SHE Is A BANK PRESIDENT.
Girard Woman Who Believes She II
the Only Official of the Kind.

Chicago, Jan. 14.-The only woman
bank president in the United States is
in Chicago. She is Mrs. S. Alice Hald-
erman, of Girard. Kan. and has been
the guest of her sister. Miss Jane
Adams, of Hull House.
1t is two years since Mrs. Halder-
man assumed control of the bank. Her
husband had been its president, for
two years. 1t was a private bank
then, but afterwards was Incorporated
as state institution. and Mrs. Hald-
erman was elected president

ton. 1 see. no reason, however, why
women should not be bankers. 1 did
not choose the work. of course. 1t
came to me. When my husband died
it seemed necessary that I should go
on with the work of the bank. So 1
did. That is about all there is to tell
about 1t.
probably no more, than the average
woman knows of financial matters.
The only training I had was that
gained from my participation in vari-
GUS kinds of public life. I had been a
member of the school board. of the
library board and of charitable So
cieties. 1 think all such work tends to
make one businesslfke in methods.
But of loans and bonds and such
things 1 had only a general knowl-
edge.
my way of familiarizing myself
with the work was not complicated. I
simply attended to each matter as it
was brought up, going into it as deep
~ as was possible. The fact that the
cashier and the other employees of the
bank were most competent and trust
worthy men made my work easier
than it would have otherwise been.
"Girard is a town of about 5000 in
habitants, and Is very progressive.
Our bank is the oldest in the county,
having been established thirty-f1ve
years ago. There are other banks in
the town, and rather feared the COM

More Gold and a Larger Volume

Chicago, Jan. 14.-A dispatch to the
Tribune from washington says:
1.-The United States is the wealthiegA
nation in the world said close friend
of President Roosevelt yesterday. who
had just gone over. a remarkable offi-
ciaI report, which is soon to be made
public. He added:
I'm brief span of young life this in
FAINT nation has broken all records re-
lating to the accumulation OF riches
We are beginning to think in billions
instead of millions. Take it any way
you like. our affluence, outstrips any
thing ever known before.
"Our country has more actual money,
more gold, larger volume or EXPORTS
greater banking facilities richer farms
more productive mines. more railroaus'
more internal commerce, more million-
aires. more well-to-do tradesmen, mora
independent farmers, more highly paid
laborers, and greater distribution OF
luxuries than any other has enjoyed
since time began
To say that the total valuation of the
wealth of the United States is 1O7 billion
dollars is not understandable, as a hum
dred billion dollars is such pile OF
money that the mind simply can not
grasp it's meaning on the instant.
Probably the best way of Illustrating

his own. Last year there was more than
$25,0o0,000 in excess of expenditures.

POPULATION OF LAWRENCE.
The New Directory of the City Shows
1895 Inhabitants.

Lawrence, Kan. Jan. 1.-THE new d.
rectory of the city of Lawrence for 1907
has just been issued. The book which
has been compiled by r. L. Polk & Co,
experienced and capable directory peo-
pie is an especially fine one, as 1t is
evident that it has been prepared with
much care and forethought.,
This is the second edition of PolksS
directory of Lawrence and. is indeed an
Improvement over last years. In this
book not only the husbands name, bdt
also that of the w1fe's Is given The
white people are also separated from:
the colored by the letter g. being placed
after every colored persons name.
1t reveals some interesting and AS
founding information regarding the pop
ulation of Lawrence. This is generally
conceded to be not exceeding 1900.
This is the figure, given by the city as
SCISSOR and includes only the people liv-
ing right in Lawrence or rather those
who reside in what might be called the
thickly populated. portion of the town.
The new directory says that Lawrence
has population of 1905, This figure
is obtained by some careful counting.
Lawrence has a large adult population.
There are in the volume 1878 names,
which multiplied: by % to represent
married women and children which is
| the average per cent, indicates a popu-
| lation of 1885 for Lawrence, and viii
| include the suburbs. This figuring would
give an average of three children to
| every family, which are about the pro-
per figures.

MIR. ANTHONY DENIES.

Charles Curtis will be elected to the
senate of the United States on January
e.. when the law provides that the
house and senate shall meet in joint
session for the purpose of choosing a
senator.
The Democratic members of the
legislature will cast their votes for
William A. Harris, or some other
Democrat Harris will probably be
the man. A caucus is to be held TO
decide what will be done.
The chances are that a primary
election will be held in the First dis
trict to select Curtis successor. Cur
tbs has expressed himself as favorable
to primaries, and the idea is popular
with some of the other candidates.
The old Curtis crowd, now delivered
to d. r. Anthony, will favor holding
the primaries, or the convention as
soon as possible.
Mr.. Curtis new term as representa-
tive in congress from the First dis
trict, to which he was elected at the
last election, does not begin until
March 4, and Curtis can, not resign
that office until his term expires.

SAVING UP LOGS.
A steam sawmilI Doing Great work
In Kingmen County.

There is a steam saw mill in opera
ton out in Dresden township, saving
up some of the big cotton wood trees
that have grown there since the first
settlement of Kingman county, the
twigs- from which they grew having
been planted by the early settlers. One
gentleman is having a lot Of maple
trees sawed up into flooring and finish
ing lumber, which he proposes to Use
in finishing the interior Of fine new
residence he is having erected on his
farm. The person operating the saw
mill, in telling of the matter was not
able to remember the gentleman's
name, but says he lives some few miles
northwest of Cunningham on the head
waters of the Minnesota.
To a person who was familiar with
that section of the country say twenty
or twenty-five years ago, and who has
not been there since. it will seem al
most like fairy tale to read of saw
mill being in operation up In that Sec
there, some of them being more than
two feet in diameter; but they are
there, nevertheless, and thousands OF
them, too. and in fact there is not a
single township in the county where
trees of such dimensions may not be-
found and in great plenty. The lumber
is what is principally known as 'di-
mension stuff and is being used for
inside work in barn building and for
cribs, fences, etc. The price charged
for saving such lumber is 20 cents per
hundred. This is the same mill that
was operated number of months ago
down in Richland and Canton town
ships.-Kingman Leader Courier. -
