cALIFoRNIA's BLIND wHEELMAN
Expert Rider Oh the Bicycle Makes II
Noteworthy Journey.
San Fra uctsca CtrnntcIe

j. c. Perry, blind man, has Just COM
pletcd trip to San Jose and return on a
bicycle. The sightless man was IN com
pany OF friend, Gilbert 5. Walker, Of Oak
land. who led the way. and the only guide
the blind man had was the little tinkling
bell attached To- Walkers wheel. With this
for guide Perry kept out Of the rough
places along the road, which a re many. and
received no more fails than an ordinary
wheelma n who has good eyes.
The trip was made on Friday, Saturday,
and sunday, and people along the road
Looked with astonishment a, a blind man
scorching along the road with just as much
confidence as any other OF the numerous
whcelmen.
Perry is a graduate of the Institution
for the deaf, dumb and blind. and has been
blind for fourteen years. He Is an expert
whcelman and IA remar arkably bright young
man. He requires guide only on those
rnads with which he is unacGuaiDtcd, and
Is accustomed to go about N his wheel on
known paths just as does the man with
good eyes. He has had few accidents.
The blind wheelman is modest. and said
IN speaking of the matter: Il don't see
that there Is anything wonderful about a
man riding a bicycle. 1t is a perfectly
natural thing. and there is nothing in 1t
calling for mention"
Perry is now "A senior at the University
Of California and will graduate next May
with the class of 1896. He stands well in
his studies, and is highly spoken OF by his
fellow students He is especially strong
in Intricate problems in mathematics. and
in this line is a source Of wonder to his
classmates Perry takes long trips alone.
and is often TO be seen on the late boats
from San Francisco. In learning TO ride,
he said he went at IL in the usual way.
He had a number of tumbles, but no more
tina those who see. and simply persevered
until he mastered the bicycle, and now en-
iOys IL hugely.

A few days since, while Hector Macalistcr

IN THE HANDS OF THE COURT
Arguments in the Electric Light In
iuuctiou Closed

Junction closed.
Chief Justice Bingham yesterday after
noon took under advisement the pagers

to enjoin the Potomac Light and Power
Company and the Commissioners from
carrying out the purpose to build .ole
line for an electric light current from George
town Ia lexington. lie may give a de-
cision this week.
Mr.. Henry E. Davis resumed his argument
yesterday morning. He urged that it was
destructive of public interests To deny the
Potomac Light and Power Company. the
right to use its permit to run its po.es and
wires from Georgetown To lexington.
Turning to a consideration of the laws
under which electric lines may be run.
he said, the Potomac Company was com ;ug
hCTe asking to be allowed 10 put up " Tres
III the suburbs under precisely the same
laws as those under which the United
States Electric Lighting Company has
erected its great net Work here IN tine city;
yet IL was lnls same United States Company
which is instituting this opposition
Judge Bingham said IL was the question
of where the Potomac Company got its
current that was left doubtful 1t was
not made perfectly clear whether the wires
in Georgetown to which objection had
been raised were carrying electricity from
the Georgetown and TeIeytown Railroad
power house or from some other source.
why" asked Judge Bingham, do you
want a connection with the wires at George
town? There seems to nIe to be two
parts to this ease. One is whether you
may use the wires in Georgetown already
strung, against which the complainant as
serts there is an Inhibition in the act of
1895, putting into effect the statute of
1888. The other question is whether the
Commissioners have power to authorize
the erection of the proposed pole line
Mr.. Davis replied that under the condi-
tions of his clients operations they would
want to pass the same current over the
Georgetown wires and the proposed line.

The commissioners for the primary elec-
ton, nessrs. Gieeson, Parker and Carson
met yesterday afternoon at the Kellogg
building 10 consider the ways and means
or the coming contest at the polls.
Among those other than the commission.
ers present were, Messrs. Bailey, DYSON

One OF the matters of interest to the
candidates was the discussion as To whether

didates To put up n share of the costs of
the election IN order to remain in the race
This question viii probably be definitely
settled at an adjourned meeting OF the
commissioners, To lie held this afternoon in
the Kellogg building.
HOURS OF VOTING.
An important change was made in the
hours for the voting, which will be from
p. m. TO 5 u. a., instead OF from 3
p- M. TO y. IN.
The various polling precincts were dis
cussed as Submitted by the committee, but
no positive action was taken as TO their
adoption.
The commissioners agreed to a propo-
sition that she candidates should have u
supervisor at each precinct. 1t will be
recalled that Sir. Gleeson made the point
that il was unseemly that the candidates
should be the judge OF their own election.
and therefore, while he was not allowed to
act 10y proxy, his objection has prevailed to
the extent that all the other candidates
viii have fair show at the polls.
ALLOTTING SUPERVISORS.
A supervisor will be allowed at each
polling place, such supervisor to be agreed
upon 10y the candidates.
Each candidate is TO have his own tickets
printed the regulation size, 6 inches by 3
inches.
One of the commissioners said last night
that while it has not been decided to re-
quire assessments from candidates, 1t ap.
pears to be the sentiment that il would
lie unfair to demand il from some an let
