Caused by the Insolvency
Of AttIeborO Bank.
Jewellers Can't Get Money For
PayroI|s--- Ditto.
Providence Banks viii Help Them
Out During Crisis.

North Attleboro, Mass, Dec. 20.-The
made last night by Albert II.
Virgins. president of the jewelers., Ma
t,onal Bank of this town, that the insti-
tuition was insolvent, has caused much
uneasiness among the business interests
of the place, as most of the manufactur-
ing Jewelers. had heir funds on deposit
at the suspended bank. The outlook Is
serious as there are payrolls to be met,
while on the first of the year many bills
fall due.
Three firms did not pay off their hands
on Wednesday. as usual, but it was ex-
planned that they did not understand
the condition of affairs at the bank
in time to get the necessary money from
some other source.
The firm of W. II. Ball & Co. of At
tleboro Falls, whose funds were on de-
post at the jewelers. National Bank,
secured sufficient funds for their pay
roll needs in Providence yesterday. and
one of the members of the firm was in
formed that the Providence banks stood
ready to furnish the jewelers. of North
Attleboro and Attleboro Falls with suffi-
cient money to tide them over the
crisis.
The town: of North Attleboro has $780,,
900 tied up in the suspended institu-
ton. On Wednesday the Attleboro saw
ings Bank offered to lend enough money
to the town to help it out while the
banks affairs were being Strengthened
out Yesterday was payday for the
towns employees, and the selectmen at
meeting last night voted to take adj
vantage of the offer. and as a pre-
liminary step, $500 was borrowed at six
per cent
| The town of Plainsville has an its
funds, $500 held mp by the suspension
and unless the town treasurer, Walter
E. Barden, can procure more money than
| he has on hand at the present time, the
school teachers and other town en-
ployes whose monthly pay is due to-
day, will probably have to get along
as best as they can until after Christmas.
The amount of pay due is $3.50, while the
town has on hand only $215. There are
eight school teachers, and the amount
of money on hand will pay only six
of them.

Beasts That Weep.

Animals are said to weep from va
rious causes. Grief at the loss of
young ones and mates makes the dog,
horse, elephant, rat, bear, deer, mon
key, donkey, mule, cattle, camel and
giraffe shed tears
Sobbing has been proved in the par
rot, though this may be mimicry. The
stag at bay and the Gagged rat have
been seen to weep while monkeys have
wept when pitied or from terror.
The elephant has wept at the loss
of it's liberty, and in some cases also
from vexation. The dread of punish
ment has caused captive chimpanzees
and other apes to weep.
Joy, pain, fatigue, thirst, i'll usage
sympathy, old age, approaching death
and pettishness have all drawn tears
from animals or at least driven them
to a fearful state.-Exchange

BURNS
AS HE DESCENDS.
Gene Raymond Extinguishes Flames as
He Falls With observation-disclosures
in Wheat Field.

NEW YORK, July 16,-Several thou
sand persons saw Gene Raymond, an
aeronaut, make a balloon ascension from
Hillside park, near Passaic n. j., late
on Sunday afternoon. Hanging hori-
zontally from the balloon by two ropes
as it left the ground was a galvanized
iron cannon fourteen feet long and about
three feet in diameter at the mouth.
Raymond was lying fat on his back
in this cannon, with just the tips of his
shoes showing at the opening. Between
his ankles, and right in the mouth OF the
cannon, was a mortar bomb of the kind
used in Fourth of July celebrations to
send up big shower of sparks at night;
The thousands watched the balloon until
it was about 5000 feet
That was to let the aeronaut know it
was time for him to fire" himself from
the cannon. A tiny cloud of black
smoke burst from the lannon's mouth,
and a few seconds later Raymonds,
clinging to the cross bar of his para
chute, shot through the smoke cloud
feet first. OF course only the mortar
bomb had been fired, but it looked as
if the aeronaut had been hurled from
the long iron cylinder by a charge OF
powder. A thinl line of smoke trailed
along in it's downward flight to make
the performance all the more redllsllc.
Amazed at His Antics.
The big crowd applauded, and when
the parachute opened and Raymond be-
gan to do stunts" on the crossbar they
cheered. A brisk southerly breeze car
ried the parachute off in the direction
of Huttley, but the crowd in Hillside
park was able to follow the performer
movements until he was within few
hundred feet of the ground.
They marveed at his daring when he
hung from the bar by one arm. They
could not imagine how any human be-
ing would take the chances Raymond
was taking when he kicked about so
recklessly and slapped his legs. Even
the managers of the show couldn't under
stand his actions, although they
noticed that light smoke cloud tloae~l
along above him.
"a good show, but mighty ticklish,
was the sentiment on the lips of most
of the spectators when the parachute
and performer disappeared from view
behind the tree tops more than mile
away.
Was Burning 5000 Feet.
1t was not until yesterday that it was
learned that Raymond actually caught
fire when he shot out of the balloon. He
alighted in a field, eXtinguished the
flames, and made his way to house
from which he was removed to the hos
pital. Though badly burned, he Will
recover.

Membership of Organization Nearing
100000 Mark, According to Sec
retary's Report.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind, July 15.-The
sixth annual convention Of the Ameri
can Federation of Catholic Societies held
its first business session today. following
the celebration of solemn high mass of
requiem at st. Johns church. The SEES
sol.s are executive. President Edward
Feeney of Brooklyn was in the chair
today. The morning session was de-
voted to the organization of the conyen-
ton, the reading of reports and the APP

The annual report of Anthony Matre,
national secretary, which was read to-
day shows that the federation has been
introduced into forty-three states and
territories. Porto Rico, Hawaii and the
Philippine islands. The total member
ship, says the report, is rapidly nearing
the 100000 mark.
The report points out the results of the
crusade OF the federation against the
ulvorce evil. A uniform divorce law is
favored. The movement for such law
IS gathering force, it is declared.
On the subject of the sanctity of the
Lords day, the reports says that efforts
are being made against employers who
force their employees to perform unneces-
sary labor on Sunday. The attention of
the government was called to the fact
that the Strengthening establishments of
New York carry on the butchering OPP
erations on Sunday and Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson has promised to take
2ction in the matter.
Two plans, says the report, have been
evolved for the formation of Il young
mans national Catholic union, along the
lines of the Y. NJ. G. A. and reports of
the committee having this matter in
charge will be made at this convention.
