DIR BANKING HOUSES.

Last week the INTELLIGENCER pub
lished the Official statements of every
banking house in Lafayette county.
1t must have beer Il ource of graft
fcatIon to the honest yeomanry of
Lafayette county that the banks, the
pulse of the county's stability, made
such a c~ommendable showing.
We venture the assertion that there
is not a county of equal Importance IN
the state that can equal Lafayette in
the stability of its banking houses.
1t is strange too that in this age
there are people who are natural enc
mics to banks. They look upon a
banker as a blasted bondholder and
his institution a corporation whose hus-
mess it is 10 grind countless millions
out OF the people.
The INTELLIGENCEE does not want
to see too much power given the banks
of the county. We want them to
thrive on merit and not on special law
privileges. But it is a fact that the
state banks pay more taxes in proper
ton than any other institutions for the
privileges they enjoy. They pay more
taxes than is paid upon any other
classes of property. They bear more
responsibility than other institutions.
They accommodate more people. They
are, at least such as we have IN this
county, a benefaction to humanity.
The man who is afraid to place his
deposits with any bank in this county
would be afraid of his own shadow.

The Benozy, who occupy a densely
wooded country among the hills OF
Eemaraha, jump from tree to tree just
like monkeys, and are not easily fol-

exceedingly rocky. They are very
timid. and it is said that they die of
fright when c%aptured.

Hobart Carnival.
The second night of the carnival. which
is now being given at the Masonic Tenn
pie by the Woman's Republican Associa-
ton was a much more successful one than
the opening on account of the difference in

last night from the time the doors opened
until the last article had been sold and the
las. rCte of the excellent music furnished
by the orchestra had been silenced G. r.
Phillips acted as the chairman of the even
ing. and during the early portion several
prominent republican speakers addressed
the gathering. Mrs. J. Ellen Foster. ma
tional prssiden. of the Woman's Republican
Association, spoke on the work OF women
In the last campaign; Representative w.
E. Andrews of Nebraska spoke on the re-
duction of the public debt during repunli-
can administrations; Representative Curtis
Of Kar rsas also spoke OF the women who
were connected with the recent campaign,
while Miss Boswell president of the Anti
Tammany Society of New York; G. "
Gates president of the Sound Money League:
Mrs. Mary 8. Lockwood. Capt. E. A. Kreid-
ler and J. r. Garrison also spoke on va
rious principles OF republicanism. Besides
the music furnished by the orchestra and

MRS. LOUNT IN CUSTODY.
Inspector HOllinberger Has IL
Widow in Safe Keeping.

Mrs. Virginia n. Lount will not appear
at the Capitol tomorrow leading the "pris-
oners of poverty" as she Intended, for yes
terday afternoon Inspector Hollnberger
had her taken in custody for safe keeping
as well as to put an end to her practice
of writing annoying letters to people of
prominence. The complaint against the
widow is insanity. When Mrs. Lount's
mission here was made known Tuesday be-
cause Of her visit to police headquarters,
people who had received letters from her
made complaint to the detectives. Among
those who received letters from the wo-
man was one of the most prominent min
listers in the city. When these complaints
were received Inspector Hollinberger con-
ciuded TO arrest her. One Of the persons
who entered complaint against her feared
she might do some harm. She called at
the detective office yesterday morning be-
cause she felt offended at a newspaper ar
ticle, and 1t was after this visit that COM
plant was made about her. Late yester-
day afternoon she called again and then
she was put under arrest. Then she COM
plaired bitterly of the conduct of the Off
woulc call on some of her senator chums''
to help her out. AS heretofore published in
me star, she wants to be known as the
Modern Portia," Uncle Sans Baby"
Fenale Coxey' or Queen Of the Popu-
lists" During the campaign she says she
was called .'McKinley's widow" She seems
to have fondness for Shoes and said
yesterday that she had purchased seven
pairs Of them and had the bill sent to a
United States senator.
Mrs Lount gave her name as Mrs. Robt
B. Lines when she reached Lieut.. Kelly }
station, and said she was the widow Of the
lawyer of this name. Today Drs. Neyitt
ard Hickling. who examined her. adjudged
her insane. and this afternoon Sanitary
Officer Frank sent her to the asylum. The
records show that she was discharged from
the asylum aS improved. and II NAV nor

cause really serious trouble and
annoyance. On other occasions
they are simply amusing. Some
years ago an advertisement of a
political meeting was inserted in
Philadelphia paper. The advertise
ment was intended to announce
that a we'll known leader would adj
dress "the masses" that evening.
Owing to the displacement Of a
space however, the public of Phil
adelphia was informed that the ad-
dress would be delivered to them
asses at National Hail." A re-
ligious paper called the Gospel Ban
ner, which is published at Augusta,
Maine, once attracted attention
through the prank of a printer, who
transpOsed two words of its motto,
so that it read: In the name of our
God we will up set our banner"
The omission of comma was the
cause of a suit for libel brought
against Western newspaper by the
inventor of patent medicine. A
testimonial to the worth of his COM
pound was inserted in the paper and
read as follows: II now find my
self completely cured, after being
brought to the very gates of death
by having taken only five bottles of
your medicine" The comma which
should have come after the word
death" was unnoticed by the COM
pOsitOr.-Youth's Companion.
