day that the great bulk of Mr.. Brice'S

Mr.. Stout here said he was much
disappointed at Jones' attitude toward
his son. VINO was "a mere kid' and
not OF the sweetest disposition Stout
told Jones of his disappointment and
said he felt it especially in the light of
ali witness had done for Jones' He
said he took him when d lad of Is and
stood over him for days and weeks
with pen in hand. training him how
TO do the business. Jones made no re-
ply then, and Stout felt the situation
50 keenly that he thought it was time
for Jones and he to part, and he gave
Jones notice then that in January next,
six months hence, he had better leave;
that after that time he would have no
more use for him in the bank. Jones
made no reply.
Some of the directors told me-" said
Mr.. Stout, that I ought not to allow
the clerks to overdraw their salaries
Mr.. Brown-What directors? Name
them. We don't want their identity
covered up with that slush.

DIDN'T LIKE MRS. JONES.

What did he say?'
He told me l was too lenient in al
lowing the clerks to oVerdraw their
salaries and that ! should not have
permitted it. l spoke to Jones about
his account and told him he
ought to live within his means, but
that ! didn't blame him as much as
did his wife, who was very extrava-
CANT, and / told him so. L couldn't
stand to see her coming into the bank
every day in a different colored silk
dress. L remembered that Jones father
in-law got into the bank for $4,000. 1
offered to so and see Mrs Jones about
it myself if he wouldn't. He said he
would talk to her about it, but he kept
putting it off from day to day and
never did anything about it. Then the
bank examiner stepped into the bank
they come unannounced-and Jones
and his wife took possession of tie eX-
aminer. Mr.. Wightman. and enter
tanned him at the lake and other ways
The witness then went on to state
that soon afterward he got a letter
from the comptroller at Washington,
most uncomplimentary to Mr.. Stout in
its terms. 1t stated that he was not
attending to business that he was too
lax in his ways, and suggested that it
would be for the good of the institution
if he would resign. Stoutt said he was
ready to resign at a minutes notice,
but owing to matters connected with
the reduction of the banks capital he
did not resign for some time.
"HELLdSH DESIGN
The witness then said that he told
Jones that he (Jones) had been sue
cessful in his hellish design to get
Stout out of the bank and to establish
himself in the good graces of the direct
ors. He also told Jones that he would
tell the directors, and he did tell them,
how Jones was born a bastard, that his
father was a drunkard for twenty-five
years, that they lived in abject poverty,
and his mother, poor old soul support
ed them as best she could for twenty
years by washing, While his father
drank himself to death. He said he
also told Jones that he was greatly
afflicted with the big head and that it
would do him good to be taken down.
THREATENED TO SHOOT.
To all this the witness said Jones
replied that il he (Stoutt) told the di-
rectors what he said, he (Jones) would
shoot him as sure as his name is

A Science Worth Cultivating

'rhe regents Of the University Of

the president to employ an instructor

toward the establishment of a school
of that kind. He is permitted to of

the pupils, who seem to be mostly
married women, assemble, and pay

to cover the cost Of the articles of

science in that way is not without
difficulty because OF the variety OF
tastes and customs and prejudices
which have to be consulted, yet the
work done IS useful and Will yield
good results in time.
