 funct Banks.

Special to Independent.
 Little Rock, August 22.-The State Banking Department has just ordered four more 100 per cent assessments upon stock holders of bak that have re- gently failed, making five in all. This is prescribed under the act creating the department, which holds stockholders liable in twice the amount of their stock for all the indebtedness of the bank. In each instance the banks have been unable to real ize sufficiently on their assets to meet the obligations which has made the assessment neces- sary. Tn the event the assess ment yields more than enough, the residue will be returned pro- rata to the stockholders.
 The assessments are as fol- lows:
 Bank of Commerce and Trust Company, Stuttgart, failed last May, capital tock, liabilities a. bout $3OO,OOO.

The Banking Department IS beginning to be more rigid III the enforcement of the law, and they are meeting the approval and cooperation of all the best bankers of the state. "You can't hit us too hard along these lines" is the attitude assumed by most of them, who declase that the strict enforcement of bank reg ulations, which the state has lacked all these years, will bring about a stability that has long been needed.
 The Department has gone to the trouble and expense, also of drafting model bylaws which are to be sent to each of the 425 banks in the state with the re- commendation that they be a. dopted. It has been found that many banks have no bylaws at all, and others have inadequate rules for the government of their

Hampstead, b. 4, Dec. lO.-The
Hampstead police are seeking clew
ITO the identity Of two men who drove
up to- the bridge near Prospect ST.,
in liomusine at 1880 Tuesday
night and kidnapped Alice Atche and
Lizzie Antural two French maids
employed by Mrs. Paul Clodio.
The men placed chloformed hand
kerchiefs over the faces Of the two
girls ana carried them in an insensi-
Bile condition to a vacant house at
Rockville Center, seven miles from
Hampstead.
When the two girls regained con-
sciousness at 8 o'clock yesterday
morning, they were in state OF
physical collapse.
The two girls left the Clodio home
at s:45 Tuesday night to go to a
moving picture show in Hampstead.
They left the theater at 1880 and
started home. When in front Of the
residence of Floyd Weeks, presiden:
of Hampstead village, the big To-
mousine drove up. Two men jump
ed out threw chlorofornled handler
chiefs over the girls faces and then
bundled them into the machine.
What happened after that the two
girls do not know. They told the
police they lost consciousness almost
Immediately. Lizzie Antura was
the first to awaken yesterday morn
ing. She found herself IN an empty
room. Jumping up, she walked
through the house and found Alice
Atche in another vacant room.
The two girls then wandered
through the house, and found that il
was entirely empty. The money
and rings that they had when the!a
left the theater had not been touch
ed.
Just a month ago May Hansen
another pretty girl was attacked in
this same locality by a man who
leaped out Of an automobile, and
seized her. She screamed So loudly
and struggled so desperately that
the man became frightened. jumped
into his machine, and managed to

CHAPTER xxxllI,
The Voice From the Past.

The Voice From the Past,
Though the doctor left the church
with Shirley and her mother, he did
not drive to Rosewood, but to his of.
fice There, alone with Mrs. Dan.
bridge while Shirley waited in the
carriage. he unlocked the little tin
box that had been the majors, with
the key Mrs. cambridge gave him, and
put into her hands little packet of
yellow oiledsilk which bore her name.
He noted that it agitated her pro.
foundly and as she thrust it into the
bosom of her dress, her face seemed
stirred as he had never seen It. When
he put her again in the carriage, he
ptted her shoulder with a touch far
gentler than his gruff goodby.
AT Rosewood, at length, alone in her
room, she sat down with the packet in
her hands. During the long hours
since first the little key had lain in
her palm like live coal, she had been
all afirs with eagerness. Now the
moment had come. she was almost
afraid.
She tried to imagine that letters
coming to her-then. Thirty years
ago' A May day. a day of golden
sunshine and flowers. Tie arbors had
been covered with roses then, too, like
those whose perfume. drifted to her
now. Evil news flies fast, and she
had heard of the duel very early that
morning. The letter would have
reached her later. She would have
fled away with to this very room
to read it alone-as she did now!
With unsteady fingers she un.
wrapped the oiled-silk, broke the let.
ter's seal, and read:
