THE WIND AND THELEAVES,

There is warfare in the garden, and the
many are outmatched
In the struggle of the millions and the
one:
For the bitter wind is blowing. and the
yellow leaves are going,
And the armies of the summer turn
and run.
Here they come. a flying legion, round the
corner, down the path,
While they seek in vain a shelter from
the foe.
BY this furious onslaught scattered, clad
in russet, torn and battered
Lost and ruined in the summers over
throw.
Time was when they were allies in the
April afternoon.
When the winter and the SHOWS were at
an end:
For he touched the earth so lightly, that
they issued green and sprightly,
And they hailed him for their champion
and their friend.
Then they loved him In the summer, and
he'kissed them as he passed,
When the uniforms they wore were
fresh and green:
And they trusted in him blindly. for they
thought his voice was kindly
AS he whispered through the coppice or
the dene.s
But they found his rough advances on
the gray September morn
Very different from his genial breath in
June;
For when the year grew older. his friend
ship 1t grew colder,
And he threatened and he piped a war;
like tune.
So they sought him. and he beat them;
and the garden paths today
Tell sorry tale of ruin and defeat.
For the cruel wind is roaring, and before
him, whirling. soaring,
Go the little weary soldiers in retreat.

Hope for the Blind.

The current issue of The Electrical
Engineer contains an announcement
by Thomas a. Edison which can hard
" fail to attract international atten-
ton. Taking his cue from the expert
ence of the San Francisco professor
who, having been blind for fourteen
years. one day in jest placed the tiuor-
oscope to his eyes and declared his
ability to see. Mr.. Edison began inves-
legations to determine the effect of the
Roentgen or "X'-ray upon the eye
sight. He now afIirms that with strong
tubes one can easily see through the
hand with the naked eye when both are
brought close to the tube. In other
words, the E-ray is an extraordinary
eye-tonic. so to speak,
This" says Mr.. Edison. sis the start
While ] know nothing of the eye from
surgical standpoint, I have found out
that darkness intensifies the power to
see. ] have discovered by mathematic-
al deductions that staying in an abso-
lutely dark room for thirty minutes in
creases the sensitiveness of the eye
twenty-five fold. l find it so in the use
of the fluoroscope, and 1t will soon be
recognized by all scientists. 1t follows,
then, that the eyes of the blind must
be many hundreds of times more SEN
stive than that of the normal, pro-
vided the optic nerve is in a healthy
state. Here the discovery hinges. If
the optic nerve is all right-no matter
what the condition of outer eye may
be--there should be hope of sight, from
scientific standpoint
This discovery" Mr.. Edison con-
tinues. "strikes me as being especially
well adapted to persons suffering from
cataracts beyond the power of surgical
skill. These persons have i'm most es-
sential respects normal eyes. The
nerve is all right and, being covered
to total darkness. the eyes must be
sensitive to degree impossible to call
cula:e. With the Roentgen ray to PEN
citrate this film why should not these
persons see?''
1t is interesting to note that Profess
sor Goodspeed, of the University of
Pennsylvania. shares Mr.. Edison's
hOpefulness on this point. Says he: II
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1896-11-20

See nothing impossible in the sugges-
tion of making the blind see, when
certain abnormal conditions of the eye
has produced blindness. For instance,
when a cataract has appeared over the
eye. Cataract is due to aUoacity of
the crystalline lens and it may exist
when the eye is otherwise optically
perfect. Since the X-rays pass stead
lily through many things opaque to 9TH
er forms of radiant energy it may not
he too much to assume that they may
pass into an eye thus diseased. and
produce some sensation upon the optic
nerve"
1t is needless to add that the public
will await with eagerness the utiliza-
tion of this certainly important discov-

TIE Faribault Plan.

