MANY PERSONS SOUND BLIND
Peculiar AffIiction That II Is Now
Asserted Is Not Uncommon
Among Mankind.

Coler blindness is by no means an
uncommon complaint. for many peo-
plc, although they may possess per-
feet eyesight for reading or seeing
long distances, are quite unable to dis
tinguish between green and red and
many other pairs of colors. Lately 1t
has been found that some suffer from
an exactly similar affection of the
hearing power-that is, an inability to
distinguish particular shades OF sound.
A school teacher reports boy who
could not distinguish at all between
the sounds of "very." perry" and
"Polly," and yet he could hear at as
great distance as anybody. Another
youngster would spell Different
"drifent." He said that was how II
sounded to him. Several others ran
the letters ar" ''n" and 81" together in
a hopeless way, being unable to tel
one from the other.

pirioible Launches AirpIane.

An unusual aeronautic experiment
was tried recently at Rockaway Beach,
L. L. when an airplane, suspended
from one of the navy's ''Blimps, was
released at an elevation of 5000 feet.
An illustration in the April Popular
Mechanics shows the plane just at the
moment of launching. A cable about
100 feet in length, attached to the dir
igible, was supplied with a con-
trivance which gripped the center Sec
ton of the top plane, and which could
be instantly released by the pilot.

vincenzo Giotti was native of
Bologna, born about 1880. He became
q scholar of Dionysius Calverte at the
time athat Guido REM studied under
that master. At twenty years of age
he went to Rome in company with
Guido. and there painted some pic
lures. He was then invited to the
court of Naples. where he passed the
remainder of his life. Giotto possessed
so ready an invention, and such sur
prisang facility, that Orlando states,
from list of his works, found after
his death, that he had painted no fewer
than 218 pictures for public positions
In the different towns of the kingdom
Of Naples. He died at Reggie In 1886.

To judge by reservations and bookings already made, the whole adult population of the cuIntry, from Maine to Califor- mia, would like to be aboard"
