BANK PRESIDENT BORROWED THE
 MONEY
Same Old Story of Speculation by Bank Officers Brings
 Disaster.

CHELSEA, Mass, Aug 1S.-The fol- lowing information. given by Bank Examiner Ever to the Comptroller at Washington, that the failure of the First National Bank of Chelsea, the doors of which were closed last night. was due.t to excessive loans made to officers and directors of the Bank, it became known today that the prin- cipal factor in the suspension of the Bank was the large indebtedness on the part of its president, Sylvester B. Hinckley.
 This indebtedness is unofficiaIly es- timated at from S300,000 to S50,000, but the statements made today by the directors of the bank, indicate that Presiden Hinckley has transferred to the institution his equity in large real estate holdings, which, it was expect ed, would provide for payment in full of all deposito-s.
 President Hinckley is said to be fa- tally i'll at his home in Newton.
 DeveloDments today indicated that Mir. Hinckley was involved in exten- siye real estate transactions from which he expected to realize splen- did profits for the bank as well as for himself The failure of his plans, in connection with his illness, as well as dissatisfaction on the part of at least one of the directors with the nature of some of the papers placed with the bank as collateral, accounts fer the closing of the bank.
 Examiner Ewer has been appointed temporary receiver by the comptroller.
 Director Martin. who was said to be responsible for the investigation which closed the bank. said today that he had discovered things Thich led him to make the Investigation. As a result of it he obtained from Presi. dent Hinckley title for he bank in certain real estate in Back Bay and Brighton held by Hinckley. When pressed fer statement as to what in particular attracted his notice, MT , Martin said that paper which he did net consider genuine commercial paper was being handled. When ask1d if this paper was signed by fictitious E names Mir. Martin said:

Jars Used in the Experiments.

so that no air will return to the jar,
and again exhaust your lungs and re-
peat the process of drawing the air
from the jar.
Now, still pinching the rubber tube,
or applying pinchcock, turn the jar
upside down and place the end of the
rubber tube in glass of water. When
you release the tube the water will
squirt up through the jet and your
fountain will play in the jar. 1t is the
outside pressure on the water in the
glass that forces the spray into the
vacuum of the bottle.
Instead of exhausting the air from
the jar, here is way to produce the
fountain outside of it, says Peoples
Home Journal Reverse the glass
tube SO that the jet will be outside
and the other end near the bottom
of the jar. Pour water into the jar
until it is about two-thirds higher than
the end of the tube in the jar Fit
the rubber tubing over the jet and
blow into the jar, thus condensing the
air. Pinch the tube while you again
fill the lungs and blow again into the
jar Now quickly pull the tubing from
the jet, and the water will squirt out,
producing a fountain. This time it is
the pressure of the condensed air in
side the jar that forces the water out.
In the same jar place vaseline bot
tie with a piece of thin rubbe" cloth
stretched over the mouth, and tied in
place. Now, instead of the long glass
tube, use a smaller one, and if you
will exhaust the air from the jar as
you did in the first fountain expert
ment the rubber will rise like a bal
loon, because the air in the small bot
tie will try to get out to fill the
vacuum you have produced.
Now, if you will blow into the rub
Der tube, as you did in the other foun-
tain experiment, the rubber will bulge
downward into the small bottle, con-
densing the air there. By fitting the
vaselne bottle as you did the outer
one, with a glass jet, and placing wa
ter in it, and then exhausting the air
from the outer jar, you will produce
a miniature fountain in the jar from
the smaller bottle.

A NEW BOX KITE.
How to Construct It and Fly It suo.
cessfully.

One of the very best fun-makers
boy can have for the September days
is box kite, and the chap who owns
one will always be popular among his
playmates and never lack for COM
pany when he goes out to fly it.
Get an old umbrella, four seasoned
hickory sticks, or sticks of some other
tough wood three rect long and a half
inch thick Rip the cover off the UNI
brella, being careful not to tear the
material. Take eight of the ribs, the
short ones that run from the frame
to the stick, and lash their ends to-
gether with copper wire, making two
squares. Now take four of the long
ribs and break them each in half,
thus getting eight more pieces the
size of those you have just fixed. Lash
these eight new ones together in the
same way, making two squares each
of four wires.
Now lash one of your hickory sticks
by one end to the corner OF one or
your two first wire squires and fasten
the other end of the stick to corner
of its mate. Place the other three
sticks in position in the other corners
of the two squares and fasten them
firmly by flashing them to the cor
ner of it's mate. Place the other three
of the two squares and fasten them
firmly by lashing them to the corner
and sides of the square with fine cop
per wire.
Now for your second set of squares
made from the more pliable ribs OF
the umbrella: These slip outside of
the framework you have made and
are placed one foot from either end
so that there will also be foot be-
tween them, providing you have made
your sticks three feet long. When
these are firmly wired in place you are
ready for your kite covering, which is
the covering you have ripped from
the old umbrella. This is placed
around either end, as shown in the
illustration, and firmly sewn in place
along all four edges of each square.
Be sure and use heavy linen thread
in doing this, and it is all the better
if your thread be waXed. Your kite
is ready to fly as soon as you fasten
tall on it.
Now make free" kite of it, which
means a kite which will sail away
without a string, explains the Peoples
Home Journal. Get four more long
umbrella wires and fasten them to the
inner sides of your wire squares on
the framework as shown in the pic.

Schools to Teach MILLING.

Recently several schools have been
established in Russia, modelled largely
after the more successful schools in
Germany, for the education of millers.
The course of instruction, besides the
Russian language, includes the fol-
lowing subjects: Mathematics, phys
les, electro-technics, technology, chem
istry, machine building, milling, mill en-
cheering. drawing, bookkeeping. The
schools are divided into three grades
or classes. and the pupils spend one
year in each class, the complete
course extending over three years. Pu-
pills who attend milling school for
two years are obliged to serve only
the same period in the army, instead
of serving the customary four years.
while students who have passed
through the complete course are
obliged to serve only one year in the
army -Consnlar Ranorta-

HIS RADICAL VIEWS
BRIEF LECTURE BY M'DoNALD,
THE lcoNocLAsT.
His Ideas on the Subject OF the Do
mestic Differences Of the O'Hooli-
hans Are Interesting II
Not Instructive.

Mcdonald was known among his
friends as an iconoclast. His greatest
delight was to smash images. One of
his particular cronies was Perkins
When Perkins wanted q little enter
tainment in the evening he had a way
of getting few congenial spirits
around table in cafe and after a
few round of drinks had percolated
through their systems he would bring
up some abtruse subject and hear Nc
Donald's radical views. He always
felt sure that Mcdonald would take
the opposite side from the generally
accepted view of any subject.
1t was at one of the usual evening
gatherings when the circle of init
mates were seated in their usual cozy
corner When Perkins noticed Nc
Donald finish his fourth rickey he laid
down an afternoon paper he had been
glancing over and remarked:
Il see fellow named O'Hoolihan
has been fined for beating his wife. l
think any man who would beat his
wife ought to be tied up to lamp
post and given about Sc lashes on his
bare back"
Mcdonald assumed an aggressive
attitude at once and hastily swallowed
something in his throat.

EIGHT MONTHS UNDER SNOW.
Pansies Kept Green and Fresh
Through Alaskan Winter.

The first SHOWS of last September
caught the pansy bed at the expert
ment station in full bloom. This
spring when the snow disappeared
the plants were found green and fresh
looking, with buds and half-open bios
SONS showing in their natural pur-
pies and yellows. A week later the
buds began to open. The blossoms
though a trifle smaller than normal
are perfect in shape and color, and
show no evidence of their eight

This is especially remarkable, in
view of the fact that the past winter
was the coolest ever recorded on the
Yukon. Readers will remember that

January showed an average mini

as to leave no intervening or waste
portions, thus reducing wasteage to
a minimum.
On large roller he secures a Sc
ries of blades, which are shaped to
form the figures desired. The designs
are arranged on the roller so that
after running it over a sheet of dough
the designs will be continuous, like a
sheet of wall paper. The adjacent
edges of the figures meet, leaving no
waste dough between them. The ne
cessity of removing intervening por-
tons is avoided, the amount of dough
not cut into cakes being reduced to a

SUCCESS WHICH ENDURES.
1t Can Be Secured Only by the Sterling
Quality of Strict Honesty.

Some Young men are reluctant to
accept, as the most vital truth in life,
the most absolute honesty is the only
kind of honesty that succeeds in BUSH
ness. 1t isn't question of religion,
or religious beliefs. Honesty does not
depend upon any religious creed, or
dogma. that was ever conceived. 1t is
question of young mans own con-
science, says the New York Weekly.
He knows what is right, and what is
wrong. And yet, simple as the matter
is, it is astonishing how difficult it is
of understanding. An honest course
in business seems too slow to the av-
erage young man. Il can't afford to
plod along. l must strike, and strike
quickly" is his sentiment
All, yes, my friend, but not dishon-
estly. No young man can afford to
even think of dishonesty. Success on
honorable lines may sometimes seem
slower in coming, but when it does
come it exceeds in permanency all
the so-called successes obtained by
other methods To look at the methods
of others is always mistake.
The successes of to-day are not CIV
en- to the imitator, but to the orig
inator. 1t makes no difference how
other men may succeed-their success
is theirs, and not yours. You cannot
partake of it. Every man is law
unto himself.
The most absolute integrity is the
one-the only sure foundation OF
success. Such success. is lasting.
