By order of the directors, the Dali
rymen's National Bank of .Sheboygan
Falls was closed the other day pend
ing the arrival of national bank ex-
aminer Assurance has been given
the depositors that they will be paid
in full and the officers hope to reopen
the bank in few days. John Il.
Thomas, 81 years old, is president OF
the bank. His son, Stedman Thomas,
is the cashier. The bank was started
more than thirty years ago. 1t is cap
italized at $4,000, has surplus OF
$1,000, and the deposits aggregate
about s125,00O. Reports that the bank
was in difficulty because of inability
to realize on an old loan caused some
small depositors to withdraw their &C.
couns. Fearing a run, the directors
ordered the institution closed. Seven
years ago the bank loaned $4,000 to
the old Elkhart-Plymouth Traction
line, which failed about two years ago.
The bank was able to realize only
$4,000 on the loan, and since that
time the stockholders have been try
ing to liquidate the remaining
$4,000.

ManitowOc Man Held Responsible
for Thefts Committed by Boys.
Israel Sokolwitz, convicted in Mani
towoc of receiving stolen property,
after being told by the court that he
was virtually responsible for the thefts
committed by boys because without a
market for the stolen goods the boys
would not have stolen, was sentenced
to serve five months in Jail. Sokol-
WITT was convicted on an appeal and
the jury recommended leniency be-
cause of his youth, but the court de-
clared that he was experienced enough
to knew hat the goods were stolen
and the court believed him guilty. So
kolwitz purchased grain stolen from
cars and local elevators.
