Fort Madison. Dec 6.-Conined in
the Fort Madison penitentiary are
three men who are unable to perform
even the simplest Of tasks on account
Of their detective eyeslghl. Two Of the
inmates are totally blind, while the
third mans sight Is 80 bad that he
can barely distinguish any object, and
therefore all of them have nothing to
do to Keep the time from hanging
heavily on their hands.
Two Of the blind prisoners are serv-
ing life sentences, both having been
found guilty of murder; the third man
was given long sentence for break
ing and entering. How the man could
expect to steal something he could not
see is beyond the comprehension of all
who know his condition One Of the
men serving life murdered his wife and
then attempted to commit suicide by
shooting himself in the head. but his
placing Of the weapon was not proper
for fulfilling his intention, 80 instead
of killing himself he shot both eyes
out
The daily routine of the blind in
mates is practically the same. All of
them hive regular beats which they
traverse daily. and az al ce then: have
been members Of the institution. for
several years they manage to get
round the place nicely by themselves.
About the only time a guide is neces-
sary for them Is when going to the
dining room. where they can not find
their places without assistance Each
man has prisoner read to him nearly
every day. the reader usually being
one Of the men confined to the hospi-
tai. and as result Of having other in
mates read to them 50 often the three
are very we'll read and up TO date on
current events.
The blind trie are all very anxious
to work, as this would be a great re-
lief to them In Willing away the long
hours but after being assigned at diff
ferent tasks they were unable to per-
form them and were once more forced
70 pass the days the best they could.
On account Of having travelled the
sa me beats for such a long time the
three men have the distance which
such nicely that they walk right to
the end of the sidewalk and turn and
right back again without having TO
ever stop and feel around with the
canes which they carry.

Mason City Finds Roads Subject +
Light and Water Levy.


Mason City, Dec. 6.-That all rail-
road properties within the city limits
Of not only this city but other cities
OF Iowa. are subject to the light and
water levy. was a statement made to
the city commissioners today. Mason
City has been exempting a large part
OF the tax on railroads centering here
on both light and water. but from dis
trict and supreme court decisions 1t
seems to be anything but the correct
principle. The gentlemen presenting
this opinion have been looking over the
conditions in a number Of cities In
Iowa and states that the mistake TINS
city has made in not collecting these
levies, is common in Iowa cities. A
conference has been arranged which
will include city commissioners. coun-
ty supervisors. county auditor. assessor
and city attorney to take up this mat
Ter for adjustment before the ia tax
is collected 1t will amount to thous-
ands OF dollars.
