OVERLAND NATIONAL
BANK, BOISE, CLOSED

The Overland National bank, of BOZ
Sc, with deposits of more than one
million dollars, closed its doors Mon
day by action of the board of directors
NJ. c. Wilde, of San Francisco,
national bank examiner. took charge Of
the bank s affairs.
At 10 clock Monday morning, the
bank failed to open. Patrons of the
bank were notified that it would not
open pending the examination in
progress. There was no excitement.
The information was taken quietly
and Boise business houses and other de-
positors who have been associated
with the bank Immediately made ar
engagements to open accounts in other
banking institutions. Shrinkage of
deposits and inability to liqusdate
loans, was gwen as the cause for the
present condition of the bank.
Confidence is expressed that the
assets of the institution when liquid
ated will ay the depositors in full.
The bank is carrying paper which
under ordinary circumstances could
be liquidated without trouble but has
been unable to collect on it in order
to raise funds to meet contracted in
debtedness. This combined with the
shrinkage brought the crisis The
capital stock of the bank is 100000.

STEWED CAT

Stewed cat makes an extreme
ly palatable dish, according to

who recently returned to Grange
vile from Seattle. In speaking
of the delicacy, Dick declared
he and seven other Cinnamon
enjoyed feast on cat in Seattle
during the winter.

ed. When informed in the neg
ative, he continued:
"Cat velly good. Yes, l eat
'em in Seattle last winter. Eight
Cinnamon, we cook 'em cat.
Dog, him pretty good, too. -
Dick then described another
Chinese dish, which is considered
a splendid appetizer. 1t is made
by placing a snake in a glass jar,
then filing the jar with whiskey,
and permitting the mixture to
stand for six months before use.
Dick, however, did not explain
whether he had recently tasted
any of this delicacy.
