UNITED IN DEATH.

Myrtle DEAN went away from home,
last summer TO see the fair and to spend
the winter with her sister In Chicago.
Only last week she was well and happy.
Yesterday her body was brought home,
and today it will be buried. She was in her
twenty-third Year, very intelligent. andlas
beautiful as vivacious, Having plighted
her love to Jack Wheeler she was looking
forward to life filed with anticipations of
pleasure and happiness. A letter received
from Chicago on Monday said that she
had taken little cold, which Was follow
ed by telegram telling of her serious i'll
ness of pneumonia, and in a few hours au-
other announcing her death. Her suiIor
and betrothed, who had been sick at his
home in Orange. n. j.. but who did not
know of her sickness expired the same
night in a few hours afterwards.

her open arms to their newer and higher

An oficial statement of the condition
OF the savings banks Of the state Of
New York has just been received, and
the figures contained in 1t present All
eloquent argument against tariff agita-
ton During the year 1893 the amount
Of money deposited In the savings
banks was $1S7,S47,2S9, and the amount
Withdrawn during the same period was
1921 1866, ,SSO.SS. This shows that the with
drawals exceeded the deposits by $34,-
.15. For several months previous
to January /. 1893, there had been a
steady increase in the deposits, which
was checked when q democratic presi-
dent and democratic congress were
elected in November. 1892. The run on
the savings banks last summer, and the
steady drain of the deposits which has
been reported from time to time since
then, have left no doubt Of the general
condition Of the banks, but II is safe to
say that few believed that the Iabula-
tion Of the returns would show a net
loss OF deposits of over thirty-four MILL
ions of dollars These figures make plain
the terrible effect of tariff agitation
upon the rank and file of the people
On January 1 last there were 1,5S5, l55
savings bank depositors in the state, !"
says the report, "and during the year
there were 291, ,9S4 accounts opened. and
300, 453 accounts closed, showing loss
of accounts of s,46o" Month by month
the multitude of depositors who were
thrown out Of employment by demo-
cratic dull times drew upon their little
reserve funds until hey either exhaust
ed them entirely or drew them down.
II there be added to the loss of deposits
in New York those of other thrifty |
states, such as Massachusetts, Ohio and |
some idea may be obtained of
the consequences of tariff agitation and
the threat of radical changes which has
been hanging over the country since the
democratic party came Into power For
the preceding fat years have
the banks for the lean years Of |
rule, but those who have |
been for months without employment |
are getting near the end of their ripe, |

Childs Is much smaller than rumor
