Won Honors Though Blind.

The honors of the commencement exercises at the South Carolina college this year were carried of by John E. Swearingen, of Edgeiield. $. C., who has been totally blind since ne was seven years old, reports the Buffalo F-.- press. Swearingen stood higher than any man since the college was estab- lished early in the century. In such branches as mathematics and astroD- omy, where the sense of sight would naturally be regarded as of the utmost importance, he has achieved remarka- be success. One professor says, for instance, that Swearingen answered with two minutes thought d complex mathematical proposition that has nol been answered by another student in the college. He appears 10 have per feet conception of relative positions and distances, and he experiences no difficulty in drawing geometrical fig ures. 1t would be interesting to know how much of his present conception of these things is due to knowledge gained consciously or unconsciously be, fore he became blind, A child of seven years generally has a pretty good idea of form, though not so good of dis tance. If he were an unusually bright child, as Swearingen probably was, these ideas would be much advanced
 while in either case they would be last
 ing. Swearingen is ambitious, bul is undecided whether 10 become min ister or a lawyer. His teachers believe he would adorn either profession.

GREAT FIRES IN HISTORY.
The london and Moscow Fires the Most
 Momentous in Consequences.

From Leslie's Weekly
 The Old Worlds most calamitous fire was that which took place in Lon- don in 1866, which destroyed l4000 buildings, laid 400 streets waste, and rendered 100000 persons homeless, the loss of life being 1000, and that of property siO,0O0, O0O Moscow's con hagration in 1912 evoked from Bona. parte, when be woke up and got his first glimpse of its beginning, This is what these barbarians call war" It consumed 5000 of the city's 10000 buildings, compelling 2O,OOO of the city's sinhabitantst to sleep on the ground destroyed 200 lives and $l0,000,00 of property, and had political consr quences which affected the history of Europe. It brought Bonaparte's Rus rian campaign to disaster, caused re treat in the dead of winter in which the lives of l50, 900 of his soldiers were lost, broke the spell of his Invincibilty, and melted the new combinations against him which eventually resu ted in his overthrow.
 New York City had a fire in lo35 which destroyed 20,000, 900 worth of property, and one in 1858 which in- ficted loss of sl0,0OO,uOO. and this was followed by one in ls45 in which SS,000,0O0 of property went up III smoke. Pittsburg had s6, OOO, ,OOO ire in 1915, followed by Nune in Albany which inflicted damage of s3, OOO, ,OOU in lS4S, and by one in St. Lotus which destroyed S5,000,OO0 of property in IS49. San Francisco had two fires six weeks apart in 1851, ipfilcting d loss or S4, 000, GOO in the first and s3, ,0UO,O 900 iD the second. The Fourth of July cele- bration in 1866 caused, in Portland, | Me, the most destructive fire ever known on the American ,ntinent along to that time, except New Yorks of 1885, POrtland's loss being l5,OOO.- | 900, like Jacksonville's.
 The two most calamitous fires ever known anywhere in the world oc- cured in the United States within thir- teen months of each other. Ihe first of these, in Chicago, on October S9, 1871, the property loss WAS s2OO,OOO,- GOO and in the second, in Boston, on November g, 1872, Ss0 900, 900 of prop erty was consumed In Chicago 100 . 600 persons were left without homes and 200 were killed. Chicago's heads the list of the worlds destructive con fagrations, but as she had over 3OO,- GOO population in 1871, the loss m Jacksonville in 1901, with 2S,OOO popu- lation, is approximately not very far below that of the metropolis on Lsk, | Michigan.

be worked owing to lack of water, and now comes the report that the process is not a success. Whether Mir. Edison will abandon the matter or endeavor to perfect the process is not known.-Lordsburg Liberal.
 The permanence of the King of Ari. zona mine was settled during the week by the cutting of the inclosed vein by a shaft at depth of 600 feet. The pay streak crossed was found four feet in width with one perfect wall. Within this pay streak the assays average S54 to the ton in gold. Prosecuting las been started to determine the full width of the ledge. The mine, which is mainly owned by Epes Randolph and Eugene s. Ives of Tucson, Is the same that had such fame as a pro- ducer of rock at the surface worth thousands of dollars to the ton. Now that it has been demonstrated that the ore body is permanent one, it is un- derstood that the owners will install much larger reduction plant, in the meantime energetically opening up stoping levels. The last bullion ship ment from the mill, for something less than months work, was S45, ,000.
 The recent sale of the South Bisbee Copper company's property to the Tarsis company of Glasgow for S2,- 500,0O0 brings to mind the fact that this property was offered to the Cop per Queen company only few years ago for S2,000. Of course d large amount of development work has been done on the property since that time. This only goes to confirm the old saying that no man can see into the ground. The claims were con sidered absolutely yalueless when To- cated, but now Mir. c. s. Pitcairn, an expert whose reputation extends around the earth, is willing to take them at twoand half millions, ana it is quite likely that under his able management the property will in- crease in value many fold during the next few years. In this the pros- pector can find much encouragement. He should not be cast down because his property is not considered of value by mining men. In fact almost every mine of any real worth in the terri tory today has been turned down by prominent experts in years past. The tbing for the prospector to do is to develop his property just as rapidly as possible. The prospector who has energy and who works is the man who makes the money. The man who lays around and does nothing, has nothing to show and therefore his property is not considered desirable. Clifton Era.

Over 4O, 900 shares have been sold. R. R. Richardson, Arthur Crepin, Sheriff Harry Barnett and District Attorney w. F. Cooper are among the lucky owners of the mines. Tucson Star.
 l. D. Carter returned last Monday from the Potholes, where he went two weeks ago for the purpose of testing his dry concentrating machine on gold bearing gravel. The test was very satisfactory, and Mir. Carter is confident in the belief that he has the proper scheme for working dry placer ground. He has secured tract of ground and will this fall erect plant for working the gravel on large scale.-Yuma Sun.
 Connection was made Monday last between the tunnel and the upraise in the mountain adjoining the works of the Arizona Copper company, which will be used as smoke stack for the new smeltlng plant. The sun- 200 feet, and the upraise to the sur face is 250 feet. A fifty-foot stack will be erected on top of the mountain, which will carry the smoke of the plant to such distance above the town that no inconvenience will be had in the future.

deepest grief; but in this dark hour they
should lean hard upon the precious promise
of Him. who Ia able and willing to assuage
their grief, to bind up their broken hearts, TO
give them grace day by day to Sns,ain and
i cen Them Father and babe are now beyond
the river waiting at the "beauLiful ga,e," to

that radiant throng where there is no more
separation. Oh happy thought TO be re-.
united forever and forever.
