BLIND GIRL SEES LIGHT.
Edison Makes Further Experiment
With the " Rays.

A New York dispatch says: Another
illustration Of the marvellous power of the
X rays has just taken place in the Edison
laboratory IN Orange. A young glri o..
Newark received a severe blow ON tie
head three years ago, which, acting Oh
the optic nerves, caused absolute and total
blindness. The girl was placed under
the X rays, but, although her head was
completely permeated by the rays, no
special lesion could he located. The head
was so transparent while the rays We're
playing on it that Mr.. Edison placed his
" hand on the opposite side of it and
distinctly saw the bone; and their arlicu-
lation. Then he thought he would try
the effect Of the X rays directly on HE
eyes. The girl instantly saw light for
the first time in three years. She was
able to tell the different shades Of objects
hold before her eyes while sutfused with
the x rays and described them accurately.
1t the case of a disc of brass she even was
able to tell the color, saying it was yell
low. The experiment WAS considered ii
great success.

A Chicago 1ribune,s special from
jacksonville, Fla, says: Col J0sc Reyes,
al aid-de-canp of Gen. Maceo. passed
throug here on his way to the New York
junta. He says the lighting in tho KuAi
Hills of Pinar Del Rio was the most sam
culinary battle of the wur. He claims
that 1900 Of Gen. Weyler's men were
killed in two days and twice as many
wounded.
Gen. Weylcr went TO the field with
) 1000 men in three columns, II of 49,
900 under himself; one OF 10000 under
Gen. Echaguc, and a third of 10000 un-
der Gen. Munoz. They found MaceO
i~ntrenched in "A crescent shaped range
of hills. When at the foot of the hills
the Spaniards were met with a whitening
fire that cut gaps in their ranks. Maceo's
men Shot from behind rocks and trees and
gradually gave way before the Spaniards,
who, encouraged by what they thought 10
be IA victory, holly pursued.
Suddenly a deafening ex plosion rent the
air and a scene followed somewhat like
civil war. Horses and men were blown
high into the air and fell to the earth dead
and mangled. Gen. Maceo then let loose
his dynamite guns prepared by Linn OF
Chicago, and more havoc was wrought.
In the mine explosion Col. Reyes says
Gen. Weyier lost 200 men killed and 500
more in the charge. besides 1000 wounded.

News from Manila by steamer from
Hong Kong shows the Spaniards resorted
to torture of natives and hall castles OF
the Philippine Islands, SURPRISING in
oruelty that praclicet by the Chinese
mandArins in cases OF most atrocious
crimes. The instruments OF torture used
IN the Spanish inqni,ition three centuries
ago, which have been kept in the monas-
teries at Manila, were used 10 eXtOrt con-
LESSONS from the suspects. These help

wretched victims TO he west coast OF

Rev. james Miller, pastor OF the Grace
Methodist Church Of Bloomington, was
found dead In an alley in Decatur, H.,
with a bullet hole in his forehead and a
revolver lying near. His pockets had
been riiled. The murder was evidently
by footpads.
Rev. Mr.. Miller went to the latter cit,
TO visit his son, DR.. John Miller, and had
evidently just arrived from Bloomington.
Being thoroughly acquainted with the
city, he doubtless started to walk to the
residence of Dr.. Miller, near whose res

Miller was one of the ablcst and bes!
known ministers in Iiln is.
