Something of tho Method Explained by Her Tirclma Instrrctross—A Face That Mlrrora r. Soul Which Knows Naught of the Appenrrenco of Sin. The most interesting featuroof thoed ncntional congress was (ho appearance of Helen Keller under the hind nudskiil ful guidance of Miss Annie M. Sullivan, ' her teacher. When a babe, Helen Keller became blind, deaf and dumb. When Miss Sullivan, a young woman of unus ual beauty of form and feature, stood before tho audience beside a girl who, except for tho sad nign of blindness in tho largo eyes, pave promise of still greater beauty, ber face glistening with a rapture that, painters try to express in tho ecstacy of angels, hearts seemed to stand still. It was a face that had never consciously looked on tho distortions of passion or pain—the mirror of a soul that could not imagine the outward ap pearanco of sin {JOT remember any of tho discords of life. In her presence it avus hard to appre ciate tho fact that her world lay within ours, without sun, music r.r rpeech. No one who saw it will forget tho impulfivo fluttering of her young, white band Si it sought her teacher's face or round, white throat; the satisfaction when the Contact of her delicate white filler tips gave her what tight gives -.'a; U'o flush of light over her fuco when, with her forefinger resting on her teacher's lip, the read the answer to tho question r-he Lad asked by the twinkling digital move ment am her teacher's palm. There wore those Avho Avept when she repeated audibly, with a depth of feeling sho alone can feel: Tell me not in mournful numbers Life is but an empty dream. All were invited tc ask questions, yet not many did so. Tho occasion seemed sacred. "How did' yon teach her the first word?" some ono ventured at last. "Her first word was 'doll.'" was the answer. "I gave her tho doll, placed her finger on my lip and spoke the word. When she wearied of tho doll, I took it from her, and when I returned it again gavo tho movement of the lipß. The second word was 'mug.' I used the cup from which she drank, but becanio con vinced that sho had not a clear idea of the name, but that it meant to her also water or drink. 80 I one day took her to tho pump, and as the water was floAY ing into her cup had her hold her hand iv the stream, and then putting her fin-4 ger on my lip gave her the word 'water.' Then I again gave her the word 'mug.' The idea that everything had a name, the comprehension of nouns, was a great revelation to her and came then and all at once. Sho was greatly excited. A nurse, with the baby sister in her arms, was standing near. Helen immediately put her hand on its face to know its name. I told her 'baby,' and she caught it at once. Then she stooped down and patted tho ground to know what it Avas called. She learned many words that day, and those words eho ncvor forgot.' "How soon after sho learned words did sho frame sentences?" "Immediately." "Were verbs harder to learn than nouns?" "Not at all. I began with such words as 'sit,' 'stand' and the like that were easy to illustrate. Prepositions troubled her most." "How does she get an idea of the ab stract?" "I cannot tell. It seems to bo with her, or it comes." "Has she any distinguishing sense of musical vibrations?" "Yes, very distinct. Sho likes music." "Is her vocabulary large?" "Very large. She expresses herself fluently and is choice of wordß." "What books does she like best?" Every now and then the white fingers fluttered to the teacher's face for just one delicate touch—a finger look it was —and now they rested on Miss Sulli van's lip: "Tell—the — people — what — books— you—like—best." Helen's face waa an open book of her mental processes. Sho repeated each word after Miss Sullivan, but hesitated a little on tho words "tell" and "you," tha brightness of her face dimming for the instant. As soon as she compre hended the question, which she did in ad vance of its completion, the flash of intel ligence came, and when she turned to ward the audience, for she did not seem at any time to lose her location, she said with spirit: "Oh, I have read so much that it is very hard to say what I liko best, but"— waiting a moment —"' Little Lord Faunt leroy'"— Aud then followed rapidly tho names of several works, some of which, it Avould seem, could hardly be understood by any one who cannot know sound and color. "How do you road?" "By raised letters end by my teacher." "I noticed when you pronounced for her ybu articnlated with an exaggerated motion of tho lips," said one. "Is not that necessary?" "Her teaching was begun in thatxvay. Ido not think it is necessarj - or best. I attribute tho peculiarity of her voice to that mechanical action which she uses. I think it would havo been better and Just as easy if she had been spoken to with the usual movement." .In reply to the question of her knowl edge of the abstract, General Futon re marked that the greatest development in thu case of Helen Keller was that of the spiritual.—Memphis Appeal-Avalanche.

