StrenghtheningN Nevada Banks

A recent Reno, Nevada. dispatch
quotes Governor d. s. Dickerson as de-
claring that he believes the new banking
law passed by the last Legislature will
do much to. put banking in this State
on a higher level and make all Nevada
banks stronger. He recently held a
meeting with the new Banking Com
mission, consisting of S. W. Bedford,
A. B. Witcher, Charles s. Sprague and
Jewett Adams, and discussed the bank
ing situation. Bank Examiner Van
Fleet was also present and advised with
the Bank Commissioners.
They have outlined a plan for the
thorough investigation of the banks
now in disrepute in this State, and will
use every effort to bring the persons re-
sponsible for the defrauding of credit
ors to justice. They will also see that
all other banks live up to the law so
that there will be less probability OF
bank failure in this State in the future.

Joy such as seldom have been
witnessed among this most placid
people. The political significance
of the occurrence lies in the fact
that there is now an heir to the
throne of The Netherlands, a cir
cumstance which greatly enhances
the country's chances for con-
tinued independence. Every
town and village in Holland is
to-day celebrating the long

Prince Henry of Mecklenburg-

trial at Elko last week on a charge OF
stealing horses in that county. Thurs
day afternoon, to the surprise of th'
attorneysf for the State and all interested

guilty and pleaded guilty. 1t is believed
that one of the defendants intended t.,
confess to the crime and testify against
the other two, and that the attorneys
for the defense decided that all three
had better plead guilty. These mel
have been shown to have been mem
bers of an organized gang of hors'

of the city, halhng at the principal squares to make the following
proclamation:
Fellow Citizens: With great joy we announce the news that hei
majesty, by the grace of God, has been delivered of a Princess. The
entire population of The Hague shares the feeling OF deep JOY OF
the Dutch people, and is thankful for the blessing bestowed upon
the royal house and upon the country. May the happy event
strengthen the bonds uniting The Netherlands and the House oil
Orange. Long live the Queen. Long live the Princess OF Orange
Queen Wilhelmina Helene Pauline Maria was born August
81. 1880, and is one of the wealthiest of reigning monarchs.
Holland has the best of reasons for rejoicing over the arrival
of a baby Princess. Not only do the Dutch love their Queen with
an affection that makes her happiness their own, but they have longed
for an heir to the throne in order that their national independence
might be assured by the absence of any pretext for interference IN
the succession on the death of the present Queen.
Comparatively small among continental nations, Holland is SC
rich and its geographical location gives it such a commanding
maritime position that other and bigger nations would be glad o
an excuse to annex the country of dikes and canals, or at least
establish a protectorate.
That is why the new baby's advent is hailed with such ex
'travagant demonstrations of joy; why the Dutch have been juggling
in their wooden shoes wherever the news could reach. No wonder
they are celebrating.

No Lid On Coney Island.

New York.-Two hundred thousand persons, according to estimate, went down to Coney Island to watch the police put on the lid as threatened by Mayor McClellan's recent declara tion that the Sunday closing law would be enforced. Those who ex- pected a clash between the law and the show men were disappointed, for no friction whatever occurred All amusement resorts ran as usual and only six arrests were made during the day. Two of these were peddlers and two were for violation of the ex, else laws. The general gaiety of the island was not disturbed, which leads to the belief that gambling and questionable places alone are to be molested.

THINK HARD 1t Pays to Think About Food.

The minimizing life some people lead often causes trouble and sickness, il. lustrated in the experience of lady in Fond Du Lac. Wis.
 About four years ago I suffered dreadfully from indigestion, always having eaten whatever I liked. not thinking of the digestible qualities. This indigestion caused palpitation of the heart so badly could not walk up a flight of stairs without sitting down once or twice to regain breath and strength.
 q became alarmed and tried dieting, wore my clothes very loose, and many other remedies, but found no relief
 Hearing of the virtues of Grape Nuts and Postum, commenced using them in place of my usual breakfast of coffee, cakes, or hot biscuit, and in one weeks time I was relieved of sour stomach and other ills attending indi- gestion In a months time my heart was performing it's functions naturally and I could climb stairs and hills and walk long distances.
 q gained ten pounds in this short time, and my skin became clear and completely regained my health and strength. I continue to use Grape Nuts and Postum for I feel that owe my good health entirely to their use. There's a Reason"

GEORGIA RAILROAD TIED Up
Management is Not Attempting to Move Trains Until State is Ready
 to Protect Men and Property.


 Augusta, Ga.-The Georgia railroad is completely tied up. The manage ment is not trying to move trains, simply announcing that it has the men, the means and the equipment to proceed and will do so when the state anounces readiness to protect it's property and employees.
 The strikers are standing pat. They assert that they have not been, and won't be parties to any violence. Sympathizers with the strikers, it is set out, have done all the hurt that has been done. General Manager Thomas K Scott made the announce ment that mo trains are moving"
 Gov. Hoke Smith has wired the sheriff of McDuffie county to coop crate with the municipal authorities and to summon all deputies necessary to protect life and property. It is in this county that Thomson is To- cated, where "the crowd" issued an ultimatum that no trains should pass carrying either nonunion firemen or negro firemen. Governor Smith has also asked the sheriff there to keep him fully advised of the situation. The governor has also wired the sher- ifs of Rockdale and DeKalb Counties urging upon them prompt action for the protection of the railroad em- ployes and property.
