A singular stat, Of Ansirs.

Doubtless it is in the interest of the
welfare of all our people that banks, the
doors Of which are open for business and
which are ready to receive deposits,
have fatty refused to honor the checks
OF their depositors Notwithstanding they
have the money with which to pay them,
but it is most singular state of affairs,
and the docility with which the depos-
itors have accepted the situation is sur
prising.
The contract between the bank and
the depositor provides that the bank will
take charge Of the dcpositor's funds and
pay them out on tho depositor's check.
The assumption that the bank may at
any time, In the exercise of its own dis
erection, forcibly withhold the deposit.
or's property from him is not contem.
plated by the terms of the contract usu.
ally made between the parties. The de
positor has not authorized the bank tc
do more or anything else than care fol
his money and pay it out on his check.
Under ordinary circumstances the re
fusal or bank to honor the check of it:
depositor when it admits that the money
is in it's possession and belongs to the de
positor, would be accepted as an evi
dence that the bank is itself bankrupt
This method of preventing run on tn,
bank is certainly quite effective.
The good spirit in which the deposito
accepts the inconvenience to which he i
thus subjected is a strong evidence o
that public spirit which may save tn
community from irreparable disaster
At the same time it is worthy of remarl
that no pugnacious crank has as we

Until he saw it with his own eyes, the

cisque Sarcey, the region of Jack the

a hideous blot on creation and place
which it would be unsafe for him to OK
plore except under police protection. He
came away from it agreeably disillu-
stoned. Had he remained long enough

exhibition, opened at st. Georges parish

that the east enders were people of taste

of respect for law and order. Window

The famous race between the Uanni.
bal City and the Ocean Spray occurred
in 1889. Prior to this race the Ocean
was from st. Louis to Keokuk. The
early part Of the race was very close
and the excitement was intense. When
nearing Bissell's point, the Ocean Spray
found the Hannibal City passing her
The mate on the Ocean Spray one Davis
becoming desperate, ordered the head OF
barrel Of turpentine to be knocked in
His men were then ordered to dip the
wood in this turpentine before putting
it in the furnace, the object being tc
quickly increase the steam pressure
The Ocean Spray was supposed to carry
only 100 pounds of steam, but Davis
thought that by putting another Niger
on the safety valye" he could run the
pressure up to 200 pounds and distance
his rival. In carrying the dripping wood
to the furnace the track became satu
rated with turpentine, which caught frt
from the open furnace. The flames quick
ly reached the barrel. An attempt wa,
made to throw the barrel overheard, but
it exploded, and the burning oil beinf
scattered all around the boat was soon

Kansas farmers are complaining of q
new pest known as tho horn fly-so
called from its habit of resting on the
horns of cattle-from whence it moves
to various parts of the body, piercing the
skin with its serrate proboscis and suck
ing the animals blood. Its habits are
not only annoying, but exceedingly harm
full. The pest was unknown here year
ago, but is now one Of the most album
dant and hurtful Of the fly species. Pro-
fessor Kellogg Of the state university
says it is II native of Europe, and was

The following story Is told on mis-

bachelor keeping house for himself In the
southern part of China: One morning
in ordering his dinner. he wished to tell
his cook to buy him a chicken. Instead
of saying Eye" for chicken he aspirated
the word, saying, "Buy me che.
His cook thought that was an eminently
proper command and went about his
marketing in high good humor. AT noon
the missionary found no chicken cooked

not returned. About dark the mar
came back, saying: "This was not q

versatlon about the failure of the
Equitable Mortgage Company, incor'

the Company In 1886. since which time
he has represented 1t In our city and
sold over five hundred thousand dol
lere worth of securities in mortgages
and debenture bonds that have paid
o. high as per cent.
~ About half of the loans have been
paid off by the company, and only

now held by our citizens, of which
some thirty odd thousands are held
