A Blind Hunter.

Across the Kentucky river from Mer-
Ger county, just back of the Jessamine
county cliffs, against whose tall peaks
the clouds get wrecked and go to pieces,
is the modest home of Tom Johnson,
most remarkable man, says the Har-
rodsburg Democrat Mr.. Johnson has
been stone blind since early youth, but
Notwithstanding the loss of his eyes, he
is one of the most enthusiastic fox hun
ters in the State. Often alone he fol-
lows his hounds among the Kentucky
river cliffs in a gallop, and with appar-
ent recklessness that one with keen Wis
ion would not dare initiate, and, though
he has done this for many years, he has
never met with an accident. He knows
every nook and crook in the cliffs, and
when he comes to very dangerous
point he dismounts, takes hold Of the
horses tail and the animal guides him
in safety over places where a misstep OF
the faithful beast would hurl both man
and horse to certain destruction Win

OF ;a'ond'
There are aboat l. 05o people scat
tered over tha tWautY=o4Id rocks or

group. Every man in the country is
in some way tbe Geseendant of a king
that is, the NGrao sea kings, who fled
peoplcd them.
In spite Of lis hOmcspHhs, his turf
hut, and his primitive lite every good
Faroese is conscious aul proud of his
ancestry, and he bears himself like a
Highland prince, He has no newspa-
pers or social Problems but he knows
the history Of his island home and he
is a constant reader 0f books, mostly
Danish, but not of the dime novel or
der. His literary taste is inferior only
to that of the lccIanders. who for
1000 years have raised and maintained
an ideal of national literature of merit.
The lFaroesc dresses well. His chest
nut-brown jacket, trimmed with silver
bockers. are made from the pure un-
adlllterated wool of the Fdrocse l4oun-
tain sheep. His warm, handknit stock
1ngs, equal to those OF the Scottish
lIighlanders, would fetch high prices
in America.
His boat has served as a model for
European builders. who, under the
name of -vhaleboat, supply navies with
an imitation of the original, surf fight
Ing Farce shell.
His home is-well, mighty uncomfor-
table. but snug to him, apparently. He
drinks excellent coffee He gets the
pure bean by the sack. Each house
hold roasts it's own supply, and q fresh
quantity is ground each time coffee is
made, SO that none Of the flavor is
lost Sleeps or goats cream added
makes it a beverage that even fine ho-
tells might take pride in duplicating.

Perhaps the luuum:e5 that have fo@
4a1y centuries Lain iii tn gloomy cat
ae3mbs Aeneuh the pyramids OF Egypt
,~ill shudder in their easements if tho
plan Of a modern electrician is carried
alo effect. The darkness that has 50
long enshroudcd them is to be dissipa-
ted for tie benefit of tourists who flock
TO these ancient burial places by thou
sands every year. 1t is announced that
General Director Maspefo of the So
ciety which has in charge the preserva-
tion of the antiquities OF the country
has been experimenting with the cleo
trio light and began his work on the
temple of karnak at Thehes. The ex-
pertinent met with 50 much approval
that he has decided to light the inner
passages and catacombs of the great
pyramids. This will provide Egyptian
tourists with new attractions and they
will be able to penetrate to the inner
NEST recesses Of the pyramids.
The lighting will be of especial value
to women, who have confined their in
yestgations of the pyramids of the left
shore of the Nile to climbing up on the
outside. as they were afraid of the in
tense darkness within. With the intro
duction of the electric light the tombs
of the Pharoahs will be accessible to
all.
