The operation will consist of the transplanting of rabbit' eyes, and which has been successfully done, so it is claimed, in two or three cases. Mr. Bcslin's optic nerves are in good con-dition, and he therefore has hopes of the experiment proving successful in his case. In that event the result will not only be of the greatest personal benefit to him, but it will be a great triumph for surgical science and bring hope to the blind generally. If for no other reason than to promote surgical science Mr. Beslin should bo furnished with the means to defray the expenses of this operation. But in ad-dition to this he has some personal claims on tho community. Although tstally blind he has earned his own living, and has in no way become a burden to any one. He is a rare ex-ception, for blind people are naturally unable to support themselves. Mr. Beslin has made many warm friends in Salt Lake, and we have reason to o that ho will have but little trouble in raising the money he desires. In response to the recent appeal of The Times, the Daughters of Rebecca propose to assist Mr. Beslin, and with that objoct in view they are preparing a benefit entertainment. We hope that it will be a grand success, and wo be-lieve that it will bo. The Patriotic Sons of America, although only twenty-si-in number in this city, have guaran-teed to raise $100. The amount needed by Mr. Besliu is about 2000, and with proper effort it can be easily raised. IN HF.1UI.F (IF THE BLIND EDITOR. The Times a few days ago made an appeal in behalf of Mr. Frank P.

There is probably no doubt whatever but that the strike on the New York Central railroad and its branches is de-clining, and, after a few more hopeful bulletins from labor headquarters have been issued, a complete collapse will take place. , This is the usual history of all such movements against a powerful and resourceful corporation. It is not the desire of The Times to inquire too diligently into tho causes that led to tho strike, since the reports are con-flicting, but it is surely a sad commen-tary on the liberal policy of the Cen-tral that its rejected from the first all offers at a compromise. Surely Mr. Webb would not have hu-miliated himself in the eyes of tho world if he had given a courteous hear-ing to the representatives of the knights of labor even if ho had found it impos-sible to acquiesco iu their demands. From this distance it would seem as if tho boasted generosity of the Vander-bil- t road was duo in tho past to the in-ordinate ambition of the president, Channcey M. Depew. As a standing presidential candidate ho could not afford to spoil his chance with the work-Ingme-but now that he is abroad, hobnobbing with royalty, no blame can attach to him, and Mr. Webb, acting, no doubt, under orders, snubs tho em-ployes just as Jay Gould did in the memorable Missouri strike a few years ago. , WilKKK THIS TIMES 19 FOlt SALE.

The cable brings the announcement of the death of Cardinal Newman in England. He was one of tho foremost Roman Catholics in that country, and his career, owing to the fact that he was formerly a distinguished Protest-ant, is of an interesting character. John Henry Newman, who was born in 'London in 1801, was educated at Trinity college, Oxford, from which in-stitution he graduated in 1820, and in 1822 he was elected follow of Oriel col-lege. He there attracted the attention of Dr. Whateley, who employed him in the preparation for publication of his well known Treatise on Logic, and se-cured him a position as contributor to tho Encyclopedia Metropolitana. He was ordained in 1824, and for three years he acted as of St. Allan's hall, having been given that position by Dr. Whateley, who was tho head of the institution. In 1827 he re-signed, in order to accept a tutorship iu his own college. In 1828 he was presented with the vicarago of St. Mary's, Oxford, iu which church tho sermons which he delivered at a later period had an extraordinary influence in forwarding tho religious movement with which his name is permanently as-sociated. At this period Nswman was an earnest antagonist of the Roman Catholic church. He was one of those who transferred their support from Sir Robert l'eel to Sir Robert Inglis on the occasion of the former introducing the Roman Catholic relief bill, and ho was one of the most active in commenc-ing and carrying on the Ox-ford movement, the great object of which was to counteract as well the Romanizing as the dissenting tenden-cies of the time by restoring and bring-ing into notice what he and his friends believed to be tho Catholic character of the English church. With this view he commenced in 1833 his Oxford Tracts, to which he was one of the chief con-tributors, and in 1S38 he become editor of the British Critic, an organ of the samo views, and in conjunction with Drs. Pusey and Keble bo also became editor of the Library of Translations from the Greek and Latin Fathers. His tracts, however, became distasteful to the Anglican authorities and at the re-quest of the Bishop of Oxford he discon-tinued them, and In 1843 the British Critic, which