WOULD PREVENT ACCIDENTS
j WHICH CAUSE BLINDNESS

NEW YORK, Sept. 7 (By The As
ISOLATED Press):-Because of the
growing seriousness of accidents in
public places and in homes, as well
as Ia Industry, as a cause of blind
ness, the National Committee for the
Prevention of Blindness has an
nounced that 1t would undertake i'm
msdiately a progressive census of
all eye accidents with a view of de-
termining means of prevention. This
decision, the committee declares,
grew u of the recent realization
that there has come about a radical
change in the incidence of the vari-
Gus principal causes Of blindness.
The committee has discovered, for
instance, that whereas not many
years ago the greatest single cause
OF blindness in children was babies
sore eyes" the percentage of blind
ness from this cause has been cut
in half. Blindness caused by acct
dents of various sorts, on the other
hand, has increased to such an ex-
tent in recent years that accidents
now constitute the most serious
single cause of blindness.
An effort will be made to secure a
record of every accident causing an
injury to the eye whether it occurs
III a factory, in a home, or on the
street. This census will gradually
be extended into every state in the
&Ynion. The results will be tabulated
E8y principal causes and analysed
monthly. A month to month COM
parison of the records of this census
will enable the committee and it's
many cooperating agencies through
out the country to learn whether
as Is now believed-the number of
cases of blindness through accidents
is steadily increasing. and against
which causes of accidents the ener-
giles of the committee should be
directed.

Robert Mcconnell, an oldtime trapper who returned to Dawson recently from the Upper Klondike valley, where he spent the wiwnter brought in a fine line of furs of various kinds, and among them a freak specimen which has been ex- citing considerable comment among fur fans. Some think the animal from which it was taken was an off-shot of the tiger family, as it has markings not unlike that royal outlaw of the tropics. The strange new pelt is thirty-eight inches long and has an average width of eight inches. It is a sort of tan color, and has markings on the breast and along the ribs similar to those of large striped gray house-cat. Some think perhaps some old feline stray ed into the hills. and formed an alliance with some other denizen of the forest in bringing out a new line of fur bearing creatures, while others say possibly it was just an evolution of Old Tom himself
