NEW YORK STATE BANK
DID NOT OPEN DOORS

bank. When the closing was an
nounced there were seventy-fye depos-
itors waiting, some of whom had beer
standing for several hours in the ex-
IRENE cold.
Due to Former Failure.
The troubles of the Oriental date
from the failure of the Borough bank
of Brooklyn, to which the Oriental had
loaned $25O,OOO. The Oriental was
compelled to use about S2,4OO. 900 of
clearing house certificates. When the
clearing house refused to issue any
more certificates to the Oriental. the
depositors began making heavy with.
drawals, taking out about 100000.
Baked on Loan.
Twelve of the leading financial in
situations of the city volunteered yes
terday to assist the distressed institu-
ton to the extent of $1,000 90 cash
providing the directors would become
individually responsible for the loan.
A majority of the directors agreed to
this, but there were some among their
number unable to do so and the plan
failed.
Depositors Will Not Lose.
The directors at a meeting today de-
cided to place the affairs of the bank
in the hands of the state banking de-
partment. Charles e. Levy, one of the
directors, announced that none of the
depositors would suffer loss conse-
quent to the closing

in the hills until late in the sum-
mer, insuring a late and constant
source of supply for the streams
from which hundreds of thou
sands of acres are irrigated.
The reports from the eastern
slope tell another story. On the
east side the winters snow fall
has been unusually light; little
of the snow that did fall has re
mained in the mountains and the
streams are now lower than at
any time since observations were
begun by the geological survey.
There is little prospect of sup
ply of water for irrigation, and
the farmers of the eastern slope
will have to rely upon the spring
and summer rainfall for good
crops.
Some of the correspondents on
the eastern slope have reported
to the survey that many farmers
have found it necessary to irrl-
gate and thus moisten the soil be-
fore they could do their spring
blowing.

SNOW WILL Save
STATES CROPS

Denver, Apr. s.-Millions ot
dollars worth Of snow is stored
in the mountains from which
comes the water to irrigate and
make productive the fruit farms
and ranches of the western slope
of Colorado. In no other year
has there been a more favorable
out look for the men whose pros
perity is dependent upon the We
ter that comes from the snow i'll
the hills, and so far as may be
judged at this time, enormous
crops will reward the men who
have lands under the ditch AMI
whose success is of enormous ben
eft to the entire state.
Sentinels posted by the United
States government along every
stream and in the mountain rang
es of the state have just made
their reports to the Denver Office
Of the water resources branch Of
the United States geological sur
vey, and all the watchers on the
western slope tell the same glad
dening story of prosperity for
the farmers assured by the water
supply.
Careful records are kept by the
agents Of the geological survey,
showing the daily flow of water in
every stream in the state, and at
the end Of each month detailed
reports Of the snowfall and the
depth Of snow in the mountains
are made. The reports for March
are now at hand, and they are
the most encouraging in many
years.

all-absorbing subject, among them
being the story of the youthful
voter in the west precinct.
While the election board was

and the gate stood open, in walk

challenged. With the air of So
ciety matron, the little tot walked
to the nearest judge and, looking
as if Just little overcome by the
situation, whispered, 81 want to
vote" With all the gravity the
Judge could command he folded
a pretty yellow sample ballot and
showed the aspiring little miss
where to vote. Standing in a
chair she was able to reach the
shelf in booth and in few min
utes announced, GIVE mixed it
all over; is that enough ="
Assured that she had done
quite the proper thing and after
having the corner pasted in reg

