STATE NATIONAL
 BANK SOLVENI DEPOSlTORS TO BE PAID BALANCE LEFT FOR STOCh- HOLDERS, SAYS WASHING
 TON REPORT.

Local stockholders of the State National Bank of Little Rock which closed it's doors June 19. were pleased to learn from report from the Tres ury Department at Washington pub lished today that the institution has been found to be solvent and no re- ceiver will be named. The deposltors, it is understood, will be paid in full and there will be a balance left for the stockholders. Hendrix College, the largest local stockholder in the bank, owns stock amounting to S10,000, and it was feared when the closing was first announced that the college would not only lose this amount but would be called upon to pay an assessment of an equal amount in order that the depositors might be paid. Among other Conway stockholders are At torney J. C. Clark and his daughter, Miss Bessie Clark.
 A dispatch from Washington says the Treasury Department now IS con- sidering offers made by several banks to take over the institution for pur- poses of liquidation. Among the Lit tie Rock banks said to have submitted some sort of a proposition to effect the liquidation are the w. B. Worthen Company and the new Bankers Trust Company. Other local banks also are said to have made offers.
 The report of National Bank Ex- aminer w. w. Smith, who has been in charge of the bank since it closed its doors, was to the effect that it will not be necessary to name a receiver for the bank, as he has found it sol vent. The capital is impaired, he

STREET PAVING
 WORK DELAYED

On account of delay in the snip ment of some valves to be used wlth the iron pipe which will be laid Tn the place of wooden water mains Tn the business district, work on the paving of Street Improvement District No. l has been tied up all this week. Trenches in which to lay the new pipe have been cut and the streets are bad ly torn up, and no definite informa- tion has been received as to when the special fittings will arrive here, al though the factory has written that they have been shipped. In order to avoid cutting off the water supply from the business district for several days the old pipe will not be removed until after the new iron pipe has been laid and connected, and it is possible that the old mains will be left in the ground, as the cost of eXcavatlng and removing them would, it is thought, be fully as much as the value of the pipe.
 The board of improvement thls morning received the Autographed bonds to be issued by the district and are holding meeting this afternoon for the purpose or signing them. When signed the bonds will be pald for and the proceeds placed in the hands of the districts treasurer, Ople Hartje.

stated, but the announcement from Washington last night did not indi. cate at what figure, if any, the ex. aminer's report fixed the loss to the stockholders.
 Two avenues of liquidation, bankers in Little Rock said last night, are open. One would be to turn the bank back to the stockholders to select liouidating agent and the other, gen. erallv considered the preferable ac. tion. would be to accept the offer of another bank to take over the institu. tion to effect a liquidation.
 The announcement in Washington that the Treasury Department is con- sidering offers made by several banks to take over the institution indicates that whatever step is to be taken it will be subject to the approval or with the consent of Comptroller of the Currency John Skelton Williams.
 Cashier H. M. Johnson of the State National bank and J. F. Mcintyre, one of the banks directors. were in con ference with Treasury Department of. ficials for several hours yesterday aft ernoon. They left for Little Rock late yesterday.
 Offers to take over the closed bank are considered as confidential bus- ness, and are not disclosed by either the Treasury Department or the banks making the offers.
 The Treasury Departments an- nouncement, based on Examiner Smiths report of his investigations, indicates that in the examiners opin- ion the bank will not only pay the de- positors in full, but also will return some amount to the stockholders.
 The assets of the bank, if collected without loss, would pay all depositors and leave a balance estimated at De- tween $20O,O ,O00 and 300,00O for the i stockholders

in the long past for one Morton Ross,
was destined to shine and bring forth
glorious fruit for aye!
With the removal Of his mortal
part the next day, the spirit OF Roscoe
l2hail seemed to float from the old
environment. 1t was a flight to the
stars: a grope beneath vast ocean
depths, now in the holy silence of
some dense African forest never in
vaded by the foot of man, again on
the mountain tops of some lofty
Himalaya range; unhampered, time,
space, distance annihilated, his ego
wandered. In the great broad sense
Of divinity the world lay before him
mere midget of the universe. Cities
were as ant hills, events panoramic.
And then, the newness of illimit,
able omnipresence wearing away, q
great longing came to him. Material
things were as nothing now, not even
love. The spirit seemed to crave for
some high pure ideal where the soul
could be fed and satisfied. There
came keen mental analysis. What
had been his earthly life's greatest
boon? And, thinking of the goodness
of heaven, the strong contrast Of his
latter life, purified as by fire, his an
swer was speedy-"Joy."
So it came to his soul that as one
man might have the predominating
spirit of peace, another of hope, an
other Of faith, with him full souled
JOY had wrought out blessed meas
ure of existence Dear old world"
his creed had run, 81 love every
body!" and he had lived out the SEN
timent and had been happy.
Joy, an essence, an inspiration, an
expression of gratitude-it was as
much an entity, as sunshine, or the
perfume of flowers, as the rare In
1uence Of music. All found abiding
places in some souls craving the
guest. Where could Joy discover a
sure dwelling place?
In the palace of kings where power
and luxury prevailed the seeking
spirit sought a home Alas! power

NEVER NEEDS TO BE WOUND
This Clock Runs Until Metal Parts
That Constitute Its Works Are
Worn Out.

Clocks that tell the time with only
one hand are something of novelty
but they cannot compare with a re
Gently invented clock which never
needs winding. It will run forever-or
at least until its metal parts wear out
This sounds like the old fa11acy OF
perpetual motion, but, as matter OF
fact, is far from it. The new clock
runs by using in an ingenious way the
energy produced by changes in tenn.
perature.
Metal bars, which are very sensitive
to temperature changes, are arranged
in such a manner that when the meT-
curry falls and the bars contract this
slight motion of the metal is fully used
When the thermometer goes up and
the bars expand slightly, the motion
involved in their lengthening is also
made to do work.
The motion from the bars lifts tiny
steel balls from lower reservoir to an
upper one. There they are made to
turn a wheel in much the same way
that water turns an old-fashioned
water wheel
The energy resulting from the ex-
pansion and contraction of metal as
the temperature changes can be used
only to operate mechanism like that Of
clocks and watches, which requires
only a small amount of power. It is
too expensive to be used where much
power is required.
Somebody with fondness for math-
ematics has estimated that to gem
crate a single horse power in this way
would cost nearly fifty million dol
lars.
