An Honorable Man.

4 case has recently occurred in
Maine which stands out in marked
contrast with the eases of default
ing and enlbezZlement among bank
officers which have been SO common
of late years We regret its sad and
fatal termination, but the maine OF
the faithful officer deserves tn be re-
corded and remembered with honor.
j. w. Barron was treasurer of the
savings bank at Dexter, Maine, a
town some thirty miles northwest Of
Bangor. As he did not return home
Friday evening. the 22ud ult., search
was made, and he WIS finally found
III the vault, handcuiied, gagged and
senseless from wounds in the head,
which caused his death the next
morning. He had evidently been
murdered 10y burglars whom he
thwarted by refusing to open the
safe, and who got some 81 ,20J loose
money for their deadly work, and
escaped, leaving no trace behind.
From the condition III which he was
fround. it is evident that he had u
violent struggle with the burglars
and was overpowered. Since the
occurrence policy of insurance ON
his life tor 5000 was found ia the
sale. together with Il letter stating
that, If any errors should be found
in the accounts of the bank after his
death. that sum, or so much of it as
might be needtul, should be used in
making good the deficiency. He was
unwilling to have his memory tar
nished BY any aceusation, however
trivial or ill-founded, after he had
closed the ACCOMPLISHMENT of his
dealing on earth.--N. Z. Observer.

denees. 1t is estimated that one
thousand people are made homeless.

lures. The loss estimated at $780,, :
600; insurance, $4,000. Although
the greater part of the business por-
ton of the town is destroyed, COM
paratively few hotels We've burned.
Only one first class hotel, the Hot
Springs House. was lost. and two
or three smaller ones. There is still
plenty of hotel accommodation for