Papa Dougan she had cast her

Now that the municipal cleo
tion is over there are plenty of
people who can explain to you
just why and how it all happen-
ed. The result. they declare is
but a natural sequence to the
events of the past few weeks.
Everything is fully explained by
these wiseacres as the natural re
suit of various causes which seem
to them as plain as day.
While the Post is not especially
criticising anyone for the Repub
lican defeat. we have been con-
scious throughout the campaign
of several conditions which have
had much to do with the result
Both sides had placed good
tickets in the field and it was ex-
pected that the result would be
close and would depend much on
the work done on election day,
but this seems to have been an
unwarranted assumption.
The rain in the forenoon delay
ed the voting somewhat, but not
withstanding this, the total vote
was among the largest ever poll
ed in Glenwood, being 218 in the
west and 500 in the east precinct.
making total of 908 votes.
The local option vote, while
Aot large, was greater than som"

smaller than looked for by the

admitted, however, that the sa-
loon forces were greatly exercised
over the matter and lost no op-
portunity to make votes for their
cause. That they succeeded even
beyond their most sanguine ex-
pectations is generally confessed
by the dealers in wet goods
themselves.

WEDDING ETIOUFT.

So strictly defined are the lines
for even the simplest wedding that
it is easy to conduct such an affair
in perfect accord with etiquet.
All the rules Of polite society
should be observed, as only in this
way can one avoid giving offense
where none is intended, making enc
mics at the time of all others T,2cn
friends should be sought.
There are SO many inquiries con-
corning the proper dress for the
bridegroom at the wedding ceremony
that think it we'll to explain that it
all depends upon the hour. For a
full-dress evening affair ne wears
full evening dress-black swallow
tail' coat, black trousers, white
waistcoat, tie, shirt and gloves.
For noon or afternoon service he
wears a frock coat, a double-breasted
white duck or pique waistcoat, trou-
sers of some dark striped material,
patent-leather shoes, white silk Ascot
tie and a boutonniere, larger than for
evening.
When the bride wears a travelling
gown for a morning wedding he wears
a cutaway instead of a frock coat,
gray trousers, colored tie and tan or
gray gloves, although he wears no
gloves if the bride is without.
For a large reception the bride and
bridegroom stand in line, brides
maids next, then the parents of the
bride and next the parents of the
groom. The ushers take each guest;
in turn down the line, the guest say
ing a word or two or merely bowling
to all the receiving party. The
guests should then go at once to,
where the refreshments are served,
leaving room for others.
At quiet home affair the guests Of
fer their good wishes as soon as the
couple turn around, then all go to
the dining room, where, for the few,
seats are usually placed around,
though not at, the table.-Pittsbur

A FATAL MISTAKE.

A great many people seem to think
that the marriage ceremony absolves
them from all further courtesies and
attentions to the person whom they
have we'd
After that they are always in negli-
gee, both as to manners and clothes,
when they are at home.
This is a fatal mistake. Because
a woman is married is no excuse for
her going untidily about the house
and telling her husband home truths
that hurt his vanity. Because a
woman is his wife gives a man no
right to say things to her he would
not dare to say to any other lady who
possessed a big able-bodied brother
Good manners are the preservative
of peace and concord, and are war
ranted to keep happiness in any eli
mate.
The problem of how to be happy
though married is really no problem
at all. No mystery should ever be
made of it, says Home Notes.
1t is merely fair dealing in fair
partnership-Siving the other party
the same privileges and perquisites
you assume for yourself, and allow
ing the person you love as much con-
sideration and civi!ity as you would
show a stranger.

ANGELS IN HEAVEN.

"Heayen will be populated mostly
by women, if the present ratio in the
Christian churches OF the United
States is maintained" said Judge
Ulysses L. Marvin, Of Akron, Ohio
during an interview with the Wash
ington Post.
There can be no doubt" he went
on, that in our churches women pre-
dominate, both in their influence and
work However, l Go not mean to
intimate that tecause Heaven will be
populated mostly by women, men will
predominant in hell There are many
good men outside the church and
when the final roll call is made it
may be found that many of them will
join the ranks OF those who are ad-
mitted to the realms above. | be-
lieve, though, that the man who is
in the church is a better man than
he would be if he were not in it. The
church is growing stronger, and its
influence is widening. It has not de-
