Twain, of whom two, a son and a
daughter, died early. One other daugh-
ter, Jean, who had been an invalid
for life, was found dead in her bath

Twain,s Career In the West.

San Francisco, April 21.-Joseph n,
Goodwin of Alameda, Cal, one of the
first editors IN the west, is the man
who gave Mark Twain his first position
as a writer. That was over so years
ago in the days of the old Comstock
lode in Nevada, when men who had
made their way across the continent
in prairie schooners were taking vast
was a day when literature had not
penetrated the west to the remote
points where the search for wealth led
the fortune hunters and writer's of even
ordinary ability were hard to find.
Samuel Clemens had gone into Ne
vada with hundreds of others as a pros
peetor. While at work in the country
just beyond Virginia City he sent vari-
Gus contrib utions to the Territory En-
terprise," the leading paper of that
section of the state, of which Good
man was the editor. His manuscript
was written in a highly humorous vein
and touched upon men and conditions in
a way that was intensely interesting.
Goodman accepted the stories and re-
quested that more be sent In this way
he got into correspondence with Glenn
ems and in a short time offered him a
position. Clemens at first declined the
offer, but later Goodman prevailed upon
him to forsake his quest for the yellow
metal and become a newspaper man.
That was in 1852, and, springing sud-
denly into local fame, the humorist
climbed steadily into public favor.
Nom de Plume First Used.
In 1859 Clemens was sent by Goodman
to report the session of the Nevada Leg
islature at Carson City. 1t was while
upon this assignment that Clemens
wrote the first story to which the nom
de plume, Mark Twain" was signed.
Clemens. writing as Mark Twain. with
a freedom of style and comment that
was as breezy and open as the lives
of the men about whom he wrote, at
tracted the attention of the San Fran
cisco editors and offers began to tempt
him. In 1856 he left Nevada and came
the Alta California, the Call. then owned
San Francisco he met many of his old
cronies.
Clemens was commissioned by the
Sacramento Union in 1857 to journey
to the Sandwich Islands and write q Sc
rtes of special articles descriptive OF
the islands and their people. When
he. returned to San Francisco some
months later, the desire to go east pos
sessed him and he made several efforts
to give uD his associations here and
depart. Finally in 1869. he left the
scene of his early triumphs and went tc
New York. He never returned TO San
Francisco.
Most of the sold guard" who were in
timately acquainted with Clemens are
dead. The last one of his close friends
of the early western days was Arthur

writer, who died about three years ago

z|ON'S SAVINGS BANK IN
CREASES CAPITAL STOCK.

The following letter has been mailed
to every stakeholder of the lions Saw
ings Bank informing them of the action
of the board Of directors regarding the
proposed increase OF the capital stock
from 100000 to $5OO,OOO
April IS, 1910.
To the Stockholders of lions Savings
Bank & Trust Company:
At recent meeting of the Board Of
Directors Of lions Savings Bank &
Trust Company a resolution was adopt
ed providing that at the next annual
meeting Of the stockholders of the
bank a proposition would be submitted
for increasing the capital stock of the
bank from two hundred thousand dol
lars, the present capital, Ito five hun
dred thousand dollars, making an in
crease in the capital stock of three
hundred thousand dollars; this increase
to be provided in the following man
ner:
From the surplus and undivided
profits which the bank now has on
hand a dividend of one hundred per
cent upon the present capital will be
declared, payable in stock at par or
cash, at the option of the stockholder.
The additional one hundred thousand
dollars of stock will be offered to the
stockholders in proportion to their
holdings, at the price Of three hundred
twenty-five dollars per share, which
price is one-half of the present mar
ket value Of the stock. If any stock
holder shall fail to avail himself of the
privilege of purchasing said stock, the
same may be disposed of by the board
Of directors at the price indicated.
When this proposition shall have
hsaaV1 fr.1 Il
of the bank will be five hundred thou
sand dollars, and the surplus two hun
dred twenty-five thousand dollars,
making the total capital and surplus
seven hundred twenty-five thousand
dollars, and thereby the financial posi-
ton of the bank will be greatly
strengthened, and when taken in con-
nection with the surplus which the
bank would still have on hand, lions
Savings Bank & Trust Company would
undoubtedly be the strongest savings
bank in the intermountain region, and
one of its strongest financial institu-
tons.
This letter Is addressed to you so
that you will have an opportunity to
consider the matter before the time at
which you will be called upon to vote
upon the proposition.
Very respectfully,

While the Lancashire Lass was ra.
cling down to the Straits of Messina
the Erinna was heading for the same
point from the opposite direction, no
longer dawdling along at half-speed
but going her full 16 knots, after coal
ing at Naples, and any navigator who
knew the positions and respective
speeds of the two yachts could have
calculated with approximate precision
the point at which they would prob
ably sight each other.
Logotheti had given up the idea of
taking Baraka to Paris, If he had ever
really entertained 1t at all. He as
sured her that Naples was great
city, too, and that there was first
class French dress-making establish
ment there, and that the Vile de
Lyon would turn her out almost as
smartly as the Rue de la Paix itself.

He took Baraka ashore and placed
her for half day in the hands of
Nine Anna, who undertook to do all
that money could do in about a fort
night, He had the effrontery to say
that Baraka was a niece of his from
Constantinople, whose mother was on
board the yacht, but had unfortunate
ly sprained her ankle in falling down
the companion during a gale, and
could therefore not accompany her
daughter on shore. The young lady,
he said, spoke only Turkish Nine.
Anna, grave and magnificently calm
under all circumstances, had a vague
recollection of having seen the hand
