1t Grsdes Blind ana Deaf Helen Adams
Keller.

Helen Adams Keller. though she has
been totally blind and deaf from infan-
cy, meets life in sunny spirit and
keeps herself in touch with all that is
going on in the world, even more so
than many bright girls Of her age who
are blessed with all their senses. She
was born June 22, 1880, at Tuscum-
bia, Ala, and was as bright as any baby
until after she recovered from brain fe-
ve- three years later. This deprived her
of sight and hearing, but did not affect
her brain, which is marvelously active
and acute. Her case is Of extreme inter-
est to psychologists, exemplifying as she
does the wise provision Of nature who
has compensated her for her lost senses
with intensified mental and perceptive
faculties.
1t was in 1887 that Miss Annie M.
Sullivan, who had partly recovered her
own sight, became Helen's teacher, and
it is due to her painstaking care that she
has advanced SO rapidly. At that time
she did not know that speech existed.
After being two years with Miss Sulli-
van, under whose tuition she made rap
i'd strides, she entered the Perkins in
stitution Of Boston, where Laura Bridg-
man was taught, and soon became the
star pupil
At first she acquired the deaf mute
alphabet and learned to understand by
feeling Of the fingers Of her instructor
as she formed letters. Next she learned
to read printed words, mastering the
raised alphabet, capitals and small let
ters, in one day. When she was able to
write by moving her pencil along
grooved lines, her delight knew no
bounds. Helen finally learned to articu-
late and now can speak as freely and
fully as any one. She has a deep, rich
voice, resembling that Of Miss Ada
Rehan. When she wishes to converse at
length with friend. she places one
finger across the lips of the speaker and
another on the throat at the larnyx In
this way she understands perfectly
Some unknown instinct tells her ev-
erything. Though perfectly deaf, she
can readily distinguish the footsteps of

There must be, in addition to forgive

Christ not to appease the wrath of God,

square opening in a pasteboard and dis
tribute to the members corks of differ

Explain that the task before them is to
cut the corks SO that they will fit the
square opening without measuring the
opening judging entirely by the eye.
The one whose cork fits the best should
receive some slight prize. Selected.

In small Junior societies it has some
times been found best not to divide the
society into committees, but to appoint
simply the chairmen Of the usual COM
mittees, requesting each chairman to
consider the entire society his commit

and short sightedness of the men who

and short sightedness of the men who
control it,"
As the readers of the NEW MExIoAN's
Geographic columns we'll know, Hon.
John H. Mitchell, who for years has rep
resented Oregon in the United States
senate as Republican and is recognized
as one of the shrewdest political observ
ers in the land, goes much further than
the Denver organ of Senators Teller and
Wolcott. He says in so many plain.
| words: 81 am afraid the Democratic
party will make concessions to the silver
men in the platform adopted at the next
national convention. If it does, despite
all its past mistakes, it will sweep the
country. If neither party gives silver
the recognition it deserves, new party
will spring up that will sweep the country
| like wild fire."
No permanent new silver party will
spring up; the Democratic party will SO
squarely and honestly meet the views of
silver men, both in it's candidates and
platform, that no new party will be need
ed or desired; nor will the Republican
party, which is as largely anti-silver as
the Democratic party is pro-silver, even
approximate the views and requirements
of sincere silver men either in its candi-
dates or platform. This is already writ
ten on the wall in letters 80 large and
distinct that any school boy can read and
understand them. The issue is already
about made up. The Democratic ma
tional convention, controlled by the great
west and the south, will nominate silver
and revenue reform Democrat on a silver
platform; the Republicans will nominate
probably New Yorker, with all that the
words imply, on milk and water plat
form that will sndeavor to divert atten-
ton from the vitality important currency
question by ancient and high sounding
declarations in favor of "nourishing our in
FAINT industries" by restoration of the high
protective tariff system. But it will not
work. The scales are rapidly falling from
the heretofore blinded eyes of the toiling
millions. They begin to discern the
truth. Before another year rolls around
the silver question, not the tariff, will be
recognized by the masses as the issue of
paramount Importance, and upon it will
turn the next national campaign.

MEAN METHODS.

How scandal grows as it travels This
is the way the Socorro Advertiser views
an ugly mess that has been maliciouely
set afoat by the Albuquerque Citizen and
it's Santa Fe correspondent:
"The Santa Fe correspondent of the
Albuquerque Citizen is stirring up a
small war by accusing several prominent
citizens of the ancient Of specializing
with the capitol building appropriation.
Perhaps the Citizen correspondent makes
some colored statements; but Santa Fe
men speculate in almost anything, and
have heretofore made money by all terri
torial bond issues"
There's absolutely not word of truth
in this business.

DEMOCRACY THE HOPE OF SILVER.

The comparative attitude of the Re-
publican and the Dem ocratic parties on
the oyershadowing silver question is
causing unspeakable anxiety and distress
among the Republican leaders Of the far
west, who intensely desire to stay with
the g. O. P. but dare not antagonize sill
yer.
The daily multiplying disclosures that
an overwhelming maj GRITTY of Democrats,
particularly in the west and south, favor
the restoration of the free and unlimited
coinage of the white metal at the old
ratio of 16 to l; the eloquent and unequiv-
ocal utterances of such prominent
Democratic leaders as "Silver Dick"
Bland, of Missouri; Bryan, of Nebraska;
Fithian, of Illinois; Mcclure and Cant.
netti, of California; Richardson, OF
Michigan; McLauren, of South Carolina
Money, of Mississippi; Ikert and Dono.
van, of Ohio, and many Others, in favor
of free coinage at lC to 1; the remarkable
Democratic free silver movement in
Illinois, together with many other
notable Democratic silver straws oil
blowing in the same direction
the nomination of 16 to l silver
Democrat for president on a 16 to
platform - are among the substantial
reasons why such western Republicans az
Senators Teller, Wolcott, Mitchell and
many Others of their class are becoming
uneasy, especially as the utter hope.
lessness of Republican Endorsement Of
silver is beginning to dawn upon them.
Unquestionably voicing the views of the
Colorado senators and the one kepubli-
can representative, the Denver Times

these significant words: "Ssould no
positive and unequivQoal gro1n1 be
taken by the Republican, party in Aa9e
npon the side of the fred eoaRage of silva.
it will then be time for onr pSAple to rise
up and shake of partnership which
would be nothing more than the most
palpable political slavery. In other
words, the Republicans of Colorado will
never abandon their party until they are
driven from its ranks by the injustics
