PIONEER BANKS
TO OCLOSETO.DAY
Nevada National and Wells
Fargo & Company Will
Cease Business at Noon
ELLKNOWNINHISTORY
Consolidation of Financial
Concerns Is Effected and
New One Will Open Monday

With the close Of the banking hour
to-day two of San Francisco's pioneer
financial concerns will pass out OF ex-
istence and Monday will witness the
entrance upon its career of another
big banking Institution in this city.
1t was announced yesterday that the
work Of consolidation OF the Nevada
National Bank of San Francisco and
the Wells. Fargo & Co. bank under
the name of the Wells. Fargo Nevada
National Bank OF San Francisco had
been completed and that the latter in
stitutlon would open its doors on Mon
day.
The passing of the Nevada National
RaT.k out of existence removes from
this city an institution that has fg-
ured prominently in the financial af-
fairs of San Francisco for thirty years.
During that entire period it has occu-
pied its present quarters on the COR
ne. of Montgomery and Pine streets
and it vas there that the millions in
gold taken from the Comstock mines
o. Nevada were originally deposited.
Formerly controlled by the bonanza
kings, Flood. Mackay, Fair and
o'Erien, the bank was an important
factor in their big stock manipulations
AMI was known throughout the world
as the mining bank of the Pacific
Coast. 1t passed into the control of
/. w. Hellman and his associates IN
1889 and under their management
rapsGly became identified as a COM
n,eTcial bank, handling all the big
deals beginning with the sale of the
Market Street Railway to the United
Railroads few years ago, UP to the
recent Japanese bond issues.
Wells, Fargo & Co.'S bank Is an
older bank than the Nevada National
and was the depository for miners all
over the coast in the early days Of
mining in this State, but although as
widely known as the other, it never
figured so prominently in the finan-
cial affairs of the city and State as the
Nevada National.
The opening of the Wells, Fargo
Nevada National Bank on Monday
will give to San Francisco the sixth
largest national bank in this country,
the larger ones being one in Chicago.
one in st. Louis and three in New
York City.

An eminent physician says that
"Women are not truthful; they viii lie
to their physician. This statement
should be qualified; women do tell the
truth, but not the whole truth, to a
male physician, but this is only in re-
gard to those painful and troublesome
disorders peculiar to their sex.
There can be no more terrible ordeal
to a delicate, sensitive, refined woman
than to be obliged to answer certain
questions when those questions are
asked. even by her family physician.
This is especially the case with un-
married women.
Is it any wonder, then, that women
continue to suffer and that doctors
fail to cure female diseases when they
cannot get the proper information to
work on
This is the reason why thousands and
thousands of women are now corre-
spending with Mrs. Pinkham. To her
they can and do give every symptom,
so that she really knows more about
the true condition of her patients.
through her correspondence with them
than the physician who personally
questions them.
Ifyou suffer from any form Of trouble
peculiar to women, write at once to
Mrs. Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, and she
will advise you free of charge.
The fact that this great boon, which
is extended freely to women by Mrs.
Pinkham, is appreciated, the thou
sands of letters received by her prove.
Many such grateful letters as the fol-
lowing are constantly pouring in.

BY SALLY SHARP.

One gay day in spring, not so many
years ago, a gay little bunch Of school
girls gathered together for a gay 1T
tie chat-chatter, perhaps-with an al
Turing box Of chocolates between them.
They were happy, these fair little
maids Of fortune-so happyi-and
somehow they discovered it and fell
TO discussing il. They were wise, you
see-these little maids
And to emphasize to each other the
JOY Of their lives. they dwelt upon the

And they did-right then and there.
They called themselves The Chrys

with the blue eyes bore a bunch of
them in her arms.
They elected officers Just like grown

chocolate money to create a treasury.
Since then the girls have passed the

RUDOLPH Herring TALKS
ABOUT SPRING VALLEY
Assistant City Attorney Partridge
Comments Upon His Estimate of
Cost OF New York System.

Rudolph Herring, witness in the
Spring Valley case before United
States Commissioner Heacock, was
confronted yesterday by Assistant City
Attorney Partridge with his own re-
ports made to the Merchants Asso-
citation in the city of New York while
he was acting as a member of the en-
gineering commission appointed by
the association to devise a new supply
for that city. He admitted that he
had estimated that all the work nec-
essary to bring 250, 100000 gallons a.
day from a distance of eighty-five
miles above New York would cost only
about $3e, 900, 900 and that included
in addition the cost of a filtering
plant to filter the entire $50, 900, 600
gallons day. He also admitted that
the cost per million gallons of water
delivered in the city of New York in
the year 1898 was less than SIS, and.
in fact, was nearer 500. He likewise
admitted that the company had Of
fered to supply water for New York
at a cost Of $40 per million gallons
and that he had stated in public that
he considered that $40 was very ex-
ceesive amount
The witness swore further that he
was receiving a $15, 700 fee from the
Spring Valley Company as expert, all
his expenses and $50 per day for each
DAY he testified. The cross-examina-
ton will be resumed to-day.

Margaret Anglin will present 'The

Lysander and his Greek warriors

FALSE HUNGER
