Bank Of .'isyai, Closed IFS Doors
Yesterday With EGrcsl.s
SInDait.

The northwestern portion of
Harrison county is not proving
a verdant field for small bank
ing institutions with limited
capital.
A few weeks ago the Adams
bank at Little Sioux quit bust
ness without paying off all it's
deposits andyesterday the bank
at Pisgah, this county, posted a
notice ON its doors stating bust
ness has been suspended for an
indefinite period. E. C. Hutch
|ison, formerly of Council Bluffs
owned the bank, and has turned
over all of the institutions
affairs to Books Reed of Coun-
ell Bluffs, making him a deed
of trust to protect the interests
of the banks depositors. When
the bank first commenced bust
ness about a year ago, it did a
fairly prosperous business. At
the time Of the failure the de-
posts amounted to about S15,-
900, while the loans exceeded
that amount by about $4,000.
The failure of a heavy borrow
er TO liquidate his Indebtedness
at the stated time is attributed
as the cause of the banks
downfall. Some of the local
bankers who have followed the
affairs Of the Pisgah bank say
it will pay out almost 100 cents
on the dollar, but several months
will be required.

And still they come. A Des

the state that was the home of
the great emancipation engaged
in the "inocent" pastime, Satur-
day, of hanging a niger to a
telegraph pole, and afterwards
burning the body in a bonfire in
the public square in that city.
The Negro had assaulted a re-

a wrong of that kind as are the

Commenced Survey

j. A. Nash, president of the
new electric railroad, returned
from Des Moines Wednesday.
He met Mr.. Wilson, the gentle
man who has the contract for
surveying, and got his report
on the preliminary outlook
which is very favorable as far
as Harlan. Mr.. Nash went out
to Grimes Tuesday morning
and the gang of surveyors
started from there. The route
isalready practically located as
far as Panora, Mr.. Wilson
thinks it will take about seventy
days to do the surveying. We
understand that Mr.. Wilson re-
ports a most favorable outlook
for a good route through Audu-
bon county but beyond Harlan
the preliminary outlook was
very unfavorable. Audubon

Interesting and Beautiful
Pamphlet on Gate
Hlfy

Commendablc enterprise is
shown by the Chicago & North
western railway in the issuance
OF a neat little pamphlet, de-
voted entirely to the interests
of the city of Omaha. The
book is entitled "Omaha: A
Typical City of the West" and
contains several beautiful half
tone engravings showing the
bridge across the Missouri at
Omaha, the buffalo hunt in the
early days, birdseye view of
the city, several of the princi-
pal public buildings and som
scenes in the public parks.
The Introductory page is de-
voted to the verse by Bryant
Orchards and gardens smiled
through all the land,
And happy homes We're every
where,
And cities rose, as if a magic
wand
Had touched the earth, and,
lOi 2 town was there.
The principal articles which
the work contains are a des-
cription of the railway in the
interest of which the pamphlet
is published, an article on the
phenomenal growth of Omaha,
ga History of the City, "The
Omaha of Today" What Oma-
ha Has" Several pages are
devoted to South Omaha, it's
industries and growth. Atten-
ton is called to the fact that
the city on the south showed a
larger percentage of increase
in population according to the
census of 1900 than any other
city in the United States. the
percentage being 222.5. Coun-
Gil Bluffs also comes in very
favorable mention. Taken all
in all the book should be very
interesting to the people living
in the territory adjacent to the
greatest city in this part of the
domain of Uncle Samuel. 1t
should also be circulated with
pride by the citizens of Oma-
ha. Omaha Bee.

