ROBBERY AT
MAXWELL
POstOffiCe and Store Brok-
en- Open--Stamps, Money
and Goods Taken g

The store and post office at Maxwell,
owned and kept by Mr.. q. Nj. Graybeal,
robbed on last Monday night about IL
o'clock. of about 800 in goods and
money. About S25 was In small coin,
chiefly dimes, nickles and pennies, and
about S155 in stamps, and the rest In
goods. Among the stolen goods
taken was 35 pair Of shoes, clothing,
pocket knives, etc. There was about
$75 in cash in the safe in the building
The safe was not troubled.
The quantity OF goods taken and the
manner Of the robbery lends color to
the theory that the thieves had some
conveyance with them, and were well
acquainted with the premises and sur
roundings. They entered by the front
door, evidently with key, as nothing
was forced or broken.
Postmaster Graybeal notified the
postal authorities promptly, OF the rob-
berry, and detective has been on the
ground. Up to this morning no clue
has been found.

TO MEN WHO
CAN SEE

q. w. HURT.

People Of TaZcwell County:
Gentlemen 49, You were reminded
last week TINT you had seen Bluefield
grow from nothing 20 $4,000 In but a
few years" A 80 foot frontage now
exceeds the value OF 80 acres ten years
ago.
Men with whom you could have
matched dollars for every penny they
had then, today exceed you in wealth.
What made this difference? People.
that's all. They simply bought "where
people had to go, and got there first"
1 meet men every day who say "I can't
see what's going to make Bluefield
grow any larger" Ofcourse they can't;
they didn't see ten, five, nor two years
ago. They never will.
On the other hand, those who can
''see," and many such are In TazewelI
reports to the contrary, notwithstand-
ing), see two things as clear as sun
light: lst. That BluefieId and Graham
growing gradually into compact
whole, and Ind, that Midway lots are
at the point whereon the pressure of
both towns must sxpend it's full force.
Understand, please, that / say this to
men who can "see": 1 do not pay
space rates to teach those who cannot.
There are enough far-slghted men, who
once / secure their attention-will
quickly take all the lots unsold at
Midway, and / am content that the
"unseeing" be taught their values by
imperative necessity as eyer they
must be the necessity of finding
homes for themselves.
Yours truly,
W. D. ROBERTS,
Agent.

HARRY--PECK.
A Quiet But Pretty Marriage.

Mr.. J. A. L. Harry, connected with
the News office, and Miss Annie Bell
Peck were married on Wednesday
evening at $50 O'Clock, at the residence
OF Mr.. and Mrs. J. A. Leslie, by Rev.
/ Mr.. Fugate, pastor of the Baptist
church.
The ceremony took place In the
presence OF quite large number of
personal friends OF the bride and
groom, who just dropped in, as there
were no invitations. The affair had
been kept entirely secret, insomuch
that but only few OF the relatives
knew Of 1t. After the ceremony light
refreshments were served.
Mr.. Harry has been a faithful and
efficient employe Of the News ONCE
for seven years. He is the second son
OF DR.. and Mrs. w. A. b. Harry. Of
Clear Fork, and d young man of In
dustrious habits and good moral
character.
The bride is a daughter Of Mr.. A. M.
Peck, and came to Tazewell with her
fathers family several years ago. She
has held, and still retains, the respon-
sible position Of stenographer to Mr..
s. ID. May, one of Tazewell's leading
attorneys, and is young lady OF fine
character, and stands high In the
estimation OF those who know her best.
The young people took a plain.
sensible view Of their marriage. Each
OF them left their places of business
about the usual time Wednesday after
noon, and were at work at the same
places on time Thursday morning. We
predict for them in the battle of life
that success and happiness which they
deserve.

TO AVOID TROUBLE OVER FLAG
Plan to Keep consuls from Offending
Foreign Nations.

Washington.-The fact that the
celebration of the Fourth of July and
other patriotic holidays frequently
involves American consular officers
abroad in friction with the local Off
cials and even results in mob vio
lence, has inclined some of the Off
cials at the State Department to ths
conclusion that It would .e well ia
include in the consular regulations
an expressed instruction to the con.
sular officers as TO the conditions un.
der which the American flag is to be
displayed at the consulates.
Trouble has arisen in a number OF
cases through the action OF consuls
flying the American flag above the
ensign of the country to which they
are accredited. Especially in Canada
has there been friction, and on more
than one occasion indignant Cana,
dians in an outburst of patriotic re
sentiment have torn down the offend
ing American flag, leading to diplo
matte protests.
II has been found that many coun
tries have provided in terms for the
regulation of the display OF their
flags, and it is probable that a study
of the practice of these countries will
lead to the formulation OF some rule
for the government of our own con
sular officers.

CIRCUS Is STRICTLY
AMERICAN In SPIRIT
Has Not Lost Any of Its
Popularity.
John Robinson's Big Show, to be
Here August I6, is One Of
the Biggest.

The circus has not lost any OF its
popularity and it probably never
will. The circus is distinctively
American amusement enterprise. 1t
has long had great hold on the
affections Of the people. Circus day
is always great day for the child
ren, and il is a great day for a
multitude of older people, who, of
course, must accompany the child
rem for the purpose of seeing that
the little folks are properly guard
ed and given the opportunity of
witnessing all that is to be wit
messed. The man or woman who has
never been to a circus-to see the
animals--is the exception and not
the rule. The boy who has not seen
circus, even if he had to carry
several dozen pals of water a
block or two in order to earn the
price of admission there are
not many such boys. There are
not many people nowadays who in
weigh, publicly, at least, against at
tending circus. And it would
probably do no good if they did
make, such protests. The circus is a
legitimate. amusement enterprise,
and those who pa&ronize it have no
apology to offer for their attend
ance.
The John Robinson's Big Circus,
Menagerie and Wild West, the old
est, largest and richest show in the
world, will be here on August 16.
This shcw is not in the circus trust
and will give one of the finest pa
rades ever in the city.
