STATE is BROKE"
But Can Borrow From Its

The balance left IN tho state
general fund at the end OF the
month OF May was so low That the
state is unable to meet It's daily
bligatins except by borrowing from
special funds, according to the
monthly report of Treasurer w. s.
Johnson. However tho state has
ample reserve in these special
special funds and can borrow from
itself. The cash balance in the
general fund on June /, the report
shows, was S2o,5lS,6l, not much
more than enough to meet the eX-
penses of the state for n day.
In making the report public Mr.,
Johnson issued a statement explain
ing the finances In detail ut the

of alarm. The states credit is not
hurt but Mr.. Johnson says 1T is
very unfortunate that this condi-
ton exists because the consumma-

throughout the state are dependent
upon rocking financial aid from

During the month Of May pay

that there were no funds available
for their payment. One single in

"THE BRONZE BELL
FAMOUS NOVEL

THE Bronze Bell" the latest
Paramount-1nce special picture
which will be presented at the Apol-
10 Theatre Wednesday has for more
than ten years ranked as one OF the
most popular of American novels
and is still enjoying an enormous
sole by bookdealers throughout the
English-speaking world.
A stirring romance of British East
India, "The Bronze Bell'' was pub
lished in novel form by Dodd, Mead
& Co, Of New York, in 1909, and
within a few weeks was rated as
one of the best sellers Of the year.
For many months an extraordinary
demand was evinced, and several
editions of the novel were issued.
When Thomas II. Ince negotiated
for the screen rights of a number
OF Louis Joseph Vance's novels
"The Bronze Bell" received first
consideration, both because Of its
wide popularity and its unusual
adaptibility for the screen. Che
story is dramatic and [ns feart ap-
peal irresistible. Courtenay Foote
and Doris May head a clever cas-
of players.