"Is the cocaiue habit growing-" "I should say it was. Why, about six years ago cocaine was 85 cents a grain, There was none of this widespread habit then. It has all grown up in recent years. Now the drug can bo purchased at retail at 3 cents a grain, and three or four drug stores iv this city sell it to its victim* in quantities to suit. Most of the reputa ble drug stores wiil not do thin, notwith standing the fact that the trade is.very profttable. They don't care to have bucli ■ etnas of en toman about them. But. tho habit, grov. \ and grow s and grows." "Is it very degrading?" "Dreadfully so. Now, here is a hypo dermic syringo I recently took from a West Point graduate, the son of an old general of the army. When he was i brought here, I added ittothecollcction there iv the case. Look at that syringe! Tho point of tho needlo has been broken and filed down, because the victim couldn't get money enough to buy a now ono. Why, it's enough to poison a man's entire system to iujeet tiiat dirt into his blood. But this West Pointer told me tho last time ho used tho syringe he took a penknife and gashed his arm and then stuck tho syringe into the wound. That's tho condition they get into." "What is tho effect of cocaine?" j "It has a local effect of numbing or : paralySiag the tissues immediately ! arOtUid tbe place where tho injection i i made, so yon can cut thoso tissues with out the patient's experiencing the slight est pain. So it is used iv small surgical operations. But in addition to the local effect it has a general effect of exhilara tion. Peoplo nnder its influence can do a great deal of work and go without sleep. But tho effect wears off iv about a quarter of an hour, requiring additional injections to maintain it. Morphine, on tho other band, has an effect lusting from j six to eight hours."—lnterview With a I Physician In San Francisco Examiner. GIGANTIC COMPLICATIONS. TLo Lombard Investment Company's Troubles Only .lust liegun. Now that tho Lombard Investment company 11113 passed into tho hands of receivers, its me! hods and tho way iv which it was excluded from doing busi ness in Massachusetts will bo interest ing to tho many people who have had dealings with tho former concern. He sides investors in Now England many mortgages also wero taken in, England and Holland, and the consul general of Holland in New York lias been in re peated communication with Mr. J. Rus sell Reed, the state commissioner of foreign mortgage corporations (foreign meaning merely outside of Massachu setts) regarding tho interests of Dutch mortgitge holders in this much adver tised company. All summer thero has been an effort to find trustworthy men among those interested who would take hold of the corporation and make the best of its as sets for the benefit of the holders of the mortgages. About »:ia,000.000 in guar anteed mortgages are now in tho hand:! of purchasers from the company on which the company had a contingent lia bility. It is tho belief of Mr. Reed that up to the day the Company was put into the hands of receivers it might havo been continued if the right men could have been found to go into it. Mr. M. B. Whitney of Wostfield, who has held the presidency of tho company since the forced retirement of tho Lom bards, regarded himseli as an ail interim incumbent, put thero because he was acceptable to both sides, and he did not wish to hold tho place permanently. But as tho necessary men were not forthcoming tho receivership was brought about, and now it is likely that the business of closing up these compli cated relations, where so many persons and subordinate companies are con cerned, will not be ended for several years. —Boston Transcript. Dullness In the Theatrical Business. In theatrical affuirs at present the ex tremes of o iv -rsity do not meet; but, on the contrary, they lio a whole continent apart. California and the New England states are the hoodoo vicinities this year. In the small towns of New England the situation is deplorable. Thirty dollars were the gross receipts which several good combinations have earned in towns of from 15,000 to 25,000 inhabitants. In fact, many of the local managers are can celing their dates in sheer despair. After all, it is tho local manager wdK> is the biggest loser in a frost of this sort. The manager of the combination usually gets as his share 85 per cent of the gross re ceipts. Out of the remainder the pro prietor of tho theater has to pay the ex penses for light, fuel, ushers, etc. The thoatrical manager cuts down the sal aries of his company, but the lessee of the theater can't adopt such methods with his coal and gas bill. Warning to Bicyclists. H. B, Walker of Brooklyn started to ride on his bicycle to Red Bank, N. J., where he intended spending Sunday with hie wife, who had gone by train. He was riding along Bay street at a rapid pace when he ran into a ropo stretched across tho street to prevent travel when repairs were in progress. The rope caught him under the chin and hurled him backward from the wheel. He turned a somersault and struck on the back of his head. An ambulanco was summoned and he was taken to the Smith infirmary, where he died a few minutes after his arrival. His skull had been fractured. What Channcey M. Depew Reads. Tho sum of the whole matter is that the railroad man as a rule takes all the newspapers, reads about everything there is in each of them, acquires a fac ulty for doing it very rapidly, and then peruses the leading editorial in the paper of opposite political faith to tone him up and the one in the journal of his own faith to tone him down. No practical journalist knows more of what is in a newspaper than a practical railroad tr*an. —New York World. Instructive Prairie Fires. Hi; hon, 8.

