The action of the State Legisla ture, branding the Stat School for th Blind aa a "fire-trap," "stigma on, th stste." rotten from ceiling to founda tion." and similar remarks yesterday haa amused much sentiment here. When the legislator were here February IS and visited th Institution they com- j mended th management of the schools for the deaf and blind, but realize that what Is urgently needed Is more money for buildings, repairs and maintenance Thomas P. Clarke, superintendent of the State Schools for the Deaf and Blind, who has held that position for ix years, today aaid that ne aamiu conditions are not as they should be but that he was powerless to make them otherwise without sufficient appropria tlons. which hav been Inadequate In th past. H says tha trouble has been, not with the Legislature, but with the Board of Control. Legislature Gives Money. When asked today If the Legislature ver refused to grant him any appro- nrlstlon asked. Mr. Clark said: "The Legislature has appropriated for both schools every cent th -state ttoara of Control has ever askd. Four years a so tha Lee-tslature appropriated 125.000 for the building of a boys" dormitory, for which the Board did not ask. l weni directly before the Legislature and madt a reouest for It after in noa.ru nau cut It off of my estimate.

During the following two years I made repairs amounting to WOO. which money waa saved from the table. Th money was actually taken from money appropriated to bur th children' food.

Tha Governor naa snowu his friendship for Murphy too often to permit of the idea that he would In cur the enmity of the Boss by drastic action. Brooklynites, who are never so happy as when they have a grievance, are now camping on the trail of Police Commissioner Cropsey. In the outly ing sections, where the official protec tion is scanty, residents have been driven to the necessity of hiring pri vate watchmen, who look after certain streets and houses for a small sum a week. As these men are often com pelled to make arrests, it has been the custom to make them special police men, which clothes them with author. Ity, but does not cost the city a cent. Of course It Is understood that any man who abuses his powers, promptly loses his shield, and no one objects to that. But Cropsey has taken away the badges of every one of these men, and refuses to tell why he did it. Polios employes of the American District Telegraph and similar cor porations have not been interfered with, which gives rise to the charge that someone is attempting . to compel private citizens to patronise these big companies, or turst in Providence for protection. So the Brooklynites are lit erally up In arm a Argentina's Great. Kxports. Century. Argentina Is the greatest exporter of corn in the world; she sends abroad more chilled and frozen meat than any other country. Only Russia excels her n wheat experts, and only Australia 1 contrlbutea more wool to International trade. The story of her occupations Is told in the fact that nearly $4,600.- 000.000 of working capital Is repre sented In the pastoral and agricultural pursuits and In the allied industries, while less than $100,000,000 Is involved In manufactures, and this Includes elec tric light and power planta used In the larger cities.

Xavy Department Asked for Ship Which Has Mexican War Kecord. Boat May Be Repaired. WASHINGTON. Feb. 26. Final dispo sition of the famous United States ateamship Portsmouth, a warrior of oth er days, is being considered by the Navy Department. The old wooden sailing vessel Is desired by California as a relic because of her historic Interest to the Pacific Coast In the war with' Mexico. Whether the state will get her de pends on the result of an action Just taken by the Navy Department. A general survey of the Portsmouth has been ordered by Secretary Meyer to determine these three questions: The cost of fitting her for a voyage from New York to California, there to be preserved as a Naval relic; the cost of preparing her for the use of the marine hospital service to replace the James town, and her value, ehould she be of fered for sale. This old warship has a notable rec ord. When hostilities broke out with Mexico the Portsmouth was in Paclllc waters. On July 9, 184S, she hoisted the Stars and Stripes at Terba Buena, now San Francisco, and rendered valuable service along the Western Coast. Later she woe sent to Africa to aid In the suppression of the slave trade. The archives of the Navy Department show that on her African mission, her crew took a pledge against the use ot intexicants in order to safeguard them selves against the ravages of fever pre valent there. The old vessel then be came known as the "temperance ship." In 1856, Just before the outbreak of the war between England and China, the Portsmouth, under command of Com mander Foote, stormed the barrier forts of Canton, China, because the Chinese had fired on an American vessel en gaged in the protection of American property. She also saw service in the Civil War, being with Admiral Farragut at the mouth of the Mississippi. The Portsmouth long has been stamped as unserviceable for war purposes, and since 1895 has been used by the Naval Militia of New Jersey, which has been ordered to deliver her at the New Tork Navy-yard by March 3. She was built at the Portsmouth. N. H-, Navy-yard In 144. Her displacement is 846 tons and she cost $170,586. Clairmont to Have Fair Exhibit. OREGON CITY, Or.. Feb. 26. (Spe cial.)
