EYESIGHT
CAN'T Be RESTORED
Treatment Twenty Years Ago
Might Have Averted
Blindness.

All hope OF Senator Thomas P. Gore
recovering his eyesight has been given
up by his physicians. his friends. and
the Senator himself
The case IS made all the sadder be-
cause thu blind Senator knows today
that. if he had sought medical treat
ment twenty years ago. OF even fifteen
years ago. the probabilities would have
been greatly in favor Of his recovering
his sight
But the treatment he has undergone
at the Episcopal Eye, Ear and Throat
Hospital has borne some fruit. There
are times when he can distinguish be
tween black and white. This IS more
than he has been able to do for the last
thirty years. His eye has been neg
Iected so long. however, that the retina
has been destroyed IN some places. and
anything like the use OF his eyes for
reading or practical purposes is de-
SPARED Of by. himself and his physicians.
The Senator will continue the treat
ment for another week IN the hope that
he may be enabled 10 distinguish OBJ
jects well enough to find his way about
the Senate chamber unaided.

TAFT'S BIG LEAD.

According to calculations,
based on figures conceded by the
Allies" Secretary Taft will re-
ceive on the first ballot 551 votes,
or sixty more than enough TO
give him the nomination, pro-
vided the convention does not
override the decisions now being
made in contested cases.
One week ago the ALLIES"
conceded that Taft would have
$50 delegates on the temporary
roll. Since then the national
committee has added ninety-two
votes to the Taft column, by
seating delegates in contested
cases who either are instructed
for or pledged to Taft.
There remain 70 be decided
contests for 133 seats. The al
lies" believe that Taft will get at.
least 100 of these. Manager
Hitchcock expects that his can
didate will get practically all of
them.
