The Record OF Saturdays Bank Failures,
Assignments, Etc.
CORVALLIS, Ore, June I0.-The pri-
vate bank of Hamilton, Job & o..
failed to open its-doors for business this
morning. Job q Co. expect to pay the
depositors in full as soon as their assets
can be realized upon. There was no
preceding distrust apparent, but a
steady withdrawal of deposits on account
of the prevailing financial stringency.
The assets are $255 900, in money, notes,
county securities and real estate. The
liabilities are $255, 900, of which $171,-
900 is deposits. General confidence is
expressed that the concern will be able
to resume business shortly. The First
National bank kept its doors open till 6
o'clock.
Sioux Cry, Iowa, June 10.-The Union
Stock Yards State hank filed an assign
ment this morning. Its assets are
placed at $42S,667; liabilities, at $685.
l40.
The bank Ia capitalized at 5000, 900.
The clearinghouse committee which
investigated the failure stated that it is
due to loose methods of carrying on
business and will not affect anybody
else in the city. The deposits are less
than $50, 900 and there is no possibility
of any loss to depositors.
CINCINNATI, June 10.-The Citizens
National bank of Hillsboro was closed
today by order OF the comptroller of cur
rency. A cousin OF Ex-Governor For
aker is president Of the bank, and J. j..

Pensionsrs Of the Revolution.

Upon the death Of Mrs. Anna Maria
Young, which occurred at Easton, Pa,
on Wednesday, the last Revolutionary
widow who drew pension In this dis
trict was stricken from the lists. Mich
ael Fritz, the last survivor Of the war of
1919 in this district, died about a year
ago at his home near Reading. There
are still several widows of the survivors
of the war of 1912 drawing pensions from
the Philadelphia office, and quite num-
Der Of the survivors of the Mexican war.
The theory that pensions prolong life
by the removal of the constant worry to
which aged persons of the poorer classes
are subject is borne out by the remark
able vitality of the vast army of pen
sioners. There are still Is widows Of
Revolutionary soldiers drawing pensions
throughout the country. Mrs. Young,
who died on Wednesday, was the Oldest,
having been but few months less than
100. She was the widow of the late Cap
tain Jacob Young, whom she married
when she was S2. Despite her tender
age, Captain Young was her third hus-
band. The gallant captain survived six
VI uldiIleu Il6. MIS-. Ou0R
leaves 80 great-grandchildren and a
large number of great-great-g t-grandchil-
dren, all by her first and second hus-
bands.
When one considers the great dispar-
ity in the ages of the surviving Revolu-
tionary widows and their late husbands,
it looks very much as though some Of
the marriages had been purely CONNER
cial transactions. The Revolutionary
war was over in 1888. Take the case Of
one of these danes who is now rs and
who married her husband when she was
% years old. He could scarcely have
been less than 90 when the war was over.
This would make the marriage take place
in 1843. On the theory that he was 20
when the war was over, and she was 25
when she married him, he must have
been so at that interesting period Of his
life. Then, when he died shortly after,
she merely exchanged husband for a
snug pension. Philadelphia Record.

A Horse with an Artiosial Eve.

A fine looking brown gelding owned
by DR.. Walter w. White had one of his
eyes injured about two years ago and
gradually lost the sight in that optic
The case was brought to the attention of
DR.. Ward, the state veterinarian, some
weeks ago. 1t is a difficult matter to
secure artificial eyes for horses that will
not warp, break OF fall out. DR.. Ward
knew that the proper article could be
procured in England, and in reply to a
letter the delicate piece of compound
was received few days ago. tits made
Of composition Of vulcanite and will
not change color or become easily in
jured. Several days ago DR.. Ward dried
up the injured eye and placed small
circular piece of vulcanite in the socket,
so as to accustom the horse to the new
sensation. The imported eye was put in
at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon. Dir.
Ward put few drops of oil on the disk
like arrangement, and with the aid of a
lancet raised the eyelids and placed the
eye in position. The artificial adorn-
ment looks exceedingly natural.-Balti-

SAN FRANCISCO, June 10.-The direct
ors of the Veterans Home association
had meeting tonight ande engaged in
an exceeding lively discussion of matters
arising out OF disclosures relative to the
management of the Yountville home.
Secretary Rockwell rendered his resig-
nation in consequence of the dissatisfac-
tion with his administration, and ]. j..
Scoville was elected his successor. The
committee investigating the affairs at
Yountville submitted an expense bill of
$1,000. Among other items was one for
$500 by experts for examining ex.Treas-
urer Royce's books. Another was that
of Inspector Maloney, who was sent to
Yountville to examine the condition of
the buildings, and commenting on this
bill, Attorney General Hart, member
OF the board, declared Maloney's state
ments were lie from beginning to end
and he ought to be prosecuted for per-
jury. The statement was made that
under Secretary RockwelPs manage
ment efforts were made to induce the di-
rectors to negotiate loan of $1,000, when
az matter OF fact there was $3.50 in
the bank to the homes credit. A con-
troversy arose over this statement that
nearly led to blows between Rockwell
and member of the board. The bill
of the investigating committee was re-
terred 10 a committee.

