
tier has opportunities for sport that
would be envied by hundreds o;
wealthy men. especially in the way OF
hunting and fishing. He plays all kinds
Of outdoor games. Is regular In his
habits. has stated times for meals and
for sleep. which all tend to the devel-
opment Of his physical powers. and the
training he receives straightens his
frame and gives him an easy, upright
carriage that never after leaves him un-
til old age lays the weight Of its hand
upon him. The post exchange is fitted
up with billiard room. lunch counter and
card room. Only the best grades Of beer
are sold there. and drunkenness can
not exist under present restricted rules.
A pleasant room is always set aside as
a reading room, where current newspa-
pers are on file. and in addition to this
each company usually maintains
library. A post school is maintained
for six months of the year, where he
may improve his mental condition II he
desires. He is provided with excellent
clothing, which. when altered to it
neatly. is the nattiest uniform known.
A drunkard or other questionable char
acter may possibly creep in among the
men enlisted, but he is soon spotted"
and under the law that five previous
convictions by courts martial are SUI
ficient to award dishonorable discharge.
he is soon gotten rid Of. 1t Is creditable
to the army that all men now serving
in the ranks, except possibly few left
, over from the old army, are capable of
reading and writing the English Ian:
guage, that is, In limited sense. To
enter the service a man must submit
| q certificate Of character from his last
employer. and in many other ways sat-
isfy the examining officer that he Is
! worthy young man. II he be intelli-
gent, his services are sought by the diff
ferent department chiefs as clerk, or
in some other capacity. The new law
/ which allows any enlisted man of two
| years service to apply for examination
with a view to securing a commission
has already induced many bright young
men to enter the ranks. II the people
can only be prevailed upon to cast aside
the prejudice which has blinded their
judgment of the army for the past 20
years. our young men will be only too
willing to enlist, and enjoy the benefits
that accrue during a three years term
Of service.

Men to Whom the Loss Of Vision
Seemed to be UnimpOrtant.
A unique career was recently
brought to close in the suburbs Of
great American city. 1t was that Of
man totally blind from early childhood
who, by force Of an inflexible will, had
succeeded in becoming scientific
anatOmist.
Although deprived Of sight, he train
ed himself by muscular exercise to
be an athlete. The loss of one sense
only strengthened his determination
to preserve all his other faculties in
the freshness of perfection. His own
success in muscular exercise brought
q group Of young men around him, and
before he was 81 years old he was
training master for athletic sports Of
every sort He opened a gymnasium
with apparatus designed to carry into
practice theories Of his own respecting
the development of the human body.
He taught large classes, led in ex-
erciscs of all kinds. and performed the
most difficult featS with unerring ac-
curacy. His facility in using the ap-
paratus and moving about the gymna-
! SUM was amazing. Visitors could
hardly be convinced that the expert
/ and fearless teacher was absolutely
SiGhtleSS.
His gymnasium was gradually con-
verified into a school of health. BY ply
steal exercises conducted under his SUI
pervision. he undertook to remedy de-
! fOrmities of the body, and to cure pa
| tientS afflicted with diseases of lungs.
digestion and diSOrdered nerves. He
became in fact. if not in title physi-
| clan of recognized skill, and applied
many original theories to the treat
/ ment Of diseases. devOting the best
years Of his life to a minute study OF
! the mechanism Of the human body,
with a view to remedying the physical
defects of other men.
Whether it is the blind boat builder
designing the finest yachts or the bllnd
entomOlOgist making scientific discOv-
cries, or the blind statesman discuss
ing in parliament the intricacies OF H.
nance and conducting the labOriOus ex-
ecutive department. only the most
resolute natures can win such vic
tories as these.
Mr.. Fawcett. when he met with an
accident in his youth by which he lost
his sight. was a student with an ar
dent ambition for public life. A weak
er nature would have given up the
first fight as hopeless. but with I'M
fiinching courage he followed the ca
reer he had marked out for himself.
He continued his study Of political
economy By the aid of other mems
eyes: trained his memory until he
could carry complex tables Of stats
ties as easily as other men could read
the figures from the printed page. and
achieved great distinction as a uni
yersity professor and political lead
err. So complete was his conquest OF
infirmity that Mr. Gladstone was the
only man who could rival him in par
lament in the exposition Of statistical
questions.
II we'll remember" wrote Mr.. Pres
colt, the historian. 1.-The blank despair
which I felt when my literary treas
| ures arrived and I saw the mine OF
wealth lying around me which was
forbidden to explore" He was vir-
tually blind, but with uncOnQuerable
patience he went on with his work
year after year.

