CHRISTIAN ENDEAVoR.

The Wiudham County Union of the
Y. p. S. G. L. held successful midwinter
meeting at the Congregational church in
West Brattleboro yesterday. This is the
banner union in Vermont in numbers and
efficiency, and is doing valuable work, es-
pecially in secluded districts, in keeping
alive an earnest religious spirit. large
proportion of the rs or 80 societies was
represented and the afternoon audience
numbered about 200. Twenty went from
the East village. After the opening adj
dress of welcome by Rev. F. S. Smith, the
subject of ''Men for the churches" was
vigorously discussed by Prof. II. H., Shaw
and L. W. Hawley; and missionary
meetings, why have them and how make
the most of them?" was proftably treated
Mrs. l.. w. Hawley and Rev. F. F. Lewis
Hospitable arrangements for lunch were
made by the West Brattleboro young peo-
pie, and after that and the social hour the
afternoon meeting began with song serV-
ice and reports from the societies. In not
few places the young people are holding
I'D the moral tone of the community when
the churches are closed.
Further organization was effected by the
election of Mr.. Ola Houghton of Putney
as secretary, and an executive committee
of five, consisting of the president, Z. IL.
Thompson, the secretary and three others,
was appointed to report constitution at
the summer meeting. Mrs. l.. W. Hawley
was elected secretary for junior societies.
A suggestive paper upon 'The unconven-
tionality of Christ's religious life" by
Miss Helen Fletcher, was read by Miss EN-
ma Gregg. A discussion of "New meth
DDS in the prayer meeting was led by
Rev. Mr.. Rabbit, following which Rev. S.
p. Cook of Mortified gave an earnest and
uplifting address on "The gospel in heart
and life" After short service of prayer
the meeting closed. 1t was an occasion
marked by a vigorous and hearty spirit,
and its influence will be felt through the
| county.

THE "BUSTED" BANK.

work by Mr.. j. Z. Breese Of Ash

AS to what the real condition Of the
bank is, no one knows; not even the
Examiner, as he is unable to form
more than an approximate idea of the
value Of the collateral. Nothing will
be Published, or otherwise made
pubic, it being against the rnles OF
the government. This rule is based
on the supposition that if any infor-
nation could be obtained rs to the
real value Of the assets, Spectators
might he induced to misrepreseut
the facts to depositOrs in order
to buy up their deposits at a
much lower price than they will
probably realize. In spite of the
| lack of definite information how
ever, some buying Of deposits has
already been done. Some have
sold at as high as so cents on the dol
lar and some as low AS - cents. At
the latter figure efforts have been
made to buy large blocks Of deposits.
From toierably satisfactory infor-
nation it is safe to say that not more
than $4,000 can be realized from the
stockholders on their liability ~
stockholders This, together with
collateral amounting nomiually to
$500, 900, will constitute the assets of
the bank as against liabilities of
$220,000. Or the collateral, at least
100000 is known to be valueles-,
thus leaving $3.50, 000 in assets of all
aOrts having any value, TO offset 1920
900 of liabilities, which may grow
larger, but will not grow less.
Some OF the collateral OF the bank

be good, except for the depressed
financial condition, both local and
general. But it IL believed that such
Il large portion will realize little OF

Death of Scion Z. Rose, Jr.
A. p. Morgan.

PULASKI, May 24-News was re-
ceived here yesterday OF the sad
death of Scion +. Rose, Jr., at his home
in Albuquerque, n. NJ. Mr.. Rose was
in his 33d year, and leaves a young
wife aud several small children. he
was born and reared here-was an
exceedingly capable man and u
knightly, courteous gentleman. He
was educated at Webb's School and
Vanderbilt University, and took
high hOnOrs at both. Destined for
the bar, his health failed aud he emil
grated to New Mexico some years
ago hoping that the dryer climate
would restore him. His wife was the
beautiful and accomplished Miss
Booker Mason, of this county. The
news Of Mr.. Roses death was re.
ceived here with profound regret.

WE respectfully suggest to Maj.
Williamson, the Receiver for the
Second National Bank, that he let
the public know all about it. The
best way to satisfy the depositors is
to tell them truthfu!ly what they
may expect, and when they may ex-
pect it. They have been fooled often
enough and long enough. If there is
any right, justice or law left in this
country certainly the depOsitors
have a right to know what has be-
come of their money; who spent it,
who borrowed it, who owes it. This
may hurt the credit Of few, but
better that than to deceive the many.
II the money has been sunk in the
bucket shop and is all gone, let the
people know it, so they will expect
nothing and make their business cal
culatiOns accordingly. In all these
bank failures we think too much
care has been taken to protect the
credit OF a few. The depOsitots are
the creditors, and they have a right
to know who 1t is owes them, what
the collateral is aud all about it. II
is their money. Why should they
be kept in the dark?

IF newspaper rumors be true, Presi-
dent Cleveland has again verified the
adage, "It is the unexpected that
always happens" 1t is said that Mr.
Cleveland has lately announced that
in the called session of Congress, to
be held i'll September, probably, he
will recommend the enactment of
a law to place tax on incomes, and
also recommend the abolition of the
pIOhibitOry tax Of 10 per cent on
State banks of issue. In recommend
ing these two things, Mr.. Cleveland
is no doubt opposing the financial
theories of his eastern friends, and is
certainly running counter to what has
always been regarded as his views on
these subjects, but he will certainly
make himself solid with the majority
of the Democrats of the West aud

The moneyed men have organized
the banks heretofore, and the
mOneyed men have run aud used
the banks heretofore. The prevalent
idea now is for the little fish to start
n bank Of their own, where they can
deposit little when they have it,
and borrow a little when they need it.
1t is to be Peoples Bank, run on the
good old Democratic doctrine of do
ing the greatest good to the greatest
number. The HERALD's suggestion
that one thousand men subscribe
each to 500 of stock has met with
general favor, and all that is needed
now to make the suggestion a go, is
some organized, united effort. IL
some faw men, having the good of
this town and county at heart, and
recognizing the need OF another bank,
will go to work and make the effort,
they will be surprised how easy will
he their success. Already nearly a
hundred men have signitied will

needed is leader. What Columbia
wants is a man with courage enough
