WE ARE GROWING

It is a matter of sincere congratulation that the threatened financial panic is disappearing-, leaving- no disaster in its train. It was almost inconceivable that In a time of such unpredented prosperity there could be any substantial panic or trouble. And without endeavoring to analize causes it is sufficient to say that for a time, disaster was imminent. But business men, dopositors, and the public generally were quick to realize the danger of a stampede and quietly and sensibly accepted the situation and continued on with their duties.

Their confidence in the integrity and

remained unshaken and these institutions solved the problem confronting them unembarassed by unreasonable demands, or hasty, ill-advised action. And be It known this confidence is well reposed. In no community in the Middle "West are there better, more upright and more painstaking men than the men who are at the head of the financial institutions of Lake county. Without exceptions they are men of unquestioned character of ample personal means and and have ever adopted conservative methods both in the general banking business and in the making of loans. That this community felt no anxiety is an evidence not only of their good sense and Judgment, but also of the confidence generally felt that the banks o Lake county are as safe as the treasury of Washington and are conducted with conservatism and care.. Considering the unusual amount of business, conducted in this region, the immense pay rolls, the need of a large volume of money, that there was no excitement and no embarasslng situations is the highest tribute to the bankers and to the people's confidence and good sense. IF "WE understand Speaker Cannon correctly his position is: If a primary law embarasses politicians it ought to be defeated. If it gives the people a chance- without interfering with the politicians, it ought to be given a limited test properly safe guarded with the usual constitutional limitations. SPEAKING OF a candidate for governor, the 10th congressional district has some pretty good timber, and we are going to have considerable of a delegation down there next year. They will soon begin to sit up and take notice when Lake county arises to modestly insist on some recognition. NOW DON'T all speak at once but who are willing to sacrifice their personal interest and take up the onerous burdens of state soon to be so gladly relinquished by Gov. llanly. KEEPING YOUR money in the bank is a wise and safe policy, but don't use the excuse about money in the bank too often with the importuning collector. t O THEY DID not have to gag or chloroform or hypnotize Uncle Joe Cannon to obtain his consent to be a presidential candidate after all.

MELLO DY GEIS TRIMMED Stowed Away by Dark Horse in Fifteenth Round At Dayton. Dayton, O., Nov. 1. Honey Mellody of Boston was knocked out in the fifteenth round here tonight by Kid Mantell of Providence, It. I. The bout was scheduled for twenty rounds. Mellody was a hot favorite before the mill started, buf'Mantell landed on him with right and laft swings to the jaw that sent the star fighter to the floor for the count. Tho mill was a fierce on from the first gong. During the first four rounds the honors were even. Then Mellody landed a right on Mantell's jaw that made the latter a trifle groggy, but the gong saved him, and the Providence fighter came back In the next round apparentlj' fresh. In the twelfth round Mellody landed a couple of hard ones on Mantell's head that seemed to Jar him. Mantell was game, however, and struck out the milling until the gong. The thirteenth and fourteenth rounds were all in Mel'ody's favor. He shot out right and left jabs and jolts that made the Providence welter stupid at times. The fifteenth round was a surprise to all. Mantell came up fresh and strong when Mellody thought he had his opponent going. Mellody was taken off his guard and Mantell landed a right hook on the Jaw and followed it quickly with a poke from the left. Mellody fell like a log and had to be carried from the- ring. He revived shortly afterward. In tho preliminary bout Fiz Harris Mackay of Cleveland knocked out Bobby Harris ot Chicago in the seventh round. SOLDIERS PLAY AT RENSSELAER.

AMUSEMENT

AT CALUMET NOV. 1 AND 2. "THE (AnD KING OF THE COAST.' Truxton Boone, the proverbial "Black Sheep" of a family of lineal descendants cr the famous "Boones of Kentucky," was among the first to reach the "Illondike'' when the news reached the states o! the enormous quantities of sold found in the hills in that almost inaccessible country. Doone quickly acquired wealth in the gold fields, also the reputation of being "on the square"; and on account of his skillful manipulation of the rards he became famous as, "The Card King of the Coast." Boone's delight was to beat a crooked gambler at his own game, and came very near losing j his life on several occasions, as a con sequence. Hut in a square game with a gentleman he was never known to turn a crooked trick. Another side of Hoone's nature, which never became apparent until a woman reached camp, was almost a religeous reverence of a pure woman, a trait which was undoubtedly inculcated into his character on account of the manner in whlchhe idolize,! the memory of his mother. A good woman unfortunately reached the lonely '-Klondike" camp. through the greed for money of one of the human vultures who sell women to the unscrupulous miners, to be their mistress and housekeepers. Marflam Vaughn was one of these unfortunate creatures, through her desire to hide a crime which was wrongfully charged against her. Boone at the risk of his life, rescued her from Scene from "Our the clutches of Jim Caruthe, proprietor of the famous "Palace Dance Hall," who had paid $500 to have her delivered Into his keeping. Boone stood between her and her enemies, protected her from Insult, turned a deaf ear to accusations against her, and even when he discovered that she was accused of murdering his own halfbrother, still stood between her and her captors. Believing her guiltless, he took her back to Kentucky, proved her entire innocence of the deed. And what else would you have him do but marry her and settle down at the old home and become a respected member of society. This is the story of Messrs. Vance and Sullivan's great melo-drama y-)

New ork, Nov. 1. General William Booth, founder and head of the Salva tion army, arrived here today on what is probably his last visit to New York The aged Salvationist is feeble and has been in poor health since his arrival in America five weeks ago. His ailment puzzles his physicians and himself. "I have resumed my program," he said, ' and have grown stronger and stronger. This is an exemplification of my theory that work is the great remedy for all human ills." Speaking of his meetings, he said: "I find that people with no religious leanings are more sympathetic than many others. There is in every one a nature that responds to a call for goodness and benevolence and God. Religion is not the idea of being moody or melancholy, but rather it is a Jolly state of heart. The indifference to a formal religion Is growing. People have tried it, have suffered disappointment, and have turned away from It." Quoting one who had sa!J. "Today's rich man cannot enter the kingdom of heaven," the general commented: "It all depends upon what he doe with his riches. If he would send some of it to the Salvation army. I would speak a word to Peter for him. 'The best form of socialism is a celestial creed to profess and to practice; its basis is loving your neighbor as yourself. It should have come before Fden or should come after the judgment day. "Every movement that stirs up the human soul is good, I remember an occurrence at a meeting in Nottingham. AV repentant sinner, who I am confident really was saved, stood up on the repentant's platform and with tar9 streaming down hi, face said hen I came into this meei.ng 1 iu u if I thought I'd be saved.'
