A HElVY CRASH.

st. Johns IN. b. dispatch: Some
startling facts relating to the defunct
Maritime bank have leaked out in court
here. The evidence justified the suspi-
cion that Mcclellan, manager, kept two
sets of certain books to hide the trne
state of the banks affairs from the di-
rectors. One Of the liquidator's clerks
swore that the deficiency of the bank,
after deducting the value OF assets, was
realized nothing from Stewart or from
Gny Beyan Il Co, who owed the bank
5000, 900. Mcclellan, who is largely re-
sponsible for the crash, is said to be OPP

The RtQht Spirit.

Colman Eagle: The operations at
the cheese factory are still on a very
small scale on account of the lack of
milk. The price for milk is the high
est paid at any factory, and the cash
can be had at the factory each Mon
day morning and we should think that
could be used. The capacity can he
increased to use twenty thousand
pounds per day, which would dis
tribute $4,000 each season in and
around Cotton. or couise with such
quantity OF milk an addition to the
factory, which would contain cream
cry, would be necessary. Colton is
not yet a manufacturing town, and
this cheese factory is a start, and will
scatter much if not more ready cash
than anything else we can ever get to
work here. So let every effort be made
to at least put it on aself-supporting
basis, by selling sufficient milk to make
cheese enough to cover the expense of
operating. The factory is now max
ing 80 pounds Of cheese per day.

ROBBED IN RHoAD DAYLIGHT.


A HIGHWAY RoBBER SECURES FoBTY-THREE
DOLLARS AND REIREATs TO THE WOODS
Yesterday morning as Mr.. John t. Smith,
a farmer living near Sprague, was driving
to this city, he was met by n Highway rob-
ber in the middle of the road just this side
Of Mr.. Peters place, who relieved him Of
all the money he had. The robber was
dressed in tramps clothing so arranged as
to disguise his form, and either had
his face blacled or covered with
black mask, and was concealed
in some bush or bushes mar the road in a
little thicket Of woods through which the
road leads. As Mr.. Smith approached,
while driving at an ordinary speed. he was
startled by the cry of 'halt." The next in
slant appeared the hideous william with a
gun leveled at him who demanded his
money.
Mr.. Smith took in the situation at once
and began to hand out his cash. When
this was done the robber with gun still
pointed at Mr.. Smith, picked up the money
and walked backwards for about nve
or six rods and then motioned to
Mr. Smith to start on. Mr.. Smith
kent watch of the robber who kept back
ing away until he reached the thick timber
when he turned and ran out ofsight. Mr..
Smith had started to town for the purpose
of paving his taxes and had about forty
three dollars with him as neor as he can
remember Officers were notified and all
precautions taken to catch the thief, but
tip to q late hour last night we did rot hear
OF any developments in the case
