Bank Attending c. r. Lynde's
Withdrawal.

c. F. Lynde leaves tomorrow night
for Muskogee, l. T, where he will be
located hereafter, although it is graft
flying to know that his affairs will be
so arranged that much of his time will
be spent in Rock Island, so that he is
not to be lost entirely to his native
city, Notwithstanding that his interests
will be largely in lands in the Indian
Territory.
1t is learned further that both Mr.
Lynde and his brother, s. A. Lynde of
Chicago. have sold their holdings in the
State Bank of Rock Island, the bulk OF
the stock having gone to |. S. White
of this city, who thus becomes one of
the largest stockholders in that bank.
The retirement of Mr.. Lynde will, as
heretofore stated, leave vacant the Of
fee of vice-president, which will be
supplied at the next meeting of the
board of directors of the bank.
With the disposition the entire
Lynde interests in the State bank, the
last association of one of the oldest and
best known banks, not only in Rock
Island, but the state of Illinois, is re-
moved. With the formation of the
State Bank of Rock Island, the name

A DEATH DfFYING
 AUTOMOBILE RIDE
Tucson Machine Takes Header Over a Thirty Foot Bluff. None of the Five Occupants Badly Hurt.

Tucson holds the Arizona record for having very serious automobile catas- trophes in which nobody is hurt Read CTS of The Republican will remember an account not long ago of a ride talk en by a party of Tucson people in which the occupants of the rear seat were thrown out one evening when the machine was going at forty or fifty miles an hour. Their absence was not noticed for some time by those on the font seat but when it was discovered the auto went back and those who had jumped the game were sitting in the sand, unhurt and laughing at their eX- perience.
 Below is given an account published in the Citizen of Thursday of an in cident which in the natural order of things would have ended in several fatalities, but which did not result seriously. One of those concerned is William Buckingham, representing Fairbanks. Morse & Co. well known in Phoenix and ali over Arizona. The Citizen says:
 An automobile last evening. while bowling smoothly along the mountain road at the foot of the Tucson noun tains. about one mile from the city, swerved suddenly and before any were

aware of it. went crashing into a row of mesquite bushes and then plunged headlong over an embankment thirty feet high.
 Although all were hurle! from the machine. strange as it may seem, not a single person was seriously hurt That the entire party escaped death or at least serious injury, was almost miraculous.
 The occupants of the machine were Mir. and Mrs. Ralph Langworthy. Will liam Buckingham. a well known min ing machinery salesman from Los An- geles, w. J. Savage. hoisting engineer at the Paymaster mine. and Frank Sutherland. the chauffeur.
 The accident happened about S:Se o'clock last evening. The party was en route to the city from a visit to the Paymaster mine.
 The accident was caused by the dropping out of a 5.nall pin in the steering rod beneath the machine. This accident rendered the steering wheel powerless and the machine followed it's own wild course, through the brush and over the steep embankment
 The auto was traveling about ten miles an hour at the time Chauffeur Sutherland and Savage occupied the front seat. while Buckingham and MT. and Mrs. LangwOrthy were on the rear seat.
 Less than two minutes before the accident the machine had been spin ming along at a thirty-mile an hour clip. It was checked by the chauffeur owing to the fact that the road along the mountain is very narrow in places. IL had settled down to the slow speed when the accident occurred.

Former Virginian Contributes This Amount in Exploiting Attractions of Jamestown Exposition.

Norfolk. Va, November IS (Specia, Correspondence of The Republican).- Through the courtesy and liberality of James A Humphrey. general manager and secretary of the Humphrey Adver- Using Company of Chicago. and secre- tary of the Illinois Jamestown Commis- sion. a campaign of publicity setting forth the spIendors and unique features of the Jamestown Exposition has been inaugurated which will be wide reach ing in its effect
 The plan comprises the display of eolored hangers and the distribution of Exposition literature in 4.272 railway stations in illinois, Tennessee. Missis- sippi. Nebraska, Arkansas. Texas, Ken lucky. Alabama. Missouri, Kansas, Ok lahoma and Louisiana. This offer tn exploit the exposition is made by Mi Humphrey for no other reason than his unbounded enthusiasm in the purposes of the celebration. and his faith in its effect as a determining factor in the future commercial and industrial de- velopment of the country.

Va. in 1607. where was planted the seed from which has grown these Uuited States
 IL Is believed that this extensive plan of publicity will be productive of ma- terially increasing the already assured large attendance. and it is a conserva- tive prediction that the number of wis., itors to the Jamestown Ter-Centennia, to be held on the shore of Hempton Roads. near the cities of Norfolk.
