 E. Ul P WILLIE

The opening of the Howard house at Kempervi1le Saturday night last was one of the biggest social events in the history of Hot Springs.
 Early in the evening the people who were to go in the big rigs provided by members of the A. B. lodge began to gather at the N. c. store, and by the time all were ready for the start it was found necessary to provide another big sled to accommodate the crowd. Big broad boxes were placed on the sleds and then filled with loose hay and warm robes. The crowd piled into these and were soon started on the way as warm and comfortable as could be. The night was clear and cold, and could not have been better for the ride.
 Considerable trouble was experienced on the slough on account of the glare ice being uneven, which caused the big sleds to continually swing around in front of the horses, making the pro- gress slow, as a result of which it was nearly 10 o'clock when they arrived at their destination.
 When the sleds arrived at Kemper-

MANY ARE COMING

From reports brought to this city every arrival from Fairbanks it is safe to that in the of the next few months there will be large number of people to Hot Springs from that city. % 7@@ &s8a&@~ @E&E
 Many of these men come here either with money of their the representatives of capital and it is tcularly desirable that these should become interested in this district if possible Some will want to buy ground others will be content with lays but in either they should be accommodated if possible This district need more payrol places where the prospector get work in order to grubsake and the only way that is possible present is to interest capital in of the ground In time doubt most of the miners Sullivan will be able to install big plants and put big but present only few have the necessary capital result of which their ground is not worked and the country held back in consequence.
 If some of the present who lack the necessary capital to work their ground they wish would either let
 good lay to with money, sell part of the ground they would henet greatly by the deal we'll as the country at large As general rule it is not the who tight and waits for others to prospect in his cn
 y who is the winner in the end but the man who works his grounds sells usually the better satisfied and the more contented. t.- ..s. -- ..-s =Is ..... .

.EIdOradO Strike
 Was Exaggerated

Herman Willike who, with A. Beck, was reported as having made 8 rich strike on Eldorado creek, was inethe city this week and denies, the authen- tlcity of rhe report.
 While the story as circulated was greatly exaggerated, MT. Willike says that he and his partner have very good prospects and are much encouraged over the outlook, but that they have found nothing to justify stampede to that creek.
 Since the report of thu strike the creek has been visited by 0 large num- Der of men and many claims have been staked, nearly ali of which are associa- tions. Those who are already there are now preparing to sink on their ground, and if the work. which is now planned is done, the paystreak on FL dorado will surely be found before spring. %~t

Every thing was in readiness for the dance, and in an incredibly short time the guests were enjoying the dance to the utmost. The musis was good and the floor was exceptionally easy to dance on considering the fact that it had been laid that very day.
 At F o'clock long table was erected and a substantial lunch was served to those present. .
 Owing to the condition of the ice it was deemed inadYisable to return to Hot Springs until daylight, and as result the start was not made until shortly after o'clock, by which time everybody was thoroughly tired but perfectly happy after the nights enter tainment. s..-.
 There were probably one hundred people present and everybody went away with the best wishes for success of the genial host and hostess who were responsible for the good time had by all.

 The people of this city were very sorry to see Mir. Kain leave this post as he was deservedlN very popular with every body who knew him.

BYERLEY BANK PROMOTER
Postage Stamp Bidder" Plans 94-
Hour Institution.

Samuel Byeriey the express company clerk who
made a small fortune postage stamp BID for
a block of government bonds the time of the
Spanish war. has blossomed out a bank pro-
moter with a plan for the organization of na-
ttonal bank with capital of s2o00G9 and surplus
of S50.eo0 According TO the prospectus the new
bank is to be known as The Twenty-four Hour
National Bank" and is to be in Times Square. As
socated with Byerley in the promotion of the new
institution is William Thomas Carpenter Of No Is
Broadway.
Many merchants and hoteIkeepers in the Times
Square district have been approached with view
to subscribing for the stock of the bank, and
several known TO have shown considerable in
terest in the plan An option desirable site
close TO Broadway and 42d street has also been OBJ
tanned
When the attention Of Charles A Hanna. Ma
tionaI Bank Examiner. called to the printed
subscription blank which the promoters circu-
lating, he at detected clause which would
in all probability prevent the organizers of the
bank from obtaining charter from the Controller
OF the Currency. The subscription price of the
stock is given at $3.50 share, which allows $4,000
promotion fee over and above the $4,000 CAPT
tai and $4,000 surplus. 1t is contrary to the Gus
tom of the federal banking department to allow
any of the money subscribed for the stock Of new
bank to go to the promoters.
The clause in the stock subscription blank which
provides for the promoters nicely reads as fol-
lows: 'It is agreed that the said national bank
ing association shall hold s25 of each subscription
Of $50 for a share of its stock, as surplus. and
that s. from the said subscription for each share
shall be paid for promotion and organization
pense.'
The circular names a well known downtown ma
tiona hank as depository for all funds subscribed
for stock of the new bank pending its actual or
ganfzation. The vce-president of the bank named
as depository said yesterday that he knew moth
ing of the plan. that the promoters had simply
asked permission to deposit subscriptions with his
hank He was not aware that the name of his
bank figured on the stock subscription blanks Of
the new institution
