Ia the Ceylon LostP

"The Ceylon has either gone on
beach somewhere or else has been sent
down to her last port in Davey Jones
locker" This is the general belief along
the waterfront today as to the fate OF
the long overdue bark Ceylon from
Laysan Island. 1t is now rs days since
the bark left Honolulu on her voyage
to Laysan Island and return. Thls
voyage should not have required more
than 80 days, and it is generally con-
ceded now that the vessel is pau.
The Ceylon is one of the Oldest YES
sells in the Honolulu trade. She was
built in Maine, and for years was used
in transporting oil and bone from the
whaling fleet in Honolulu to Boston.
Captain Henry Calhoun, who was her
master for many years, used to say
that she soaked up so much oil on those
voyages that her timbers would last
forever She brought many people to
the islands in the early days.

Chicago, Feb. ia new cause
of railroad wrecks has been discov-
cred in the monster locomotives
that are now being used SO extern
sively by all railroads. While be-
ing hauled from the places of build
ing to the roads for which they are
intended it has been ascertained
that the giant engines have been
playing havoc with the tracks OF
the lines over which they have
passed. Reports have been receiv-
ed showing where the unconnected
drivers of fthe monsters have ponnd-
ed rails SO hard that the latter have
been broken and others have been
so badly injured that they have
snapped under pressure of follow
ing trains.
| Superintendents, roadmasters,
and others who have reported on
the matter are of the opinion that
not few of the recent wrecks that
have been attributed to defective
track may now be traced to broken
or injured rails resulting from the
transportation Of, these engines in
an unfinished state. The trouble
has become so serious that an order
was issued by the Rock Island Road
today requiring all dead" locomo-
tives received for transportation to
be equipped with side rods in posi-.
tion and coupled.

The contractors and builders of the
city from whom these figures were OBJ
tanned We're asked to give, briefly, their
views concerning the building outlook
for the coming season. Some failed to
comply with the request or thought 1t
too early to give an opinion.
Contractor Fred l.. Nissen, who has
built many fine homes for the people
of Marshalitown, thinks there will be
less building in 1902 than in the previ-
GUS year. I'm my opinion" said he
there will be fewer buildings con-
structed during the coming year, but
If the public buildings at present con-
templated all materialize the actual
value of Improvements for the city will
be equalled If not excelled. l think
there will be not so many cottages and
small houses put up, the demand for
that class of dwellings having been
pretty well supplied. 1t is somewhat
early yet to tell what will develop in
the building line. / already have some
work under way, more in sight and I
have no doubt that shall have all that
1 can attend to turnout the season. I
am much interested in the proposed
new brick plant and hope that 1t will
be put into operation. 1t ought to be
paying business. If it is constructed
and operated on the plans which have
been decided on. the brick VIII be of
the finest quality in the state, such as
will be accepted in government work.
The system which 1t is proposed to use
is the same used in the famous brick
kilns in Holland and Germany, said to
be the most economical and producing
the most perfect product in the world.
We have two coed brick yards here, but
they can not meet all the demands and
there is room for more. good many
PEOPLE are waiting to see what will de-
yelop in the new factory district and If
they are successful there will be more
or less doing in that part of town /
should like to see the town. more com
pactly built and with more substantial
buildings. Too many small buildings
will be against us in the future. A good
many people are building around the
outskirts of town to escape high taxes.
The result is higher taxes in the BUSH
ness and better residence portion,
which prevents building of the better
class of business, and dwelling houses
IN the heart of the city. But it is the
De encouraged.

BANKS AS BooKkEEPERs.
Tired of Handling Small Check Ac-
counts For Nothing.

counts For Nothing.
Minneapolis Journal.l
Minneapolis bankers say that the
general tendency is toward a more
rigid application of rules governing the
minimum limit of check accounts.
Banks are discriminating more and
more in accepting deposits for open ac-
count. Money is reasonably plentiful
and many of the small depositors are
being referred to the savings banks or
the smaller institutions which pay spe-
cial attention to the small accounts.
The minimum balance which the
small depositor is expected to carry
varies with different banks. The gen
eral rule is not strictly adhered to. Its
application depends much upon the de-
position. The banks simply do not de-
sire to handle any amount in which
there is not small profit. The day
when any of the banks will accept a
| deposit of few hundred dollars to be
checked out again in thirty days for
meat, groceries and other details is
past. There is no profit in such ac-
counts and the banker insists that he
should not be expected to do all of the
bookkeeping and other work in connec-
ton with such accounts without real
| izing some profit,
The balance which the average de-
postor Is required to keep in the prin-
cipal banks of the city varies from
500 to $3.50. The man who wants to
deposit $50 either deposits a portion in
the savings banks and carries the rest
in his pocket or places it In one of the
smaller banks which make a small
charge for the accommodation. An off,
cial of one of the larger banks says:
NO one rule on deposits can be APP
piled to all depositors. The small ac-
count of one man may be worth more to
the bank than the account of another
who deposits on the start five times as
much. In taking on new accounts the
banks are discriminating more than
ever. II depositcr Is a stranger, his
account will be accepted on the condi-
ton that the balance does not go below
5000 or $3.50 as the case may be. II he
has but $50 or SIS to deposit. we do not
figure that the small profit on his ac-
count will pay for the expense of hand
ling it. He Is just as well off without
bank account Many of th<se people
go to the savings banks III they do not
desire to carry the money in their
pockets. There are cases where we
know the parties where we accept COM
paratively small deposits. But these
are Industrious people whose accounts
we feel will increase, and In the nand-
ling of which there will in the future be
some profit. For instance. we accepted
the account of butcher the other day
who deposited 500. We also refused IA
$4,000 deposit from another man. The
butchers account will fluctuate little,
while the $4,000 account would have
been rather uncertain as to size, and
might have caused lis much trouble in
keeping track of it. But many small
depositors who want to open an ac-
count mainly for their own convenience
in paying bills must look to smaller
banks ar carry their money in their
pockets.

CAN CONTROL ELECTRIC LIGHT.
Indianapolis Man Is Able to Regulate
the Brilliancv

indianapolis. Feb. 19.-E. E. Rines
an Indianapolis electrician, has In
vented an incandescent bulb by which
the degree of illumination may be va
ried. He has been working on it for
years and has just completed a lamp
that is a success.
His invention is especially designed
for dwellings,, hotels and hospitals. He
has taken an ordinary sixteen candle
power globe and arranged it so that 1t
may be turned to use eight, four or two
candle power. This is done by using
connections that are different from the
old style, and two filaments.
BY turning the globe a little the light
may be reduced from sixteen to eight
candle power. Another turn reduces it
to four, still farther to two Rines
