AS CASHIER OF FIRST NATIONAL
BANK OF COMMERCE OF
THIS CITY.
HAS ENTERED CLERKS CONTEST
Mr.. G. J. Hauenstein And Mr.. w. p.
Jones Receive WelI-Deserved
Promotions.

R. c. Hauenstein will regret to learn
that he has severed his connection
entirely with the First-National
Bank of Commerce of this
city. He has been with the
bank some 13 years. and during
that time he has been very active and
prominent in the conduct of its busi-
ness and came in contact with all its
customers and multitudes of others
who simply had passing transactions
with the bank. He has been uni
formerly kind and courteous to each
and all, and in his untiring efforts to
discharge his duty faithfully, he not
only served the institution he repre-
sented well, but was always ready and
willing to do for the general public
more than it could expect or require
of him.
Mr.. Hanenstein, as previously an
nounced, leaves the bank to enter the
contest in the county for the office Of
Chancery Clerk, and he has cast aloose
from his former moorings that his
candidacy may be untrammeled in
every regard.
Owing to the resignation of Mr.. r.
C. Hauenstein as cashier, an important
Vacancy occurred in the bank which
was filled at the regular semi-monthly
meeting of its directors yesterday.
Mr.. c. J. Hauenstein, formerly the
efficient and accommodating assistant
cashier of the bank, and brother of Mr..
r. C. Hauenstein, was elected cashier
of the bank, and Mr.. w. P. Jones, the
welI-known and courteous receiving
teller of the bank, was elected assist
ant cashier
1t is a pleasure to see good men
ipromoted. Those who have been
laboring faithfully in the ranks de-
serve these opportunities when they
are fitted and thoroughly prepared for
the responsibilities. In this case there
are no two more deserving young men
to be found anywhere. They are high
ly trained and well qualified for their
increased responsibilities, in every
way, by education. experience and
habits of life.
Both are sons of Confederate vet
erans, and scions of old families who
have ever labored faithfully for ths
greater uplift of Mississippi. Theil
friends will all be pleased to- recs4t-t
this information, and their ekction ia
these offices will prove popular.
The directors of the bank passsd the
following resolutions on the resignation
of Mr.. R. c. Hauenstein:
Whereas, Mr.. R. c. Hauenstein
the efficient, careful and faithful cash
ier of this bank has seen fit to ask it:
board of directors to release him from
r his present engagements with the
bank, that he may enter broader anC
E more useful field of activities,
And, whereas, Mr. Hauenstein hai
e been associated with us continuously
since July, 1898, having at all time
been ready and willing to do and per
form any and all reasonable acts tha

regret and tender him our sinceres
thanks for the long, able and valuabl
services he has rendered the bank.
