The wartime months went dragging
by, and the burden of gloom in the air
seemed to lift; for when the Chicago
Tribune was read each evening in the
post office, it told of victories on land
and sea. Yet it was joy not untinged'

from our house funerals had been held
for farmer boys who had died in prison
pens and been buried in Georgia
trenches. One youth there was I re-

was with him. He was very gay and full
of jokes. ms
One night the postmaster was reading.
aloud the names of the killed at Gettys-
burg, and he ran right on to the name
Of this boy. The boys father sat there
on nail lseg, chewing a straw. The
postmaster tried to shuttle over the
name and on to the next.

ing at the last meeting was that all
collections beyond the appropriations
made at that time We're to go to the
Committee on Evening Entertainment
TOR fireworks, if the committee succeed
ed in collecting $500. If his under
standing was correct, that money must
be set aside first.
George Clark, for the Finance Com
mittee, said he had not had a report
yet from the subcommittee that is
canvassing the shops, but the commit
tee can guarantee 81, 900, and no more.
Mr.. Turner said that would make
S:'6S besides the other appropriations.
If the committee was going to have
fireworks, that should be turned over
and the committee could try to get the
rest of the $500
Secretary Howe said there would be
500 that was appropriated for hacks,
which would not be needed. He moved
that it be added to the $36S and that
S433 be appropriated for fireworks,
which was done with the understand
ing that what was raised in the shops
should go towards making the $500.
Judge Hinkson said that he would
not give a cent for a man who was not
patriotic enough to walk IN a process
sion at this time, and he thought every
one would be willing to do so.
Mr.. Turner said that he understood
the fireworks would be set off in Cap
itol Park, Secretary of. State Brown
having consented as there Will be no
set pieces
The meeting then adjourned till next

A BUILDING and LOAN CASE.
ACTION OF THE UNIONS DIREC-
TORS CONTESTED.
The Effort to Recover Securities
Said to Have Been Ille-
gally Pledged.

| Judge Buckles of Solano presided in
Judge Johnson's Court yesterday at
the hearing Of arguments on the de-
murrer to the complaint in the case of
! L. WI O'Nell, receiver for the Union
| Building and Loan Association against
a large number of the stockholders to
recover the sums of money paid out in
! liquidation of the sixth series of ma
tured stock.
! In order to make these payments the
| directors of the association borrowed
some S.0,000 giving as collateral there
for certain notes, mortgages, etc. This,
| 1T is claimed by the receiver, the di
| rectors had no legal authority to do.
and he now seeks to recover the Sc
curites alleged to have been illegally
| hypothecated.
The legal fraternity was quite largely
| represented For the receiver were
Lawyers Grove L. Johnson and James
b. Devine; w. H. Devlin appeared for
the Farmers and Mechanics Bank;
/ Clinton l.. White for the National Bank
of D. 0. Mills & Co. and various stock
holders and other interests were guard
ed by w. A. Gett, Hinkson & Elliott
c. w. Baker and A. L. Shnn
All the questions at issue in the
Union Associations trouble are in
| involved in the present hearing. and
as the action is a very important and
| far-reaching one the arguments may
consume several days Grove l.. John
son spoke for several hours yesterday
and when the court adjourned Clinton
l.. White had the floor. The main
contention of Mr.. Johnson was that
! the scope of the association is limited
to certain lines of procedure, and that
| there is no law authorizing the di-
rectors to so outside the business of
| the association and borrow money to
be paid to stockholders in premiums
on their stock. Their action being IL
legal, he held that it should be an
nuulled by the court, and that the as
ISOLATION recover the securities that
were unlawfully pledged
