What 1t Means to Re Cut on From Speech
and Hearing.

To tie deaf is to be unable TO hear,
The lack Of hearing is remcdicd by
teaching the child to use his eyes and
understand either signs or the motions
Of the lips, and the lack of speech il
remedied by teaching the child to use
his vocal organs or his hands to make
others understand, and, behold, the task
is accomplished, and he is Just like
other folks!' Not one thought Is given
to language, to the wonderful medium
of exchange by meal Of which the bust
ness of life is carried on, that is sup
posed to come by nature, or instinct, or
miracle, but never by teaching.
A cultured lady, a literary woman,
said to me once, after seeing some deaf
children and hearing them go through
certain vocal exercises which included
every elementary sound in the English
language: Now, if these children can
make all these sounds correctly, why
don't they go right on and talk? What
binders them?" She was a bright wOm-
an, and when a very short explanation
had been given her the reason flashed
upon her, and she said: "Why, what u
fool am! l see! They've got something
to say, and the mechanical ability to
say it, but no language to say it in."
And in that M sentence she expressed
the reason for being of all the institu-
tions and schools for the deaf in the
country.
mo language to say it in,' that ex
presses the condition of a deaf child's
mind before he is taught very we'll, but
perhaps land no language to think it
in should be added. Let the reader
try for himself and see how much con
secutive thought he can accomplish
without words, and if with his mind
trained by years of intelligent thinking
he can do little until the words come,
let him imagine, if he can, the state of
a mind cut off from language. Mabel
E. Adams in Popular Science Monthly.

TennysOn and His Wife.

TernysOn was devoted to his wife,
but, like a man Of true taste, he wrote
very little about his feeling for her.
That beautiful dedication beginning,
Dear, near and true" is that bit Of
his writing which will be most often
associated with her name. She was q

Tennyson has teen accused of inability
TO fuse the different portions Of a long
poem, and the> difference in style be-
tween THE Coming Of Arthur ard
"The Passing CT Arthur and the ether
"Idylls Of the King" has been cited in
illustration. Concerning this difference
Lady Tennyson said to her SOL only
two days before her death, "He said
The Coming of Arthur and The Pass
ing Of Arthur are purposely simpler in
style than the other idylls as dealing
with the awfulness Of birth and DEATH"
and she wished this statement of the
poet to be put on record in her sons

Judge Duffy OF Pierre has sustained

answer to which the demurrer was sus

OF the constitution, that "a bill for liquor

Hunting the Wild Goat.

The White Goat or Rocky Mountain
Goat AS it unfortunately calleds isoa
species OF z game rarely hunted by
sportsmen. This is not so much because
of the difficulty OF killing the
animal, nor because OF It's actual
rarity. 1t is a stupid animal, easily shot
when nee found. 1t is not, however,
found in the usual hunting grounds, as
are bear, deer, elk, etc. 1t is remote from
the common localities, but where found
is in goodly numbers. 1t ranges very
high up in the mountains, above timber
line usually, among rocks and cliffs
This requires great labor to get to it, but
once there the hunter will get his game
nine times out OF ten.

taken to vassar College to-day and identified as
the woman seen at tho college on the day that
Miss Longs watch was stolen, and as a domestic

mitted and who was summarily dismissed,
although no proof was obtained duplicating her
in tho thieving. The watch stolen from Miss
Long and recovered from RUBY Livingston is in
tho possession of Assistant District Attorney
Hoysradt. 1t is a gold watch with Miss Longs
initials on the outside. On the inside Of
the case Ruby Livingston has had her own
initials engraved. The attitude of indifference
assumed by Ruby Livingston and. the fact that
she retained the stolen property instead OF sell
ing it is Influencing the authorities to believe
that she is q kleptomaniac. She Is a handsome

Livingston has retained Joseph Morchauser as
