CHICAGO, April "A special dispatch
from Anoka, MINI, says: The doors of the
First National bank were closed last even
ing. The cashier is in Canada. There is a
woman in the case. P. F. Pratt, the
cashier, went to Minneapolis week ago
last Thursday, and Friday the bank officials
were startled by notes from the Merchants
bank of st. Paul that the account of the First
National was overdrawn $4,000. A mes
senger was at once dispatched to st. Paul
and discovered that Pratt had drawn out
about $1,000 due the bank and about twice
as much more on his own check.
THB BANK EXAMINER
was notified, and gave the books hasty
oYerhauiing. Enough was learned to show
that matters are in a bad way, and that
Pratt is short nearly 500, Zoo. Not know
ing where the end might be, the directors
concluded to place the bank in the hands of
the examiner, and he will appoint receiver.
1t IS impossible at present to tell the amount
OF Pratt's Yllllany, and correspondents in
both Chicago and New York allowed Pratt
to overdraw to the amount of $4,000. In
addition to this, he raised $50, 900 on per
sonal note of Mrs. Neland, an aged widow
residing at Dayton, who trusted Pratt to
manage her business matters to large ex-
tent.
IT ALSO APPEARS
that Pratt, in company with A. S Sparks,
has been specializing in wheat and Sparks
account is OverdraWn $4,000. Last sum
mer, the good people of Anoka were
Mortified to learn that Pratt was on init
mate terms with handsome young
woman of doubtful reputation. The scandal
soon became public property, and his wife
took her two children and went to Boston,
where they have since resided. Soon after
this, the grass-widOw also disappeared,
but it is alleged that she has since lived in
Minneapolis where Pratt supported her
and an illegitimate child. There was quite
a contest in the bank directory at the meet
Ing in January over his position on account
of the scandal, but it was finally decided
that he should close up certain business
matters with which he was familiar before
closing up his affairs with the institution.
1t is believed
HIS sTEALINGS BEGAN
at that time The president of the bank is
L. H. PincknOr, a well-known business
man of this city and a pioneer of the north
west. The capital stock was $3.50, 900.
Unless matters prove worse than ex-
pected, depositOrs will be paid in full. AS
yet, no steps have been taken to hunt down
the absconding cashier, but reward for
his capture will probably be offered at
once. As he has had a weeks start, he is
undoubtedly on the safe side of the Cana
dian line. 1t is learned that he had dis
posed of all his property in this vicinity
some time ago.

Quartz Dirt Consumption.

A local physician says the prevalence
hero Of coughs, hoarseness and phlegm
expectoration is not produced from tax
ing cold, but from inhaling fine par
ticles of quartz dust, with which the air
has been filled for several months. These
particles are carried into the lungs and
throat and cause irritation, and the fire.
quent coughing is the Intellectual effort
OF nature 10 rid the system Of the foreign
particles. The physician further stated
that constant inhaling of this fine quartz
dust will produce symptoms almost iden-
tical with and more speedily fatal than
hereditary consumption. He cited tho
well known fact that the fatality among
miners employed Ia the Crown Point and
Belcher is due to the upper levels Of
these mines being constantly filled with
quartz dust, which has played havoc
with the young men employed there dur
Ing the past five years. The doctor re-
ferred 10 christened the disease quartz
dust consumption, and says the only
remedy for it is TO emigrate to moister

THE BEAST IN CHAINS.

One time, when the circus was on the
Ohio river, below Louisville, Robinson
determined that Chief, who had lately
been very ugly, deserved whipping.
King was fond Of the elephant and pro-
tested, but the next day, when the circus
party came to an island, they stopped to
DO the Hogging. They put rope around
each Of the brute's legs, and throwing
them over the limbs Of trees pulled
away till tho elephant was of his feet
and swinging in tho DIR, back down.
Then tho company began to belabor him
with hammers and stakes and pitch
forks, and kept It up for an hour. They
were ordered to thrash him till he bel.
lowed. but tho beast was game and
never uttered sound. King meanwhile
vas 10 earnest In his protestatiops
against the punishment Of his favorite
that Robinson was ,obliged to send him
away. At last they lighted some hay
under Chief. This brought him round.
He began to culver, and when he felt the
6re he beloved. Then he was taken
down and was . very good elephant for
quite Q while.
But Kings kindness was all lost on the
hardened criminal. Three months after
bis unsuccessful intercession he was tax
ing tho elephant out Of car at Char
lof3e, N. @. "Come out OF there, you big
Ioafer," said the keeper. Chief stepped
out, and when he got on to terra frma he
struck King with his trunk and then