advocated thesame views, was also discontinued. Newman finally determined to a Roman Catholic, and in 1845 he was admitted to that church. In a work on tho Development of Doctrine he explained the process through which his mind had passed. Goiug to Rome ho was admitted to orders in the church, after he had duly prepared himself. On his return to England in 1848 ho es-tablished a branch of the congregation of the oratory of St. Philip Hori, of which he was appointed the superior. In 185i he was appointed rector of the Catholic University in Dublin, where he remained for live years. He next established In Birmingham a school of higher studies for the youth of the Ro-man Catholic religion. In 1870 he was made a cardinal. Dr. Newman, in addition to the works above named, was the author of a large number of others, nearly all of a relig-ious character. He was a very busy man during his whole lifetime, and in his death tho Roman Catholic church loses a vory distinguished member. His early Protestant training, however, had left deeply-roote- d traces in his charac-ter, aud he remained to the end a liberal though a staunch Catholic. Indeed, Pope Pious IX hesitated loug before he bestowed the cardinal's hat upon the erudite Englishman. Notwithstanding the great learning represented in the cardinal's college, Newman was easily at tho head as a scholar. His influence among his countrymen was powerful, and led to the conversion of many prominent and inftueutial Englishmen to tho Catholic church. His death at the ago of nearly 90 years, though sud-den, will creato no surprise, but will rather call attention to the other ven-erable and gifted cardinal. Manning, who also was originally a Protestant, and who also stands in tho shadow of a century. Who is there to fill the place of such men as these! ARRIVALS AJiil CLOSE OF AXILS'.

The Gold King mill at Telluride has just delivered nine gold retorts, with a weight of 800 pounds and total value ot $.r)9,l)2. This was the result of a run of thirty-liv- e clays. The Aspen authorities are still hunt-ing for Marion Cook, tho defaulting ciiy clerk who made his escape from the county jail and whom, it is sup-posed came west to extinguish his iden-tity in the busy whirl. If there were a tariff put on talk tho long winded discussions in tho senato would suddenly stop. Count Tolstoi may be a gifted crank, but there is a wonderful method in his madness for free advertising. The contract for the erection of tho new city and county building will come before the council this evening. There are three bids to be considered, and the whole matter will probably be referred to the proper committee. MONTANA NOTES. Butte entertained tho Montana G. A. R. "boys" in royal style last week. The special administrator in the cel-ebrated Davis will contest that was re-habilitated in Butto was appointed yes-terday morning. The cable cars at Butte are about to begin their campaign. The power houso has been completed and the ma-chinery is ready for the word. The work of cleaning up the Ana-conda and St. Lawrence is progressing rapidly. From the latter some ore is being hoisted, but several days will be required to put the Anaconda on a shipping basis. It is reported that a syndicate with 2,000,000 has been organized for tho publication of ponny newspapers in tho interest of Grover Cleveland in seven of the largest cities of the country. This may be put down as a fairy story. It is safo to say that David B. Hill will not lose any sloep on account of it. During a storm in Denver yesterday several fires were started by the electric wires crossing each other or coining in contact with telegraph or telephone wires. The same thing is liable to happen in this city, and something Bhould be done to prevent It. There is certainly great danger in tho electric wires, and too much precaution canuot be exercised. WYOMING WAIFS. Heavy frosts were experienced in Centennial valley last week. Bonds in the sum of $0500 are to be issued for tho erection of a city hall at Castle. The Harsch mine at Atlantic City wus recently sold to Denver parties for $10,000. A brilliant meteor, visible from Lar amio City, passwl over the mountains about 1 o'clock Wednesday morning last. A short run on its aerial course and it exploded, tho report being audi-ble in the town. There is considerable excitement over the recent gold discoveries near the head of Tongue river, and thousands of souls are direeted toward the locality. It is claimed that as much as $25 per day has been made to the miners. Tub highest temperature in Salt Lake City this summer, according to official report, was 00 degrees. In the east this would cause a precipitate exodus, but . in this climate, tempered as it is by a lack of humidity, we scarcoly feel any inconvenience from tho heat. And when the evening sets in the cool moun-tain breezes are positively refreshing. Give us Salt Lake for a summer resort par excellence. DOINGS OF ROYALTY. The little crown prince of Germany has already been entered as a university student. The czar of Russia's latest whim has been