LOCAL FINANCIAL GOSSIP

While the returns of the national banks
and trust companies made TO the Comp
trOller OF the Currency showed increased
earnings and expanded deposits, they
showed by implication only that a much
greater volume of financial business was
transacted in Washington In 1909 than in
the previous year Now comes the re-
port of the clearing house for the calen-
oar year, which leaves no doubt on that
score
Among other things. the annual state
ment prepared by J. Gales Moore, man
ager of the Washington clearing house,

The other day two Americanized Ital-
ians met on the street and began a

intellectual accomplishments; it ran
something like this: "Luigi, yo ALA de

Whereupon the indignant Luigi
turned upon his fellow countryman:

AKA yo one tinga yo Gamma answer:

DEATH or EgS. Assa NORRIS.
Mr.. Anna Norris, widow 81 J. I


Norris. dlevat the family home Oh Sur
day night at It:30 o'csoek, aged 81
years ard a native OF Set York City.
Mrs. Norris had been resident Of
Bay st. Louis for many years, moving
here from Biloxi, Miss. She il survived
by two children, Mrs. Fannie Norris
Savage, a lady of literary attsinments
and widow of the late Rev. DR.. Savage,
well-known Methodist minister OF this
city some years back. The other child
is son, J. L. Norris, well-known young
resident of this city.
The deceased had been an active MEM
Der of the Methodist church, and was
prominently known for her ennobling
qualities, which prompted her to many
deeds of charity. Her long span OF life
was the living exemplification OF Chris
tian virtues and the practice OF its prln-
ciples. Thus, in the fading OF this
earthly glory for His sake and in His
name, there is removed from the vine
yard one OF the workers whose efforts
were always potent and fruitful.
The funeral took place on Tuesday
afternoon from the late residence, cor
ner Railroad and Keller avenue. Rev.
T. B. Cottrell, pastor of the Main Street
Methodist Church officiating, and was
largely attended by friends and ac-
quaintances generally who had come to
pay their last respects to the dead and
to render homage to the memory OF one
who in life had been so dear; to place
a flower as silent prayer upon the bier,
or to shed a tear Of sorrow and SYM
pathize with the bereaved daughter and
son.
The remains we're tenderly laid away
in the bosom of mother earth, at Cedar
Rest Cemetery, and freshly-made e
mound, covered with breathing, living
flowers, marks the hallowed spot where,
enshrined in the love of dutiful daugh-
ter and son, reposes in peaceful rest
the mortal remains Of one known by
that beautiful and ever unsullied name
of Mother.
Mrs. Savage and brother have the
sympathy of wide circle of friends,
who feel for them in their temporary
and earthly loss.
