Few inventions have conferred a greater blessing on the human race than that which assists impaired vision. It is impossible to say how many there are at the present day whose lives would be almost valueless were it not for the use of spectacles. Indeed, Dr. Johnson rightly expressed his surprise that such a bene? factor as the discoverer of spectacles should have been regarded with indiffer? ence and found no worthy biographer to celebrate his ingenuity. Unfortunately, however, his name is a matter of much uncertainty; and hence a grateful poster? ity have been prevented bestowing upon his memory that honor which it has so richly merited. But it may be noted that popular opinion has long ago pronounc? ed in favor of Spina, a Florentine monk, aB the rightful claimant, although some are in favor of Eog?r Bacon. Monsieur Spoon, in his "Researches Cnrieuses d'Antiquite," fixes the date of the inven? tion of spectacles between the years 1280 and 1311, and says that Alexander de Spina, having seen a pair made by some other who was unwilling to communicate the secret of their construction, ordered a pair for himself, and found them so use ful that he cheerfully and promptly made the invention' public. According to an Italian antiquary, the person to whom Spina was indebted for his information was Salvino, who died in the year 1318, and he quotes from a manuscript in his possession an epitaph which records the circumstance: "Here lies Salvino Ar moto d'Armati, of Florence, the inventor of spectacles. May God pardon bis sins. The year 1318."?London Standard. Lost Fart of his Brain and Lived. Gbeenwood, Jone 8.?About ten days ago Daniel Simpson, a 10-year-old boy employed in the Greenwood cotton mills, was caught by a belt and thrown violently against a piece of casting, which resulted in fracturing his skull and driving a piece of bone into his brain. Doctors G.P. Neel and B. W. Cobb were called in as soon as possible, and after ascertaining the ex? tent of his injuries, there was thought to be but little hope of his recovery. The plucky physicians, however, determined upon an operation, which, as the result shows, was ably and skillfully performed. Nearly two square inches of the skull were removed, and with about one-half an ounce of brain substance and from four to five pints of blood were lost. Despite all this on the eighth day after the accident the boy was considered well and dismissed from the care of the physi? cians. He is now np and playing as other children and beyond any possible danger of death from his injuries. Dr. Neel will exhibit the boy to the State Medical Association at Anderson next Tuesday and make a statement of the case. This will be a valuable contribu? tion to medical science, as such instances are rare.?Greenville News. When There were no Matches. Young men, even middle aged people, accustomed to the convenience of the modern lucifer match, can hardly imagine the time when the tinder box, with its clumsy flint and steel and broad brimstone matches, was the only means of procuring a light. Some people were more skillful than others in striking a light and blowing the.sparks and match to a flame; but often on a winter morn? ing it was a weary work with the servant who had to kindle the first fire, if the tinder happened to be damp or worn out, or the flint and steel in a temper. Indeed, in many houses a rnsh light was in some bed room or other always burned, so that in case of sudden illness, or any disaster, there might be a light ready. The rush light, having, as its name implies, a rush wick, was about fifteen inches long, and was burnt in a huge perforated shade; it was the "farthing rush light," which very poor people were said to use for other purposes than a night light. The picture of a half starved seam tress in her garret would, in those days, have been incom? plete without the thin rush candle; but its flame was so feeble that I can hardly fancy any eyes could have served to thread a needle by it. Too Strange for Explanation. Mrs. Smith, widow of the late Joel Smith, died at her home near Fork Shoals recently in circumstances so strange that there is no explanation. Mrs. Smith's husband died several months ago. He had not been dead long before she announced to her people that he would come back for her and she would go with him. The members of the family tried to remove from her mind the belief in her rapidly approach? ing death. Despite their efforts, she im? mediately began to prepare her burial clothes and when she had finished them calmly announced that her husband had returned to her. She went to her room, dressed in her burial clothes and shook hands and said good-bye to all in the house. She then lay down on a sofa and in ten minutes was dead. What she had said came true. The Btrange Btory.is vouched for by good people. A News reporter tried to obtain more information of it, but could find no one who could give more definite statements?Greenville News, May Zlst. ?

