Killed the PIay

The production in Paris Of a new
version of the tragedy OF "Sophonis-
ba" inevitably recalls a curious piece
Of theatrical history where a single
line is said to have killed a whole
play.
On the first night OF James Thomp-
sons "Sophonisba" one OF the actors
had to declaim the somewhat idiotic
line: "Oh, Sophonisba; Sophonisba,
OH"
Instantly cutting voice from the
rather restless audience: "Oh, Jimmy
Thompson; Jimmy Thompson, obi"
The laughter that followed complete
ly broke up the seriousness of the eve
ning's entertainment.

NO NEW CHARTERS
FOR FEDERAL BANKS
Action by Board of Directors Suffi-
cient to- Enter New System.
Regulations Issued.

Washington, Dec. 31.-Banks that
enter the Federal reserve system do
not need to take out new charters.
but both state and national banks
may become members by making
proper application and by becoming
stockholders i'm federal reserve banks.
This regulation was issued yesterday
by the reserve bank organization COM
mittee.
The committee also announced that
action by a board of directors is suf-
fcient to bring a bank into the new
system, but advised that banks that
wish to be on the safe side sound
out their stockholders.
The regulation reads:
The federal reserve act provides
for membership or banks operating
under state charters as we'll as mem
bership of national banks. No new
charter is contemplated in either
case Eligible banks become mem
bers by becoming stockholders in fed
eral reserve banks, when their ap-
phcations have been properly APP
proved and stock has been allotted to
them. Such subscription to the capt.
tai stock of the federal reserve bank
appears to be a matter within the
province of the board of directors of
the subscribing bank. The organ
iZation committee therefore deems it
unnecessary to require as a condition
precedent to membership that the
stockholders should take any formal
action.
'lnasmuch, however, as stockhold-
crs of bank have legal right, by
necessary vote, to force a solvent
bank to liquidate, and if dissatisfied
with the action of the board in be-
coming members might exercise this
prerogative, banks desiring to take
the precautionary measure Of can
vassing the sentiment of the stock
holders may, by resolution of their
boards, submit the question to stock
holders either at the next regular
meeting or at a specially called meet
ing. This course, however, is not in
sisted on by the organization COM
mittee.
Those national banks passing res
olutions of non-acceptance on or be-
fore February %, 1914, should, as
soon thereafter as convenient, and
before the expiration of the IL month
prescribed in the federal reserve act
submit their action to the stockhold-
ers for confirmation, since monaco
ceptance Of the provisions of the fed
eral reserve act ultimately will in
volve the liquidation of such national
banks"

Where Money Is Hidden.

When man believed to be John G..
Stenger was found hanging to tree
recently at Dover n. j., it was noted
that the suicide had a wooden leg.
Searching him for something by which
to identify him. the police discovered
a drawer in the wooden leg that opened
and closed with a spring. In 1t we're
found $1.07 and some private papers.
The dead mans leg had been his bank.
Strange as this is. 1t is not more so
than the case of the well-known old
miser Of st. Paul, Mimi, who for many
years made his head his bank. He
wore wig, and between it and his
bare poll were over dozen $4,000
bills laid fiat in piece of silk. Sew
eral times his house was entered by
thieves and they went away baked. It
was only at his death that the odd
hiding place was found. A note ex-
planned that he had found the head
bank the safest place of all, and that
he had carried 100000 in it for a
score of years.
