The crimson fragments of shattered

A deep. late rose, that knew not June's

OF dripping dews and sweet, moist, kiss

But rent, with dusk red fires, its messy

And famed in beating sunshine on the

Drifting into the yesterdays dim sweet

II ind to submit to arrest when his wife
stepped forward and said: THE five min

throwing stones at the officers and pouring

ment Weaver escaped to the woods. His

Failure of Il South Baltimore Bank,
with Liabilities of $4,000.

BALTIMORE, Feb. 24.-Judge Sharp to-
day appointed Simon p. Schott receiver for
the Bank of South Baltimore, on Light
street, near Hughes. The assets are esti-
mated at $4,000 and the liabilities at $l70,-
600. The bond is for $500, 600. There is a
cash shortage of $4, 200 and an obvious deficit
of $9,762SS, produced by a shrinkage Of
values. The larger portion of the deposits
amounting to some $4,000. are by poor per-
sons. The inst tu.ion was originally incor-
porated as the South Baltimore Permanent
Loan and Savings Association. In 1883 the
General Assembly passed an act giving the
institution banking privileges. It's capital
stock was placed at 100000, divided into
shares of $25 each. 1t had an authorized
capital stock of s25OOOO AS matter of
fact but Lao shares of the stock was paid

essary TO meet the demand for subsidiary
coin and for the retirement of such an
amount OF sherman notes as now repre-
sents the bullion which might be SO used.
The vote on the Wastage bill was unani-
