But he little dreamed of the wealth that was underneath the earth and' the millions of dollars that yet be taken from it. Nobody pretends' to think that the field is going to riv- ! al the great coal areas of the North ! and Middle West, but there is enough coal there to supply a railroad or two and there is an advantage of $3.50 j in freight rates that will make pos-1 sible a reasonable profit to the opera tors. Neither of the companies is asking 1 for anything more than to be let* alone. They have no stock selling | scheme, and from the wav the field i is being developed, it is unlikely that any such eventuality will come out of the field. They have discovered no oil wells, although they occasionally strike an oil-bearing shale. They have gone at it on a business-like scale. Whether the old iron mines will ever be re-opened and car wheels and rifles be manufactured there again, whether te river will ever be cleared of its fish traps and made LSVigaole by the Governor 1 ambitious scheme, or whether the gold of the Uwarrie will ever aagin tempt the fortune hun ter, Deep River has its mines, and just the going down in one of them pro vides the layman with about as keen a thrill as he need want. -THOUGHT THEY WERE BLIND— How a Pittsboro Joker Played It on Two Farmers. By Rambler. “They” tell a good one on our friends, Willie Ward and Dock Gun ter. “They” do say that Willie and Dock came over to Pittsboro a few nights ago on a visit to a friend who had kindly invited them. And “they” do say that the friend had gathered into the fold a quart of mountain dew, not Hickory Mountain. Now everybody that knows Mr. Ward and Mr. Gunter know T that they are almost total abstainers from the ardent, but not to disappoint the friend they did partake of a drink or two and probably several more. Now this friend of the two is quite a joker. For some time the three sat and talked farming, because the two visitors are first class farmers, and they talked city talk, because the hostess is a city man. When things began to get mellow the joker excused himself, leaving Willie and Dock to talk politics. JLu a few minutes after mine host had gone out the electric lights gradually became dim. Then they went out en tirely, leaving the two men in the dark. “What’s the matter with my eyes,” asked Mr. Ward, “I can’t see a wink.” “Something's got wrong with mine,” said Mr. Gunter. “Wonder if that is wood alcohol we are drinking,” asked Mr. Ward. “I ’spect it is,” replied Mr. Gunter. “Where is John gone?” asked Mr. Ward. “He’d better send for the doc tor. I am blind as a bat.” “So am I,” replied Mr. Gunter. Just them the joker came in and the two stricken qjid blind men began to moan their fate to him. The thoughts of being blind the balance of their life almost paralyzed them. “Get a doctor quick, John,” said Mr. Ward. “Yes, get him as quick as you can,” replied Mr. Gunter. John went out and in a few min utes Dr. Chapin came rushing in. The house was all dark, but he could hear moans and groans of Mr. Ward and Mr. Gunter. “Oh, Lord,” cried Mr. Ward and Mr. Gunter together, “save my eye-sight and we’ll never drink another drop.” Just then the lights were turned on. There stood Dr. Chapin, his mouth full of handkerchief and John near the door with a grin on his face that would have thrown the Pittsboro fast express from the track if it had hit it, and there stood Mr. Ward and Mr. Gunter in another nart of the room, wondering what had hit ’em.
