Douglas ....... 6s3,91e %
This city is really entitled to a show
ing of about 100000. as about that
amount is represented In monies at that
time on deposit In the closed Globe Ma
tional bank. But the showing Is very
ereditable for all the cities named, and
considering population Globe ranks with
the best. Large sums belonging to the
territory are on deposit in the banks at
Phoenix and Prescott. Dividing this
money equally among the five first cities
named there would not be a great deal
Of difference in the amount Of deposits.
Bisbee on an equitable division Of these
funds would undoubtedly lead.
In examining the statements of the
territorial banks, tho pleasant discovery
is made by comparison that the bank OF
the Old Dominion Commercial company
OF Globe is the strongest in Arizona.
II has surplus Of SIS, 456.28, which Is
greater by 5,45e.2s than that Of any
other territorial bank. The Old Domin-
ion also excells in ono other respect
During the past three months 1t has in
creased its deposits more than 100000,
and that In the face Of the fact that two
national banks have reopened In the
city during that time, and that an en-
ttrely new bank has thrown open its
doors for business. In order that a
wrong impression may not be created
by this statement, the Silver Belt wishes
Ia state that the reopened banks have
been gaining steadily IN the volume OF
their deposits, and that the Old Do
minion simply shared with the others
In the good things that came along with
q return Of full confidence. The bank s
increase Of deposits means that the days
Of the safe deposit box and the tin can
are over in Globe, and that Globe people
are allowing their savings to 60 into
legitimate channels again. AL in all,
there Is much encouragement in this
last oficial statement of the condition
Of Arizona banks and the figures are
worthy Of careful study.

A lei CAPTURE.

Mantador-Frank Tiegs, Charles
Witt and w. F. Vedder captured a
wolf in a rather unusual manner
while driving to town. While in the
neighborhood Of the Keystone bridge
they noticed IN animal caught in the
barbed wire fence by the roadside,
and on investigation it proved to be
a female coyote. She was caught by
one leg behind the top and second
wire and held so securely that escape
was impossible, though her leg had
been broken in the attempt. It is
supposed she tried to Jump the fence
and fell short, thus becoming en-
tangled. The neckyoke was taken
from the rig and the animal was cas-
lily dispatched. The wolves have been
very numerous and troublesome in
that section the past winter, destroy
ing chickens and other small farm ami.
mails. The present system Of secur-
ing the state bounty is so cumbersome
that the farmers complain 1t does not
pay for the bother of securing it, even
after the wolves are captured.

of his mother, and that his goods and
stock had been turned owe to Noah
for disposal.
Noah disposed Of two loads Of
grain in Kenmare and one at Ken
naston. On Sunday a Mr.. Johnson,
q neighbor of the murdered man, but
not a relative, became suspicious, as
his friend had said nothing to him
about his departure. The sale of
erain and horses looked strange to
him, and he asked for an investiga-
ton. The two men arrested
and taken to Kenmare, where a pre-
liminary hearing was given them on
the charge Of stealing the wheat.
In the meantime Postmaster Dobbs
Of Kennaston made a thorough in
vestigation Of the house and on a

which rouse his suspicion. This was
torn up and beneath it was found
blood stains over a trap door leading
into the cellar. In the cellar was

pearance it is really very simple in
construction and quite within the
scope Of the home dressmaker. The
sleeves are cut in n piece with the
front and back. They are kimono
style and exceedingly graceful. Braid
ornaments may effect the front closing,
or some contrasting material or rich
trimming may be used as a facing,
and the fronts rolled back to form
revers. Biscuit-colored broadcloth,
trimmed with soutache braid or heavy
lace, would make up handsomely for
an evening coat. A more ~serviceable
