"Our firm has about twenty clients who
have claims against the bank aggregating
$4,000. They are all non-residents, and have
instructed us to take such measures we
deem best, and our judgment is that we can
best serve them by having the affairs of the
bank wound up as speedily as possible by
the receivers. That will give a 10 per cent
dividend Immediately and ultimately will
yield at least 40 per cent, and possibly as
high as 60 per cent of the claims.
I'm case of a reorganization the matter
will drag along several years, with no tan
gible guarantee of anything. 1t would be
good thing for St. Paul, possibly, if the bank
could be reopened and our firm, which is a
creditor to the amount Of $1,000. would not
personally throw any stumbling blocks in
the way Of the plan. The creditors opposed
to the reopening are not taking any concerted
or combined action, but 1 understand that
others besides our clients will be represented
in court Saturday.
The plan for the reorganization pro-
vides that a certain percentage of the
Indebtedness be converted into stock
in the new company.

man.
DOC" brought forth pint of the sparkling

I'm a few shy On coin, but here's some
of the real stuff" and handful of golden
nuggets were displayed by the unknown.
Here, take this one; it's worth three or four

was good, and I've sort 'er taken liking

some kind of acid was used to test gold
Maybe lemon juice would do. He squeezed
the juice of a couple OF his largest lemons

SALOONS NEAR ALLEYS,
Good Tcmplars Ask That They BE
Abolished.

Abolished.
Tie excise board this morning received
a series of resolutions adopted at a recent
Independent Order Of Good Templars, based
upon statements in an article published
in The Evening Star of October 1, headed
Criminal Records and signed "S." 1t is
stated in the preamble that in naming the
causes which combine to produce that
criminal record the writer Of the article
declares that 1.-The illiterate negro, living
among the fields, becomes the peaceful,
quiet citizen and patient toiler, but trans
plant him to the city, with his mind I'M
tutored and his intellect impoverished to
be driven by his social condition to the
cheapest tenements of courts and alleys,
he finds companionship with immoral
women and joy in bucket Of beer"
After further quotations from the article
relating to arrests for disorderly conduct,
the presence of saloons in the vicinity of
the courts and alleys and the sale of beer
in buckets, the resolutions declare THAT
we, as Good Templars, invite the atten-
ton of the excise board of the District of
Columbia to this subject, and earnestly
request and demand that they, in the in
terest5 OF good government and the general
welfare, and In the exercise Of the discre-
tioEary power given them by the law, shall
refuse to grant further licenses or renew
such to sell intoxicating liquors to places
located near such courts and alleys as are
inhabited by the untutored and mentally
Impoverished, or by the immoral and GRIM
mai classes, and to all persons who are
shown to have carried on the bucket
or GROWER trade with the residents of
such places"

Diphtheria In Mt. Pleasant.

To the Editor Of The Evening Star:
Allow one of your readers, who is well
informed, to refute several Of the state
ments in your last evenings issue, under
the startling head lines, Fears that diph-
iberia may become epidemic in Mt. Pleas
ant" Your correspondent learned of the
Calm case Immediately it was known. and
directly from a report spread in the john
son School, at the beginning of the disease.
Mrs. Calm having sent such report to the
school as the reason for keeping her chill
dren at home.
Anti-toxine was at once administered
ard at no stage Of the childs ailment was
he really sick, and go isolated was he, tina.
no other member of the family took the
disease and the patient has entirely re-
covered.
The Rose case is very recent, and the
child is not understood to be very seriously
Ill.
All the cases mentioned are widely scat
tered, In fact In an area of twenty blocks
but all the children went to the Johnson
School, and in the opinion of the writer.
every case emanated from that institution
as it is well known that there is no sewer
age connected with the building, and the
children drink water from a hydrant oh
the premises, no doubt contaminated in
some way by the drainage from the school
building. Any casual reader Of the article
in last nights Star would infer that Mt
Pleasant, Columbia Heights and Holmead
Manor, localities heretofore spoken of as
the most healthful in or about our fair city
and suburbs, were no longer the usual
boasted-of and noted residential sections
where even the common ills that man is
heir to were heretofore unknown but II a
crusade by the health authorities was made
to the johnson School, and a careful inves-
tigation made of the premises and an
analysis made Of the water drank by the
children, 1t Is reasonably certain the source
of the trouble would be discovered to be en-
tirely local.
1t is earnestly to be hoped that sewer
facilities shall be furnished at the earliest
possible date, and other sanitary precau-
tons taken at once. L. H M.
