THE NEW BANK.


Wellington TO Have Another Bank Of De-
posit-Tho Building is Purchased.
For some time past a few Of the local
business men haye been considering the
propriety Of establishing sayings bank
in town and 1t was finally decided TO ex.
tend an invitation to G. NJ. Splitter, Of
Boston, Mass, to visit the place with q
view Of getting bis ideas as to the advisa-
bllity of such venture. He arrived last
Wednesday and soon informed them that
he would subscribe stock to bank Of that
kind, II they desired to establish one. The
committee went to work at once TO look
DIP suitable building. The Woolley
building on the west side Of the square
and the Fitch building on the south side
of West MAN street were both looked at
il was also suggested that the lot at the
southeast corner of the square would be q
good site ior bank If proper building
were constructed upon it. 1t was finally
decided TO purchase the Fitch building,
and the deal was consumaled Friday ev-
ening.
Thursday afternoon meeting was held
at which the following gentlemen were
present and signed the application for Q
charter, as incorporators: G. M. Splitter
Of Boston, Mass; G., Z. Splitter, Of Miner
va, o.; VIM. Vischer, J. NJ. l0tterbacher
+. w. Bennett and T. r. Herrick.
The bank will be known as the Home
Savings bank of Wellington, Ohio 1t will
be organized under the laws Of thu
state OF Ohio and will have capital stool
OF $500c0, divided into shares Of $40
Z each. Il is not to be bank Of issue, bu
, will receive deposits, pay interest on tim
deposits, make collections, and issue bill
Of exchange.
The stock was all subscribed within
few hours Saturday.
/ The room will be fitted up with the Ia
o est designs OF banking furniture and
ysult wlth-oue hundred sufety boxes Il
il the use Of depositors. Work will be b
gun at once.
. It is expected that VIM. Vischer wi
% be president, @. Z. Splitter vice.presidel
and r. A. Wilbur cashier.
, 1t is indeed remarkable that the stoC
should have been subscribed In such
short time. 1t is certainly an lndicati,
IN that there is plenty Of money In Wellin
II ton when the proper channel is opened
Of allow II 10 flow.

Water Commissioners.

The monthly meeting of water COM
missioners occurred last night. These
gentlemen do not have a great deal of
routine business, consequently their
meetings are short. The superintend-
ent's and treasurer's financial reports
were read and accepted. The following
bills were presented:
I. J. Norman, salary. $500
81. Latin, helper. .......-...-........... $500
w. n. Young, supplies. Observation-Disclosures. LIS
G. j. Crandau. surveying mill. ...-...---.-. 1000
The secretary's report showed 81 col
lected from T. A. Hudson and 81 from
G. L. Schmidt for ground rent. Inquiry
showed that it was for few feet fenced
in by these gentlemen of the mill prop
erty for corral, the rent being for a
year, and the amount paid sufficient to
prove title to the mill site.

ChildHand Mother.

Little Myrtle Gibson did not look like
the same child after going through the
cleaning and dressing process yesterday,
and she was so pleased with the differ
ence and with her newly-found bene-
factor that she quite forgot her mother
and followed Mr.. Gardner about the
streets with great devotion. She is a
roguish little elf, though, and as Mr..
Gardner says, is as ''sharp as lightning y
Before leaving he had talk with the
mother. Her eyes were fastened to the
ground during the interview and on no
account would she look him in the face.
He tried to pursuade her to abandon her
mode of living and try to make SOME
thing of herself, but got feeble encour-
agement. Asked what she would do,
she said she would not be in town
twenty-four hours after her child left,
and in answer to a question if she did
not think it best for the child to go, she
said: ''If did not think so, would
cut its throat Whether the remark
was from obstinacy or an admission that
she had not been giving the child its due
is not known.

Circuit Court.

The session is nearly ended as far as
jury trials are concerned. The jury in
the case of Martha Perkins VS. A. Will
son decided for plaintiff.
This morning the case of Banker vs..
Willig was taken up. The defendant
gave his wife promissory note for 800.
This she negotiated to Mr.. Banker, and
now Willig denies any consideration for
the note. Mrs. Willig, now Mrs. Cohen
of Portland, is a witness on the case,
and with her little girl, is present at the
trial. The defense tried to impeach her
testimony by proving that she was un-
true, to Willig, but this was not clearly
shown.
Mrs. Julia A. Blossum was granted a
divorce yesterday, after hearing of the
testimony. Blossum did not appear.

THE FRUIT OUTLOOK.
A Variety OF Opinions from Several
County Fruit Growers.

Has the late cold spell injured the
fruit? Following are a variety of opin-
ions from several leading fruit raisers,
by which it would appear that it is a
question of location. We think, how
ever, that those whose views have a
violet tinge are more frightened than
injured. Of course, at this time, all are
apprehensive, but when blossoming
time comes there is almost always a
beautiful display of the pink flowers
which adorn the peach tree. Then
follows small scare about frost, and
after that the trees generally have a
vigorous setting of fruit, and the worry
has been thrown away, with no chance
for ompensation.
Mr.. Bolton of 15-Mile says the fruit in
that section is not injured by the, cold
spell and unless there should be late
frosts the fruit crop will be good.
DIR. Sanders this morning brought in
few branches cut from his fruit trees.
A part of the peach buds have been
killed, principally the Early Crawfords.
Mr.. Sanders trees were more forward
than any in the neighborhood near him.
Mr.. T. M. Denton of Mill creek says
that the fruit is not injured in his
section.
Mr.. E. Schanno says that he has
heard few reports of loss. Mr.. Coats
worth of lower Smile says his peach
crop will be an almost total failure. He
has not examined the cherry trees.
Mr.. F. A. Seufert says the fruit is all
right in his hisneighborhood. He says that
in the fall the ground should be plowed
close up to the tree to cut off all the
small roots near the surface, while the
deeper roots are not affected by every
temporary little warm spell that comes,
to Istart the sap running and make the
buds swell prematurely.

The MILITIA.
The DalIes Company the Largest In the
Regiment--Tactics.

If anyone is foolish enough to imagine
that our country is in peril he should go
to Armory hall of Wednesday night
and observe the militia practicing at
their weekly drill. There he will see as
fine company of soldier boys as his
eyes ever rested upon, and the perfect
accord in which they perform military
maneuvers argues much for the invinci-
BILE qualities of trained troops, compared
to the hit and miss monkey-shines of
dIsorganized mob. If the volley they
fire, when in line, was of lead instead of
air, it would NOW down the enemy like
grain before the sickle, and the rapidity
and accuracy with which they change
position would bewilder foe less up to
snuff so badly he would not know
whether he was afoot or horseback.
The company, though recently reor-
ganized, is a credit to the state, and is
the largest in the regiment, numbering
81 men. Every member takes an active
interest and seldom misses being present
drill night. It is very satisfactory to
state these facts, for only short time
dSO Ill0 SIudll I0L1Adub VI LLlc OIO COul-
pany became discouraged and were in
despair of ever being again reorganized
and placed upon a prosperous footing.
The brilliant results achieved at their
late ball shows as well the earnest effort
of the men as the appreciation of the
public, and last night Capt. Chrisman
embraced the opportunity to thank
several by name who had been active in
the work of making of the ball SO grand
success. The following are the officers: !:
Capt.-Levi @. Chrisman.
First Lieut. Jameson.
Second Lieut.. r. McAvoy.
Sergeants-D. H. Roberts, AL. Reese,
A. A. Urquhart, II. n. Campbell, Ed.
Riggs and T. J. Sullivan.
Corporals-Jess Allen, Matt Shoren,
Gus Bartell and ID. Lemerson.
When the weather gets pleasanter the
company will drill in the open air. The
hall, though large one, does not per-
NIT of executing many fine movements,
like the skirmish drill, for instance,
where the men must be a distance of
five feet apart.
