THEY MUST DISGORGE.
Suits to Recover Unearned Dividends
by a Defunct Bank.

LINCOLN, Neb., June 20.-Nearly one
hundred moneyed men of Illinois, scattered
over the State from Chicago to East st.
Louis many of whom reside at Peoria and
Galesburg, have been made defendants in
what is likely to prove the most sensational
national bank litigation ever instituted in
the West; the next chapter in the famous
case in which Charles Mosher, president of
the defunct Capital National Bank of this
city, figured to the extent of stealing some
thing over a million dollars.
His bank closed in 1891. Ten years prior
to that time the Capital National had been
paying immense dividends, amounting in
the aggregate to half million of dollars.
The stockholders were mostly Illinois peo-
pie. Receiver Hayden, of the MoSher bank,
now has brought suit against these stock
holders to force them to return the divi-
dends paid by Mosher on the ground that
they were not earned, but were paid out of
the money of the depositors. He says that
the books show that the bank never made
dollar. A similar suit has just been de-
cided here against a New York stakeholder
Ward Howard, of New York city, who must
return S2S 0C0 paid to him In dividends by
Mosher Receiver Hayden, j. w. Dewese.
Charles MagoWn, j. ii. -AmeS ana ii. Nj.
Lamberson have just returned from Chi
cago, where they took Mosher's testimony
in the case. Mosher declares that the div
idends We're earned and that II the books
do not show ii they have been mutilated
since he left the bank. The law is clear
that If the dividends were unearned they
tors Mr. Mosher. it is said, is living in
Chicago in regal style.

Bicycle Accidents.
The Wheel.

L
1t cannot be denied that man will take
greater risks on a wheel than he would
think of takingIif he was on foot. He feels
sure of his ability TO ride a chalk line or to
go at great speed, and he will cross the
track in front of a trolley car or he will
pick his way through a press of wagons,
where a slight miscalculation will throw
him under the wheels of the vehicles When
he has done this thing once he feels sure
that he can do it again. Then, too, he will
rush in front of spirited horses in the park,
frightening them and exposing himself to
the danger of being run down by a frantic
animal. The use of a little common sense
and prudence will prevent nearly all of the
bicycle accidents. The dangers of cycling
should by this time be pretty well under
stood. These dangers are no greater than
those attending almost everything else that
a man does for pleasure or business. A man
cannot stir out of his house without ex-
posing himself to danger. But the chances
in his favor are so great that he seldom
thinks of the risks that he takes when he
goes upon the streets. Horses run away
houses fall down, mad dogs rush through
the street lunaticS explode firearms trolley
cars run away, manhole covers blow off
trolley wires break. bricks fall from CHM
neys or from the walls of buildings going
up sunstrokes PROSTATE people to the
earth. and a thousand and one other things
happen which injure or kill people. The
wheelman Is exposed to them as every other
person The use of the bicycle has only in
troduced a few new kinds of accident every
one of which be avoided, however, by
good sense and caution, except those caused
by a breakdown OF the wheel.

choice among them. Generally speaking. it
is best to ride as high frame as possible
so that there need not be many inches of
SADDLE post let out above. Besides the fact
that II looks unslghtly, an exposure OF five
or six inches of this post tends to make the
entire machine lacking in, rightly. Much
depends upon the proper adjustment of the

zontal tipped neither to the front nor to
the rear. and placed just high enough to

when the pedal is at its lowest point.
There are many excellent saddles now made
upon the most approved hygienic principles,
and as soon as a woman finds one which
is comfortable she need look no further.
The handle bars of the machine should be
well raised, so that the rider may sit erect,
and the handles should not be too far
apart If there is plenty of space between
the bars and the saddle mounting and dis
mounting will be rendered much easier.
The average woman had better not under
take to ride a gear higher than 6e or g.
because if she does, she will find that the
extra amount of force which she has to
put into every push of the pedals is more
exhausting than the process of making a
few more revolutions with less effort in

The First Pneumatic.

New York Commercial Advertiser.
Ireland, as everybody knows, is the home
of the pneumatic tire. The desire of a
Dublin surgeon to relieve the sufferlngs of
his little daughter, who was a cripple, was
the incentive for the making of the first
pneumatic tires. Confined to the use of an
invalid's chair on wheels In getting from
place to place, the little girl complained or
the jolting as she was propelled over the
rough streets of the Emerald Isles capital.
To relieve her distress her father caused
two air tubes, circular In form, to be con-
structed and fitted to the wheels of the in
valid chair From this sprang the pneu-
matte tire for BICYCLES Crude in it's be-
ginning, a source of alternate joy and sor-
row to the bicycle rider, derided by the
solid tire adherent, its advent was hailed
with mingled doubt and glee. And what a
curious looking thing the first pneumatic
tired bicycle was! It was confidently as
serted that such clumsy, heayy-looking
thing would never be popular. The rider
of one was an object of great curiosity, as
much so as are the few timorous old souls
to-day who still cling to the antiquated
machine of the eighties.

Veriscope in action, and the most striking
point about the machine seems to be its
simplicity. 1t consists of an ordinary
calcium-light stereopticon protector, In
front of which passes a continuous ribbon
OF transparent film. This film ifs about two
and one-half inches wide and is wrapped
about spool, like the ribbons displayed In
millinery shops The spool is placed upon
a spindle above the machine and passing
downward in front of the lens is wound
upon an empty spool below. The whole
process consists in unwinding the film from
one spool and winding it upon another veryd
rapidly. This operation causes the whirringl
noise noticed whenever the pictures ara
shown. The actual photographs are EACH
about one-half an inch In height, and they
are developed on the film ribbon about am
inch apart. In the reproduction of the Card
son City fight there are 142, 900 of these pho-
tographs distributed over two miles of RIB
bon. AS the fight lasted about an hour III

is hoped that the start can be made from
some point nearer the center of the city
than the starting point of the Decoration

where it will not interfere with traffic. If
this place can be secured for the start the

NEW YORK, June 20.-Herman Wars

been seeking admission into the Presby

long time had the support Of Rev. DIR. John
Hall, of the Fifth-avenue Presbyterian
Church, was to-day publicly denounced be-
fore the congregation of that church as an
immoral person and guilty of gambling
He was also suspended from the COM

was read to the fashionable congregation,
Mrs. Warszawaik, who was present, arose
and declared in loud voice that her hus-

Mrs. Warszawaik exclaimed: my hus-
band is innocent. l cannot hear him harsh
ly spoken of before so many people and not

zawaik from the church. The congregation
had begun to sing the hymn announced
