Jim Meaciram

Whisky never claimed kindlier,
more whole souled victim than "Jimp
Meacham, who paid the toll yesterday
and laid down his glass.
He was college bred, Of good par
entage, happily married and possessed
Of high ideals. He belonged to church
was believer in the beautiful Chris
tian faith and tried TO live right. He
was man Of action, of broad view
and put his ideas into foiceful form.
While In Rockford he wrote columns
of matter on The loan shark evil and
made friends in and out Of the office.
With all this equipment Of manhood
he could not battle the whisky habit.
1t became disease. He was an OBJ
ject of pity rather than scorn. When
he was himself he was gentleman in
the literal sense Of the word.
He came to Rockford because there
were no saloons, hoping that the alb
ssnce Of temptation would help him
in the battle for his life and honor and
was gaining on the habit.
After the town went "wet," the old
habits returned, and ambition went
out
He took final chance at sana-
torium, out it was too late.

Dancing A Sin.
Ell il a dance not a dance?

When IL a dance not dance?
Methodist ministers OF Baltimore
who have an interest in Gouchcr Col
lege as Methodist institution stared
when they saw the announcement that
the college spirit committee had
planned the second of . series Of
dances.
A dance? Horrors! One minister
said he hoped 1t was not true. He ex-
planned that the General Conference
of the church, at its last session in
Baltimore, reaffirmed the ban which
the denomination has always pat on
dancing and similar amusements, and
that a dance at the College was enough
to take his breath away.
DR.. Eugene A. Noble, president Of
the college. said: "The statement Is
true and 1t isn't. 1t is referred to as a
dance but 1t Is not dance In the
accepted social meaning Of that word.
There will be no men present; no, no.
There will be present only the stud
ents OF the sclool.
"WilIthey dancer" DR.. Noble was
asked.
1T Will not be a dance III the ae-
cepted social sense"
No one will know whether there is
dancing unies he goes, and no the
not even the president of the College
will be there. Thus the answer to
the anxious opponents to dancing will
be no answer at all--only the ques-
/. ton, the riddle:
When is dance not dance?

RIunswiek, Jan. l9--The receivers
0 the Brunswick Savings Bank met
the deposisors at the Red Mems Hall
IN order to render a report.
The receivers have found ouite a
number of leases in which notes have
been duplicated. That is, where a man
would have two or three notes in the
bank he would at some time hsve
them all consolidated into one note,
frequently Showing the old notes 10
main IN the bank. There has also
been established in number of cases
'tuai payment of notes that we're
lnnd IN the bank. In this manner
tle original value Of the assets will be
r.iuced.
ssN receivers also produced certain
buds aad stocks in Mr.. sehnauffer's
n me which were found in TIE bank.
Tbese toads and stocks have probably
a value Of $500 He also agreed to
d ei 10 them lot which he owned
IL Brunswick valued al 81 600. They
" re adv sed by MI sehnauf1er that
t lis was ali he posed OF value.
There was not ing to show that N r.
sci hauffer had at any time PIT any
money in the bank. 1t was looked up
on as being Mr.. Schuaffer's bank. He
ran it as such and no pretense was
made of carrying out the provisions of
this part of the charter after the bank
had begun to do business.
There is no evidence that any re-
port of the banks condition was ever
rendered to the state officials. The
overdrafts of Mr.. Schnaufier, which
total up over $4,000 are Oh iy account
ed for by the checks he issued, and in
which manner the funds of the banks
were spent can only be ascertained by
going over his Individual checks.
The depositors condemn Mr..
schnauffer very severely for leading
them to believe that he was man Of
means, and feel that he has systema
tically deceived them ever since the
bank was opened They also are still
asking why Bank Examiner Motler
did not close the bank when he first
came to examine it,and not accept Mr..
Schnauffer's statement that 1t WAS
solvent. Steps are being taken to see
whether the deposits received after his
first visit TO the bank should not he
returned to the depositor dollar for
dollar.
{. 1t was also learned that the Virginia
depositers had taken steps to attach
any notes due the bank by residents
living in Virginia, and have any money
due on these notes prorateI among
them.
Receivers Newman and Shafer will
begin making distribution as soon IA
they have sufficient to pay twenty-five
cents on the dollar.

Engineer Sticks To Post; Saves Train
Eugene Radcliffe, w. M. engine
man, heroieally sticking to his post,
saved runaway train from disaster,
and probably his own life.
A freight train drawn by three en-
ginss about seven miles up the Black
water grade ran into a rock. In pull
ing the engine off the rock coupling
broke and the rear engine mallet,
and II cars dashed down the grade.
Another engine started in pursuit. but
all efforts to catch the runaway we're
futile. AS the train approached the
dangerous Big Ring curve, the scene
of many disastrous wrecks, all Jump
ed except Engineer Radcliffe.
He set his engine against the train,
which was now running at high rate
of speed, and crawled out over the
train and set the handbrakes. lie

standstill few rods outside the yard
