COLLATERAL STOLEN.

Amount Left to Pay Depositors May
Not Exceed 25 Per Cent.
Chicago, Aug. 1.-THE belief that
large amounts of the collateral given
as security for notes in the Milwau-
kee Avenue Bank had been stolen,
practically became a certainty last
night, when a note for $1,000 known
to be genuine, was found in Presi-
dent Stensland's house. A search was
made for the collateral security, but
The Roswell daily record. [volume] (Roswell, N.M.) 1903-current, 1906-08-14

it could not be found. The discovery
opened up an avenue for unlimited
speculation as to how far the looting
proceeded before Stensland disappear
ed. If the real estate and other Sc
curities of the bank be stolen or
found to be worthless, the amount
left to pay depositors probably will
be reduced as low as 25 per cent.

SOFT COAL TAKES JUMP
The Price Advances Forty=five
Cents Per Ton Nov. I==This is
just the Beginning.

Way up goes the price of hituminous
soft coal.
On top OF the scarcity of wood, and
in persuance Of the statement made
in this paper last week that the
price of soft coal would take a Jump,
comes the announcement that Nov. !
will see an advance in the price of
this article of forty-five cents per ton.
The reason assigned for the advance
il the price, is the inability of the
transportation companies to move the
output of the mines to the supply
stations. In Ohio, Pennsylvania and
West Virginia, the bituminous coal
mines have been working only half
the time, because of the inability Ct
the railroad companies to furnish the
cars necessary to move the output,

noon by the wild plunging of a big,
handsome, black horse, which came
tearing down Grand Ave, across the
bridge, and along First street as far as
the First National bank building
where it was brought to a stop by one
of the men employed on the electric
light poles. When the frightened
animal reached First street it took to

The horse was hitched near Moore's

to run away. Fortunately it cleared
all other rigs during its flight, and no
damage resulted other then that to
the buggy. The vehicle was very
badly demolished. The horse was

CALLED ANNUAL
CONVENTION
County Superintendent Norris
Has Called This Convention
at Opera House in This CITY
On Nov. 9TH.

In perSuance TO the revised statutes
regulating the school matters of the
state, the county superintendent of
schools in this county, has issued his
| call for the annual convention of the
members of the school boards of the
different townships in Wood county,
to be held at the Grand Opera house
in this city Wednesday. November
7th.
This convention is something that
is looked for ward to by many of the
members of the different school boards
as means of getting in closer touch
with the new aud up-to-date methods
of conducting school work, as well as
with their fellow workers all over the
county. The experiences of the diff
ferent members are discussed, and as
result many difficulties which have
been encountered in one section of
the county are made easier by the
knowledge of the methods employed
in some other section to over come
the same obstacles. The state or
county pay the expense of the clerks
and directors, and this in itself has a
tendency to increase the attendance
at these valuable gatherings.
For the meeting called by County
Superintendent Morris on the above
date, thorough preparation has been
made. 1t was the intention OF that
official to cali the meeting some time in
December, but owing to the fact that
the present date would enable the
state superintendent OF schools to be
present, it was thought best to call
the same on November 18th.
Not only will Supt. c. P. Cary be
present at the convention and address
the members regarding school matters,
but President J. +. Sims Of the
Stevens Point Normal school has also
been secured. Both these gentlemen
ure high authority on questions of
education. and the members who at
tend this convention may congratulate
themselves, on having them on their
program.
This is convention that everyone
interested in the active work of
managing schools might well afford
the time to attend, but especially is it
true that the members of the schoo
boards in every township in the
county ought to be present without
exception. There are about three
hundred OF these in the county all
told, and it is confidently expected
that at least two hundred and fifty
will be present in this city at this
convention.

GRANDFATHER FALLS DAM
Work at That Point on Wisconsin
River Progresses Favorably.

The work of clearing away and con-
structing the Golfer dams at the
Grandfather Falls on the Wisconsin
river, is progressing very fav9rably.
On the west side of the river at this
place the Golfer dam is nearly com
| pleted, and in consequence tire founda-
tion for the dam proper can be con-
otructed Solidly. The maSonary work
| has been started on both sides of the
| river. Owing to the large amount of
rock at this place good deal of blast
ing has been found necessary. The
sand used in the cement mixture has
to be drawn about a mile, while the
cement and other materials used in
the construction work must be carried
from Gilbert, distance Of seven or
eight miles.
The power house for this plant will
be located on the east side of the
river. 1t Will be modern in all re-
spects and will furnish when COM
pleted about $500 horsepower. This
power will be transferred to Merrill
in the form of electricity.
1t is the intention of the company
to make use of the electric machinery
now being used at the Dells of the
Prairie river. This machinery will
be moved to Grandfather Falls, and
at later date the DellS' plant will be
equipped with machinery more suited
to its purpose,
The firm of Jacobson & DeGuere of
this city drew the plans and are the
supervising engineers for this new de-
yelopment. The construction work
is under the immediate personal
Of John O'DaY, of Merrill,
and it is expected when the new
power is completed, thai it will be
perfect in all ways.

A SAD LIFE ENDS

Mary Lee Scott, go Laurel avenue,
died Wednesday afternoon of a broken
heart, as the result of her husbands s
| departure with another woman.
The husband, Thomas B. Scott,
went to ST. Paul with his young bride
ten years ago. He was a prosperous
business man in st. Paul and after a
few years built a beautiful residence
on Summit Ave. The young couple
who were entire strangers at first,
soon became popular in society.
In the late '9O'S, society was startled
by scandal when Mr.. Scott left st.
Paul in company with Mrs. A. III.
Mayer, who before her marriage was
Rachel A. Berkley, daughter of pro
minent business man.
Scott and the Mayer woman were
later located in Chicago, where Scott
secured divorce from his young wife
and married the Mayer woman.
Mrs. Scott suffered in silence,
gradually growing old before her time.
she took her two children from the
mansion on Summit avenue, to a
modest home on Laurel Ave, where
she pined away and died.
Funeral services were held at the
late home and the body will be taken
to its last resting place at her former
horne in Nashville, Tenn.-Minnea-
polls Tribune.
Thos. B. Scott, was born and
brought up in this city, and many
people here remember him. At the
time Scott ran away with the Mayer
woman, the REPORTER published the
of the incident, which caused
no little excitement. The death of
his wronged wife, contained in the
above item, is the sad ending of one
Of life's tragedies.
