CHICAGO, Jan. 23.-Blind from
birth, DR.. Jacob w. Bolotin. at the
age of twenty-five, has demonstrated
to the world that answering ambl-
ton and courage conquer seemingly
impossible obstacles and that success
is a matter of determination.
He has Just received an appoint
ment as head physician at tn Hi
nois tuberculosis Hospital, posi-
ton that requires extraordinary abil-
ity in diagnosis, definite knowledge
of temperatures and extreme care in
detecting the varied symptoms of
that dread disease
Sightless, never using a thermome-
ter, unable to note any of the danger
signals which present themselves to
the experienced eye of other phvsi-
clans. DIR. Bolotin won his appoint
ment by nine months in which he
demonstrated his special fitness for
the work. The path to his profess
sion was a hard one. He determined
to become a physician while studying
at a school for the blind. His first
problem was a lack of funds. He
solved this by acting as travet4g
salesman. always making his trips
alone. It took four years to save
enough to pay for his college edu-
cation
During his years at the medical
college he forced his fingers to do
the work of sightless eyes. In dis
secting room and chemical labora-
tory he became especially adept and
thorough in his knowledge. Unable
to take notes his mind was trained
to record lastingly the lectures to
which he listened. He hired a nurse
to read to him from the necessary
text books.
Specializing on diseases of the lungs

Mrs. Johnston, Who Named
Her Stepmother, Gets Divorce

NEW YORK, Jan. 23.-Mrs. Har-
riet L. Johnston, of New Rochelle, was
granted an interlocutory decree of
divorce yesterday from her husband,
Harold d. Johnston, manager of the
Colonial Life Insurance Company,
whose office Is in Jersey City. by Su-
preme Court Justice Tompkins, of
Westchester county. Justice Temp
kins found that the evidence intro
duced by Johnston in his cross-action,
in which he named the Marquis Lu-
dovico Roccasecca, was not weighty
enough to establish Mrs. Johnston's
guilt. Mrs. Johnston named her/step-
mother, Mrs. Anna J. Richardson.
In her testimony Mrs. Johnston al
legged that her husband had moved to
her fathers home, in Ridgewood, in
1911, but that he had been compelled
to leave some months later by her
father.
Later, Mrs. Johnston charges, her
husband and her stepmother lived
together in an apartment in New
York and in Mrs. Richardson's sum-
mer cottage. in Oak Bluffs, Mass.
Johnston was backed in his testimony
by his sister. Mrs. Evelyn Weeks, Of
Brooklyn. who testified as to Mrs.
Johnston's conduct with Marquis
Roccasecca in Europe. Justice Tomp-
kins found that the evidence brought
by the husband depended wholly on
incoherent statements made by Mrs.
Weeks and was not sufficient to en-
title him to q decree.

sentative Broadbeck, Of Pennsyl-

bravery of the men on the rescue
ship. Under the bill the crew of the

he favorably reported shortly.

ADOPT WOOD BLOCK
OVER MAYORS VETO

wood block pavement Is controlled By
monopoly and. Notwithstanding this
fact, we. find him signing contracts fo1
bltulithfc payements." said Mr.. Gill
len, I'm the case of bitulithlc there
are some of us who know that it is
monopoly, pure and simple, but ]
deny that wood-block isYcontrolled by
a monopoly"
Mr.. Gillen then went on to state
that there was some doubt in his
mind of the statement made by the
Mayor in his message regarding the
great saving there would be from the
reclipping and resetting of the old
blocks on Broad street.
Regarding the difference between
the heavy oil and the light oil used
in LAYING the pavement. Mr.. Gillen
said the board had made several in
spections and with the exception of
the granite block commissioner" had
come to the 'onclusion that the heavy
oil was by far superior. The city
engineer of Paterson eSpeN.7nv
had recommended the heavy oil to
the commissioners.
The business men of the city who
favored wood block had done consid-
cradle travelling and had inspected
wood block pavements in other cities,
Mr.. Gillen added. and should be in a
position to Judge good pavements.
IT think the Mayor is unreasonable
In many of his statements Mr.. Gill
len said, in conclusion.
The board passed a resolution ask
ing the Common Council to appro-
pirate $4,000 for the new diagonal
street across the meadow and bay
front zone connecting with Freling-
huysen avenue. The street will be
called Haynes avenue, in honor of
former Mayor Haynes.
Mr.. Gillen opposed the resolution,
declaring that he could not see the
benefit to be derived from such a
street which would involve a large
expenditure of money also.
Mr. Gillen declared the city's re-
sources should be applied to roads
connecting with the built-up portion
road claimed the chief benefit to be
derived was in diverting automobile
trucks and vehicles from the main
thoroughfares of the city.
This did not seem to be a benefit to
Mr.. Gillen, who opposed taking au-
tomobilists away from the heart of
the city. In his opinion the automo-
biles should run through the main
streets of the city instead of going
through meadow land and isolated
sections.
The other commissioners did not
share the same opinion, however
President Charles +. Kraemer eX-
planned that the new street did not
involve a large expenditure of money
because the assessments would be
levied on the adjoining properly.
Mr.. Ryan contended that it was a
decided benefit to have the trucks and
automobiles diverted from the main
streets of the town BECAUSE of the
damage they do to the paVements.
Mr.. Biertuempfel declared that the
street was to be named Haynes ave
nue. at the suggestion of City Counsel
James r. Nugent.
A communication was received from
the Board of Trade of West Hudson
County advocating a bridge over the
Passaic River between the Clay street
bridge and the Belleville bridge.
