A BANK CLOSES.
The Capital Savings Bank
Goes into Liquidation
and Shuts up Shop.
It Does SO Because Under the New
Constitution the Bank Can't
be Made to Pay.
The Bank officers Declare the Bank to be
Solvent and that Every One will
be Paid Dollar for Dollar.

No inconsiderable excitement was occa-
stoned yesterday by the announcement at the
doors of the Capital Savings Bank that it
had ceased to transact business. The matter
became at once the prominent theme of the
street. and while the rumors flew thick and
fast regarding the supposed failure, to the
credit of our citizens be it said, no noticeable
panic resulted, for inquiry soon revealed the
true state of affairs, and this was followed
by determination to wait and see and avoid
fret and worry. 1t was early known that
the bank had not failed in the sense
in which that term is generally understood,
but that it had gone into voluntary liquida-
ton, had received rap from the new Con-
stitution which was premonitory of others
to follow, and which had Impressed the Di-
rectors of that institution with the wisdom
OF being discreet before valorous. A crowd,
not large, but inquisitive, gathered at the
bank and sauntered about on the walks
nearly all day, but showed far less interest in
the event than was to be expected. The
officers of the bank were found to be at the
office, to be communicative and frank, and
very soon what little "scare" had been
manifest vanished and was supplanted by
very quiet expression of disappointment and
chagrin, now and then touched up with a
scintillating oath concerning banks in gen
eral and the Capital Bank in particular.
On Monday the State Bank Commission
ers examined into the affairs of the Capital
Bank and reported to the Attorney-Gen
statement of its assets and liabilities, as
follows:

s0IREE AND BANQUET,
GIVEN BY WEINSToCK & LUBIN, OF THE
MECHANICS STORE
The Employers and Employees of the Estab-
ishment Meet in heir Annual
Social Reunion-A Regal
Entertainment.

The proprietors of this establishment have
given annually the past three years grand
banquet, and made it pleasant and profta-
BILE social reunion between the employers and
employees of the house, but no former enter
tainment has equaled in appointment and
splendor thatgiven by them Thursday evening
at the Golden Eagle Hotel Nothing which
money and effort could supply to make it the
grand event of the season was neglected, and
it proved in every way equal to the intention
of the donors and most magnificent success.
All the parlors and various apartments of the
hotel which could be occupied or used for the
pleasure and comfort of the guests were
placed at their service. The two central par
lors were canvased for the benefit of those
who desired to enjoy the dance, and the pop
ular band OF Church, Jones & Beebe furnished
music for the occasion.
The entertainment commenced with dane
ing at P. NJ, and was kept up until the
banquet hour. The following was the pro-
gramme of dances :: Grand March, QuadIille,
Waltz Polka, Caledonian, Schottische Ma
zourka, Waltz Laneers, Polka Redowa,
Waltz Quadrille. Schottische, Waltz. Among
those who took part in the dancing none did
so with more zest than the proprietors, nor
mingled more freely and heartily with all.
There were III employees of the Mechanics
Store present. besides a large number of
prominent citizens as invited guests. At s
o'clock the company formed in couples and
repaired to the spacious dining hall, which
wassoon seated to its full capacity. The dining
hall was most deliberately decorated under
the skillful direction of George Boyne, decor
ator, and presented most pleasing and ar.
tistic appearance Streamers were extended
from the center chandelier to the corners of
the hall, while the walls were beautifully
decorated with flags, banners, bannerettes,
shields, etc, of our national designs, inter.
spersed with flags of all nations; and at the
head of the hall was monogram of the
initials of the proprietors of the Mechanics
Store, "W. L." inclosed with wreath.
The Appointments of the table were fully
equal to the occasion. The following bill of
fare was most admirably prepared and served:
