Bank at DenCeT.
DENVER, CoLo., Aug. 6.-The Rocky
Mountain Savings Bank did not open its
doors this morning. At 10 o'clock the
president, Frank S. Woodbury., filed an as
signment with the County Clerk, naming
Earl M. Cranston as assignee. There is
about $5S,0O0 in deposits in the bank.
President Woodbury. in a written state
ment to the press says in part:
The troubles that have crowded upon
US during the past seven business days be-
ginning with the failure of the Union
National, followed by the agitation over
the County Treasurer's s. affairs. and accom-
panied by damaging reports in some of the
newspapers, have simply broken us down.
We had hoped to continue in business in
spite of everything, but the pressure upon
US yesterday was more than we could con-
tinue to endure. I consider it absolutely
certain that every claim will ultimately be
satisfied"

OUR VIRGINIA LETTER:

Ar. Editor: A recent visit to Wash
inston reminded us of our premise TO
you, so we will now give you a few
little items regarding onr trip. We
left home in the morning and went by
private conveyance to Alexandria;
after walking araHnd town little we
proceeded to the Ferry, where we
found that the boat (Belle Haven)
would start in q few minutes. then we
procured our tickets and went on
board where there we're quite a num-
ber of people patiently awaiting the
time when we should steam up the
river. The day was uncomfortably
warm, hence our anxiety to be moving;
however, our patience was not tried
s,great deal, for in few minutes the
signal was given and the boat was oil.
AS soon az it began to move de-
lightful breeze sprang mp. What a
lovely scene was presented to the eve!
EVERYWHERE could be seen beautiful
little ystchs, sail-boats and vessels Of
various descriptions. We met the
EXCURSION boat PeR'7-whiGh was
crowded; all on board seemed t9 be
Quite merry. and as they passed US
stratus of beau iful music reached our
ears, which almost made us wish we
had been on boa d the Pentz and not
the Belle Haven, but the peop:e on
the excur,ion boat could not possibly
know our thoughts, and We were ap-
parently as happy lit not as gay a.
they were. From the boat We COULD
see Arlington posing in the distance,
also the Episcopal Seminsry-and II
was hard to determine which were
more beautiful, the green shores OF
MARYLAND or those Of Virginia. AS
we spprosched Washington, we noticed
q great meny handsome buildings,
among them the library aud eapltol
stood prominent, and towering above
the city was the striking menumsnt.
i've visited several Of the handsome
stores also passed several neted build
inss, but did not have time to visit
them. As we had been walking q
GOOD deal, We enjoyed riding on tne
cable cars 10 the ferry. The boat LEFT
for Alexandria at half-past three, and
alter enjoying nice lunch we went
on board snd had charming trip
back. When we Fss>hed Alexandra
We found crowd. Of people going to
an adjacent town-New Alexaudrla-
to witness 8 champion game Of bal
between the girls of New Alexsndrls
ard boy nine. Shortly after thf
game commenced, the advance d young
wouen were compelled to retire on
secount of big rain which came up
they postponed the game to an lnoln
pite time.
We had pleasant drive home, snt

EXPOSITION NOTES.

For the past ten days perfect de-
luge of water from the Atlanta City
Water Works, has been pouring into
the lake at Piedmont Park, the site OF
the Cotton States and international
Exposition at Atlanta, and in short
time the immense basins which make
up the two lakes will be filled with
crystal water. The lake extends for
nearly half a mile along the foot Of the
immense central plaza, skirting many
of the principal buildings. It will be
covered with gondolas and electric
launches, and will be one of Il g
features of the Exposition. In the
center of the main basin will be the
electric fountain, designed by the con-
struc:or of the electric fountain at the
Worlds Fair. This fountain will
throw a solid stream of water q
hundred feet high in the air, and
innumerable sprays and side jets,
brilliantly illuminated from below the
surface Of the lake by electric lenses,
will add to the gorgeous beauty of the
fountain.

A letter from far away Turkey to
the Woman's Board of the Cotton
States and international Exposition
was received a few days ago asking
for space in the woman's building for
an exhibit from the ladies of Turkey.
The space was granted and they will
make display of needle art and other
fancy work done by the women Of
Turkey. The scope of the exhibits in
the Woman's department is widening
every day, and it will doubtless be a
thorough representation of Woman's
work Of the world.
The State press association are going
to attend the Cotton States and Inter-
national Exposition in force. Every
press association in the Union has
beeil invited by the management to
visit the Exposition in October, and
many of them have already accepted.
