Ltmoile county has every reason
to be proud of her three financial in.
stitutions. They rank among the SAT-
est, strongest and best of the state.
For forty. seven years the Lamoille
County National Bank, with it's pre-
decessor, the Lamoille County Bank,
has supplied the financial necessities
of LamOille county in a way that en-
titles it to rank as a public bene-
factor. Through evil report and
good, through panics and financial
stringencies and disturbances, it has
never failed to come to the rescue of
those who might otherwise have
been financially embarrassed.
The two savings banks, one started
in 'S9, the other in 81, have pros
pered even beyo the tondest dreams
and expectations of their promoters,
from the day OF their organic ttion;
and, whereas, thirteen years ago the
entire banking capital of Lamoille
county WIS only 100000, it is now
about 81 100000.
The management of these three
banks is in the hands OF men who
have the entire confidence of the pub
lie, and so long as this condition
continues, these institutions will con-
stitute a factor in the growth and
prosperity of our county that can
hardly be over.estimated.
The Lamoille County Savings Bank
and Trust Co. has deposits OF $685.
l53 81, the Union Savings Bank and
Trust Co. of $47S, ,134 55. The La
noble County Savings Bank and
Trust Co. has a surplus of $50 900,
the Union Savings Bank and Trust
Co. of $3O,1 81. Each of these
two banks has a capital of $4,000,
and the d ference in their deposits is
owing to the fact that the Hyde Park
Savings Bank started about two
years earlier than it's Morrisville
neighbor. Both are growing and
both have the best wishes of every
business interest in our county.

Pair of Trousers

Pants are made for men, not for women.
Women are made for men and not for pants.
When a man pants for woman and a
woman pants for a man they are a pair of
pants Such pants don't last Pants are
like moasses, they are thinner in hot
weather and thicker in cold. Men are often
mistaken in pants; such mistakes are
breeches of promise. There has been much
discussion whether pants is singular or
plural Seems to us when men wear pants it
is plural. and when they don't wear any
pants it is singular. Men go on tear in
their pants and it is all right; when the pants
go on a tear it is all wrong. II you want to
make pants last make the coat and vest first

More Improvements at the "wrong End"

H. Waite & Son have decided to in
crease their store-room to accommO-
date the grocery needs of the business
and will at once commence the work
of remodeling their store, making
the two ground Fl Jors into one. The
north store, lately occupied by the
Wilson & Waite Stove Co., will be
useG-ioF a shoe department and a
complete line of this class of goods
will be carried. part of this room
will be used for an office, thus giving
more room for the grocery depart
ment.
From a modest beginning Mr..
Waite has worked this business up
until to-day the firm enjoys one of the
largest Wholesale and retail trades of
any grocery firm in this part of the
state. The carpenter work is in
charge of c. A. Spiler, which insures
tirst-class job. The stock of stoves
has been moved to the Wilson fur
niture store, where this business will
be continued.