A GREAT woRgY CU..s

A GREAT WORRY GUYS
Common Sense Is The Best &C.
NEEDY That Can Be Pre-
SCribsd
! once askeda physician what
cure he could suggest for the
worrying habit. 81 would pre-
scribe common sense he said,
and if a man or woman hasn't
got a stock on hand and canrot
cultivate one the medical man
is powcrless. /" This worrying
nonsense grows. The best
means to cure it lies in the
h ,nds of the woman herself.
Ifshe will just call a little
horse sense to her aid, resolve
not to borrow trouble, to be
cheerful and think upon the
right side of thiags, she will
live longer and b. able to re-
tain her beauty. Every woman
has the strongest desire to keep
her good looks. Why, then,
does she take the course which
is sure to make her yellow skin
n I'd, dull eyed and thoroughly
unlovely?
The Englishwoman is greatly
a lmired for her utter refusal
to worry or to be worried.
Undertaking no more than she
can comfortably carry out and
firmly believing in the coming
of another day, she does not
psocrastinate but simply will
not let the domestic machinery
grind her down to i'll health
and early old age.
She is a frequent bather and
regards health as the prime
factor of life, to be looked after
before every thing else. She
sleeps nine hours and also takes
a nap during the day, arrang-
ing her work in the most sy-
stematic manner.
Her little memorandum slip
always shows two vacant hours
they are for rest. She eats
heartily, but of the most digesti-
bic food, and would rather have
a mouthful of good food and go
partly hungry than eat a whole
meal of cheaper things. Phila-
delphia Inquirer.
La Figaro of Paris states
that the members of the Jockey
club of that city have a serious
affair to settle with Leopold II
of Belgium on his next visit to
the French capital, which will
occur toward the end of the
present month. 1t seems that
when the king was last there,
in February, he dined at the
club off a "canard aux navets,"
which he pronounced to be the
finest he had ever eaten, and
the next day the chef of the
club disappeared. 1t was later
learned that he had been kid
mapped by the Belgian monarch
and is now in charge of the
royal kitchen at Lachen. Then
the Jockey club met and re-
solved some disagreeahle things
about the royal aoue, with more
to come.

Rumor Again Says Burt Will
Leave.

Rumors are again current in
railroad circles in the east that
Governor Odell of New York is
to become president of the
Union Pacific Railroad COM
pany as soon as he finishes his
term of office. About two
years ago it was first reported
that Governor Odell would get
the place.
Mr.. Olell has always been
much interested in the Union
Pacific, and is a close friend of
y. Fl. Hartman, the controlling
power of the Hartman lines.
1t has long been reported
that there has been a difference
of opinion between Mr.. Burt
and Mr.. Hartman. The report
says in the event Mr.. Burt
leaves the Union Pacific. he
will go to the Northwestern.
The Northwestern is pro-
jecting a line across the Rockies
and Mr.. Burt and President
Hughitt have recently made an
extended trip through the west
over the territory of the pro-
posed extension.
Should Mr.. Odell become the
ruling power of the Union
Pacific, it is not probable that
he would come to Omaha, but
that a general manager would
be appointed to take charge of
the western interests Of the
line. Omaha News.
M. O'Connor, foreman boiler
maker of the C. & N. w. shops

locomotive fire box door. This
invention is said by practical
railroad men to be a novel one
and a big improvement on the
original fire door. The C. & N.
w. is placing this improved
door on all locomotives that go
through the shops for general
repair at this point.

Iowa City Republican: The

In one of his sermons recently
he referred in terms of scorn to
the parent who cannot manage
a l6-year-old sissy not yet big
enough to turn a fapjack with
out scattering batter all over
the kitchen. eff she insisted
on keeping company with some
scapegrace," said Billy, I'D

dust her western hemisphere. "
1t is a shame that such men are
permitted to fill pulpits and
preach where the innocent
minded young can hear them.
The country has too many
Chilly" Sundays, whom the peo-
pie rush to hear while sensible
preaching is done to too many
empty benches. The circus
always was and possibly always
will be popular, and the people
do not make distinctions as to
where the ring is located.

The OnaWa Sentinel says: ga
team stood at the hitching rack
all day long Saturday, after hav-
ing been driven a long ways
early in the morning. The hor-
ses had only the substance
which they could get out of the
air and i'm the particular place
in which they stood there wasa
very small amount of vital for
ce in the air. The driver did
not even select a level place to
stable the animals and they
were forced to hold back the We
hicle while their hind quarters
were at least a foot above their
fore-parts. We hoped to see the
man offer the team a drink at
the free and open watering
trough on the square before he
left town, but not even that hui
manity was given the poor crea-
lures and no doubt they were
forced home at a high rate Of
speed, hungry, thirsty, gaunt
and miserable. What do you
think about it,"

I,aiaps md Citizenship.

Indians who maintain their tribal re-
lations are not permitted to vote in any
state. They are not citizens OF the
United States, but merely wards OF
the nation" In all the states we be.
lieve, an Indian who has severed his
tribal relations and become citizen
and taxpayer has right to yoke on
an equality with the whites. In the
matter of voting the fifteenth amend
meGt to the constitution prohibits the
states from making any discrimination
on account of race or color. Our nat
uralization laws, for instance, do not
admit Cinnamon to naturalization, but
the supreme court has decided that n
Chinaman born here is as much citi-
zen as are the descendants of those
who came over with John Smith to
Jamestown or with the pilgrim fathers
to Plymouth rock. And the Indian
ought to have better rights here than
the Chinaman.-St. Louis Republic.
