BANK HAD BIG CAPITAL. - INCORPORATED
IN 1904 WITH S1,00o,00 BUT
INCREASED TO S2,5OO,OOO,

st. Louis, July 8. = The Peoples
United States Bank was incorporated
November II, 1904, with capital stock
of one million dollars. The capital
stock was increased March 10, 1905, to
50, 800, 900, of which 100000 was
paid in.
The original capital was divided into
10000 shares, 9,915 of which were held
by E. G. Lewis. The remaining IS
shares were shown to be held by seven
teen others, each of whom held five
shares.
The men chosen for lhe first board of
directors were Edward G.. Lewis, Frank
J. Cabot, Augustine P. Coakley, Eugene
w. Thompson and Guy A. Arbogast.
E. G. Lewis began advertising the
bank in the February 1904, edition OF
the Woman's Magazine, publication
which he owned and controlled and
which he had been publishing IN st.
Louis at the time for about a year.
This publication has continued to carry
the advertisements of the bank since
that time. Early statements regarding
the bank were filed with hope and
promise. In the Woman's Magazine
for July, 1904, it was stated by Lewis:
ESince my article appeared in your
last issue over 10000 subscriptions to
the capital stock of our bank have been
received. I am arranging to turn nearly
everything l have into cash, outside OF
nv stockholding in my present publish
ing business, and expect to subscribe
for at least ST 100000 of the stock Of our
bank. | must pay cash, exactly the
same as you do, for my stock, as there IS
no promoters stock in this bank, but
when it opens its doors there will be
dollar in cash in the vaults for every
dollar of cnpital stock and every dollar
Of my profit will go to increase the re
serve of the bank each year.
"Already the enormous success Of the
bank is assured. Oae banker OF Chi
cago has offered to place million dol
lars of our stock in a single day. A
San Francisco banker subscribed for
100000 of the stock, but was permitted
to have only $500, and if any of my
readers fail to get in before all the stock
is subscribed, I shall not let this banker
have the 500 of stock"

The Peoples United States Bank has
quite a number of stockholders in Bay
ST. Louis, among whom the following

The field for such bank was splen =
did, the time opportune with so much
idle money lying all over the country
and the plan a most feasible and invit-
ing one. Managed honestly, the invest
ment would have been splendid one OF
big dividends, but in consequence Of the
immensity Of the concern and the weak
ness of Mr.. Lewis, the project proved a
| failure.

PROCLAMATION OF AN OFFER OF
 REWARD.
By the Governor of Arizona.

Whereas. I have been officially in formed that Samuel s. PIunkett and Edward F. Kennedy. citizens of Gila county. this territory. were murdered on the 12th day of July. 1905. by some person or persons unknown; and
 Whereas. The sheriff of said Gila county has requested me to offer on behalf of the territory a reward for the arrest of the murderer or mur- derers of the said Samuel s. Plunkett and Edward F. Kennedy; and in sup port of his request has stated that the whereabouts of the said murderer or murderers is unknown to him; and that there is reason to fear that the pereptrators of the said murders will escape arrest unless a reward is offer ed by the territory for their apprehen- sion: and
 Whereas. It appears that the said sheriff of GiIa county, and his depu- ties, have used due diligence in their efforts to apprehend the said murder CTS and so far have failed in such ef- forts; and
 Whereas. It appears that extraordin- ary reasons exist for resOrting to this method of aiding in the capture of the fugitives.
 Now. therefore. I, Joseph H. kibbey, governor of Arizona, by virtue of the power and authority in me vested by law. do hereby offer a reward of five hundred dollars for the arrest and con victiOn of the murderer, or any of the murderers. if there are more than one. of the aforesaid Samuel $. Plunkett and Edward F. Kennedy, or for the murderer or any of the murderers of either of them.
 Tn witness whereof. l have hereunto set my hand and caused the great seal of the territory to be hereto affixed. Done at Phoenix. the capital, this 29th day of July, 1905.

Little West Wind was very busy on

dew and blow about the smell Of the
flowers which the people were carrying
in their professions till the air was all
sweet.
81 wish 1 had some flowers to carry"
he sighed when at last he found time to
rest a minute.
~ know what" he said to himself,
with a whistle. "There is a dandelion
gone to seed, and the little soft plumes
are just as pretty as flowers"
So he pulled lightly on the dandelion,
and all the seeds began to dance. Then
he lifted them gently and carried them
through the air like a feet of little
white boats and dropped them in that
corner Of the cemetery where poor peo-
pie were buried and there were hardly
any flowers.
''Now, goodby, my dears," he said.
II must go to the other side Of the
world and help the little Chinese boys
to fly their kites"
The next year they had all turned into
golden flowers. And every one Of them
nodded it's pretty head to him, as If to
say "We remember" YOUTHS Com

SAVED BY A WOMAN.
Why the Alabama Was Not Detained
by the British Government


It is perhaps not generally known
that the Alabama, in spite of the omis-
sion Of the English customs authori-
ties to seize her, might in the end have
been detained but for an act of wifely
devotion On the 22d and oath Of July,
1862, evidence directly inculpating
the vessel was communicated by the
American legation in London to the
British foreign Office. On the 23d and
Goth Of July the papers were referred
to the law officers Of the crown and as
the law officers had no permanent of
fee were sent as usual to the senior
officer, who was then Sir John Dor
ney Harding, queens advocate, his as
sociates being Sir William Anterior,
attorney general, and Sir Rounded
Palmer, afterward Lord Selborne, So
licitor general Unfortunately Sir John
Harding had just then fallen a victim
to an acute mental disorder, which
proved to be fatal, but which his wife,
in the hope that it would soon pass
away, had kept secret.
Upon the decision to be rendered by
the law officers there hung perchance
the issues Of peace and war and the
fate of nations, but the papers lay I'M
examined at Sir Johns residence ap-
parently till the 29th Of July, when
the foreign Office, growing anxious at
the delay, but ignorant Of its cause,
took steps to recover them and placed
them in the hands Of Sir William Ath-
erton. On the evening Of the same
day Sir William, perceiving the CRAWL
ty Of the situation which the papers
disclosed, called Sir Rounded Palmer
into consultation upon them in the
earl marshal's room in the house of
lords. They at once agreed that the
vessel must be seized. An opinion to
that effect was delivered to Earl Rus
sell on the morning Of the Goth of July,
but during the night Of the 2Sth the
Alabama left the docks in which she
had been lying. At 10 o'clock on the
morning Of the Doth she put to sea. The
order to detain her reached Liverpool
in the aftarnoon.-John BasSett Moore
in Harper's Magazine.
