MARRIED.-On Sunday afternoon. Mr..
j. r. Butler and Miss Katie Irelan were
married by Rev, D. j. Maddox. They
are youthful couple, but love burned
in their hearts strong enough to induce
them to place their barque on the sea
OF connubial bliss. The groom is son
OF Mr.. W. S. Butler, and is a most ex-
cellent young man. The bride lived at
Olive Springs in this county and is a
beautiful and charming young lady.
Our best wishes are rendered them.
No. Pauline, dear, every man who
runs newspaper is not newspaper
man." There are more misfts in the
calling than in any other vocation of
life. 1t takes the patience of Job, the
wisdom of Solomon, the meekness of
David, the bravery of Joshua, the cheek
OF an Atlanta drummer and collecting
ability of score of bailiffs to run a
newspaper successfully. Very few men
in the business possess all these re-
quirements,-Jackson Argus.

The death of Pascal J. Moran, one of
the editors of the Atlanta Constitution,

brilliant and versatile writer, hardly
having an equal in the state. He was
the father-in-law of Mr. Charley Dom
nelly, who is we'll known to our people.

BUFFALO BANK CLOSED.
CURRENCY-NO STATEMENT BY
THOSE IN AUTHORITY.

Buffalo June 30.-A notice posted on the
door of the City Bank to-day to the effect that
the bank is in the hands of the Controller of the
Currency. and that it will not open its doors
for business tomorrow morning. The bank off,
cials refused tonight to make a statement con-
cerning the failure. The members of the Board
of Directors profess ignorance of the causes that
led to the declaration of Controller Dawes, and
President Cornwell of the City Bank denied him
self to everybody.
The public has had no intimation of the banks
weakness and in financial and business circles
the opinion that the institution in a pros
porous financial condition was general. The
City Bank has a large number of depositors
owing to the fact that it the ixst COM
mercial bank in the city to offer interest to de-
positors on monthly balances. 1t catered to this
class Of customers. and did a large collection
business with east side establishments.
The directors the bank, while processing ig-
norance and surprise at Controller Dawess
der gave the information that the bank had
been carrying the paper of number of manu-
featuring and lumber companies for a long time.
These accounts objected to by the Federal
bank examiners several occasions, and are
still outstanding.
James G. Berry. assistant cashier of the
bank, who has been acting for John r. Boag, the
cashier. in the latter's absence owing to illness,
said tonight
THE appointment of a receiver for the City
Bank is great shock to me. 1 never suspected
that anything like this was coming From what
1 know of the banks business it is perfectly
solvent. In fact, its business has been on the
increase. In the last month or two there has
been an increase of nearly 81 100000 in deposits.

American concess'onares and contractors"

consider the Pennsylvanians to be in better
physical condition than any other American
crew who ever reached the of the Henley
races They are better fitted to bring about a
victory for the' American stroke than any other
lot of men l have seen here. Their broad blades
and style of stroke involve greater force and
shock 10 the muscles and system than the long
body swing and narrow blades of the British
but think they stand the strain and should
have fair clssnce with the Leanders, supposing
they meet them in the finals
The Pennss3lFanians also have the great ad-
vantage OF having rowed together. l believe. for
nearly four sears They have improved greatly
since they have been here. and perhaps instinct
