FORCED TO CLOSE
FIRST NATIONAL BANK OF FORT
SCOTT, KAN, GOES TO
THE WALL.
DEPOsITORs WILL Be PAID
Grant Hornaday, President Of Instltu
ton, Pledges His Fortune for
Their Beneft-May Affect
other Banks.

Fort Scott, Kan, Nov. 21.-The First
National bank Of Fort Scott, known
throughout Kansas better than under
Its real name as Grant Hornadays
bank" failed to open its doors Friday
morning. Hornaday who has the repu-
tation of being a millionaire, Is wide
ly known throughout the state as a
politician.
So closely identified is the bank
with the business affairs Of the city
that 1t feared that a number Of busi-
ness houses will 60 under as a result
of the failure. Several small banks
in adjoining towns also may be af-
fected. For several days there had
been ugly stories concerning the con-
dition of the bank afloat, as the notice
indicates.
In statement made Friday morn
ing, Grant Hornaday said that the
condition of the bank was such that a
so per cent dividend could be paid by
January and the rest wsthin the next
three or four months.
1--WE have suffered from a run for
two days." said Mr.. Hornaday, (which
ran our cash down 100000, leaving us
about $4,000 cash on hand The
community was frightened, and there
was every indication that the run
would increase and probably would
exhaust our cash.
Therefore, for the protection OF our
customers, the board Of directors early
Friday morning decided that the wise
hing to do was to suspend. We have
Is per cent of the deposits on hand
and by January we ought to pay so
per cent dividend. The balance ought
% be paid within the next three or
four months.
Nobody except the stockholders
will suffer. do not owe the bank one

oNh one-half the bank, and we will
be the heavy losers. Every dollars
worth Of property that have will
stand for the banks debts.
ave have had a continuous loss Of
deposits since the panic. A year ago
last July we had on deposit $3.50, 900.
We collected and paid out until we
had reduced the deposits to less than
100000 If this run of the last two
days had not been precipitated we
could have liquidated the hank, col
lected all notes and paid all depositors
81 will wind up this and see that
everyone gets his money. Then l will
make plans for the future"
The capital stock of the bank is
100000. The surplus is $4,000. The
deposits are $4,000. There was
$4,000 cash in exchange and $780,
900 in Fort Scott city bonds. There
is enough good paper, Mr.. Hornaday
said, collectible between now and
January l to exceed one-half the de-
posits.
The United States government has a
deposit of $4,000 in the bank, and
Fort Scott and Bourbon county have
$4,000 more in the institution. OF the
deposits, about $1OS,OOO is time de-
post, the entire remainder, except
ing the stock, being subject to check.

kind of food it is something to speak
out about.
A N. Y. lady and her young son had
such an experience and she wants
others to know how to get relief. She
writes:
For about fifteen months my little
boy and myself had suffered with sour
stomach. We were unable to retain
much of anything we ate.
After suffering in this way for so
long / decided to consult specialist
in stomach diseases. Instead of pre-
scribing drugs, he put us both on
Grape-Nuts and we began to improve
Immediately.
1T was the key to new life. I
found we had been eating too much
heavy food which we could not digest
In few weeks after commencing
Grape-Nuts l was able to do my house
work. l wake in the morning with a
clear head and feel rested and have no
sour stomach, My boy sleeps well and
wakes with laugh.
I'VE have regained our lost weight
and continue to eat Grape-Nuts for
