An Instructive Sermon.

Bishop Potter was preaching one
Sunday evening in q small town in the
Adirondacks where he has a summer
camp, says the New York Times.
When the services were over tall,

TAMMANY
New Jobs Being Created for the
Members.
Members.
Chicago Record Herald

\Su1CdSO nCCOIu l1cIdlu.J
The efforts Of the New York Dem
ocracy to provide for the hungry fol
lowers Of Tammany illustrate the re-
sourceful ingenuity of the party
spokesman who regards public Office as
an opportunity for public plumber.
The state and city civil service laws
have put a paddock on the public crib
so far as many of the municipal and
county jobs are concerned. But the
hunger of the Tammany tiger must be
appeased. There are not enough jobs
to 60 around, and the civil service
commissioners appear to have turned
deaf ear to the appeals Of those who
must bear the responsibility of dis
tributing the plumber to the faithful.
What was to be done?
1t did not take Park Commissioner
Schmitt Of the Bronx long to decide
the question. He has started in to
create new jobs. The fruits Of his
first effort in this line show what a
resourceful party park commissioner
can do in the way of distributing
park funds when he gives his mind Sc
riously to the problem. The first job
he created was that of "foreman of
bee culture.' It is not known that
there are any tame bees in parks, but
this will not prevent the Tammanyite
who has been appointed to this job
from drawing four dollars a day for
his services. Two more titles were
created, known as "foreman of bridge
Mechanics and "foreman of host
lers.'' Attention is called to the fact
that there are only few small wood
en- bridges in the parks. But that is
unimportant. It does not require
bridges to put Tammany man on
park pay roll.
Commissioner Schmitt has only just
begun. There yet remain to be filled
snch fat park jobs as foreman Of
grass benches, inspector Of hammocks,
director Of billygoats, also inspectors
Of pond lilies and croquet balls. In
deed, there are all sorts or rich pick
ings in the parks for the Tammany
faithful who have been shut out of
other pastures.

Word BLINDNESS
Produces Queer Results With Stu
dents So Afflicted.

Uondon Cor. Chicago Inter Ocean,
Word deafness and word blindnes:
are two remarkable defects which art
dealt with in the annual report to the
L. c. C. of the Medical Officer Of the
late school board for London, Eng
land.
The need for special schools fol-
defective children, where speech OF as
as normal kind as possible is taught
an dclear articulation insisted on, are
clearly shown by the following re-
markable statements:
"To a considerable number Of chill
dren reading and writing beyond the
most documentary attempts seem al
most impossible Of requirement. Many
Of these have marked mental feeble
ness; others seem scarcely amiss in
many respects.
"The want Of literary ability is
probably more general than is suppos-
ed. There are many cases Of inablll-
ty to recognize words, or to spell any
thing like the words dictated, while
at the same time the child has fair to
good faculties in other respects, such
as mental arithmetic. -
Some typical cases are given.
The following lines were dictated to
a boy who can do any ordinary arith-
metic, but is totally word blind: "The
drinks were ale and mead, drinks
which We're made in dark English for
ests with fermented honey.''
The boy wrote as follows: ola base
us Grams and krsut Grams was locts
boath in hast Enitsh louss ms harest
lanct.'' Three years later when earn
ing Is shillings a week, this boy cor
rectly wrote in arabic figures the sum
fb5S3, 121 Is 1134d from dictation.
When asked to write the sum in
words, he wrote:
"Seod oein dnuted edhoth snita
anerount,' and signed his name Ted
Smith,
Another reads: It has three birds
in it, as "To see-best in to- He
mistakes the letters c. and S constant
ly. He quickly and correctly
does difficult sums in mental
arithmetic, and can describe with
great minuteness any scene he has
witnessed; his memory is only bad for
word symbols. His intellectual process
es are carried on entirely in pictures
and the visual word center seems en-
tirely wanting.
Another boy, who does his school
work we'll and can draw, is "letter
blind,' and cannot tell a single letter
in his name.
A fourth has a wonderful faculty
of observation an dexcellent reasoning
powers, but cannot remember how to
make the signs l, p, 7 and 9.
