is larger proportion of self-support- ing blind persons in the United States than in any other country. While our system has not proved perfect, ani not few of the students have failed to make the use of their handicraft needed, yet on the whole the results have been very good, the blind being raised from the pauper class.
 Statistics show that scarcely two- tenths of the graduates from institu- tions for the blind practice the handi- crafts learned therein. Most of the graduates resort to various branches of the musical profession. teaching the clements of vocal and instrumental music, playing upon organs, tuning pianos, or trading in musical instru- ments. Some graduates take petty agencies, and with a guide go about the country. peddling on their owh account. Others, favored by friends. find employment in some of the es- tablishments where hand-work. cont bined with a certain amount of heati- work, is required. A few work dili- gently at their trades. and earn an honest and comfortable livelihood"
 In New York city education for the blind has made great progress. A re- cent article in the New York worli calls attention to three graduates of the New York Institution for the Blind: one. Mir. Eben Murford, wko manages a factory in which only blind men are employed: Prof. Carl, professor of mathematics at Columbia university, and Thomas Dagnia, the organist.
 A book whose aim is to direct the blind how best to employ their time has appeared in France. the author, $ famous oculist who at The age of e was suddenly stricken with blindness. The book is unique. deals with the heart Of things. shows what are the daily frets of the blind man-which mount ints so much of the tragedy of his life. One thing that specially im- pressed us was the evil accruing from telling a blind man lies. the admoni- ton always to be exact in statements made to the sightless. If a man lack ing eyes cannot put trust in those with whom he holds converse. life is made very dark for him indeed. Two ways of adding to the joys of the blind per sons life also were of much interest: one. taking him to the theater. a good seat in the front near the middle hay ing been provided and the play pre- viously explained. then. as the play progresses. the stage setting should be pictured Another happy suggestion sss the reading aloud of plays. the iiFerent parts taken by different indi- And cas readily sav the pathos of the remark that the unfortn- nate blind have to listen to @ much reading

days, but a millionaire's pet, very fine gentleman indeed. The rough sheep dogs bring high prices, too, and some Americans have brought over animals priced at from S1 900 to 5000 There is record of half dozen that cost s5.000 each. and one or two that brought S10.00O each.
 This sounds like a pretty big story, but we intend to add to it rather than detract from; make mention of fancy bulldog at $l0.0O0. of St. Bernards which used to bring from $5,O0o to $10.000 each. The latter were monks breed; to-day they do not bring such prices.
 The toy dogs always are in fashion, though now this breed is preferred, now that. Time was when skye ter riers were the height of fashion, the Scotch terrier in great esteem. To- day they retain some faithful friends, but do not hold the proud place once held. The favorite toy dog is the Japanese spaniel; other toy pets are Pomeranians, tiny black and tans, silky Yorkshires. white Maltese ter riers, black pugs and Pekin spaniels, and the miniature beagles may be in cluded.
 The small hound known as the beagle is very well thought of among millionaire sportsmen. and many a lord of landed estate keeps his pack of beagles. A house broken beagle is as good dog chum as one can find, makes a very satisfactory pet. The beagle is the natural enemy of the hare, the fox terrier used to have as his excuse for living his ability to dig out the fox after 1t was run to earth by the hounds. Both are canny dogs, but the fox terrier not what he once was. Very fancy prices formerly were paid for this canine. as high as s2,5O0. but the demand is not so strong as a few years ago. Still they have not few friends left. still are ih fashion. Welsh terriers are affected now, sturdy creatures and as yet unspoiIed by too fine breeding. Airedale and Irish ter riers go in the best society, the former the more.
 The cocker spaniel Is in good repute. . kennel of these intelligent animals a possession dearly prized by the coun- try gentlemen They make fine house dogs as well as fine field dogs; a good cocker spaniel is the best of eompsn- ions.

Great Floods Threaten GarAeld vine- ,i ihyard Regions of California. tRa'
 FRESNO, Cal, March 17.--A storm of unprecedented severity has been raging for sixty hours, and the region between the San Joaquin and Kinga river is threatened with the greatest flood in years. The fall of snow in the mountain exceeds all records.
 Advices from Pine Ridge. which is at an altitude of 5000 feet, say twelve feet of snow has fallen. and at the summit of the mountains the depth is twenty-one feet. The residents of the Garfield vineyard region worked all night in binding rain building levees, but their work went for nothing when a huge overflow wave went sweeping through that region yesterday morning. Fancher creek. flowing south of Fresno into canals of the Fresno Irrigation Canal company, is beyond control and is laying waste vineyards. Already miles of land are covered with five feet of water.
 After. night of terror the 800 people of Laton. on Kings river, have moved in body to the grade of the Santa Fe railway. The levees about Laton are six feet high, but they are overhowing.
 Numerous bridges are washing out in the northern colonies. Both the Santa Fe and the Southern Pacific report nu. merous washouts and train service de. moralizpd

We are letting up considerably in many ways on Anglophobia. do not follow the English lead so meekly as of yore.

 In modern times there has been much alleviation of their condition.

The Minneapolis journal. [volume] (Minneapolis, Minn.) 1888-1939, 1906-05-13

formerly Minneapolis newspaper man,
and in expressing his sorrow over the
condition Of affairs the governor has
urged the state board Of control to take
the proper steps looking to its preser-
walton.
Colonel Wallace was born at Tryo,
Miami county, Ohio, July 10, 1911. His
early life was spent in Indiana, where
he studied law and was admitted to the
bar. In 1885 he removed to Iowa and
was elected member Of the first legis-
lature and served as speaker of the
house. By President Taylor he was APP
pointed receiver Of public moneys at
Fairfield, Iowa. In 1858 Colonel Wal
lace removed to the territory of Wash
ington j In 1861 he was appointed ter
| ritorial governor by. President Lincoln,
after having served several terms in the
Legislature. He was later elected dele
gate to the Thirty seventh congress.
Before his term expired new terri
tory was set off from Washington, and
he was commissioned its first territorial
governor by Lincoln. Wallace was on
the committee to chose a name of the
new territory, and it is Mrs. Wallace
who suggested the name which was
adopted-Idaho. Pending the first cleo
| ton, Colonel Wallace was nominated by
/ the republicans Of the territory and
elected the first delegate to congress
He was serving in that capacity when
! Lincoln was assassinated, and was
