WAS NO CRIMINAL INTENT.
Request of His BOndsmen,
Pending investigation.

Springfield, VT, Nov. 20.-The Ma
tional Bank of Springfield was doing
business as usual to-day, apparently
having suffered in no way from the
$4,000 shortage in its funds alleged
to have been suffered through a trans
action of its cashier, G.. l.. Closson.
The cashier was at the bank as usual,
and it is understood that on accoun
of his long period of service as well as
by request of his bondsmen who ave
made good his loss, he will be re-
tanned pending an investigation.
So far as developments up to noon
to-day indicated, there was little dis
position to attribute criminal intent
to the aged cashier. The loan given
by Mr.. Closson to his son., of the
failed brokerage firm of Knott q
Closson, was secured by a deed OF
real estate considered good by the
bank examiner, who knew of the
transaction.

HER KNOWLEDGE OF CHINESE.
She Knew the Shape of the HER.
oElyphs and Surprised
Her Friends.

A young woman at a watering place this
summer made a reputation as a profound
~linguist in a rather odd manner. She
called one day at a Chinese laundry, where
she had left a shirt waist, but it could
not be found, as there was no entry IN
the book of hierogiyphics corresponding to
her pink slip. After a half hours search
the Chinaman found the entry. A mistake
had been made, the entry crossed out and
a new set OF ~hieroglyphics in tiny, charae-
tiers placed below. She was told that that
waist would be laundered Immediately, and
she could have it the next day, says the
Kansas City World.
The next day the young woman called
for it, accompanied by three other young
women. At the seashore the excitement OF
a visit to the Chinese laundry is not to be
| despised. The Chinaman to whom the PINK
slip was presented was not the laundryman
of the day before, and he experienced the
same difficulty in finding the Identifying
characters, finally saying: Not in book,
The girl answered, calmly: 81 can find IT,,
and the Chinaman allowed her to take the
book. Turning the leaves until she came
to the one that had had an entry crossed
/ out, with another in tiny characters under
it, she handed it to the Chinaman. "lhers
it is" and. to his surprise, he found It:
"You only lady l know spik Chinese" he
said. And the other girls looked upon hei
with admiration.
