ARKANSAS OIL FIELDS.
United States Geological Surveys Fa-
Vorable Report,

Washington, Jan. 23-The United
States Geological Survey today issued
bulletin giving the following data
concerning the zinc and lead districts
of Northern Arkansas:
During the last summer field
party. consisting Of George | Adams of
the United States Geological Survey:
Professor \. H. Purdue of Arkansas
State University and Mr.. Ernest F.
i'ufchard, was engaged in a study Of
the zinc and lead districts of North
eln Arkansas. The field work con
sisted of an examination of the mines
and prospects and a study of the geo
logical relations and character of the
oar deposits. y report is now in pre-
paratlon which will deal with the
economic development of this field.
Until recently the lack of trans
portation facilities has hindered the
mining operations which have been
attempted from time to time. The
field has produced considerable ore.
but most of the mines, after the
character OF their deposits was ascer-
tanned, have remained idle, awaiting
the time when their product could be
marketed without the necessity of
long wagon haulage
"The building of the St. Louis and
Northern Arkansas railroad to Harri-
son. and its extension last summer to
Euffalo river, has caused number of
operators to resume and others to pro-
ceed with development work. The
Missouri Pacific Railway, which is
being extended from Batesville along
the valley of White river to Buffalo,
and is projected from there by the
way of Yellville northwestward into
Missouri promises to open to market
the principle remaining portion of the
field,
1T may be expected that in the near
future the zinc and lead deposits of
Northern Arkansas, which are un-
doubtedly rich. will receive marked de-
velopment and assume their proper
commercial Importance.

Seeing Without Eyes
From the Philadelphia Record.

From the Philadelphia Record
The most wonderful Of all recent alleged
discoveries is that Of Prof Peter Stems, as
announced by a DIR. Gaze in Paris publ
cation of good repute. This Is nothing less
than the power to see without the use Of
the eyes. Should 1t be established 1t would
give sight to all who are blind as the result
of injury or disease Of the eye. Improbable
as the suggestion Is, 1t Is not to be regarded
as impossible. 1t Is no more difficult to
conceive than Is the penetration of SUBJ
stances regarded as opaque by means Of the
Roentgen ray. We have reached a stage
lowing to the development Of the telephone
principle and the accidental discovery Of the
X-ray) where we must expect discoveries
never dreamed Of by the earlier professors
of physics. 1t Is even conceivable that we
may yet find scientific basis for telepathy
and perhaps knowledge Of the means of
giving to 1t a practical utility. 1t Is q fact
that we do not see with the eye, but with
the BRAIN The eye Ia simply a contriyanoe
by which the Image Of any object Is i'm
pressed on the sensitive surface of the
retina. The impression is conveyed to par
ticular and educated nerve ganglia Of the
brain. 1t Is affirmed by DR.. Gaze that he
has had his eyes effectually blindfolded and
yet has been able to see different objects by
by Prof. Stems. 1t cannot be maintained
that the natural eye and the optic nerve are
the only agencies by which visual impress
sions may be conveyed to the brain. II the
accepted theory of light be true, then In the
case Of the Roentgen ray the light waves
penetrate apparently opaque substances. 1t
Ia not impossible, therefore. that the light
waves should penetrate the skull and con-
vey an image to the centers of vision.

LIFE AT PESHAWUR.
characteristics Of Country About the
Ravines Of the Khyber.

From the London Telegraph
The ravines Of the Khyber itself are at
least az safe as the close alleys Of Pesha-
wur. The spirit and color Of the place be-
long not to India, but to central Asia. It's
bazaars and camel market remind you that
1t Is the point Of departure for Kabul and
Bokhara, as it's history reminds you that
the old winter capital OF the Afghan court
Is still stronghold of fanaticism that has
not ceased to scowl. and still longs to
strike. 1t Is now several years since the
last murder Of a sahab. Upon that occa-
sion the station master a worthy man Of
middle age, walked up and down his own
platform. unaware that a GhaN from the
border was following his shadow and study
ing his back, meditating the exact SPOT to
drive at with a curved knife. At that point
his life was saved by the accident which
exchanged 1t for another. A young British
officer appeared upon the platform, and the
fanatic, at the sight Of a victim more to
his mind, dropped the station master and
killed the subaltern.
One Of the features Of Peshawur is the
tall obeisk amid the shady foliage of the
commissioner of the city. who was struck
down in 1853. The unattended visitor who
has walked about the bazaar will confess,
II he is candid. that 1t always gives him

Of a tour across the most characteristic and
picturesque region In Asia. From the
whitewashed top Of the old Buddhist tower,
called the Cor Khattri you look across q
labyrinth OF timbered facades and khaki
roofs plastered with mud The narrow
streets run between houses built Of small
fiat bricks. filing in a framework Of wood

In squares, and give a certain distant and
dngy touch Of Elizabethan character to the
walls. The windows are closed with slid

open galleries on the roofs. Below the
craftsmen ply their trades and the mer-
chants show their wares. But the chief at

the traffic In Its streets. Long strings Of
camels and mules pass through the bazaars
when the caravans come In from the Khy-
