forget those "sweet sixteen" sisters, call

immense, and some of them individually,
while those who represented a lesser
part, made up their shortage in activity.
1t was great act. The Short Orchestra
added much, as usual, to the pleasure of
the evening. Everybody hopes that Mr..
Winlaw will start in on another play for
production in the near future. Such
plays are usually fully better acted and
are of more local interest than those of
travelling tsoupes, and the proceeds of
home talent go tor local benefits, that
of Tuesday evening being for the Degree
of Honor. The company also gave a
dress rehearsal on Monday evening and
admitted the kids at ten cents each and
had a pretty full house and an overjoyed
and enthusiastic audience.

Minnesota regiment, who is reported
with his brother as having arrived in San
Francisco on the transport Grant, has
had some very thrilling experiences in
Manila. He was shot through the Shout
der Aug. ID last, and later had to have
the wound opened on account of a splin-
ter of the bullet that had not been found.
Just before he was wounded he ruptured
himself jumping over ditch. This rup-
ture didn't bother him until the typhoid
fever came on. Then he was pulled
down so much that the doctors gave him
up, but on representations of his brother
about his good habits and the longevity
of the family, they made special effort
and pulled him through. Very weak

he rejoined his regiment, but was too
weak to be ofservice. Both the Wallace
boys are sons of ]. D. Wallace of Drav-

In the United States court action has
been brought by the United States
against the Northern Pacific Railway Co.
to enjoin the latter from filling in its
tracks at Grand Forks. 1t is held that
the dit that the Northern Pacific is put
ting on its roadbed weighs down heavily
on yellow clay soil, which in turn rests
on deeper blue clay. The latter has a
hard surface over which the yellow clay
slides into the river. In the center of the
stream, where there is little resistance,
the earth bulges up and is rapidly form
ing an island. The Red at that point is
regarded as navigable stream, hence
the interest taken by the government Off
Gals. If the government wins the rail-
road company will be compelled, not
only to stop its filling in, but remove
what has arisen in the stream.

TWO PREACHERS DEAD
CHARLES S. ROBINSON, A PREsBY-
TERRAIN DIVINE AND WRITER,
And Rev. G. II. Simons, Methodist,
Who Predicted His own Death
End of the 'Bogie Man,

NEW YORK, Feb 1.-The Rev. Charles
Seymour Robinson died at his home in this
city this morning. He had been seriously
i'll for some weeks.
DR.. Robinson was a Presbyterian divine,
well known as writer of hymns and. books.
For some years he had not been connected
with any pastorate. He was born at
Bennington, VT, March 81, 1929. His first
pastorate was at the Park Presbyterian
Church at Troy. In 1868, owing to the i'll
health of his wife DR.. Robinson decided to
go abroad and was invited to the American
Chapel at Paris He established there a
church where there had been only preach
ing station but at the end of two years the
war between France and Germany drove
many Americans away from Paris and the
church was discontinued. In 1871 Dr. Rob-
inson received call to the Memorial Pres
byterian Church in New York, and this con-
gregation soon afterwards erected the Mad
ison-avenue Presbyterian Church. Dr.. Rob-
inson resigned the pastOrate in 1887 and
had not since been regularly connected with
any church. Among his best-llnown hymn
books are Songs for the Sanctuary and
Songs of the Church.

resentative Van Voorhis of Ohio, in behalf
of the committee on banking and currency.
AS to the provision allowing banks to issue
circulation up to par value of bonds de-
posted instead of 80 per cent. of the bonds,
as at present, the report states that the
change would add to the circulation $23,644
5S4. The report urges that if this bill be-
comes law there will be an increase in
the amount of circulation issued when the
demands of business require it, and thus a
distinct benefit will come to both the banks
and to the community without in the slight
est degree endangering noteholders. Con-
corning the provision placing the bank tax
on capital surplus and undivided profits, in
stead of on circulation, as at present. the
report says the tax on capital will yield ST.
408,953, as against 81 Ill ,2S9 on circulation.
The advantages of having national banks
established in small towns as provided in
the bill, are also set forth.
Rufus Williams has been appointed post
master at Luray, Henry county, Indiana,
vice William r. Shaw, resigned.
A new postoffice has been established at

ter Welchhance as postmaster.
