world OF science were cognizant of
what sufferers from the eyes would
find In DR.. Buffers famous method
and prescription glasses. The Won
derful achievements DO then perform
ed are now history. No phiianthro-
pist or benefactor ever won over to
him such an enthusiastic and loyal
army OF friends as DIR. Butler has
since his stay in Richmond.
DR.. Butler has fitted up for the deli
cate nature of his work handsome Of
ices at the corner Of Fourth and Main
streets.

BREAKS DOWN IN SPEECH,
OVERCOME BY EMOTIONS
Affecting Scene When Senator
TiIIman Cuts Short His Eu-
Iogy of Clay and DoIIiver.

So affected by his emotions and weak
ened by the illness with which he was
stricken IN the last session of Congress
as to be unable to continue, Senator Till
man of South Carolina yesterday after
noon sank sobbing into his seat shortly
after having begun a speech in eulogy Of
the late Senators Alexander s. Clay OF
Georgia and Jonathan p. Dolliver Of
Iowa. Senator Bacon of Georgia moved
hastily over and took a seat by the South
Carolinian. A few words from Mr. Bacon
in a measure restored the control of his
nerves to Mr.. Tillman and soon thereafter
he feebly left the chamber.
The scene was an affecting one, and
members on the floor and spectators in
the gallery visibly were moved. The at
tempt to speak at length was the first Mr.
rillman had made since his return to his
duties, and his friends had feared that it
might prove too great a tax upon his i'm
paired strength.
Mr.. Tillman's concluding words were:
"DolIiver, as We called him, was a
great man. Great men are plentiful in
this country, but not as great as Deliver
Good men are plentiful in this country
but not as good as Clay. They both have
left us and we know not how soon our
own time may come l feel that with
especial force. But-but l cannot go on
