"Eat Currants"

Led by Sir Francis Laking, King
Edwards physician, the pure food en-
thusiasts Of Great Britain are making
a remarkable campaign of education
in favor of dried currants. Chemists
and dietists extol the highly nourish-
ing and wholesome qualities of the
fruit, which is shown to contain 81
percent more nutriment than beef.
Unsweetened currant bread has be-
come almost as common as ordinary
bread on the tables of rich and Door
alike adding three parts of currants
to seven parts of dough doubles the
nutritive value of the loaf, makes it
far more agreeable to the taste, and
saves butter is the way the argument
runs. One enterprising weekly lately
held a competition in which there
were thousands of contestants for
the prizes offered for the best loaf of
currant bread. Another discovery is
that currants are a beauty food"
producing clear and healthy COM

MONEY And BRIDE
ARE BOTH GONE
ONE OF THE FARGO FAIR ONES
LEAVES DEVILS LAKE MAN
IN LURCH.

Fargo, N. D., Oct 21,-The bud Of
romance was nipped by chilling frost
in Judge Ryan's court room yesterday
when an expectant bridegroom was
left waiting at the church" his bride
to-be failing to appear on scheduled
time-in fact failing to appear at ALL
Ruff T. Long of Devils Lake was
the wronged man and a certain wo-
man in the hollow, known as Jennie
Olson, was the tickle fiance 1t devel-
oped that Long lost more than his
bride. Saturday afternoon she asked
him for $45 with which to buy a
trousseau and she kept the money,
though not her appointment.
It happened thusly: Ruff, came
down from Devils Lake few days ago
after a season in the harvest fields.
Like a prudent man he saved a roll of
long green" On his sight seeing ex-
pedition Long wandered through the
hollow and there became acquainted
with Jennie. Long liked her style and
proposed marriage. Jennie seemed
willing and Saturday afternoon Long
procured a license from Judge Han
som
The marriage was to be Sunday at
10 a. m. and Judge Ryan was asked
to officiate. Sunday morning Long ap-
peared before the judge and members
of the police force gathered about to
witness the ceremony But 10! the
bride cameth not. Ten minutes elaps-
ed and then on Chief Wade's suggest
ion a policeman was dispatched in
search of the prospective bride. After
a dilligent search he returned and re-
ported that she had left her familiar
haunts and could not be found.
Long had license but no bride and
the marriage had to be postponed
Now Long is hooking for Jennie and
incidentally that $45. But he is griev-
ed over the loss of Jennie more than
the money IF she had wanted more
money shecould have had it, he sor.
rowfully told Judge Ryan
What did you want to marry a wo-
man of that sort for?" inquired the
Judge.
We'll, thought could reform her."
replied Long. He knows better now.

STATE OFFICIAL IN CHARGE
kniekerbooker Trust Company to Be
Investigated.

Investigated.
New York, Oct. 24.-Acting State
superintendent of Banks Skinner has
taken possession Of the Offices OF the
Knfckerbocker Trust company. Mr..
Skinner said there would be no fur
Knickerbocker Trust company until
he has thoroughly investigated Its
condition. After taking charge Of the
company Mr.. Skinner made the fol-
lowing statement:
Under advice OF the attorney gen
eral have taken possession Of the
Kniokerbocker Trust company and its
branch Offices. The support to the
institution which was expected has
not been furnished. A bank examiner
is in charge of each office. Payments
will be received on obligations due to
the Trust company, but no payment
will be made by the examiner in
charge"
The scenes about the various offices
of the Knickerbocker Trust company
early IN the day indicated the alarm
felt by Che public. A line OF $50 per-
sons extended from the main Office
along Thirty-fourth street when a po-
lice captain announced in the corridor
that the officials had decided to make
no payments The depositors were
reluctant to accept this and demanded
to know if it was official. Upon as
surances that it was authorized by
the officials about 100 Of the depos-
itors departed, but at least 200 still
waited in line.
In the corridors Of the Office of the
Trust Company Of America there were
500 persons when the hour for begin
ming business arrived. It was almost
impossible for any more to enter.
President Thorne said at that hour
that he hoped to meet all demands
unless the depositors came in too
large numbers. He said the company
had not asked for assistance.

