A VICTORIOUS RoosTEn.-We have
often read accounts of goat seeing the
reflection of itself in looking glass, and
thinking it an opponent, making charge
on the glass and smashing it into pieces;
to have rooster try the same kind of a
| dodge il something novel. yet such
thing occurred the other day. A child
| in town has miniature bureau. which is
surmounted by small mirror. The
little girl took the bureau out in the
| yard, in which were some chickens. The
little girl finally got tired playing and
fell asleep. and one Of the family going
to the door to call the child, saw q
rooster making furious plunges at its
image in the glass and growing every
little while at its imagined victory. The
bureau WAS removed and the rooster
left to its imagination in regard to con-
quering foe.
STATE BANK.-Ths State Bank closed
Its business affairs in Phoebe on the first
OF August. although it will take about
thirty days to straighten the books. etc.
During the existence of the State Bank
under the charge of J. W. Wright, Man.
ager, it has always had the confidence Of
this community and they have always
given it their hearty support, but
moneyed affairs have been so bad lately
that it was almost impossible to make
expenses 80 it was deemed prudent to
close. Manager Wright, and also Il. M.
Bourne, the Cashier, have the best
wishes OF the community on retiring and
the wish that moneyed affairs here had
prevented such necessity a. the closing
of the doors Of the State Bank of Ne.
