Rev. t. McCague
Receives Praise
Colonel Roosevelt Mentions Nile Mis-
sion and Meets Son of Man
Who Founded It.

Choosing an obscure little mission on the
river Nile In Egypt as one of the subjects
of his talk at the den last night, Colonel
Roosevelt told q stirring story, and five
minutes later met the son of the man who
had founded that mission over half CEN
fury ago.
The colonel told how his long tramp
through the wilderness brought him to this
spot that seemed to him to breathe the
atmosphere Of home. Then five minutes
later the colonel met Brewer McCague,
son of the aged man who founded the
string of missions of which the one at
Luxur is one in 1856.
The Rev. Mr.. Thomas McCague, who with
and whose name received homage last
night, is 81 years old.
II only wish 1 could do something for
that mission on the Nile and arouse the
interest in 1t which is Its due" Colonel
Roosevelt had remarked in his address
Just a moment, colonel" spoke a voice
at his elbow as he was leaving the speak
er's box, Here is the gentleman whose
father founded the Luxur mission"
Then, while Gould Dietz looked ON after
his happy work of introduction, Colonel
Roosevelt expressed his homage for the
aged man. In the explanations that fol-
lowed, 1t was learned that Mr.. McCague
and his wife founded the first American
mission In Egypt at Cairo in 1856, and a
short time later founded several others
further up the historic river, including
the one at Assurt, just across from Luxor

Gain Nearly Two Million Since Last
Call of Comptroller.
U. S. NATIONAL IN THE LEAD
Statement IN Taken as an Indication
that Banks Are In Healthy
Condition, with Lots OF
Money working.

Omaha banks show a gain IN their de-
posits of SlS32,5S9 since the last call of the
comptroller, June 30 This showing Is con-
sidered as quite remarkable for this time
Of the year The amount Of money loaned
by the banks shows a slight falling off.
The amount Of money on deposit is
S,GSS,G59 less than one year ago when the
call was made. This is accounted for by
the reason that the country banks have a
little less money on deposit in tine Omaha
banks as the country banks are having
heavy calls for loans from the farmers and
merchants in the state to use in different
undertakings
The United States National bank has
moved from third position in the list OF
banks in the matter Of deposits to first
position.
