Tlio eliuinerntlon of inmates in the va
rious Institutions for the education of
the hlluil In the United States for the year
18M)KHve:i,0iM pupils I mil told that the
most general popular error In reaped to
these Institutions Is thatthej are asylums.
It Is rare, even ainotiK educated persons, to
hear a school for the hlluil spoken of ex
cc.pt ii.h u "hllnd asylum." The very word
"asylum" carries with It the thought of it
treat and coullncmetit and restraint, of a
permanent separation lictwccn parents and
children, and the utter destruction of all
the home freedoms. A prejudice Ih created
against the school hy this wonl In the mlnils
of parent and children iin soon as It Is
spoken In their hearing; anil yet It Is a fact
that, In the United Slat's, asylums for the
hliudnrc not maintained hy the stales, nor
is there In this country an asylum for the
lillnd. Another error Ih the regarding of
these Institutions as only for those totally
blind. They are for al those whose slht
Ih ho defective as to preent them from net
tiiiK an education in schools for the seeing
Only nlsiut one half of the pupils in the
Kentucky Institution for the Illinil are
totally hlluil. Still another error isthc lie
lief that the blind children, when sent to
the Institution, remain fortheallotted time
without IteiiiK allowed to return home till
the course Is completed. Ou the contrary,
it is far from tlio intention of those man
HKliiK the institution to destroy the ties Im.
tweeii the child and Its home It Is the
wish of the Ismrd of visitors, and of all who
have any share in the work of tench Iiik the
blind, that the home ties should he main
tained in all their force. For tills reason
the children its in any other IsiardliiK
school -k) homediiritiK the summer ant
lion, and c en In cases where the parents
are too poor to clothe the child the, state
provides elolhlliK
A III.INI) I'llVHIOUKllHT.
Many people think that money is div
manded from the parents for the care of
their blind ehlldien This is not no. Like
any other of the public schools of the state,
of which the Institution for the Blind Is
properly a branch, 110 charge Ih inmh for
tuition. Hoard is free to all, books are
supplied by the United State government,
and the state-allows the board of isitors
to furnish blind children with elotliiiiK,
upon lliu (erlMlcuto of the jude of the
count) in which the parents1 reside that
they aie too poor to pay for the needed ar
tides In addition, every pupil who com
plctcs the full course of instruction satis
factorily receives a top) of the Bible and
other books in raised Utters that may lie
deemed suitable
An inspection of the Institution and the
method of teaching blind children is most
interesting. The superintendent, Dr 11
U. HiintiMiu, has been In change for twenty
j ears A man of inventive Kcniu- he has
perfected scores of method and appliances
for teaching the sihth ss, and he is rccoK
ni.ed in this country and abroad as one of
the most successful men cn'UKcd in the
Kood work. He was a pioneer In the do
velopment of printing for the blind, and
was the lirst to set up a cy Under press that
could Ih.- successfully run 011 raised letter

In the institution there are nlxiut lot)

superintendent says that, the blind learn

whose meiuts-rs education does so much.
It lifts them from a position of helpless
dependence to an equality with their fcl
lows in islucatioii and Intelligence; It
makes them In most cases able to main

others. Only about W per cent of the
blind children in this country go to school.
There seems lo Is-no way of reaching the
