The hearing child just learning 20

the ear is the guide aud critic Of these
early attempts. The deaf child. how
ever, hears no sound, and sees only the
slight movements Of the lips and tongue,
hnd can never learn to ospeak by his own
dnaided observation and imitation OF
those motions. The teacher must fur

the ear ordinarily supplies. The teach

has never spoken is truly wonderful
achievement. He has no conception Of

only sense by which he can be taught
the existence of such thing is that Of

GREAT FALLS, Mont, Feb. 6.-The
Northwestern national bank, of this
city, failed to open its doors Friday.
The failure is due to the cashier. The
directors learned of the shortage, took
possession and asked the comptroller
for instructions. He directed re-
ceiver to take charge temporarily until
the national bank examiner coulG reach
there. The bank has a capital of $780,
600 and surplus of S45, 900. Its presi-
dent is Joseph A. Coram and its cashier
is B. d. Hatcher.
The directors discovered that Hatch
er had drawn S1s0,0O0 from its Boston
correspondent, the Globe national
bank, and used it in the purchase OF
bank stock, formerly owned by Conrad
Bros. The bank officials knew of the
purchase of the stock, but were told
by Hatcher that the money was being
furnished by Boston parties for whom
he was making the purchase. 1t is be-
lieved that the Conrads knew nothing
of where the money was coming from.

SUFERAGES OF THE PEOPLE

The two principal causes of wOman,s
fall are poverty and drink. A report
from the head of the Salvation Army
Rescue Home in London says that drink
is an inevitable part Of the business. No
girl has ever yet came into our homes
from street life but has been more or less
a prey to drink, and all confess they
could never lead their miserable lives If
1t were not for the influence. In Chicago,
in Cleveland and in every city you find
the saloons and resorts the nearest neigh
bOrs and yet never quarreling. OF one
hundred and thirty-seven women and
girls received during five months in a
"Rescue" in New York, one hundred
and four, or seventy six per cent, en-
tered intoxicated. OF one hundred and
sixty eight women received, ninety
three per cent. were by there own con-
tessiOn habitual users Of intoxicating
liquors. The matron OF this institution
from her long intimacy with the cOndi-
tiOns, has come to believe that fully two
thirds OF the women start in this life
through strong drink, and that the ef-
forts to reform are futile, because OF
drink. This deSpairing cry comes from
one of the abandoned OF San Francisco,
addressed to the editor of the Examiner

forgive them. The laws which make
them possible, curse theml curse them

enemy to moral reform is standing open
day and night in thousands of places
in San Francisco? What nonsense. The