to utter an edict forfjdding ap-plause in the theatres of St. Petersburg. The German empress has four little sons whom Bhe is with constantly. She dresses them in sailor suits of navy blue with white trimmings. The emperor of Germany has issued new regulations by which officers are forbidden to ride any horses at races but those that are their own property or that of brother officers. Prince Herbert Bismarck cherishes carefully the wreck of a watch which he carried during the Franco-Prussia-n war, and which stopped a bullet that other-wise might have ended his life. The Eugenie has presented touching gift to the Empress Freder-ick. It is a gold medallion, of great artistic beauty, bearing her coat of arms as Countess of Montijo, richly set with turquoises, rabies and emeralds. It con-tain a lock of the giver's hair. The king of Sweden is reported recent-ly to have remarked: "I am truly sorry not to be able to spend half a day incog-nito with Prince Bismarck at Fried-ricsruh- e. Persons whom I esteem and honor so highly as I do Prince Bismarck become doubly dear to my heart when they step aside from the greater part of mankind." Einperor William, who seeks to imi-tate in all things his illustrious ancestor, King Frederick the Great, has recently adopted the latter's taste for white horses. Since the death of the hero of the "Seven Years' War," almost 130 years ago, horses of that color have been excluded from the royal and imperial stables at Berlin. In the untimely death of John Boyle O'Reilly a historic figure of the last presidential struggle has passed away. It was O'Reilly who threw himself in tho breach for Cleveland when Pat Ford and the other Irish radicals bolted the democratic ticket for Blaine and Logan. So powerlul was O'Reilly's in-fluence with the people that in conjunc-tion with Burchard's blunder, ho largely stemmed the tide that was drifting Blainoward. We notice that tho New York Central has employed Piukerton detectives to protect its property and to othorwiso assist in suppressing the strike. It is about time that the Piukerton army be suppressed. When a state cannot pro-tect life and property, without the assist-ance of the Piukertous, it is surely iu a lamentable condition. In Illinois there is a law against tho employment of any such armed force as tho Pinkertons, and we believe that Nebraska has a similar law. Those two states feel competent to handlo their own affairs without the assistance of a lot of paid hirelings, and New York ought to be able to do the same thing. IDAHOAN HINTS. The fire at Wallace destroyed prop-erty of tho value of a half million dol-lars. The Wood River Times reports heavy mortality among the youth of that lo-cality, c Tho Clayton concentrator is handling a large consignment of ore from the Ella mine. . The enterprising garroters robbed James E. Knnpp in Caldwell of 1405 and made good their escape. Four men who wore arrested for blowing the depot safe nt Bellvue were discharged at the preliminary. A train of ten wagons and as manv families passed through Eagle Rock from Nebraska on Tuesday last. Alturas county reports unprecedented activity among the mines. Large amounts of machinery are goiug in. Governor Shoup admonishes tho vo-ters that "the spirit and intent of the registration law must be complied with." The primaries for the selection of delegates to the county conventions were hold throughout Idaho on Satur-day last. E. C. Manson wlro has been chief dis-patcher at Pocatello has been removed to Ogden where he settles down iu a similar capacity. Idaho papers aro calling attention to the fact that the stato is infested by quack doctors and other fakirs of equal-ly pernicious type. Considerable building is in progress at Caldwell, and another year will make notable improvements in the architectural features of the town. The smelter at Ketchum promises to be in operation again before the expira-tion of the month. This means a great deal for the Wood River country, as well as for tho entire stato. Mr. Griffith, who has charge of con-struction on the Snake river ditch and flume, states that tho placers are all that has been claimed for them, and that extensive operations will soon be in progress. Frank Bowman and L. II. Willet of Eagle Rock landed fifty-si- x pounds of trout in four hours last week. This traces its authority to the Register and Wheeier won't lie for fifty pounds un-less they be legal tender." The Avalanche reports excellent pro-gress on the tunnel by which it is to drain the Oro Fino mine at Silver Bow. The volume of watrr to be tapped is enormous and the task an exceedingly dangerous one. NOVELTIES IN SILVERWARE. Tooth brushes are mounted in silver repousse work. Jardiniere stands are made to hold seven aud eight porcelain pots made from plated silver. Glove boxes and handkerchief boxes of silver have bands of repousse work, and the object of the box engraved on the top. Silver scollop shells and individual dishes for entrees are in new designs, the most conspicuous of which is a tor-toise. Silver cheese holders are desirable for table use.
