BLOOMINGDALE, Ind, Aug. &C. o.
Newlin q Co., dry goods merchants, have
arranged to open a banking outfit in con-
nection with their store. As there is no

Weaver brothers, junior members of the
firm, will have charge of the banking inter-
ests. For the present this enterprise viii
be considered a branch of the Harrison
bank at Marshall, Ind. If the undertaking

lar bank here in the near future.

START ANOTHER BANK.
Pleasant Advice to His
Washington County Victims.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, Ind, Aug. 9.-Pleasant
the absconding Elnora banker,
has been heard from. A letter from him
has been received by Attorney Sears, of
Elnora, but his whereabouts cannot be told
from this letter. because it was mailed on
a train going into Chicago. Durham sug-
gests that the people he robbed organize a
bank and subscribe stock to the amount of
their deposits. He says he knows Elnora
needs a bank and suggests that there was
never a better time to get one than now.
Durham declares that his wife knew Moth
ing Of the trouble he has got into, and asks
that she be not drawn into it. Durham
probably got little money out of the bank.
He seems TO have paid Frederick Kings
land. who operated with him in a degree,
5000 for the bank fixtures, and this came
out of the deposits.

In any man, be he American, German,

this, and the facility with which his
humor has taken" after incubation
shows his klnshlp with his fellow men.
Mark Twain is not only a humorist,
but a philosopher, He does not hest
tate to take a whack at his own coun-
trymen, as, for example, when he said.
How unselAshly England has wrought
for the open door for all And how
plously America has wrought for that
open door-ln all cases where it was
not her own"
As the humorist has advanced In
years the motive Of his humor has be-
come more obvious than formerly, and
his desire to render real service to hui
manlty more strong; hence his unspar-
ing efforts in behalf Of civic publication
and his sacrifice of personal comfort
for the uplifting Of his fellow citizens.
But he is the same old Mark Twain as
of yOre, only u little more pronounced
on the earnest serious side than for
merly, and still sticks to his famous
aphorism, "When in doubt tell the
truth" TRUMAN l.. ELTON.
