NEW YORK, July 21.—In some ways Earl Musselman is worse off, now that he can see, than he was when he was blind. The Allentown.

Yesterday he was in New York for | the first time since he has grown ac- customed to seeing. He has lost the ways of the blind and #till has not yet gained the confi- dence of vision. ‘When he adventured forth into New York as & blind youth, he came alone. | This time his uncle, D. W.

Ever| since then some one has had to go with me and lead me when I go out | into the streets.” Fearing it would be years before he gained full confidence in his new power, Musselman was worried about an oc- cupation. James H. O'Donnell, a show- man and brother-in-law of Con Col- leano, famous tight rope walker, who i had been brought up in Allentown, came to_the rescue.
