SAVINGS BANK.

MANY people start in to save by fits
and starts. They make deposits in a
savings bank for two or three months
and then stop and get into their old
habits of spending what they earn. The
Pioneer Building & Loan Association by
requiring a monthly deposit of the
same amount each month breaks them
of the spending habit as they soon
come to look upon their payments as a
monthly expense that must be met
The interest earned for 1902 was 111a%o

For the next two weeks we are
certain of having some fast ball In
the city. The management have
done and are doing everything pos
sible to secure such clubs here as
will please the patrons, and for the
immediate future have succeeded.
The attractions already billed
should secure large crowds, and
not only should the fans be pleased,
but the sheckels as they roll into
the hands OF the treasurer should
make glad the hearts of those who
must supply the sinews OF war.
Tomorrow the strong Kindle-
burgers, of Wheeling, will be here.
This Is one OF the best of the semi
amteure teams of the Nail City, and
was always an attraction In Sisters

best team that city can provlde.and
propose to take scalp home with
them If possible.

SOME GOOD GAMES

On Thursday and Saturday, the
great Braddock, Pa, team will be at
the park. Their appearance will
give our people an opportunity to
Judge between the home boys and
the strong ones of another State.
They will not play on Friday for
the reason that the show that day
will be all the attraction the people
can stand.
On Monday the Charleston boys
will be here for three games. They
will come with the determination
that at least majo1ity of the
games shall be theirs. They want
to show that the games lost to them
at Charleston were on their merits.
Outcalt and his boys are equally
determined that revenge sweet; sure
and sufficient shall be their portion.
There will be fun at the park next
week. Garry Owen will see such
efforts to win ball games as have
not been witnessed In that neck.o-
woods this season.

LADY PAINFULLY INJURED

GERS. Why people who own dogs
do not keep them at home, and
thereby prevent them annoying
their neighbors Is question. If
some owners of dogs were prose-
cuted for the accidents and damages
they cause, 1t might teach them a
lesson.
There Is an ordinance compelling
all dogs to be registered, numbered
and tagged, but there IS a large
number of worthless CANNES In the
city that for some unknown reason
are not. 1t Is stated on good au-
thority that the fee which caused
the accident last evening to Miss
Irwin, was not among the number
registered. There Is something
like 500 dogs In the city, and only
B of the number have been regis
tered. Whose to blame for this
gross neglect of duty and oath OF
ofice? 1t occurs to Us that certain
matters are going from bad to worse,
and will continue to do so just as
long as the city legislators follow
their present policy.

OUR DRUGGISTS
ARE THINKING OF FORMING
COOPERATIVE INSURANCE
COMPANY,

The retail druggists Of Kentucky
have plan on foot by which they
will carry their own fire insurance and
escape the high rates now charged by
the insurance companies.
At the last meeting OF the Retail
Druggists Association OF Louisville
, the plan was discussed and commit.
tee appointed to investigate the plan.
The committee will make it's report
at the next meeting to be held in No
vember
The druggists claim that they are
less liable TO loss by fire than is any
other business, yet their insurance
rate Is much higher. They base their
claim on the fact that their business
hours are longer and that after the
losing of their stores there is q clerk
who spends the night in the building.
The Druggists Mutual Protective
Association against loss by fire has
been successfully carried on in the
states of New York, Massach usetts
and Ohio.
