Ihe other time they threw up the contract they resume! it on account of the fact that certain wealthy members of fjbe firm apparently wished to pre, serve their personal integrity and to save the company any needless calumny.

The new local trust company, whose prospective formation was
foretold in the Palladicm some time
ago has become a reality. It is a
combination of local capital, absorbing the Dickinson Trust com nanv and
adding to that company's f30.00U stock $70,000 more. The total caDi-
tal stock is thus 100.000. all
of which is paid up. The Dickin
son family retains its original
stock of 30,000, and does not in
crease it in any amount. The addi
tional capital all comes from outside
the family. No one outside the oriir
nal Dickinson stockholders has more
than 2,"00 stock. To the oresture
of the Dickinson company, which was
u that a loner, nonoraole and sue
cessiul business career could make
it, is added a combination of local capital, backed and accompanied bv
the finest business intelligence of the
city, lhat the new trust company
win oe successiui ana will do an ex
tensive business is a foregone conclusion. It is one of the
strongest in the state, financially as well as in the pres
tige coming trom the Dickies n com
pany and from the excellent personal and business standing of all the par
ties mamngup the bouy or the stockholders. The formal organization will soon lie had. officers will be elected, etc. The company will occupy
the Dickinson Safety Deposit build
ing on south eighth street, according
to tne latest arrangement. That building is admirably fitted for that line of business. .No name has as

Cincinnati Player Badly Injured. Those who attended the polo game
at the rink last evening, between the Cincinnati and Henley teams, were
treated to as exciting a game as has been played on the floor of that rink for some seasons. The crowd was a large one, and was impartial in its approval of the good plays by both sides. The game was called

ly applauded for his exceptionally fine playing. The second inning was also of short duration, Patterson making the goal for the Henleys. In the
iniru inning Cincinnati secarea a goal, made by Rice, At this stage of the game Bayles of the Cincinnati team was badly injured by a fall, strikicg his head with great fone against the floor, but after a few moments' delay he pluckily resumed his position and made the team's goal. The playing of Pugh of Cincinnati was of the highest order, as was also that of Nandand, the center rush for the visitors. In the second inning of the game
Jessup received quite a severe blow between the shoulders; but not of so se.ious a nature as to interfere with the game. That the local team is improving in their general play is a noticeable fact to those who have attended the games since the opening of the season. i

After he had testified the state put on John Williams (a news, paper man), Henry Farwig and Mrs Farwig, on rebuttal, and after they were through, Mrs. Diehl and Mrs.
Jones, mother and sister of the de
fendant, were placed on the stand
for rebuttal. The defense rested at 11 today and
the argument began. Each side was
given lour and a half hours. The
first two speeches of the prosecution
will occupy most of the time today
Prosecutor Steele of Henry county
spoke first, and he was followed by
Prosecutor White of Delaware coun
ty. lhe prosecution will have its
two speeches together, and the third
and closing speech will be made by
Judge Forkner. The other speeches for the defense, will be made this af

the case will get to the jury by noon

Christmas present to vour friend
who smokes, or to your husoand

something that will make him lie like
a pirate in order to tell you it s just
what he wanted. Uive mm some
thing that will keep his friendship
and his truthfulness. Give him
some of Engelbert 's fine cigars, say
one of those twenty hve cigar Christmas boxes of Queen Annes,
Cordovas or Perfectos. Then, wheu
he says it is exactly right, you
will know he s telling the truth
These are standard among the most
fastidious smokers, as well as amonj
all who really know a srood article in
a smoke. They are not an experi

that Christmas comes but once

then should be tne very best in quai
