Hickey, with show of irritation that
surprised Phoebe.
"How should You know" she re

Hickey still further astonished the
girl by turning pale at Ills random

TIE YANKEE DOODLE 10Y AND HIS SISTER
Give him room and let him bang,
Batter, clatter, craoHls, clarg,
Rub a dub, hurrah and charge,
Strike and wheel and tramp at large,
Fierce with vaIor, hewing down
Mullen head and thistle crown;
IT'S the fourth day of July,
And his syal heart beats high.
As the good boy Washington,
slashing cherry trees for fun,
When to noble meahood grown
Drove his Ratchet through a throne,
So my Yankee four-year-o
New in fancy battles bold,
Shall grow up in courage strong
To smite many a cruel wrong!

THE SPIRIT OF AMERICAN
INDEPENDENCE.

Let US, standing by our ia
Tiers graves, swear anew and
teach the oath to our children
that with Gods help the Ameri-
can republic, clasping this con-
tinent in its embrace, shall
stand unmoved, though all the
powers of slavery, piracy and
European jealousy should COM
bine to overthrow K; that we
shall have in the future, as we
have had in the past, one coun-
try, one constitution and one
destiny; that our sons may
gather strength from our ex-
ample in every contest with the
despotism that time may have
in store to try their virtue, and
that they may rally under the
stars and stripes TO battle for
freedom and the rights Of man
with our old time warcry, LIB
erty and union, now and for
ever, ore and inseparabIe."-

Defendant in Case Brought by 0epos-
itors Of Kelley Bank Will Appeal.
Special to Times-Republican.
Nevada, July S.-A motion for new
trial in the case against Asa Banks,
which was brought by some of the de-
positors of the defunct bank Of Kelley.
was denied by Judge r. NJ. Wright, in
whose court the trial was tried some
weeks ago. The judgment brought in
by the jury for $22,132.81. was affirmed.
This is one of the largest verdicts ever
rendered in Story county court. Mr..
Banks will appeal the case.
It will be remembered that Banks
n-law, J.. Penfield, conducted a
private bank over at Kelley and in
some manner connected Banks name
with the advertising Of the institution.
Penfield got into financial straits and
left the country, never having been
heard of since. Some OF the depositors
brought this action against Banks. a
wealthy farmer and land owner. The
case was hard fought in the district
court.
G. L. Siverley. Of the Union National
of Ames, was also connected with the
Kelley bank as an employee for a time
and he was made defendant in the
case but the case was taken from the
Jury so far as the action against
Siverly was concerned. The ruling Of
Judge Wright for motion for a new
trial was received at the Office Of the
clerk of the courts yesterday.