The numerous conflicting reports cur
ing at the Vatican having been affected
adversely by recent representations on
the part of Cardinal Satoll and GER
tain conservative American bishops re-
calls the starting of the present fac
tional warfare among the clergy of
the Catholic church in the United
States. 1t dates back to 1891, when
arose the celebrated controversy over
what was known at the time as the
Faribault plan That plan merits ex-

The parish priest of Faribault, Mimi
community with large Catholic pop
uation, transferred to the city school
board with Archbishop lreland's APP
proval, control of the parcchial school
rcserving the right TO present names
of teachers, who were to he subject to
the usual examination. The expense
of cOnductin. the school was to hc
borne by the city. there were to be no
religious exercises. no religious instIuc-
ton. no religious emblems in the school
and the same textbooks were to be
employed as in the other public schools
In fact, the only difference between the
parochial school and the other schools
lay in the stipulated right of he priest
Of the parish to designate persons from
among whom the teachers in it were tn
be chosen by regular examination.
The conservative wing in the Cath
olc church Immediately lodged com.
plaint in Rome and after 4 long dis
cussiOn it was decided by the supreme
ecclesiastical tribunal of that church
that while the Faribault plan might
by reason of peculiar local conditions
be permissible in Faribault and still
water (anOtber Minnesota town in
which it had in the mean tine been
adopted) it would not he admissible
in future cases. BY this decision the
Catholic church virtually put an end
to efforts within that church to nego-
tiate for a compromise with upholders
of the American common school sys-

had axes to grind: and he said unto him
self: 1T is indeed fortunate for the
party that ! gave time and talent to Its
service. | Will eat, drink and be merry
and jump on those who oppose me. for
when | drop out the party won't be In it,.
But when his term of Office expired tho
circle of warm friends of prosperity viii
ened and the populace hardened not unto
his counsels. Yea. even those who HAD
sounded the trum?ets in his behalf re-
fused to whisper of his past achievements
And the party moved on to new triumphs
in the even tenor Of its way, as though
the statesman had never raised it's BAN
ncrs aloft.
And the statesman marvelled and said:
"Alas. 1t was not me, but the plum tree
that l was shaking"

Philadelphia and the Senate.

1T is a remarkable fact" observes n
contributor to the Philadelphia Bulle-
tin, that the city or the county Of
Philadelphia. including at all times one
fifth to one-fourth of the population of
Pennsylvania, has not been able to
send one of its own citizens to the Unit
ed States senate since the days of An
drew Jackson's first term as president.
Boston has Lodge in the senate, as she
has had several of her eminent citi-
zcns; William NJ. Evarts went thither
from New York city: German has been
practically a Baltimore man; FOraker's
career has been passed in Cincinnati; ;
he was a senator for Missouri Farwell
was favorite Of Chicago: Zach Chand
Ter won his fortune and his honors in
Detroit; Harrison went into the senate
from Indianapolis. and so over a score
of instances might be named of city
men born or brought up in big centers
of population, who have succeeded at
times in breaking down the country
prejudice against the cities. But such
a thing has not happened in Philadel-
phia for siXty-iive years, or before
either of the present senators from
Pennsylvania was bonn"
But is this fact SO very remarkable?
When has Philadelphia in the inter-
vening time presented as its candida te
a man of noble character and high at
tainments and supported him with
practical unanimity? Take for ex-
ample, its present candidates. The two
most prominent ones are Penrose and
Wanamaker. The people of Philadel-
phia wouldn't have Penrose for mayor,
| much less a senator; and as for Wana-
maker, if he Were to wake up one morn
ing and find that his fortune had van
ished the preceding night. by noon he
wouldn't have corporars guard Of
supporters for senator or any other Of
flee. Take, also. the third name men,
toned in Philadelphia, that of L. a. Il.
Widener. Probably not one man in five
hereabouts has ever heard of Widener.
He is a very able and estimable busi-
| ness man, so far as we know, but Is
| rendered unsuitable by reason of GER
tain corporate affiliations and by the
fact that his capabilities for such po-
sition are wholly a matter of conjec
ture. So it has been for years. Phila-
delphia ignores her good men and then
wonders why she cannot have clear
path for the politica! eXaltation of her
poor ones.
When Philadelphia uses judgment in
the selection of senatorial candidates
she can probably win.

The Tribune will print tomorrow an
article by Mr. Richmond reviewing in
detail the advantages and possibilities
Of the city of Winnipeg. and giving
substantial reasons why this energetic
capital of the Canadian Northwest
seems destined at no far distant day
to surpass Chicago. II is an interesting
article in itself. and 1t adds pertiuency

The sad news comes that the chief
consulships. once worth anywhere from
$4,000 to $4,000 a year apiece, have
been 50 adjusted as to be worth here
after only the regular salaries. which
be an unexpected shrinkage of the
fruits of victory.
