show that mortgages held by the bank
on a number Of pieces Of real estate
were for amounts largely in excess Of
their assessed value. He cited the fols'

meant:

The records also showed, Mr.. Atkins said,
that in January, 1897, few days before the
the bank a part of lot g. block 49, Robert
son & Van Etten's addition, for $1,000, and the
bank had assigned the mortgage for $3.50 on
the same day.
The mortgage ON lots and 5, Nc
Carrick's subdivision of block So,
Lyman Dayton's addition, according to
the statement read by Mr.. Atkins,
showed the following transactions:
Aug. "a, 1892, Emil Greget gave two
mortgages for 81 500 on each lot to
LOuIS lIdinUeTl. OH sept. L. 1917, Lam
bert assigned them for the sum of
$4,000 to w. r. Wilmot, and on the
same day Wilmot assigned them to
the bank for the same amount The
assessed valuation Of the property, Mr..
Atkins stated, was $3.50. In conclusion
Mr.. Atkins stated that if all the as
sets were of the same value as the
realty assets made in the report to the
bank examiner in 1895, the figures would
have to be discounted materially, and
the chances Of the depositors realizing
any great amount were very poor. Of
the 100000 mentioned in the report of
the bank in December, 1895, as loans and
discounts $4,000, Mr. Atkins stated
was on notes with only one name on
the note.
After some further talk a resolution
was passed to the effect that 1t was
the sense of the meeting that the pres
ent assignee either resign or be re-
moved. Those present were requested
to notify all their friends and acquaint-
ances who were depositors to assist
in the movement, and an adjournment
was taken to meet at the call of the
chairman. Otto SHERMAN announced
that 267 depositors had signed the list
at his store, and while there were only
700 present at the meeting and the
amount Of the deposits was only $12,-
co., the names he had represented three
or four times that sum.

LIGHT AND MERRY
Were the Measures of Yesterdays
Seibert Programme.

Sefbert Programme.
Repetition means perfection, and
with each succeeding Sunday afternoon
concert by Seiber7t's orchestra there Is
a marked Improvement. Yesterdays
concert at the Metropolitan opera
house was one of the best Of the sea-
SON, although the programme was not
as heavy as the one preceding 1t. But
on the whole, the public enjoys va
riety now and then. 1t is an odd thing
in connection with the concerts that
although the big majority Of the
listeners favor classical music, there
is always an air of great dtsappoint-
ment if the Opening March" is missed.
Yesterday this number was Herbert 8
American Girl a rollicking theme.
The regular orchestra selections were
rendered with more precision than dur
ing the first few concerts of the sea-
son, showing that each member Of the
orchestra is making an effort to elevate
the standard Of the organization. Will
liam G. NARROW, the cornet soloist,
made hit
Harry George, tenor soloist, possesses
a voice the quality of which has often
been enjoyed by lovers Of music in
this city. Mr.. George rendered a Sc
lection by Robaudi, Bright Star Of
Love" 1t perhaps did not strike the
popular fancy of the audience as we'll
as some other selection might have
- done owing to the slowness Of the
music, but Mr.. George certainly in
terpreted the piece excellently. Prof
Emil Onet directed the orchestra dur
ing the vocal numbers in his usual
graceful manner.
Sousa's lei Captain" the conclud-
ing number, was announced ON the
programme as being ''all the rage"
Perhaps it is in some parts of the coun-
try, but the opera will have to be
presented in it's entirety before it will
be fully appreciated locally.

FOX is AN ATHLETE.
Reader and Author Is Not Physf-
'S calIy Weak.


Each decade adds it's mite to ntera-
ture and art. New stars, of varying
degrees Of brightness, show above the
horizon; men and women with senses
attuned to catch and depict the truths
and beauty of life for the less observ-
ant or less thoughtful of mankind The
last decade of the century is no excep-
ton to the rule, and John Fox Jr. is
one Of the men who cannot only do this
upon paper but colloquially as well. A
G. o b e reporter called upon Mr.. Fox
in his rooms at the Aberdeen yester-
day and learned this fact for himself
The young author proved to be an ap-
proachable lion, and placed the news
paper lamb at once at his ease.
Have 1 any objection to being in
terviewed? oh, no; few of us have,
rights i'm such matters. Come in," said
Mr.. Fox, with natural Kentuckian
courtesy. What would you like to
know?"
Tell me something about your work,
Mr.. Fox. People are always so inter
ested to learn when and how new

there has never been a time when the
new writer has had such opportunities
for quick recognition as he has today.

created by the fact that in the state

Your representatives in the common coun-

the adoption of this ordinance, but before
final action we desire a fuller knowledge

there may be a wide diversity of opinion
among those affected. We desire the bene-

To this end a public meeting has been

MICEAELstILLE, November 3.-A super
abundance Of wet weather has kc('t our
farmers bac'. with their work This * asOn.
Whea, seeding has not been finished IA yet,
aud many of them have about become dis
courageu. But, why should they. Llur
fathers were compelled to sow the grain
broad cast and plow it under with the on
one horse pillow, aud that often so late in tn 2
season that they were obliged TO wait for the
hard-froZen ground to thaw sufficiently to
enable the horse to pillow enough TO cover the
grain, and taey raised as fine crops then as
we d o at present. The farmer should not
worry, but trust in Him who has promised
seed time and harvest to all.
Little Helen, bright and interesting
IL irteen yeai-old daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
James ". Malcolm. of Perryman, we are
happy 20 say, is recovering from an attack
oil typhoid fever, which severe that
for a while her life was despaired of.
The campaign has opened upon the Susque-
hanna flats, but there are but very few ducks
for us lowlanders 1t is as much we eau
do to see feather, let alone ii duck, on
ROmney creek, or Bush river or even the
lower bay. The published excuse at this
time, is that the mild weather has kept back
the royal cauvas-back and the but little infe-
rior red-head from grazing our vicinity with
their presence. Why, ten years ago they were
so plentiful, Messrs. Crist and Brother, who
owned Taylor's Island killed, in one day, the
twenty first day of October, 1897, no less than

Away with such frivolous excuses. The real
reason is that the fowls are hunted on the
flats and killed off 50 fast and thoroughly
that they are not able to hatch sufficiently to

is. Enforce the law, and when the real cauee
is removed the effect will be felt. jim SANK.