ograph had stopped for a while. In the afternoon, at three o'clock, the north ern sky showed unmistakable signs of water" and Dr. Berson decided that he must descend more rapidly. After a few more gentle ups and downs, he could distinguish the noise and steam whistles of some large town. When two hundred and fifty metres high there appeared at last below him the gray earth, covered by a cloudy sky Now, with the drag-strap, the balloon passed over lake, and presently land ed, with the help of some countrymen who came up, at 9:45 p. m., on stub- ble field at Shonwohld, in the west of Kiel, on the very evening when the Ger man emperor the founder of the Phoe- nix, happened to be staying in that city.
 The ascent of the balloon had taken two hours and twenty minutes; the de- scent full three hours The most inn portant results were as follows: l. The arrival at a greater height than was ever reached before; 2. The ascertain ing of an unusually low temperature at that height, and a much greater lower ing of the temperature between fifteen hundred metres and ninety-two hun dred metres than was ever before &C., cepted for the winter; g. A change of temperature mornings and evenings till the height of fifteen hundred metres; 4. Relatively very weak insulation even at the greatest height; 5. Humidity in the highest regions, and fine mist in the sky to the enormous height of more than ten thousand metres; 6. Snowflake structure of the cirrus clouds at nine thousand metres; 2. Tremendous in- crease of the swiftness of the wind up- ward, for, with almost perfect calm on the surface of the earth, more than three hundred and ten kilometres were made in five hours seventeen minutes which gives medium swiftness of six teen and one-half metres per second.

The Dealings Were Characterised by a
 Cheerful Feeling,


 New York, Feb, 21.-A cheerful feeling characterized the dealings at the stock exchange, but, as on previous days of the week, the volume of business was small Some changes were noted, espe- cially in Tobacco, Lead and Bay State Gas. The first named advanced $ to SS55, dropped to S45s and later rallied to S7B@%, TATTOO shares having been dealt in. The decline was attributed to llquidations by local insiders Lead rose to 29A and dropped to 27@A on the announcement that action on the dividend on the common had been de- ferred until the dividend on the prefer red is earned in 1885 The company has q surplus on hand of $6O2,O and lacks $S71, 900 to meet the dividend on the pre- ferred. Bay State Gas fell from 161a to 14M and recovered to 16.
 Distillers, on the other hand, moved up from 10 to Il on,the favorable report of the experts filed with Judge Gross- cup. Chicago Gas and American Sugar were quiet and firm throughout. The railway list was neglected at the open ing, but subsequently, gained strength and advanced 4 to 1as per cent. The market was favorably influenced by the phenomenal success of the new govern ment bond loan and a general belief that there will be no congressional in- terferenee in either financial or railway matters at this late day.
 In the last hour of business there was some evening up of contracts on. ac- count of to-morrow's holiday, and a re-, cession of S to 1 per cent. ensued. Jer- sey Central, however, fell 19s to S24, Long Island Traction dropped to and rallied to 71s@6Ms There is some talk of assessing the stock per cent. to meet pressing obligations.
 The market closed rather weak in tone. Net changes show gains of 1s@% per cent. Tobacco and Northwest lost 1a per cent, Jersey Cenrtal 5s and Lead 116 per cent, Consolidated Gas rose 11a to .i3119s The new government fours were advanced to 119 There were no new developments and the street devot- ed its time to making conjectures as to the allotments of the bonds on Satur- day. While nothing definite was known 1t was thought that London and the continent will secure at least $40, ,O0O, ,OO0 of the new issue, Firms prominently Identified with bringing about the so- called premium on gold, according to the gosslps, will be discriminated against.

The Telenhone ln Coren .

In his new published work, 'Corea, Mir. Henry Savage Landor tells tale of the telephone, Some months before he arrived Seoul foreigner had visit ed the king soliciting orders for install lations of telephones. The king, being much astonished and pleased at the wonderful invention, immediately at great expense, set about connecting by telephone the tomb of the queen doWag- CT with the royal palace. Many hours day were afterwards spent by his majesty and his suite in listening at their end of the telephone, and watch man was kept all night in case the queen dowager should wake up from her eternal sleep But not message, or sound, or a murmur, even, was heard. The king was disgusted and the telephone was condemned as fraud by his majesty of Chosen,
