ABOUT THAT BIG CHECK.

As an object lesson a check has been
issued at Salem to the Capital Journal
for 81, the largest ever issued in Sa-
lem. 1t is IL inches wide and 2s inches
long, and will be put in circulation in
Salem, until the back is covered with
endorsements. Then it viii be properly
taken up and photographed, being used
by the Commercial club to show how
money kept at home circulates among
the people back and forth. 1t will be all
right unless some skinflint gets hold of
it and sticks it in an old stocking and
puts it in hole in the wall for safe
keeping; but this will not occur. Sa-
lem is a live town and the people will
enter into the spirit of the experiment
and will want their names on the back
as part of the great business machin-
cry Of the city. 1t will not take many
days to fill it full.

Record Restored

San Francisco, Sept. 13.-A petition
for the restoration of a divorce record
destroyed during San Francisco s dis

Mrs. Eva G.: Richmond, wife of a
wealthy realty operator, who was di-

son of the founder of Seattle and a
member of a prominent family in that
section. Since the divorce, Denny has
paid her $3.50 month alimony for the
