BANK GOES UNDER.
Haywood County Bank at Browns.
vile Closes its Doors.

i N@~~~ ~~NNT~N ~~~ =
BRowNsvILLE, Oct. 5.-The Hay
wood County Bank, of this place,
made an assignment this morning
for the benefit of creditors. The
liabilities are not given, and no
schedule of creditors filed as record.
The consenus of opinion is that
they are heavy, this being based
upon the statements of various and
sundry parties who were caught
for good amounts. In several in
stances, it is understood, deposit
tors with as much or more than
thousand dollars were preparing to
withdraw deposits to-day to meet
their personal loans, etc. In other
instances those who had faith in
the bank were depositing goodly
sums of money as late as the bank
was open last afternoon.
The instrument of assignment
was not filed until late, and the
condition OF things in and about
the bank building we're the subject
of much discussion. No sign ap-
peared on the door and some at
tributed the trouble to an inspec-
tion of the books by a Federal
bankruptcy official in view of some
trouble and controversy some of the
officers have been having in the
Federal Court at Memphis about
availing themselves of the bank
ruptcy act, and the strenuously an
tagonistic position some Of their
old creditors took against this ap-
plication. That idea was errone.
GUS.
The bank was established in 1889
and the authorized capital has been
announced at $4,000.
The officers were: p. B. Ander-
son, President; r. II. Anderson,
Cashier, and d. S. Anderson, As
sistant Cashier. These gentlemen
were formerly members of the old
Anderson Bros. Hardware Com
pany, whose assignment some years
ago is well remembered in CONNER
cial circles of this section. The
bank at that time, after various
negotiations, continued on its way,
though for some time it has had
the distinction of having its bank
ing house under mortage.
1t is the prevailing opinion here
that the assets and distribution
will not amount TO much.
On last Monday, after the bank
had closed Saturday, Circuit Court
convened at Brownsville. and Judge
Bonds charge to the grand jury
mentioned the statute that made IL
a felony for any bank President or
Cashier to be guilty of accepting
deposits when the Insolvency Of the
bank was known. This last charge
was Of special interest to the pub
| lie. as it had been whispered about
in connection with the heavy fall
ure OF the Haywood County Bank
Saturday that deposits had been
accepted by the bank up to the day
! of closing its doors.

GUNS FOR OLD GLORY.
The First Foreign Salute Given to
the American Fling.

The little Ranger ran slowly between
the frowning French frigates, looking
as warIike as they. Her men swarmed
like bees into the rigging. and her col
ors ran up TO salute the flag of his most
Christian majesty of France. and she
fired one by one her salute of 13 guns.
says Sarah Orne Jewett in The Allan
tic.
There was n moment of suspense.
The wind was very light now. The
powder smoke drifted away, and the
tapping sails sounded loud overhead.
Would the admiral answer back or
would he treat this bold challenge like
a handkerchief waved ut him from n
pleasure boat? Some of the officers on
the Ranger looked incrcdulOus, but
Paul Jones still held his letter in his
hand. There was puff of white
smoke. and the great guns of the
French flagship began to shake the air

eight, nine-and then were still save
for their echoes from the low hills

king of France TO our republic and the
first high honor TO our flag" said the
captain proudly TO his steersman, but
they were all huzzaing now along the
Rangers decks, that little ship whose
name shall never be forgotten while
her country lives.
The captain lifted his hat and stood
looking up at the flag.
I'VE hardly know what this day
means, gentlemen" he said soberly to
his officers, who came about him. II

greatest nation that was ever born into

To Ascertain and PrOmuIgnte II Is -
Costly Task.

What time is it," Few questions
are more common than this, and yet
each day the United States government
goes to a great expense in giving it an
official answer. To ascertain the in
slant when it is noon on the seventy
fifth meridian and to send that infor-
nation all over the country is n great
and a costly task. The astronomical
observatory in Washington computes
the true time, which is thence trans
mitted by electricity to every important
city and town.
About five minutes before the Wash
ington noon the telegraph companies
cut off all their regular business except
on lines where they have more than
one wire. They then connect all i'm
portant points, from which there may
he numberless ramifications, with an
electric wire going into the great clock
In the observatory so that all over the
country its tickings may be heard. For
the ten seconds just before II o'clock
there is silence. which is broken by the
moon beat" Regular business is then
resumed.
In some cities the wires connect with
a time ball which drops with the noon
beat. The time ball I'm Washington
over the state, war and navy depart
ment building is three feet in diameter
and can be seen from all parts of the
city. Crowds frequently gather about
to see it fall. distance of 81 feet, high
in the air. The man whom some of the
spectators suppose to be dropping the
ball is merely there to hoist it again to
its place.
In the building beneath are 23 clocks
which are each day automatically cor
rected by it. An electrical device sets
them, placing hour. minute and second
hands exactly vertical at the instant
the ball drops. The hands that are too
fast are pushed back, and those that
are slow are thrust forward.
Although Washington is on the sew
enty-seventh meridian, the noon hour
Is for convenience computed for the
seventy-fifth, the time standard for the
eastern part of the United States. In
the central belt. which is governed by
the ninetieth meridian. the signal from
Washington means IL o'clock, in the
Rocky mountain belt it is 10 o'clock,
and on the Pacific coast line it is o.
