SPECTACLES
SWINDLER WORKS
In COUNTRY

An old swindle Of glib statesmen
persuading the residents Of the rural
county that they need spectacles.
and then charging persons for whom
the eyeglasses are prescribed exor-
bitant prices for them, is again being
worked.
In the past few days a stranger
representing himself as an expert oc-
uiist. sent by the Government TO in
spect eyes. called upon well known
farmer of Pencader hundred, and af-
ter examining the eyes Of the farm
er's wife, told her that unless she
got a pair OF glasses at once she
would be totally blind in six weeks.
The stranger induced the farmer
to buy the glasses, for which he
charged $3S. The salesman went so
far as to promise the return Of half
the money If the glasses did not prove
satisfactory. There is possibility
that this swindle may be attempted
in Wilmington or in towns as well as
in the rural districts where the
chance of being detected at the game

Illuminating explanation of the much
discussed complaccncy OF President VIII

vas furnished the United Press here to-
day.
The explanation came from an au-
lhority that could not be questioned.
Il is simply that for several weeks past
Hucrta has been so conviviaI on num-
Der OF occasions that Washington with
daily reports ON hand as to Hucrta's
condition has simply matched up the
Hucrts statements with tho Huerta con-
ditions and let it 90 at that.
Detailed reports Of Huertas personal
habits have been furnished Washington
through John Lind and Nelson
O'Shaughnessy. Charge d'Affaircs at Mex
ico City, their reports being based in
part on the minute observation OF
American military attaches with Huer-
ta's army. and later on the report OF
secret agents.
I'm pursuance OF the fixed policy OF
the American government OF keeping
the situation clear aud avoiding every
possible chance OF clashes, John Lind To-
dav advised Prof Tosser. the Harvard
archaeologist against proceeding e
Mexico City with his wife and advised
that he drop his research work in Mex
leo for the present.
