National Bank Closes

The First National Bank Of What
COM closed its doors to the public yes
terday at II O'Clock. Two or three
weeks ago there was an incipient run
on the bank, bat it did not amount to
much, and the directors thought they
would be able to weather the severe
financial storm through which the
country is passing, but circumstances
beyond their control rendered them
unable to do so. Suspension for time
at least was their only alternative and
as already stated, yesterday notice to
that effect was placed upon the banks
doors.
There was no excitement whatever
about town, there being confident
feeling among the banks deposit0rs
that there would be no loss, and few
troubled themselves even TO go to the
bauk and make inquiries.
Cashier Atkins, when seen by a
HERALD reporter, had nothing TO say
except that every depusitor would he
paid in full. The assets of the bank
were more than ample to meet all
liabilities, which were only about
900, while the securities held by
the bank were more than double that
sum. Ii might, Under existing cir
cumsinnces, take some time to realize
on these, but of the ultimate payment
Of every dollar, there was absolutely no
doubt.
County Treasurer Rogers had on de-
posi- Z few thousand dollars, but this
is al 0 secured by county warrants aud
other good collateral.

One of the Family.

"Beg pardon, but isn't your name GalIupf"
 The man sitting in the counting room looked up. A smiling person age in black coat with shiny areas here and there stood before him.
 "Yes, that's my name," he re- piled.
 "You spell 1t with a 'uf'"
 "Yes."
 "I was sure of it. Gallup is my own name. I spell it the same way"
 "Indeedf"
 "Yes, same way. You came from the East originally, did you not9"

 "That's what I am coming to. When 1 saw your name on the sign I said to myself: There's a rela, tive!

 My friend" |" interrupted the man in the chair, "my parents came from Ireland and spelled their name Gall pc, and 1 changed the spelling to suit myself when 1 came of age. I was born in Western Pennsylvania, and none of the fam fly or any branch of it that 1 know of ever lived in New York, or any where in England. Still" he added, putting his hand in his pocket and drawing out a silver coin, "it's worth half dollar to have met as original and entertaining a member of the Gallup family as you are-if you iont stay too long"
 The gentleman in the shiny black coat took the coin, thanked him profusely and went out. It was more than he had expected.-Chica- go Tribune.

A Guide for the Trolley.

Dr. s. K. Beecher, of Norristown, Pa, has invented trolley guide that will help conductors who manip- ulate the trolley poles to find the wires on a dark night. When the wheel is attached to the end of the pole two prengs, standing out like little horns, ten inches apart, flank the wheel. This device can be dropped downward so as not to in- terfere with the cross. wires, and can be turned skyward when the trolley wheel comes off the wire by an auto matic process. This feeler locates the overhead wire almost instantly, and the car goes speeding on before the passengers have time to grumble. Philadelphia Record.

Sugar Trust Profits.

The New York Journal of Com. merce makes an elaborate analysis of the sugar statistics of the fiscal year ended June 30, 1893, and dem. onstrates that the "elean profit to the most arbitrary monopoly this country ever saw or put up with" was for the year over BPS, ,000, ,000. The sugar refining combination has the biggest bonanza ever known. According to The Journal of Com. merce the actual value of all the sugar refining properties is about $2O, 900, 900, so that the profits of the trust are every year more than equal to the value of the entire prop critics. Congress should not hesi. tate to repeal the existing duty on refined sugars. Why not invite competition i-Buffalo Courier.

She was riding down town in a cable car, and she was clad with beautifully appropriate ineonspicu- ousness. At least it seemed so at frst'glanee, for her black chip hat, her dark brown cloth dress with black braid guipure shirt front were in the perfection of quiet taste. Yet every one was staring at her. She was aware of that fact, and was disturbed by it. She lowered her eyes in an endesvor to escape the amused and inquiring glanees that were cast upon her. And there she saw the explanation of the interest she had excited. She had forgotten to change her half-high bed room slippers of bright red morocco. - Philadelphia Bulletin.

A Hint for me sirL Nnrs.

In the service offered to an invalid the same is true as of all other serv- ice. If it be done by rule and method, as if by the working of ma chinery that has no heart in it, it will fall far short of what it might easily be made by little care and thoughtfulness. If, for instance, a chop-whieh it is well understood the patient must eat plain-be served with a little bunch of eress, the fresh green feeds the eye, and the invalid is conscious that thought has been given to her pleasure as well as to her needs. A whole train of sad and weary thoughts has been changed by one cheerful yellow pansy hastily dropped on tray so that it lay smiling between a cup and cream iug.-Harper's Bazar

The Philadelphia's Long Run Without
 COaIinE.


 Officials of the navy department are very much gratified at the recent performance of the cruiser Philadel- phia, report of which has been re- ceived at the department from her commanding officer, Capt. Baker. It is dated Calloa, August ', and says that the Philadelphia made the run from Rio de Janeiro to Callao, a distance of 5000 miles, in twenty days and eighteen hours without stopping anywhere for coal. This is at the rate of PAP miles a day for continuous run of twenty one days without coaling, and is re- garded by naval officers here as a most remarkable perfornan The Philadelphia left Callao August P for Honolulu, a voyage of 5200 miles, and it is expected she will duplicate her last run and make the entire distance in about twenty-two days without eoaing.-Washington Evening Star.

PUBLIC OPINION.

The situation presents but one pa triotie course to every senator who would uphold the constitutional right of the senate to legislate and who would vote the relief so urgently needed by the nation. That course is to put down obstruction and insist that a vote on unconditional repeal shall be taken.-New York Herald, (Ind
 The New Orleans papers are doing their best to prevent prize fights in that city.

 The whole drift of Mugwump sen- timent aud support at the present time is away from the Democratic party and toward the Republican party. That Is a double blessing to the Democracy.

 The newspaper pictures of J. P. Altgeld, of Illinois, represent him as the ideal Anarchist, and his name, , without the Governor" preceding 1t, is also suggestive. It is appar- ent that there is to be an anti and a pro Anarchist party in the next elec- tion in the Windy City. The re- fusal of the Democrats to indorse Judge Gary, who tried the Anarch- ists, and their indorsement of the man who took leading part in SC. curing the pardon of the "reds, !" for his high judicial honors, has opened the ball. The Republicans have already centered upon Judge Gary, and the fight will be on new hnes--Memphis Appeal. Avalanche, (Dem.).
 It must not be doubted that a cog has slipped somewhere in the editorial apparatus when a Southern and Democratic journalist goes into mysteries over the efforts of mi nority in the senate to preserve the rights and liberties of the people. We say the rights and liberties of the people with a full compre hen- sion of the meaning of those terms. When the demonetization act of 1873 is revived, as it will be by the unconditional repeal of the Sherman act, the prosperity of the people will be turned over to the comparatively small class that owns and controls the bulk of the gold in the country, and the condition of the farmers, the wage earners and the business men will be precisely that which the single gold standard has inn. posed on the same interests in Europe.-Atlanta Constitution, (Dem ).
