MEETING HELD LAST NIGHT
Mrs. Andrew S. Rowan Prcsitics Over
An Enthusiastic Session i'll Aid

"A meeting took place last evening,
which viii mean the opening probably,
of a new world of benefit and en-
deavor to the blind. 1t was the m
itiatory movement OF free reading
room for this afflicted class when Is
to open next week at the public M
rary. where readings will be given by
a number of we'll known women VINO
have enrolled themselves for the work.
Mrs Andrew S. Rowan of Fort Dou-
Mlas who is the mover in the enter.
prise, presided oVer5an enthusiastic SEES
zion of an hour or more IN Whlch tile
aim OF the auxiliary library. ana us
various phases of future development
Z We're brought out. Mrs. Rowan briefly
outlined the work which has been done
in other cities and countries Tor the
blind, and said that the hope Of the
local one is to open new helds 81 en-
dearor and progress for the blind, as
Well as to furnish them Il means OF
recreation and study. She said that
In Paris, London and Japan the work
of piano-tunng is left chiefly to the
blind, and stated a number OF cases
In which men and women mad risen 20
places of Importance in the word
through the training of their special
powers. The gifts of the blind. she
said, were lseener and more delicate
than of the seeing, IN the line of per-
captions of touch, hearing. feeling ana
concentration, and these gifts properly
trained, would open wide fields OF ac-
ton to those so often considered heip-
4 less. This struck tender chord Win
the blind representatives present. who
each had stories to tell of limitations
in this way through lack of confidence
on the part of the world in their pow
ers. 4 poignant grief to them IS me
idea of dependence, and 1t was some
thing OF a lesson in the way of human
sympathy and appreciation, to hear
K each tell how he had worked along
the narrow lines within his reach to
try to become independent, and of the
acknowledgements that arose along the
way.
Mrs. Rowan said that it was the
object OF the auxiliary to try in con
nection with the library movement, to
open means for now employmentS for
the blind, and hoped that II would
grow. TIL such ambitions could be ac-
&complished,
Mrs. Cowan stated that as a begin
ming Of interest felt she had heard from
Supt. briggs Of the stats
the Deaf, Dumb and Blind. in Ogden,
who had offered number OF books
for their use until they obtained some
Of their own, Other evidences of sym
patty had come to her, and she be-
lteved the enterprise would prove
scessful. St
The question Of commencing the
readings next Monday, and of the
hours and days to be used for the pur-
pose, was put to the assemblaGe and
approved, consequently the first read
ings will be held in the board room of
the public library next Monday, Wed
nesday and Friday, from 1880 to $3.50

time and place each week.
Many expressions OF sympathy in the
work were heard from those present.