UNANIMOUS VOTE IS
 CAST FOR HIGH SCHOOL
Final Result of Election Shows GA avoring Proposition,
 None Opposed.

That the people of Bisbee school precinct were unanimously in ftVor of having a regularly established high school in the district seems evident from the returns of the election which was held yesterday to decide the ques- ton. The final count showed 64 in favor of the proposition and not a single vote in opposition. The vote was very light owing to the fact that the result was foregone conclusion.
 Early yesterday morning a number of young ladies who have had one or two terms in the high school which has been maintained in Bisbee, went among their friends soliciting them to go to the Central School house and vote sn favor of the proposition. Among the public generally, however, there hardly seemed to be any knowl- edge of the fact that there was an election in progress.
 During the morning very few votes were cast, but In the afternoon a number of people appeared at the polls and cast their ballots.
 After the polls closed at 6 o'clock

HOSE TEAM WILL
 COME HERE JULY 1
Chief Henkel Reports RfogreSS At Meeting Last Night Preparations for Big Event We'll Under Way.

At meeting of the general Fourth of July Committee held last evening at the City Hall, c. NJ. Henkel. chief of the Bisbee Fire Department, re- ported that he was in receipt of a communication from Douglas, saying that in all probability two crack hose teams would be in Bisbee on July 4th to compete for the $450 in prizes for hose team racing on that occasion. In addition to hearing from Douglas, Chief Henkel has sent invitations to the hose teams of Tombstone, Cana nea, Tucson and Phoenix, inviting the racing teams from those cities to come to Bisbee and participate in the tournament.
 A new event was added to the list of sports at the meeting last night. Fifty dollars was apportioned for a shot putting contest and thirty dollars fixed as the first prize.
 The finance committee reported that little more than three thousand dol lars had been raised by subscription and that the committee expected to increase this amount during the com ing week. The committee on arrange ments are preparing the program in detail, which will be presented at the next meeting of the committee which was fixed for Monday night at s o'clock.
 Jack McGregor, in behalf of Mo Gregor & Graham, stated to the con- mittee that it was proposed to have a baseball game and cowboy events at Don Luis park on July 4th, and offered to include those attractions as a part of the Bisbee celebration, and wished to have the events at Don Luis adver- tised by the 4th of July committee. It was decided that for the reason that the money for defraying the expenses of the celebration in Bisbee had been contributed by Bisbee business men. that no expenditure of any kind should be made towards advertising events at Don Luis.
 A great deal of interest has been created over the miners drilling con test which is limited to amateurs of Cochise county and Cananea. The committee ruled last evening that no miner who had ever drilled in a con test for a purse or prize would be permitted to drill in Bisbee on the 4th of Jnly The usual rules govern ing drilling contests will prevail
 Assurances have already been re ceived from Douglas that the Copper City will send a large crowd on July ith. and a biz delegation is expected from Tombstone and Cananea, who are expected to furnish 8 hose team and several entries for the drilling contests from each place.

JULY l, RAILROADS
 TO KEEP SAME ACCOUNTS

WASHINGTON, June 15.-The h. terstate Commission today promul- gated the uniform system of accounts for Railroads. provided for under the railroad rate law passed at the last session of congress. The system will go into effect July l, governing opeTat- ing revenues and operating expenses. Thereafter the railroads will be com peiIed to file monthly reports.
 The method adopted is intended to secure a correct system of net rev enues from operation, and is expected to result in keeping the cost Of i'm movements out of the operating ex- penses. therefore excluding them from the cost of performing current business. The expense of soliciting traffic is separated from the expense of hauling traffic. Construction ac- counts are to he SO drawn that cur rent record of the physcai value of the railway property win always be pos sibie.
