A Two and a Quarter Million Dollar
Savings Bank.

1t seems only few weeks since we
chronlcled the fact that the deposits in
the Hyde Park Savings Bank had
reached the two million dollar mark.
To the average newspaper man, who
does not see much money anyway, it
seems like the story of Aladdin's Lamp
to be told that the bank reached and
passed its two and a quarter million
dollar mark on the 18th inst, but such
is nevertheless the fact. A million
dollars is big lot of money up in this
rocky, billy neck of woods. We won
der if our readers realize that it takes
twenty-five thousand five hundred de-
posits, averaging one hundred dollars
each. to make two and quarter mil
lions.
Talk with your neighbor about it,
and he will tell you that he cannot I'M
derstand it-and it does seem almost
unbelievable; but since the bank is
willing to pay state tax on this sum,
we guess we will have to accept the
statement as true. The state will get
from the Lamoille County Savings
Bank SIS, $40 tax on this two and a
quarter million dollars deposits, sum
probably larger, by considerable
amount, than would be paid upon it
were it left in the hands Of those who
make the deposits.
The directors of this bank have
reason to be proud of the unlimited
confidence shown by the people of Yer
mont in this institution. They evil
IDENTIFY think the Hyde Park Bank
safe, and we think there is not little
to the idea that the people like to de.
post their money in bank which car
truthfully say that, aside from money
deposited in New York and Boston as
quick assets, the bank has never
loaned dollar which did not have
either Vermont security behind it or g
strong Vermont name, or names, OF
the note; and that in it's nearly
twentyfour years of existence it has
never lost dollar by poor note.
Of course, the fact. that the banl
pays four per cent, and pays all thu
taxes, is great incentive to make
hese deposits .-News and Citizen.

 Paris, Feb. 29-Auto bandits, be- lieved to be the same band which. on Tuesday, killed a policeman who tried to stop them at the St. Lazare Sta- ton, operated at Pontoise, early to- day, and a fierce battle with auto matic pistols in the dark resulted. They were discovered in the city Urea surer's office at Pontoise by a gendarme. The men were working on the safe, preparatory to blowing 1t open with nitro-glycerine. The off cial summoned assistance and an at tempt was made to surround the Lunding. The lookout for the men saw the officers and fired on them. They returned his bullets and a gen. eraI fusilade followed, during which the robbers escaped from the build ing. A few minutes later they got into their car and disappeared in the direction of this city. Today. a par tially burned automobile was found alongside of the road. It is believed to have been the one the thieves us- ed and also the one in which the mur- derers got away, Tuesday night.
