STORM GATEWAY
TO PENNSYLVANIA
Russian Forces That OverraD Buko-
wilma Province Capture the Kiri-
baba Pass.

LONDON, Jan. 1S.-While the main
Russian army has been busy repelling
what Grand Duke Nicholas in his Of
iicial report describes as a series of vi
olcut attacks by Field Marshal Won
lIiudcnburg, to break, his way through
to Warsaw, other Russian forces have
stormed and taken kirlibaba pass on
the borders of Pennsylvania and have
made further kprogress in their ud-
vance along the right bank Of the Wis
tuIa toward the German frontier.
The Germans in force have deliver
ed seven successive attacks which de
veloped into desperate bayonet fight
ing on the Russian lines on the left
bank Of the Nistula and have succeeded
iu taking one Of the Russian advance
trenches.
Further south there have been sims
liar attacks, in each case preceded by
heavy artillery engagements. The Rus
slams have succeeded in silencing. the
heavy Austrian guns, which from the
banks of the Donaiec have been bonn
barding the town of Tarnow.
The capture Of Kirlibaha Pass.
through which roads lead into the
heart OF Transylvania, is likely to
have a political as we'll as military
effect It will possibly hasten the ac-
tjon Of Rumania and will compel the
Germanic allies to send troops for the
defense of Eastern Hungary.
With the retirement of Count Won
Berchtold. the former Austro- Hunga
rian Minister Of foreign Affairs. who
bis said to have favored another expe-
| dition against Servia and because OF
| the greater inhuence'o Of the Hungarian.

of important bills will come up for con
sideration today, among them senate
bill 81, relating to superior Judges This
bill met with some opposition in the
Judiciary committee, although it was
finally reported favorably.
Warner \. Graham opposed it on the
ground that, Us the superior court was

fewer complications If instead OF pass
ing this bill the legislature took step,
to abolish the superior Judges positions
and then rccreate them if it SO desired

Morse, and the bill with its slight
amendments will probably pass the

| The desire OF the members of the

BLIND EYE MADE GOOD.
Operation Has Peculiar Effect of Re-
storing SIGHT.

SP~i aIioh EaaS T0COtidF GHeCI 9T re-
storing Sight.
An operation for appendicitis per-
formed on Ralph Won Hacht. aged
twenty three, of Milford, Conn. has
resulted in the restoring 20 the young
man Of the sight of one eye, which
had been blind since his birth
The operation was performed by Dr.
Francis Campbell and members of the
staff of Trinity hospital, New York.
When the physicians removed Won
Fachts appendix several weeks agn
they had no idea that they were going
TO restore his sight. 1t seems. how
ever, that the appendix had baen rest
ing against one of the large nerves
that form part of the system which
connects with the optic nerves
After the operation. Won Hacht for
the first time in his life distinguished
darkness from light with his blind eye
Soon he began to see objects with the
eye. He was warned by the doctors
not to exert his blind" eye too much.
but to allow it TO grow stronger gradu-
ally. He said that the blind" eye was
nearly as good as the other eye.
