QUAKER BANK FAILS
BAD LOANS WRECK REAL ES-
TATE TRUST COMPANY.
Presbyterian Church Boards Had
Nearly 81 200, 900 on Deposit
Deceive Directors.

The Real Estate Trust company, of
Philadelphia, organized in 1885, the
depository for nearly $1,000, 900 of
the funds Of the Presbyterian church,
and holding 100000 Of the money
OF the city of Philadelphia and $175,-
600 Of state deposits, has closed its
doors.
The failure was caused by heavy
loans made by the late president,
Frank X. Nipple, to Adolph Segal, a
promoter, on insufficient securities.
A desperate effort was made to
save the institution by the board of
directors through an appeal to the
Clearing House association, but that
body declined to subscribe a guaran-
sufficient security.
The liabilities are placed at $10,-
600, 600, with quick assets Of $500
900 and doubtful collateral amounting
to $S,OO0,000.
George X. Earle, Jr., president of
the Finance Company of Pennsyl-
vania, was appointed receiver, and in
a statement to the public he expresses
the hope that he may soon be able to
recommend a plan to the depositors
that will better serve their inter ests
and terminate his services.
President Nipple was always re-
garded as a conservative financier, bot
following his sudden death last Fri
day, an investigation by the directors
disclosed the fact that his loans to
Segal had been made regardless o..
proper security, and that he had
made false statements to the directors
of the banks condition. Friends OF
the presiden> express the belief thai:
Segal exercised a I.protic influence
over Mr.. Nipple.

POTATO BLIGHT IN IRELAND.
A Serious Famine is Feared During
the Winter.

Potato blight has appeared in every
county of Ireland. Sporadic cases
were noticed in Connaught three
weeks ago, after which the disease
spread with alarming rapidity. In
several districts every field is COM
pletely blackened. Government Off
Gals are making Investigations.
The blight points to a serious pota-
TO famine mex winter. but the peas
ants are less alarmed than in pre-
vious years, as the remittances from
their relatives in America are larger
than usual this season.
lreland's potato crop was ravaged
by blight in the years 1916 and 1916.
The entire crop failed. The worst
famine and pestilence known to mod
ern European history ragged through
Ireland during the next few years.
One-quarter of the population, which
was at that time more than 5000, 900,
is said by some authorities to have
died of starvation. England and the
United States sent large sums of
money and quantities of food, but all
contributions were inadequate. The
u Of the potato blight is a disease
in the plant that affects the tubers,
producing decay.

Without any doubt whatever Soutn

P~ARKSTON'S AMBITION.
To Have a City Hall Building Not
Realized.

Parkston's ambition to have a city
hall building looks like it is going to
nave a hard time of realization. After
the city council a awarded the con-
tract everything looked like clear SAIL
ing for the project to be carried for
ward, until several individuals indicat-
ed that they were rather sore over
the proposition and declined to stand
for the expenditure of the money.
They employed an attorney and secur-
ed an injunction before Judge Smith
at Yankton restraining the city coun-
Gil from using the mon-Y in the treas
ury which had been designated for
city hall purposes.
When the city council finished put
ting in q fine system Of water works
there was about $4,000 left from the
amount thought necessary to them
and the members thought the money
could be placed to a better advantage
than by erecting a city hall bui!Csrg.
1t seems that the men who are in the
lead in the injunction matter failed o
have the water mains end along
in front of their property and are tax
ing this means to get even with the
council.

NOW SAYS HUSBAND LIVES.
Wife Had Collected on Two Insurance
Policies,


Last April Mrs. P. ]. Kempler, IF
Chicago, reported to the police that
her husband had disappeared, and
later she identified as his body the
corpse of a mar which was found
floating in the drainage canal. The
body vas taken to the home of Mrs.
Kempler, a funeral was held and Mrs.
Kempler collected an insurance policy
amounting to 2 1000 and another small
policy which Kempler held in a frater-
nal organization.
In the latter part of May the bohy
of a man was found floating in Lake
Michigan and Mrs. Kempler, while Lot
being able to identify the features,
declared positively that the suit of
clothes upon the body was that worn
by her husband when he disappeared.
Late Saturday she informed the po-
lice that her husband is alive and re-
siding in Allegan, Mich. She declared
that she received information some
time ago that caused her to think
Kempler was living in Allegan and she
went there in disguise. She says hat
she saw her husband and talked with
him without him discovering her iden-
tity.