BOERS VISIT SOME BIG STORES.
TAKE BIRDsEYE VIEW OF THE CITY
FROM HIGH TOWER

AS guests Of the Merchants Association. party
of the liberated Boer prisoners visited two large
mercantile establishments yesterday. The visitors
seemed much impressed by what they saw. Thomas
Brain. former Secretary Of State for the Orange
Free State who Of the party. while the
visitors looking at a variety OF fabrics, with
attractive patterns and prices which seemed a
revelation to them. asked the question:
Why don't we see more of these goods IN South
Africa? There is certainly nothing like 1t in this
line imported to our country All we see down
there are English and German dress fabrics"
The manager of the house in which the goods
were displayed replied that UP 10 the present time
American manufacturers had been far too busy
supplying the home markets to branch out and
seek markets abroad When he added that the
time had when the magnitude of America S
productive power had made II necessary to make a
bid for foreign commerce in various lines, he was
assured that what the visitors had In the line
Of dress goods was just what the people of South
Africa needed.
The party was made up OF Mr.. Brain. General J..
Vessels. General a. Cronje Commandant F. Steyn.
ex-State Attorney J. dc Williers. Commandant q.
Swart. Adjutant d. Van Veiden. Commandant
Davel and j. Pensloo. Later A. A. ]. c. Dieperink.
who was a member of the Transvaal Parliament.
Joined the party.
The party was conducted from the Union
Square Hotel by II. d. Lockwood. a member Of a
committee appointed by the Merchants Association
to entertain the returning Beers. They reached the
office OF the Merchants Association at II a. m.
where they were welcomed by S. c. Mead. another
member OF the committee After the visit to the
stores the party returned to the offices of the
Merchants Association. They were entertained at
an informal luncheon at the Merchants Club.
where they were introduced TO the other members
OF the committee, d. lie Roy Dresser. William F.
King. John c. Eames. George l.. Duval. John c.
Juhring. Frank Squier. W. II. Douglas and w. G..
Smyth.
After the luncheon former State Attorney do
Williers said: "On behalf of myself and the other
members of the party l wish to express sincere
thanks for your kindness toward us to-day, and
the splendid and interesting entertainment you
have given us. All the kindness we have expert
enced while in this city has amply convinced us
that you friends. and what we have
here in your great city has filed us with re-
gret that cannot stay longer and more.
After what have seen to-day think we are all
convinced that more extensive business relations
with this country and the Introduction of American
enterprise would be TO the advantage and benefit or
South Africa"
After the luncheon the Boer visitors ascended 10
the tower of the New-York Life Building, from
which splendid view of the city was had. Then
the members of the committee pointed out to the
visitors the various points of interest.

INEQUALITY IN ASSESSMENTS.
MR. CIRCUIT FINDS MANY PARCELS VALUED
FAR BELOW MARKET PRICE.

controller Grout yesterday made somewhat
sensational statement regarding the assessment
OF property in this city. He said that great
zeal OF the property was passed at about so
per cent OF its value. while other property was
assessed at more than it's value The statement
made by the Controller is in part as follows:
Since the first of January last the appraisers
Ior the city nave had occasion to examine some
lZ0 parcels in Brooklyn. Manhattan and The
Bronx. Tor contemplated purchase by the CITY
In each case the assessment valuation was de-
IneSe parcels are very widely scattered through
out these three bOrOughS, and cover Improved
and unimproved property. They probably show
a pretty fair average of the relation of the as
sesSed value TO real values, and the result I
think, Will be something of a surprise In
brooklyn nfty-nine parcels were examined and
the aggregate assessed values Of these fifty-niue
parcels were found TO be only 444-100 per cent
OF the real or market value. In Manhattan and
The Bronx stxty-six parcels were examined and
the aggregate assessed values were found to be
only 4446 per cent Of the real or market vaIue
FOR many reasons do not care TO give the
details which make up these aggregates of as
sessed and real values, but among these varf-
Gus parcels there are to be found parcels whose
assessed value is One-third OF one-quarter OF
their real value, while in many other cases
which any one familiar with real estate in the
city Will be able to recall in a moment the as
actual value. 1t is not a fact therefore that
the average or assessed values is probably less
than 90 per cent of the real value but ar the
same time, with this condition, there exist the
utmost inequality and unfairness Of assess
ments as between individual parcels.

Yet still exult as far from view
Thou mountest: though bright days be few,
Far better prize

Sometime hath shed

PRR FRANCHISE PUT OFF AGAIN.
ALDERMEN FAIL TO APPEAR FOR RAIL
ROAD COMMITTEE HEARING.

Unfavorable comment was provoked yesterday
on account of the failure of the aldermen's COM
mittee on railroads. of which John Diemer is
chairman. to hold hearing on the Pennsyl-
vania Railroads application for a tunnel fran
chise. There were plenty of people around. but
not enough aldermen were present to form a
quorum.
Borough President Cantor last Tuesday asked
for immediate action on the tunnel franchise.
and a special meeting of the committee was
ordered for yesterday. Alderman Diemer and
several members Of the committee were on hand
at one time. but they went away, and then
other members of the committee came and went
away.
At the meeting of the board on Tuesday next
a motion will be made to discharge the commit
tee from further consideration of the tunnel
resolution. 1t is the common belief that the
motion will be defeated.
The Pennsylvania officials have informally
sent the word around that their motto. with
reference to the securing of the franchise. is
