For some time a young man named
Frank Wade has been one Of the night
attendants at Elitch's restaurant. Wade
was a rather intelligent fellow but seemed,
in the language of the day, to be a little
off his base at times. Recently he be-
came infatuated with an invention, an
electric light Illuminated sign which
would make his fortune. A few days ago
he was discharged, but when night came
he returned to the restaurant, hung his
coat on a hook, donned a white apron,
and announced that he would run that
restaurant in the future He was thrown
out. Subsequently he borrowed $50 of
one of the patrons of the place and dis
appeared toward the spot where the
western sky touches the mountains. The
lender Of the $50 is sadder and wiser
than he WIS.

The Democratic Primaries to be

So-called Republican primaries were
held in the several wards last evening. but
for some reason the members of the a. O.

mary proceedings.
The meeting in the third ward was held
in the city hall. BY s O'Clock about a
dozen men were present. Of which number
about six were qualified voters. Consid-

TWO B~URGLARIES.
An Adventure at the Residence of
J. F. Jenkins.
The Home Of E. A. Matthews Raided
in Daylight.
Probable Capture of the Robbers
at Carr Station.

About IL o'clock Monday night the
residence of J. F. jenkins, No. s94. Hill
street, was burglarized. Mr.. and Mrs.
jenkins went to Fort Collins Monday
morning, but Mr.. Gus. jenkins, brother
of. f. jenkins, sleeps at the house.
Monday evening he attended the skating
rink and shortly before IL O'Clock went to
the house. When he entered he had but
n single match in his pocket This he lit
and by its uncertain light he noticed that
a lamp had been moved from where he
left it earlier in the evening. just as the
match went u he heard footsteps in an
adjoining room, and a later a
man called to him to drop He was
unarmed, the room was shrouded in the
deepest darkness. and so he wisely re-
treated. Passing out the front door he
hastened to the adjoining house, occupied
by Mr.. John Shingle. As he was knock
ing on the door two men came ont of the
back door at Mr.. jenkins, sealed a rear
fence and disappeared.
Subsequently Officers Sullivan and
VIM were notified of the burglary and an
investigation was. made. The burglars
had cut holes through the panes Of several
windows before they found a window
where the catch could be operated from
without. Entering through the window
they lighted lamps and searched the
house thoroughly. In the absence of
Mr.. and Mrs. jenkins there is also an
entire absence of any positive knowledge
as to what plumber was secured. Mr..
jenkins was the custodian of the ON
munion service of the First Presbyterian
church. This consists of silver plates,
goblets, ~deeanters, a baptismal bowl, and
other pieces. The service is not in the
house, can not be found elsewhere, and it
is therefore feared the burglars carried it
away. There is neither s~ilverware nor
jewelry in the house, and unless Mr.. and
Mrs. jenkins removed these from the
premises the robbers made quite a haul.
In the profundity of an inscrutable
wisdom the police preserved a profound
silence about the robbery-and then went
to bed; a method Of procedure that could
hardly fail to result in the capture Of the
burglars at some future time and to cause
the reporters to look upon the officers as
benefactors. "Of course a thief doesn't
know he has committed a crime, nor does
he know that the victim of the crime
knows he has been robbed, unless the
matter is reported in the daily papers.
Extract from modern police reasoning.
Take it, you're welcome, no extra charge.
1t is hardly necessary to add hat there
is no clue to the robbers. The burglary
was a bold one. The robbers made so
much noise in the house that they at
tracted the attention Of neighbors, and
when MIR. jenkins appeared on the scene
they had begun a careful packing of all of
the portable articles of value. There is
some little hope of their capture.

What they do In New Orleans Now

What they do I'm New Orleans Now
a-days.
The great crowds in New Orleans, at
the exposition, literally contributed to
the audience present at the Nth grand
monthly drawing of the Louisiana state
lottery, on Tuesday, Feb. 10. The sum
of s265, 500 was fairly placed by the hand
of fortune where it probably will do the
most good. AS sample bricks, how the
goddess treats her votaries, we note that
ticket No. %, 600 drew the first capital
prize Of $4,000, and was sold as a whole
TO a resident of San Francisco. Cal, and
collected through the Nevada bank Of
that city. Ticket No. SS,414 drew the
second capital prize Of $25 200, and was
sold to a party in New Orleans, La, visit
ing the exposition probably. Ticket No.
1,730 drew the third capital prize of
$4,000, and was sold in fifths, one to
Reuben Joel, 60 Monroe st. Lynn. Mass.
another collected through First National
Bank of Birmingham, Pittsburg, Pa.
Nos. 70,9 2 and IS, 476, drew each $1,000
and were held in New Orleans and Gin

Indian Rumors.

From the Buffalo Echo.
Rumors are rife in this vicinity that the
Grow and other Indians are getting ex-
tremely restless, arising, we believe from
the proposed lease of their lands. 1t is re-
ported they have made all sorts of threats
about clearing out the whites, at some
point. we do not know where In proof of
this it is said Of late they have been buying
up a good deal Of ammunition. As the
savage breast ceases to reason when once
infamed with a sense of injustice done
them, it would be well for the authorities
to look after the foundations, if there are
any, of these rumors.

Sir Arthur Sullivan does most of his

A committee of the monument fund of
the John +. Reynolds postof the Grand
Army was engaged yesterday in obtaining
contributions to the fund. The recent
ball, given by the post, netted $75 toward
the erection Of the monument. and it is
now desired to increase this fund 50 that
the monument may be erected this spring.
The committee met with complimentary
success yesterday, liberal and freely offered
donations being obtained. The monu-
ment is now assured and will probably be
finished before Decoration Day. It will
be built Of Wyoming granite and will be
worthy of the city and the Grand Army.