The Great Professional Race Won Hand
lily by Gaudaur.
AUSTIN, Texas, June 10.-The Austin
regatta came to a close today. The
great professional race was between
Gsudaur, Peterson and Rogers; prizes
$500 to first, $500 to second, $500 to
third, and 5000 to fourth. The distance
waH three miles with turn. The start
was good. Peterson and Btanbury
seemed TO be the most vigorous, but
Gaudaur's long steady stroke was suffi-
cient to give confidence to his hackers.
Although he was slightly behind up to
the turn stake, on the turn Gaudaur did
the quickest work and got in the stretch
with ths same long, steady pull that
he started with. Peterson turned Sec
ond, Stanbury third, Hanlan fourth,
Teemer fifth and Rogers last. On the
stretch there was never doubt as to
the victory. Gaudaur easily got the,
lead length by length until he was 10
lengths ahead of Peterson, and he made
the finish at that distance, followed by
Peterson. Stanbury, Hanlan, Teemer
and Rogers. The time was 10 minutes
and second, which beats the best pre-
vious record rs seconds.

game for the highest stakes known to
man-namely, his life-was played with
nerve In this respectiti is not outdone by
any incident in the human story, neither
is it capable of being surpassed. As
such it is entitled TO a place in the record
of supreme examples of the recklessness
that courts disaster. The instance may
be useful in illustrating a discrimination
in the use Of words. 1t is not an ex-
ample of the dash that seduces sympathy
under the name daredeviltry. 1t does
display the analogous quality disparaged
as foolhardiness. The distinction is
grounded in the quality of motive in
spring the act. Emulation in the hunt
ing field, for example, that dares an inn
possible leap beguiles the sy1npathies.
Emulation in eating poison inspires dis
gust. But the game in this case was
played with nerve all the same.--New

The president of the chamber OF COM
merce also presented Bayard an address.
Bayard replied that not only personally,
but also representing his fellow-country-
men and their government, he gave
sincere thanks for the gracious recep-
tion accorded him. He alluded to his
trip being made in a ship flying the
American flag, which he was sure was
but the precursor of a feet of vessels
American built, finer and faster, which
would ply between the United States
and southampton. He congratulated
the citizens of Southampton upon select
ing their home as the terminus in Eu-
rope of such an extended commerce as
the future would develop. He said he
valued bis official designation chiefly as
a means of giving greater facilities to
more perfectly bring about a harmony
OF interests between the two great
branches Of the English-speaking race.
Bayard's manner and words captivat-
ed every body. He and the Blaine party,
with Senator and Mrs. Cameron, left
Southampton on q special train, which
reached London at 9:16.

old Fashions Revived.

There can be no doubt that the pre-
vailing fashions have been greatly in
1uenced by the recent exhibition of the
arts de la femme held at the Palais de
pIndustrie, Paris, and which has proved
such o great attraction to the feminine
populationnu
In. all bthe new ''creations" we notice
many innovations borrowed from the
marseleuB retrospective exhibits which
have caused quite revolution in modes
Of dressitgp Even in the wonderful
draperies of the Tanagra, dating from
before Tho Christian era, one can find
suggestion. The splendid collection Of
ancient prints, ornaments, paintings,
showing all the different styles in toilets,
hairdressing, etc., have proved a great
boon to all our dreesnakers and mil
liners, who have called forth many an
idea for the coming season. And we
shall not be far out in saying that the
new toilets win bear the impress of by
gone days, but with adaptations to date.
When in the same day one can wear,
without in any way breaking the laws
of fashion, O watteau and Louis XIV

MoRR1s PARK, June 10.-The attend
ance today was the largest OF the meet
ing. The event of the afternoon was
the Great Eclipse stakes, worth $4,000
TO the winner. From sportsman's g
standpoint it was disappointment as 1t
was more like procession than race.
Nobody ever saw race won in handler
fashion. The great prowess OF Domino
frightened all but Dobbins, Declare, st..
Julien, San Lucas and Hurlingham out
OF the race. In fact it was a foregone
conclusion that the Keene representa-
tive would win.
Domino was quite tractable at the
post and when the flag dropped he APP
peared slow to move away. Rounding
the elbow, however, Domino, under
pull, strobe up to Declare and the
Blemton candidate, and the trio swept
head and head into the dip, Lamley
moving Dobbins up from behind.
Domino was not the least distressed
by his efforts, and Taral was enthusiastic
about the colt. Declare ran a remark
ably good race, considering the fact that
he waa lame in the paddock before the
race.

MADRID, June 10.--Riots have broken

is indignation aroused against taxation
arising from military reforms. The
Provincial Defense association is circu-
lating pamphlets advocating that the
province of Corunna should be placed
under British protectorate. The move
ment is of local character and does not
extend to other parte of Spain. The
