BLIND PEOPLE IN SPAIN.
umber Is Very Large and There
IL No Effort to Re-
duce 1t.

The large proportion of blind people
in Spain has attracted attention since
the beginning Of the present century.
The subject is again brought up by an
article by Privy Councillor Eirschbcrg
in the German Medical Weekly giving
the results of his recent observation
in Spain. where he attended the. ny
gicnic congress. He says Tie streets
of Madrid swarm with blind Eecrars;
the further south he went the more
blind he met. The proportion in Spain
as given in the census of 1850 is IL to
10,CGO, against eight to nine in Ger
many, France and England; but that
figure is considered undoubtedly false
by continental authorities. More re-
cent figures give 14.S. The chief ca uses
of blindness in Spain are infamma-
ton CT the eyes of infants, granula-
ton and smallpox. The widespread
fatalistic attituC." of the sick. the lack
Of governmental oversight and the
small attention paid to disease of the
eye operate to increase the number
of the blind in Spain. There is not a
single public eye hospital in Spain. nc

THE MEXICAN HOUSEHOLD.
1t II Arranged and Conducted ON an
Economical and Orderly
Plan.

The arrangement of furniture is
much more formal than in the United
States. 1t is u very common sight to
see n Observation-Disclosures parlor with
a row Of straightforward chairs all
alike with their backs against the wall
and as close together as they can be
placed clear around the room, says
the Modern Mexican.
Heavy single doors, such as are used
in the United States, are practically
unknown in Mexican houses either at
entrances or between interior rooms.
All doors open in Che middle and are
fastened with bolts at top and bot
tom. Exterior doors are always fitted
with glass panels. for they also serve
as windows. All such doors opening on

with solid shutters that are folded at
the sides out of sight when not in
use.

FERNANDIxA, Fla, Sept. l. - The
hospital ship Olivette, which has been
lying near the quarantine station
through some mysterious agency, sank
about 7:3O o'clock a. m. Aboard Of the
ship was the hospital corps of IS and
crew of 45 persons, all of whom es'
capped without injury, but in scanty
attire. The roustabouts sleeping IN
the lower hold had narrow escape,
being driven from their hunks like 81
many rats. Fortunately for those on
board there was a schooner near by
and some of them took shelter on her,
while others sought refuge at the quar-.
antine station. The Olivette went down
in about 80 feet Of water, her main
deck being submerged. No one appar'
emily knows how the calamity could
have occurred, and as no investigation
has yet been made. the matter remains
a mystery. Vessels in the harbor, will
probably pump her out if such thing
is possible.

MAY TURN ON THIS.

Arrest of Colonel Henry Likely to Be of
Importance in Dreyfus and lola Cases.
PARIS, Sept 1.-The arrest of Lieu.
tenant Colonel Henry, on the discov-
cry that he is the author of an impor.
tant letter which figured in the Drey-
fus case, is one Of the most sensational
developments in the whole of this ex-
traordinary affair. Colonel Henry has
been throughout the champion Of the
army against Colonel Picquart, with
whom he fought duel. This new de-
velopment appears to alter the aspect
of both the Dreyfus and the lola case,
and to practically nullify the evidence
of Generals Pellieu and Boisdefre and
the declarations of the minister for
war, M. Cavaignac, in the chamber of
deputies. In fact some people believe
that perhaps the real turning point in
the Dreyfus case has been reached and
that the arrest Of Colonel Henry will
lead to revision of the trial of the
prisoner of Devils island.
Colonel Henry confesses to having
committed forgery lowing to the abso'
lutte necessity for finding proof against
Dreyfus." It is understood that the
document in question is the letter
which hitherto has been alleged to have
been written by the German military
attache to the Italian military attache
in October, 1896, and was the chief
evidence upon which Dreyfus was con-
victed.
When Count Esterhazy was informed
Of the arrest of Colonel Henry and OF
his admission, he exclaimed:
