Raleigh. N. C. February to?The
Senate bill creating Hoko county out :
of portions of Cumberland and Robe
son passed final reading In tho House i
to-night, by a vote of seventy-throe to
tilne. An amendment changing tue
boundary, and lessening the territory
of tho now county, was hilled by a
decisive majority.
A bill which has born pending for j
rome t?mc to make the purchase of
voteu and similar offenses against the j
purity of elections In this State felo?
nies instead of misdemeanors Is to
have a favorable report. Rather, a
substitute bill to this effect Is to be
reported by .Judiciary Committee No 1
for the 13wart bill. Other sections er
the Kwart bill, Including payment oi
poll taxes and granting immunity to
witnesses for prosecution, arc stricken
out, ami tho substitute is made to
simply amend Revisai of 1905, section
On Friday nlrjht of this week there
Is to be a caucus of the Democratic
members of the Legislature to deter?
mine, upon what this Assembly shall
do with reference tu i ..-districting tho
State In tj.e matter of congressional
districts. This dc< tclon was reached
to-night In a conference of the joint
Committees on Congressional Districts.
The situation was discussed at great
length to-night, the sentiment of the
committee seeming to be that there
be an entire redtstricting instead of
any minor changes involved In those
bills already introduced. The View
was generally expressed that the
i-Uato can be so districted as to as
pure all ten district's Democratic, and.
if not, thrn certainly it can be so ad
Jutst-d a:; to make nine of them ccr.*

j Alive to ihn need for and the inter

ber of Commerce has arranged for and
has secured the presence of Logan
Waller Rage, United States Director of
Public Roads, to address a meeting of
the members of the chamber, to be:
held next Monday afternoon at. 4:30
' o'clock. ?very person in tho city of
! Richmond interested in good roads is
(nyltcd to attend.
Mr. Page, formerly of Richmond,
who has given a number of years to
tho consideration and study of toad
conditions in various sections of the
j United Stute?, is rrob3l"dy the great
. est living authority on reart Duildiug.
, tie has travel-,i front coast to roa;;t in
prosecuting the campaign for good
! read?. There is not a single section
' of this great country with which he
? is not familiar. He has learned of the.
j great sand w.tstes which lie in the
! Southwestern States, and he has seen
tho clay stretches with which Virginia
abounds
Ituads and Profit?.
I All of this manifold information he
i will tell to tit-: r-ronle who gather at
; the meeting to hear his talk. In ad
. dition to the practical work of road
! building, Mr. Page is qualified to deal
; with the question from an economic
standpoint, He ran tell to the fr?c
: tlon of a penny how much it costs the
' farmor to haul produce over a bad
road, and he can tell also just how
much can be saved, if the road is iih
I proved and marls passable in all kinds
; of weather. He knows what farm land
i is worth lying along bad roadh. and
j he will be able to give information as
j to the probable increase in value
I should the roadway be Improved along
j the lines he will suggest,
i The people of Richmond and of Vir?
ginia have been awakened, or rather
reawakened, within the recent past to
the actual need for read improvement.
Always they have known that there
were many ro?ds in tho State which
were a real disgrace to the neople of
this great Commonwealth. For some
reason or other they have been rather
derelict In improving conditions. At
i least this is-TFfb opinion of come of
the men who have taken time and
trouble to Investigate. With the ac?
tivity of the Richmond Automobile
Association, and the organization of
the Richmond - Gordonsville - Louisa
Highway Association, the citizens of
I Richmond aro now fully alive to the
pressing needs for road irriprovement.
The organization of the Virginia
Tidewater Highway Association ha:;
I also lent impetus to the work. in
fact, only yesterday Frank Darling,
president of tho last named organiza?
tion, and M. C. Armstrong, a member,
were hero to see about raising (4,000,
to bo applied wherever most needed,
toward the construction of the high?
way from Richmond to the coast cities.
Little doubt is entertained that the
money asked for will be speedljy-aub
scribed.
Henrlco has signified its intention of
taking care of all or the road within
the borders of that county. Other
counties are rapidly falling Into line.
Good roads are no longer a hope of the
?future, but a real and positive need of
tho present. These are the thoughts
which the business men of the Stato
of Virginia are instilling, or trying to
instill, into the minds of som? who
have failed to grasp tho situation,
It Is hoped that the meeting next
Monday afternoon will bo largely at?
tended. Ar, stated before, all are in?
vited to attend. The lecture will be
Interesting, and will disclose many im?
portant facts not known by the aver?
age person, who Is willlnft to let well
enough alono and who falls to reilizc
the .necessity for good roads.
Concern Proposes to Save Money
Through Purchase?Look
Into Franchise.
Councilman Seaton, of Clay Ward,
last night carried out his promise to I
give the Committee on Light some in- |
formation regarding lighting tho j
stteets and alleys by gar.
At the last meeting of tho Council
the committee recommended for the ,
second time the award of contract to I
the American Street Lighting Company j
for furnishing ornamental gas burners
and lighting them, the. city to furnish
the lamp posts and i^a:;. and for the ?
second time the Council refused to
sanction tho award, nnd recommitted
the paper. In the debate Mr. Seaton
asked t.'hy tho city did not buy tho j
fixtures arid employ its own lamp light- ?
err. Members of the committee were
vague. Some thought tho ? Boulevard"'
light now rented was patented, and j
'?V ????>} on-rht it cheaper to rent. The
present contract 1? for 1,000 lamps,
....i. y.iij p.*.. 3 a rental of $1.1..".0 per
lump per year, which Includes the pay
of j imp lighters.
Off era to Save Money.
Carrying put his promise, Mr. Seaton ?
appeared before the committee last
night with letters from the Thomas G. i
\V. Minor Cornea:.v. of New York, of- i
fering to sell the city 1,000 .similar j
lamps complete, delivered in Richmond, j
at ?S each, the lamps to burn three
to throe and one-half cubic feet of j
gas, and to furnish sixty-cahdleppwei%;|
the city to purchase the dxtur.es out- 1
riqht. Mr. Seaton figures that on ? two
year contract the city could i>ay for the !
labor, breakage and" repairs, buy 1,000 '
lamps and spend $5,408 lrs^ than by.
renting, and at the end of that time j
own the lamps outright.
Mr. Seaton added that lie had been ]
informed that tho American Street
Lighting Company, which was renting
lamps to Richmond, had sold them to I
other clticc. Mr. Powers, of the com- j
m'.ttee. wanted to reject all proposals I
and C2.H for bids both for rental and ?
purchase Of lamps, hut by the same]

Allorvmiee for Injury.
An allowance of J4tf for sixteen days

Works.
C Ly Engineer Boiling reported that
he was- about to improve Carv Street
from the Boulevard to the city limit:*,
and ni-ked that alt jr^-s connections be
laid to prevent the later tearing tip
of the street. Mr. PC no wie a said it
would require 221 taps at $>; each, or
about .11.300. and opposed doing the
work, as some of the taps would stand
idle for years. Tho matter was finally,
referred to Mr. Knov.les for report.
Messrs. Grimes, Workman and Wilt?

to looj; into the franchise rights and

Twenty,-five years ago was laid the foundation of our establish?
ment, which has become not only the leading and largest Optical
House South, hut one of the foremost in the United States. This
position was not attained by chance, bur. by work, foresight,
efficient and conscient ous service.
Our lens grinding and optical manufacturing plant does not
represent a mere grindstone, but a modern, up-to-date manu?
facturing establishment, equipped with every facility to turn out
the most complicat d optical work. This fact is so generally
recognized by the trade and profession throughout the South that
it is not an unusual occurrence for ns to fill from three hundred to
four hundred prescriptions in a single day. The general public
lias also learned to appreciate these, our unequaled facilities?
combined with skill and experience-?to render the best optical
service obtainable, which accounts for the constant increase of
our extensive loyal patronage.
t We are originators of optical specialties calculated to make
eyeglass wearing a comfort and a benefit. These specialties are
Richmond creations, and the demand for same has extended into
many States of the Union.
In the Kodak Department we are also recognized leaders,
handling only the dependable Eastman goods, with fully equ pped
plant for artistic developing and printing. This department of
our business likewise ranks among the foremost and best in the
country.
In reiterating on this occasion the excellence of our establish?
ment we shall in the future, as in the past, strive to maintain the
conf dence of the public and the thousands of our valued patrons
by correct service and the giving of absolute satisfaction in all
things GOOD FOR THE EVES.

