PrrTsBuRG, May 2G,-The Pennsylva-
mia bank closed its doors again at IL
o'clock to-day and posted the following
notice on its door: Mr.. Redley, the Pres
ident and chief executive officer of the
bank, having become suddenly and seri-
ously i'll and unable to communicate
with the board of directors, it Is deemed
proper to close the bank under existing
circumstances until he sufficiently re-
covers to be present at an adjustment of
affairs. By order of the board. The
officers placed in charge refused to per-
nit an audience with any of the board.
There Is great excitement. The news
of the second assignment spread rapidly
and created intense excitement and sur
prise, owing to the fact that everybody
had faith In the banks ability to pay the
claims against it. The immediate cause
is at present unknown, and nothing
definite can be learned, as the directors
positively refuse to be interviewed.
Large crowds have been flocking to the
bank, and the pavement in front is filled
with anxious depositors and persons at
tracted. through curiosity. President
Riddle appeared in his usual health this
morning, but half hour later was pros
trated by hemorrhage of the lungs, and
since taken has had three repetitions
thereof. lie is lying at the Duquesne
club rooms unconscious, with only slight
hopes of recovery. Close friends OF Mr..
Riddle are unable to give any explana-
tion of the sudden turn of affairs. 1t Is
said, however, that there has been n
heavy run on the bank this morning,
principally by checks, and that S2G0,0OO
have been drawn out this way. The
crash was brought about by the clearing
house throwing out checks amounting
to $265,000. According to statement the
directors of the bank had raised S93l 900
to pay liabilities Of S9lS,000. but 1t is
said there were 100000 certified checks,
which were not included in this, and
which had to be paid, which left the
suspended Institution no funds to tide
them over.

LoNnoS, May 2G,-'rhe Pail Mall Ga
zette says France has asked that before
the meeting of the proposed conference
England should consent to place Egypt
under international control. Granville
objected, while the British military oc-
oupatlon of Egypt should continue.
Then France asked that the duration of
the English occupation should be linz
tied and renewed her demand for imme-
diate international control. Granville
named five wears as the minimum time
for English occupation and insisted on n
postponement OF the proposed control
until England could withdraw her
troops, but France adhered to her pre-
yious demand until at last Lord Granville
offered to consent to the principles of
multiply control, provided that it should
be disguised. France accepted this,
caring little for the shadow but anxious
for the substance. France is now trying
to limit the English occupation to three
years.

ChiIdrcn's Day Services.

In the year 1866 it was thought best
by the authorities of the NJ. E. church
to adopt some plan by which the chill
dren of our Sunday schools might re-
ceive more attention and have awak-
ened in their minds a stronger desire
to fit themselves for usefulness in the
the world. This object led to the set
ting apart the second Sunday in June
in each year as the time most fitting tor
devote specially to such work Ac-'
cordingly preparations wcre made for
the proper observance Of the day by
the NJ. f. Sundav-schoOl Of this city,
and amid the tasteful decorations OF
flowers, boquets, and singing of birds,
day was spent in Il very profitable and
enjoyable manner. The morning ex-
ercises consisted largely of responsive
reading, interspersed with singing and
recitations by Lydia Burnett and Jen-
ME Visscher. The evenings program
was almost entirely rendered by the
children. Opening address by Nora
Nice, as in the morning. Recitations
by Lena Coy. Vashti Gardner. Nellie
West. Nora Nice, Charley Nice, Char
ley Mitchell, and closing address by
Monte Tulleys. Dialogues by Beula
and Anna Strohm, Katie and Horace
SpanOgle, Lulu Potter. Maggie Vissch-
er, Mary Haley. Mary Forester, Lau-
tn Smith, Lucille McKeeby. The
pieces were well rendered and the ex-
e~rcises were highly instructive and
much good accomplished. The contri-
button to the children,s educational
fund was S5.SI. We are much indebt-
ed to-: the. careful managers for the
success of the enterprise. May God
bless them all. -

Death in n Well,

Mr.. German, who resides near Burr
Oak, Kansas, returned home from town
last Saturday, and in attempting to
draw water for his horses found his
wife and child in the well. dead. II
seems that the child had fallen into the

rescue. She was found with the child
tied up in her apron and the rope fas-
tened around her arm. The foul air
probably caused her death.
