MASSAGE BY THE BLIND.
London Institution TO open New Oe-
eupatiOn for which They Are
Peculiarly Adapted.

There is to be a very new field of
work opened for the blind by the Lon
don Institute for Massage by the Blind,
which is about TO be started under a COM
mittee that includes many representa-
tive medical men II is not an expert
ment 1t has proved that the blind can
become expert in the practice Of mas
sage, which in Japan is commonly rec
ognized as their work, reports the Phil
adelphia Press. The occupations open
TO the blind are few and rarely remuner-
alive. The difficulty is one of the gravest
obstacles TO the improvement Of the
condition of this afflicted class. There
are already several blind masseurs in
that country. Some $500 is needed, and
central rooms are then TO be secured
under a hospital matron. Blind stu
dents must obtain first-class medical GER
uhcates in an art which is daily more
used, especially by surgeons in sprains
and bruises, and masseuses will be al
lowed to treat only women and children
and mRsseurs only men. The whole
scheme needs only TO be mentioned to be
approved 1t is also worthy of note that
the blind are usually endowed with a
sense Of touch exceptionally fine, 30
that here, and perhaps here alone, is a
held in which they may surpass their
seeing brothers, massage being depend
ent for its success upon the nicely Of
its application, dependent in its turn on
the nicely Of the operators tsctile sense.

FIGHT OVER BOOKER WASHINGTON
Delegates at Afro-American League Object
TO His Picture on Stage.

Louisville July 2.-At the meeting of the
Afro-Americau League to-day there was lively
objection to placing the picture Of Booker T.
washington on the stage, but the delegates were
pacifed by the bringing out of a large painting
Of 7 C. Price Southern educator, now dead.
and placing it behind the Washington canvas.
THE trouble arose because of a factional fight
betUeen the industrial. the higher education and
the political divisions In the gathering.
The first sign of dissension came when Fannie
williams of Chicago, read the report of the
Literary Bureau in which she treated princi-
nallv of Booker T. Washington and his work.
Inst as she finished Mr.. Washington entered
+be hall. and a man stepped from the wings and
n1aced a large oil painting of Mr.. Washington
on the stage.

PAYNE SEES KEARNS.
Their Talk Might Be Interesting to
Perrq Heath.

In the present condition OF affairs in the post
Office. a conference, or, perhaps. a friendly
chat" held at the Waldorf-Astoria last night
between Postmaster General Payne and Senator
Thomas Kearns of Utah, seems not without in
terest- Senator Kearns is The owner of the
paper with which Perry S. Heath, whose name
has appeared with considerable frequency in the
postal investigation reports, was connected. The
two are close friends, and it would appear that
something of interest to Mr.. Heath was dis
cussed by the Postmaster General and Senator
Kearns
The Postmaster General arrived from Wash
ington via the Pennsylvania Railroad at $3.50
o'clock, accompanied by Mrs. Payne, en- route
for short rest in the Catskills He went direct
to his room, leaving word that he would see no
callers He saw Senator Kearns however, at
great length.

RumOrS That He Intends to Resign
Discredited an Washington.
TFRoM THE TRIBUNE BUeEAu.I

Washington. July 2.-Secretary Hays intimate
friends here were greatly surprised to learn of
the revival of old rumors that he might soon
resign from the Cabinet. While no one in
Washington is authorized to speak positively
for him in his absence in Newport, those hold
ing the closest relations with him expect him to
return TO Washington on Tuesday, and do not
hesitate to say that when he left here last Mon
day he certainly had idea of surrendering
the remarkable distinction he has held for nearly
four years. with the exception of the seven
months in 1901 when Mr.. Roosevelt held the
Senate gavel. of being virtually the Vce-Presi-
dent Of the United States as first in the line Of
Presidential succession Mr.. Hay. it is ex-
planned by those who know his views the
subject is deeply sensible of the dual RESPONSE
bility which has been reposed in him by two
successive Presidents-first, from Vice-Presi-
dent Hobarts death on November 21, 1899, to
Vice President Roosevelts inauguration on
March 4. 1901. and, for the second time. from
President McKinley's death, on September t.
1901 to this date-and he has frequently said
that nothing less than extreme physical inca
pacity would induce him to resign from the post
he has held at the right hand of the executive
of the nation his chosen successor. In fact
only few weeks ago Mr.. Hay, conversing about
Cabinet changes. reiterated emphatically his in
tention to continue Secretary of State

time blew at velocity OF sevelty-two miles an
hour 1t swept across the upper part OF the

which darkened the sky orninously. shot flashes
of lightning so close together in point OF time
that the zigzag bolts and the crashing thun-
der seemed continuous. The lightning struck in
a a-number Of places in and about the city. From
all parts of the city last night came reports OF
the damage done by the storm Signs fagstaffs
end high board fences gave way before the
blast, and rats were drowned in the floods which
swept through the streets. The heaviest down
pour was followed by discharge of hail
The approach of the storm was first observed
at the Weather Bureau at 2-1S D The sky
gradually darkened and at 2;45 p m. the mer-
curry in the thermometer suddenly DROPPED rom
90 degrees to 40 This drop occurred in the
space of four minutes. Rain began to fall at
4O3 D. m. and il continued intermitently until
52O q. m. In the course or that time twenty
eight hundreds of an inch OF water fell Just as
the rain began to fall. the wind attained its
maximum velocity After the first fall of rain
the temperature rose again to so degrees An
other shower forced It down to % degrees. but.

as the pressure was released the mercury sprang
up again and at 6 p. m. it recorded 81 degrees.
Just about the temperature which might have
been expected had there been no shower
There were in reality two storms but they
blended into one the first half being unaccom-
panied by rain. The Bronx, to the north OF
Manhattan was the first to feel its effects. and
the lower portion of that borough suffered the
most The first manifestation was wind OF
extremely high velocity. which swept across the
borough from west to east. uprOoting trees.
smashing plate glass windows. blowing pedes-
trians from their feet. and doing all kinds OF
damage Apparently the storm was in two d.
visions. one advancing down the valley Of the
Hudson River and the other approaching from
Ions; Island Sound. which was chUrned into
fury bv the force Of the wind These two di-
visions met over the lower Bronx. with dazzling
displays of electricity and peals OF thunder
which reverberated pOnderOusly like the reports
of heaviest ordnance
In the downtown districts the storm caught
thousands of people just they were leaving
their Offices for home. So heavy was the down
fall of rain. and so fierce the wind. that walking
was almost out Of the question. and doorways
and similar places Of refuge were crowded