A number of ladies have called at the
office of The LEADER and complained that
a young vagabond is frightening women
who may be at home and alone when he
calls. The fellow appears to be about Is
years old and is very insulting. He goes
from house to house with boxes Of stove
backing and some sort Of cough medicine.
He tries to sell his wares for twenty-five
cents per box, but failing to make a sale
at that price reduces his demands to TWEEN
ty cents, then to fifteen, and then to ten
cents. Finally he relates a sorrowful
story in a rough way, and demands FIVE
cents as a donation. He will not leave
until he gets the five cents, and by his
insulting and threatening name has
frightened many ladies. 1t is suggested
that a douse of hot water would give him
a needed hint.

behalf of the appointment Of Mr.. o. p.
Goodwin as Indian agent at Pine Ridge,

West, his service as a scout and guide
when this region was a terra hioognito,
his knowledge of the Indian languages
and habits Of the tribes,an his fitness for
the position Of Indian agent. There is
little doubt that he will secure the ap-
pointment.

A DAYLIGHT Robbery.

About fifteen minutes after IL O'Clock
yesterday morning persons in the vicinity
Of east Sixteenth street noticed a man sit
ting on the walk in front of the house of
Mr.. Ed. A. Matthews. A few moments
later a man crawled out of one of the
windows and thereupOn both men ran
away. Mrs. Matthews was not at home
at the time, and no one was in the house
when the burglars gave the premises their
distinguished consideration, but she re-
turned home before the men were fairly
out of sight and at once discovered the
robbery.
The men had worked a rather neat
scheme. One of them remained in front
of the house, measured the door with 4
line, and acted as though he belonged on
the premises. While several children
were observing him, his partner
went to the rear oil the house,
broke the glass of a pantry window.

ARTIFICIAL EYES.
Glass Optics that Closely Rival the Ap
of the Real.

pedTaItce Oh me fPaf,
An eye once lost to its sense Of sight can
never be replaced by any thing that will
restore that sense. Artificial eyes have ex-
listed as long as there has been any demand
for them. ''Step this way, saidt the spec
ialist. 'and I will show you a large assert
ment of them" The doctor reached up to
a shelf in his cabinet and took down two
small fiat boxes. One of them was labelled,
left eyes, assorted, = and the other, fright
eyes, assorted.
The doctor opened the boxes, and there,
resting on soft beds of tissue paper, were
hundreds of left and right eyes. They
were of every shape, size and color imag-
Unable, and looked perfectly natural in
their upward gaze.
The eye was simply a coneo-conyex shell,
and the doctor explained that the natural
working and turning of the artificial eye
was not due to any improved mechanism.
but simply to the modern method of ope-
rating on the genuine eye. Instead of re-
moving the injured eye entirely as formerly.
only a part was removed, and the artificial
organ was fitting on the stump, which
would continue to move with the muscles.
do they ever wear out ?"
ooh yes, that's the beauty of them. The
acidity of the tear of the human eye will
eat up glass, and it makes them rough and
honey-combed like sandstone. They u.s.
ually last a year and cost $40 apiece.
Many wearers buy two or three at a time
to have them ON hand in case of an acct
dent"
Can a person cry just as well with the
artificial eye?.
Yes. The trouble is they usually cry a
great deal more from the unnatural irrita-
ton. The artificial eye is made from a
bulb of glass having a slight ovality blown.
on the end of a rod of glass about the size
of a pencil. From the sphere thus blown
a segment is flattened out for the iris and
pupil. \ circular patch of black pigment
in the centre forms the pupil. The paint
ing of the iris is done with delicate enamel
colors. and then a bulb of clear crystal
glass is placed over it. The red veins are
traced with fine films of red glass laid on
and fused. Probably over 10, 900 people
in the United States wear artificial eyes.
DR.. William Siemens devised an artificial
eye which is sensitive to light and to differ
ences in color, gives signs of fatigue when
subjected to prolonged action of light, and
regains its strength after resting with
closed lid; and, by an electromagnetic at
tachment, may be made to close itself in
voluntarily at a vivid flash. Such an eye
would be worth having. 1t is well known,
too, that the vibrations of musical tones
may by ordinary conducting wires be
transmitted and delivered 10 the ear. and
it remains to be seen, says DIR. Siemens.
whether light vibrations may not be trans
mitted to the brain in the absence Of The
natural eve.

old to one who has been there with her.
Years may come and go, but the music Of
the low voice at the front gate viii not be
stilled, and the memory of the cherry lips
we kissed at the front gate will hold out
faithful to the end. What il the old gate
does sag and its hinges rattle and its latch
refuse to hold shut? What if it's posts are
shaky and some of its piekets gone? We
love the dear old relic still. We love it
for the sake of the dear girl who used TO
stand out there by it with roses on her
checks and nectar on her lips. We held
the old gate MP and counted the stars
again. How many times did lips meet
DER the dear old gate? The old gate
knows. but it will never tell. The old
front gate may have counted the kisses.
with the p~each-bloom checks never did.
And what of the girl with the peach
bloom cheeks !? All, me She married
another. She forgot her VOWS at the old
front gate, as some girls will, and married
a richer aud handsomer man. And L?
Well. | went off to another front gate
where there were other peach-bloom
checks and other lips as sweet and just as
many stars to count. Aud now ! have a
front gate Of my own with peaeh-bloem

they stand tonight at the old front gate.
