of a system and an able student of the
subject, considered Alstons system as
one of the best.
With the exception of the American
point" the principal systems which had
their origin in this country are Roman
alphabetic. ]. r. Freelander who
founded the Pennsylvania institution,
devised modification of the Roman
capitals. which was adopted and to a
small extent used throughout the
United States A number of valuable
works-about twcnty-were printed in
this letter at the Pennsylvania institu-
ton.
In the present confusion of systems
of blind printing in vogue letter writ
ten by the famous Able Carton on the
subject may prove of interest. Portions
of this letter may be translated as fol
lows:
Indeed, if character known to all
readers is employed in printing in re-
lief for the blind these unfortunates
will be drawn more nearly to other men
than if they We're taught to read a
character unknown to those around
them. Besides this. a common alphabet
can be more readily learned by those
persons who devote themselves to in
structing the blind, while new alpha
bet would raise an obstacle both to pu-
pill and teacher, and render a mutual
understanding more difficult
The largest number of the blind are
found among the poorer classes, and
their suflerings are intensified by the
feeling Of isolation. All our efforts
should be directed to removing these
barriers and to rendering instruction as
easy as possible; and if the same char
acter was used the elementary works
already provided for children could be
used in their instruction, and the blind
might even be admitted into ordinary
schools. which would conduce to a more
rapid development of their faculties
than a course of instruction in peculiar
institutions fitted only TO their special
needs and in the compamonship OF their
fellows in misfortune"
The point" systems, that is. those in
which dots or points, arbitrarily ar
ranged constitute the various letters,
much after the manner of shorthand,
enable the blind TO play cards and read
music. Notwithstanding the strong
arguments in favor of Roman numer-
ais, it is probable that the point sys-

stfnctive suspicion awoke in the two.
Had she ben sent as a spy by the Indians
to locate their ammunition, money and
food to an attack from the Indian ran
| cheria near Ivanpaugh?
| This suspicion at first vague. grew from
fear to almost maniacal frenzy, and after
many whispered consultations, with their
guns by their side. they determined to
| Kill the woman and close her mouth
against them forever. Accordingly the
plans were laid and executed, but new
| questions arose to complicate matters
What was to be done with the remains?
II they were buried outside the Indians
might find or dig them up, or they might
even now be watching the cabin from
behind some rock or cactus. In either
| case if the body were carried out of doors
they would be found out and made TO
suffer-
AS final resort one of them suggested
that the interment take place underneath
the earth of the kitchen floor, and this
was finally chosen. The grave being dug,
the poor old Indians body was rolled in
covered up, and all possible signs oblit-
Grated: but their troubles were not at an
end. The body had scarcely been covered
when the fear crept upon them that they
ton of the two men once more pictured
their own scalps dangling at the belt of a
Piute, while their horses were ridden by
an Indian murderer. They were sure they
saw the footprints Of many Indian mocca-
sins at the rear of their houses: Indian
faces rose before them the least noise
startled them, and sleep became impossI-
bic. So early one morning they saddled
their horses, turned their backs on Soda
Lake, and set their faces toward Camp
Cady, where a company of soldiers was
stationed.
Those unfortunates who tried later to
keep Soda Lake Station have told strange
stories connected with the place-stories
of unearthiy noises and groans about the
house, especially in the kitchen, and one
of these men. today living in the southern
part of the State. actually swears that
the old kitchen was haunted by the ghost

Ready for Bee, Contracts.

our books are now open for applica-
tions for beet contracts. In view of
the general satisfaction resulting
from this first seasons experience, we
have decided to offer a four-vear con-
tract, From the present outlook we
fully expect that the entire acreage
required for the fdctory will be ap-
piled for by the end of December.
Parties desiring To grow beets next
season should make application at
once, in order that they may not be
disappointed if, later on. we should
not be able to accept any more con-
tracts.
AS the quality of the soil isof vital
importance to both the grower and
the factory. no contracts will be exc
cuted until the land offered by the
applicant has been examined and ap-
proved by our agricullurists.