An Adventure With Hl-Jiw»yme» Wlie BnlOAdeJ a Miner or HUOold and Bllrei and Where Rve»J*odjr to the Trlanfulpi Transaction Waa Satisfied. We had finished our gr.mo of whist on the train when one of tho players, a red 'leaded man, s*kli "Your speaking ol narrow escapes reminds mo of one I hud years ago in the Sierras. Buckey< Honje," hi eontinned, "i 3 a public tar em amid tho mountains of southern Plumas county aud is a lonely spot, being surrounded by dense forests of spruce and pine. On the nignt of .Tune 4,187—, I stopped there aud was told by the proprietor that a highway robbery had been committed in the vicinity dur ing the preceding day. This made m* exceedingly uncu.-y. for I was carrying 112,300 in grfi fibnck ' into the mountain* to invest in .- qnsrta mine. The money waa wrapped up In my bona blanket* nnd stowed wri? under the seat of tha buggy, wiii' 1 had abont *100 in gold and filter lil my pockets. "Shortly i leaving Buckeye tha road aacerx i v deep declivity and then crosses a cow, loeky. brush covered plateau, i. : ■ .nii.•.; farther on I passed Palmetto r., ■ ii. an abandoned stopping plaoe, where 1 again entered the delta* forest th::t ~:■■•>.• eio*e to the highway. I examined 1 v. uvcr carefully, placed fresh enp ion it. and laid it on the seat beside me ready for instant use. Noth ing occurred until I reached French man's hi)!, when as I was climbing one of the steepest parts I was suddenly stopped—so suddenly, in fact, that I hud no chance to defend myself. A man sprang into the road and caught my horses by (ho bridles, while a second robber uppparod from behind a tree, holding in his hands a shotgun at full cock. Tbe mart with the gun was a tall fellow with a squint eye and a red mustache, whilo tho other man was short and stout. " 'Throw up your hands.!' cried the ■quint eyed man in a harsh voice. I glanced at tho muzzle of tho gun and then at tho revolver on my seat. 'Up with your hands, or I'll give it to you!' and tlie look on the robber's face indi cated that ho meant what he said, so I reluctantly gave np all my ideas of de fense and slowly and mechanically raised my hands above my head, at the same time cursing my ill luck, for robbery at that time meant ruin to me. 'Git out nnd keep your hands up,' cried tho tall man, 'till .Tim takes yer money andyer popgun.' I got ont and walked to the head of tho horses as commanded and the short robber deftly examined my pockets and took what gold and silver I had, saying as he rattled, the coins, 'It pays to dTive hogs.' " 'Hogs!' I exclaimed. 'What do you mean by hogs?' " 'Oh, that's all right. He told us you were coming, and we laid in the brush for you,' was the response. *T glanced up at that second and brw a murderous look on the squint, eyed man's face, while his finger was on tho trigger of the gun. As I was stutiding close to the small robber, the weapon, of course, covered us both. I gave an involuntary start, which caused the short man to look up. His face blanched white as lie exclaimed, 'Take care there or you will shoot us both,' at the same time stepping back so as to bring my horse between himself and his companion's gnu. "I involuntarily followed his example, when the short man said in a low tone, 'I believe that rascal meant to kill us both. Now,' he continued in a loud voice, at the same time taking my pistol from the seat, 'yon pile right in and be off.' "I had supposed, of course, that they would search my buggy, and now that I was abont to escape.with my precious greenbacks my heart beat furiously and the blood rushed to my face as though I had just undergone great exertion. I hastily obeyed the injunctions of the robbers to 'drive on and keep a-going.' and as soon as 1 was ont of gunshot I whipped up and drove at full speed until I overtook a little old man, shabbily dressed, driving a lot of fat hogs with the aid of a small dog. '"The old man looked at me with somo astonishment as I drove rapidly up and cried, 'Say, did some fellers atop yer back thar?' " 'Yes,' was my reply. 'Did they rob your* "The old man laughed nnd slapped his leg and then laughed again ero he replied. 'Kinder curious how it turned out,' he said, 'but hanged if I knew any one was a-comin in a two hoss buggy.' " 'What do you mean?' I asked, for I aaw nothing funny in the whole matter, " 'Why, you see, them fellows stepped out in the road, right in front of my hogs, and cried for me to stop. This scared the hogs, and they broke out in the brush. I pretended not to understand what they meant, and sending Boze out on one tide I took the other, at the same time a-cues ing them chaps right lively for scaring my hogs. When I got 'em all back again, I turned around and said, "Now, what do you want?" " 'tSfiamj,' cried the tall fellow. 'Ail you've got.' " 'Money?' and I roared so you could have heard me half way back to Buck eye. 'Yon don't reckon that a chap as has got to go afoot and drive hogs for a living haa any money? If you want that, just stop the boss, who is coming pdcn/j ■ in a two hoBS buggy, and you will gr I some.' "'Get right on then,' said the tall chap, 'and we'll lay for the boss.' '"And they got your* continued the hog drover. T hope you did not lose much.' " 'A hundred dollars,' said I, 'hut I got off lucky at/hat.' " 'So did I,' said the old drover, with a grin, 'for I sold a part of my hogs on tho road and had the money with me. It was a caso of sheer bluff on my part.' " And of luck upon mino,' I answered. 'It was a narrow escapo for both of üß.'" —San Francisco Call. A National Pnoeral. Paris, Get.
