A Blind Spot In the Eye.

1t is remarkable that although
the optic nerve is of all parts of the
eye the most sensitive to light, yet
should an object fall on it as we
look around us-and some object
must always be thrown on tit is
invisible to US, and in our field of
vision there is in reality gap,
though in ordinary sight the sur
rounding edges of this gap draw up
together and 30 fill it. But by clos
ing one eye by practice one may
actually force the object which is
reflected on to the optic nerve to
disappear completely from the field
of vision. Bernstein tells us that
even the sun itself can be made to
disappear if it falls exactly on the
blind spot where the optic nerve en-
tiers the eye. This may account for
the fact that some people can close
one eye and stare the summer sun
without wincing.

At $50 O'Clock the company made
its first attempt to resume the opera

seven passenger cars manned by be-

wearing the uniforms of car inspect
ors and each carrying 38-caliber re-

from the company g barns at Turk and

Twenty seven policemen, five
mounted and several sergeants, under
the command Of Captain Mooney,
we're on patrol guard.
The appearance Of the cars in Fill

switched into Turk street, was the
signal for an immene outburst of
jeers and bowls. Before the cars had
gone one block they we're made the
targets of showers of stones and
bricks. In a few moments every
pane of glass had been smashed and
several of the armed operatives had
been struck, cut and bruised.
This happening transformed the
crowds into a wild mob, and thence
forward for IL blocks a pitched bat
tie was fought, the strikers and their
friends, aided by hundreds Of youth
iul hoodlums, kept up a running
shower of missiles; the guards on