Mendrix McLane Hunting Up a Cor? ruption Fcml.. ? Boston, June 1.?Some .days ago I there was sent out to prominent Republi? cans in Massachusetts a call for a confer , ence to consider the subject of Republican politics in the South. It was signed by Ex-Governor John D.Lung, Roger Wol cott, president of the Republican Club of Massachusetts, E JB. Hayes, its secretary, and otberB. The time.of the conference was Bet for this afternoon, and the place the Tremont House. It was preceded by a banquet, and thirty persona were pres? ent. Governor Long was to have presid? ed, but he was called away very suddenly and mysteriously. President Wolcott sent a note of regret at his inability to be present,- and Secre? tary Hayes could not leave his desk at the rooms of the Republican Club. In fact, there seemed to' bo no one present of those who signed the call. Dr. Edward E. Hale was present, however, and he was called to the chair, which he very acceptably occupied until he, too, was obliged to leave, after which Dr. Geo. B. Loring, of Salem, filled the chair. There were in attendance, besides those whose names have been mentioned, Ex-Senator E. P. Wilbor, Edward Fitzwilliams, Henry B. Blackwell, Dr. Bowker, Coun? cillor A. W. Tufts, L. Edwin Dudley, John L. Whiting, A. G. Stevens and Nathan Appleton, *of Boston, and J. Hendrix McLane, of South Carolina. Mr. McLane described political condi? tions in the South, and said the election in 1890 was a fair one, the first of the kind in fifteen years. He said South Carolina could be made a moro Republi? can State than Massachusetts was to-day. What was needed to do this was to send some one down there to form Republican clubs and tell the people what the great principles of the party were. Every year the interests of the North and South were becoming more closely allied. Very Boon they would both want a protective tariff, as the North did now. The Republican League, he said, had done a great' work in the South, and the clubs were formed in harmony as to principles with the National League of Republican clubs. Money was needed to carry this work on in South Carolina. A man who had the conrage to do this work must take his life In his hands. Three thousand dol? lars was needed, though $2,000 would do. They wanted to unite the better class of both whites and colored people in the foundation of the Republican party in the South, and would be able to do this. Some of the best people in the South sympathize with the movement. All that was needed was to have the princi* pies of Republicanism explained to the Southern people. South Carolina was better fighting ground than Massachu? setts. It was better than West Virginia, Only three Republican members of the Legislature in South Carolina were color? ed men. The South was coming to feel a sympathy with the Republicans of the North on economic questions. A large element of the white people of the State had become convinced that the time had arrived for a division of the South on questions of national interest. Dr. Edward E. Hale, who had recently been on a trip through the South, spoke of what he had Been, and said he sympa? thized with objects for which the confer? ence had been called. He endorsed Mr. McLane very cordially, and said that moral forces must be used in this matter. He favored the plan proposed. Ex-Congressman Robert T. Davis, of Fall River, made an appeal for aid for these sturdy Republicans in the South in their battle against the organization of the Democrats. He did not see why Republican Congressmen from the North did not stand firm on the subject of pro? tecting the colored men of the South in their political rights. L. Edwin Dudley, of the Law and Order League, said he had been interest? ed in the question of the enfranchisement' of the colored people for a long time, and he believed every man entitled to vote should be allowed to deposit his ballot and have it counted for the candi? date he favored. Nathan Appleton said he had been a citizen of South Carolina for some years, The Republican party ought not to be made a sectional party through the shot? gun, tissue ballots or intimidation of voters. After the speaking, which was contin? ued for two or three hours with closed doors, some money was raised, to be used in organizing Republican clubs in South Carolina and spreading the gospel of pro? tection and Republicanism throughout every part of that State. John L. Whit? ney, A. T. Stearns and Nathan Appleton were appointed a committee to have the custody of the money already subscribed, and to raise the rest that was needed. The committee will hold a meeting to? morrow in the office of L Edwin Dudley. ?Springfield Republican.
