Elks Return.

The delegation OF Elks which left this
city Monday morning for Telluride to
take part in the institution OF lodge OF
the order at Telluride, returned this at
ternoon on the narrow gauge, or at least
good part OF them did.
1t was a pretty tired crowd which
alighted from the narrow gauge train.
Their silk hats did not look 80 glossy as
when they started and most OF them
looked as il they had worked very hard
in endeavoring to show the people Of
Telluride what an Elk really was.
The members OF the delegation speak
in the highest terms OF the royal manner
in which they were entertained. Money
was no figure at all. Everybody was
given free rein to do AS they pleased and
the keys Of the city hao been used to
open the door and then thrown in a

WHEEL THIEVES.
Over Twenty-Five Wheels Stolen
in Six Months by an Organ
lied Gang.

Either an organized band OF wheel
thieves exists in this city and county or
some one is operating from the outside.
In the past six months there have been
at least twenty FIVE wheels stolen in this
city and none OF them have been recov
cred. Efforts have been made by indi-
viduals to recover their wheels through
systematic search, but they have been
unsuccessful
Isolated az we are from any large city
it ought to be an easy matter for our
officers, who are never overburdened
with work, to rup down these bicycle
thieves. 1t is very exasperating thing
to place your wheel some place while
you enter a store or some other place in
the evening, and coming out few min
utes later find that your wheel has sud
denly disappeared and that no trace of it
can be found.
The wheels are usually, in fact are all
numbered. and it Is hard to cut out the
numbers on the wheels. 1t will disf1g-
ure the wheels il it is done and it is
readily recognizable. Some very good
wheels have been stolen lately and no
one knows whore to look for them. In
other cities it has been found after a
raid has been made that there are organ
ized gangs who pass these stolen wheels
forward to Fences where they are re-
painted and sold. Few OF the wheels
that are stolen are ever recovered by the
| owners.
II the officers OF the city want to do
something beside looking wise, let them
organize a good hunt after the individu-
als who are playing their thievery in
this city. Here is a prolific source for
detective acumen and it should be ex-
plored by the local officers.

days paper with reference to the inn
portance to the people of every section
of the State making immediate efforts
to secure free rural delivery in every

therefore $4,000. Here he expects to re-
side some day, and it is on the farm,
at length, that he will reap the rich
literary reward of years of observation,

To Exterminate Anarchists,

yet seen on the subject of protection to

of the News and Observer for the 18th

be surprised at this, from our most pop
ular editor?

of anarchists in the United States. 1t is
this:
Let law be passed by Congress and
by each State Legislature, declaring
every anarchist an outlaw; each body, of
course, executing the law in its own
Jurisdiction. Of course, proof OF anar-
chistic opinions would precede the decla-
ration of outlawry

Kittrell, N. c., Sept. 12.-It is rumored
that large sum of gold has recently been
found in Granville county not very far
from this place. Emmett Woodlief is
given as the name of the finder, and the
Charlotte Smith farm as the place. 1t
is said to be in half eagles and to amount
to $50, 900, less $3.50. The find was made
under an old stump in the woods. The
tin vessel in which the gold had been
buried, had crumbled to dust. The story
is given for what it is worth, though the
rumor is persistent one. 1t is generally

Not because it loves Con- ger over we'll or desires to see him honored, but because it doesn't wish him to return to China as United States minister. nor to tell him that he cannot h other words, for purely selfish reasons the administration wishes Mir Conger nominated for gov ernor for Iowa. He displeased the ad- ministration several times during the negotiations in Pekin, and he has dis pleased it again by his published in teryiews since he reached the United States, but his standing with the pow erful missionary element in this coun- try is such that the administration is afraid to kick him out of the diplo- matic service.

 The question of location being de- cided upon, where oil is to be found with reas enable certainty, then comes the matter of operation, which here is most difficult one. The bane of southern California, the question of water, has first to be contended with. Sometimes by drilling but a short distance water is encountered; but this is an exception, and more often water has to be hauled in tank wagons a great distance-som times 50 miles over the desert trails through the broiling sands, and as hign as $500 month has been paid for sufficient water for running the machinery and drilling purposes on a single well.

CARE OF THE EYES.

On the treatment of the eyes, as on most topics, doctors often disagree. An oculist said yesterday to a patient: Wear these glasses when reading for about a month, but no longer. If you find your eyes still troubling you, come back to me, but the chances are that they will be all right. People often in- jure their eyes by wearing spectacles long after they have performed their task. In such cases as yours, the only difficulty is slight straining of the muscles by over work and a rest such as is afforded by the glasses, for a month generally, is sufficient to restore them to their normal condition.
 People who have no defect of vision seem to think that they never can have and give their eyes all kinds of abuse. When reading, sewing or doing any, thing that requires continuous use of the eyes, one should close them at i1- teryals, for a moment or two, then look off at a distance. This rests the mus cles.
 'sThe work or book should be held no nearer than Is necessary for clear Vi sion. and one should never attempt to read or work by twilight or dim light of any kind.
 ssThe common practice of reading in cars is responsible for many visual troubles. as there Is constant strain on the directing muscles. The same Is true of reading when lying down. It IS q mistake also to read when sleepy, as the muscles of accommodation and convergence are relaxed and the effort to work causes congestion of the blood vessels of the eyeball.
 .aThe cheap editions of popular books are extremely hurtful to the sight, as rule. One should not read type too small to be seen readily at eighteen inches distance"
 It is said that blue eyes are structu- rally the weakest and brown the strongest and the students of lunacy state that in insane asylums there are more black and brown eyes than any other colorS.
 Mental and temperamental traits al- so are said to be indicated by certain Characteristics of the eyes. Clear blue color accompanies a cheerful disposi- tion, and blue gray denotes a. good deal of self-control while green-gray eyes generally are indictive of a nasty tenn per. Small eyes are thought to be sig nifcant of cunning and deceit, and large eyes to indicate frankness and honesty. Large eyes that open widely signify a tendency to rashness, but when the upper lid covers half or more, of the pupil, cool deliberation may be expected.
 Eyes too close together are likely to mean deceit and poor Judgment. The proper distance between them is the length of one, eye. When the white of the eve shows beneath the pupil. nobility of character may be assumed, and a tendency to insanity is probable when the whole of the iris is visible.- New York Tribune.