The rase of Moses Davis, alias Moses
Jackson, the negro man held on the
charge of attacking a young white
woman of Chester recently, was begun
yesterday in the Chesterfield county
Circuit Court and continued until to?
day, a verdict will probably be
;?? ????he.; by the jury before night.
Commonwealth's Attorney Gregory
is preising the cqse. There is some
talk of stnding tho ntm? to in asylum
instead of tho penitentiary, as he is
considered to bo of doubtful sanity.
This move will be fought by the Com?
monweal! h. *
The man fled the scene of the alleged
ciime. and was caught by Ollicor
Watts, of Chesterfield county, after
seycral days A preliminary hearing
was given the negro before 'Squiro
Robinson in Chester, by whom he was
fieiit uii to the grand jury.
Iliac in Ueoltj Value*.
Real estate men and other* inter?
ested in land on the south side of the
river report a decided rise in property
values over here since the annexation.
Some of the figures given yesterd' by
??. prOtnlheut real estate operator are
remarkable, and there seems to he a
corresponding activity in the market.
.v marked feature of this increase in
real estate values in the Southshle. is
that it is not confined to any particu?
lar portion of the ward, but is seen in
all sections.
?me instance quoted of a lot hought
few years ago for 5180 and sold re?
cently for $1,100? is hardly a fair illus?
tration, but glv*s some idea of the
immense jump laken by land -? thisi
side. Another lot on upper Hull Street,
recently purchased for $2,S00 brought,
a. bid of $6,000 a few weeks ago. Other
instances could be cited, but all not so
remarkable as these two!
Nearly every one before annexation
conceded that real estate values .would
be raised by this move, but few were
as optimistic a'; the actual results have
shown.
"Want Belter Bridge Light*.
The Councilmon from Washington
Ward are. the recipients of many com?
plaints from their constituents in re?
gard to the ine-tflcient lighting on the
Free Bridge. The matter has been re?
cently brought to the attention of the.
Council, and it was explained by the
city engineers that the constant jar- '
ring of the structure madi good gas |
lighting Impossible.
The Southjude. people and the Conn- 1
ell representatives are clamoring for
electric lights on this thoroughfare, !
since it has been said that nothing can
keep the gas lights on the bridgs? In
working order. Some move will short?
ly be made to bring the matter up in
the Council, in order that better pro- '
tection will be furnished to the pedes?
trians who are forced to use this ,
means of passage nightly.
A Councilman recently pointed out;
that the need for better lighting would !
be increased when Mayo's Bridge Is i
closed and the -tire traffic to and fro:
thrown on this bridge.
Some protection from possible foot?
pads ?dtould be fiivrlehecl. it la ar
vtted, by the city to the working
who live on tho suiui, . . of the river
and are forced to walk over this struc?
ture In almost total darkness. The
present lights are few and far enough
between, but not more than half of
them can be kept burning.

Put Buck mi Fountain.
The. bronze figure which hns graced
tho top of the marble fountain at the
Juncture of ice Petersburg Turnpike
and iiuil Street has at last been ele?

neighboring lot and has been set back
on its pedestal, after three months' ex?
posure to the <ohl.
Tho construction of the fountain is
such that to get to tho pipes tho upper
part of the fountain, including tho
bronze woman, must be removed. In
ord?-r to repair a stoppage, in the pipes
some- three months ago, she was lifted
down and was ullowed to rest in the
lot, a target for the stones ami mud of
every small boy who passed the curner.
The fountain Itself was built by sub

Halse Money for Bond.
Advance toward the raisin;; of the.
necessary $3,000 for the building of the
new highway leading to Campbell's
Bridge, through Ettrick. ten miles out
in Cnesteriield, was made Monday night
at a meeting of the citizens of tho
county in Woods Church, when $1,300
of tho amount was subscribed.
Of tho $13,??? needed, $10,000 will b*
spent by the county, on condition that
the citizens raise $3,000. In view of
the amount raised at the meeting Mon?

pleting the necessary sum. These, com?
mittees will set to work immediately,
so that the work may bo begun as soon
as possible.
