BRANCH BANKS ARE

DECLARED ILLEGAL

Att'y General Bingham Gives

Such an Opinion.

BILLHEIMER FINDS SCHEME

Pursuant to a written opinion from

Attorney General James Bingham to the effect that they have no legal right

to operate branch banks. Auditor of

State John C. Billhelmer has demand

ed of a number of state and private

banks throughout Indiana that they

cease operating their branch banks

In most Instances the banks have

compiled. From others the auditor is

awaiting a reply to his order. One

bank, the State Bank of Valparaiso,

111 contest the auditor's right to

such action.

Auditor Billhelmer had known for

some time that branch banks were be

ing operated and the question arose in his mind as to whether the banks had

a right to do so. He reached the con

elusion that there was no warrant of

law for their existence and that it would be possible for such banks to

conduct all of their business in the branch banks and thus escape state supervision. In the case of failure of

any one of the branch banks all would

probably become Insolvent. The auditor, therefore, submitted three questions to the attorney general for an opinion, desiring to know whether a state or private bank could legally be established, whether a bank could do business at a place not named In its articles of incorporation, and whether the auditor had the authority to order their discontinuance or examine and supervise them. Attorney General Bingham says that the auditor can order their discontinuance or examine or supervise them under the law of 1835 and 1873 and the private banking acts of 1905 and 1907. The 1907 law, however, he says, does not become effective until December.

LIGHT LUNCHEONS FOR HOT DAYS. Summer-time is the season when light refreshments of some kind are needed almost every day for little trips

and outings to entertain casual guests and for luncheon on days too warm for

heavy foods.

Thero are many summer-time biscuit

and wafers baked by the National Bis

cult company and packed in packages that keep out all dampness and dust of

travel and absolutely preserve the orig Inal oven freshmness of the contents

Among the most popular of these dainties are Social Tea Biscuit. They are

so appropriate for many different occa

alons that a few packages in the house

prepares you to serve a light refresh

ment wtthout a moment's notice.

Social Tea Biscuits are a real food, but so light and unusual that they

tempt the appetite and make a welcome

accompaniment to luncheon, dessert

or dinner a social cup of tea or cool ing beverage.

Always serve Social Tea Biscuit from the original package, because then you are sure that no dust or dampness has reached them and that you will enjoy

a their original freshness of flavor.

Glimpses of a Few Sea Ports. The Rev. T. J. Graham Writes of His Recent Trip Abroad.

Down the coast, 343 Knots and the world-famed bay of Naples greeted us. The feature of our anchoring here wa3 our troublesome time in doing so. My frlend3 have asked me about it, as the cables reported an accident at this point. In short, we arrived at 5 p. m., February 16th and it was 7 p. m. before we were safely anchored. The harbor pilot and a mean breeze in a congested harbor combined first to have our anchar dropped so closely to the steamship "Kaiser William der Grosse " .that it caught

longer one returning, I wa3 glai to make tny exit. The city 13 densely populated with a low lived crowd of citizens. Captain McAuley said "These Neapolitans were past masters in thievery and fraud when our fore fathers on the British Isles were in a most primitive state." A relative in Edenburg. Scotland told me of some bronzes he had purchased in Naples about one year ago, with the understanding they were to be paid for in full after received and inspected. At this time they had been on

the ship deck for six months as in-

in her anchor chain and the chain of spection was refused and he refused

our anchor had to be severed and the anchor lost for the time. In the maneuvering, our ship struck in a side fashion the steamship "Princess Irene" and knocked the bow sprit off the steamship "Atalanta." There was no great danger to life but there was

to property and excitement prevail

ed for some time. The call at

Naples was simply over night and a

half day more going Eastward ana to see Pompeii and the city further we revisited Naples on our return from

Greece. Up very early and to land, in order to make good use of every half day, we were amused at the meth

od of delivering pure milk to the people by driving herds of cows and goats

through the 6treets and producing the

pure goods in the presence of the customer. Also the very small open carriages and small horses which arj so common. They look like affairs for children but several grown-ups, pile

in and the driver sometimes in mercy

walks the hilly streets. Bargaia as

you will with the driver, you will find the neapolitan hack man will attempt to hold you up. We drove up the

hill to the king s summer palace for a view of the bay and Vesuvius, then very quiet, but were disappointed as sight seer's often are by the heavy

haze which hung about the harbor. Naples was a place which even with the many attractions there and in the

vicinity had no abiding fascinations for me. On the visit going and the

to accept as bronzes and other art treasurers ordered are not sure to be the same when delivered as many have found to their chargin. The Modern Alexandria, reached after 100 knots from Naples and the most costly portion of the voyage, probably because of little competition, is much like any more modern European city, well built and busy. It is the European and Asiatic gate way water to Egypt. It lies low with the usual Citadel back a distance. The sights are mainly the Catacombs, Pompey's pillar and some miles out of the city Ramleh, the summer resort of Egypt on the sea and higher up, reached by a splendid trolly system. The Khediral store houses are here. Our guide In Alexandria we understood to say had been connected with the British army and had thus acquired English. We thought we had an old soldier until later examining his credentials we found his connection with the army was to the extent of selling eggs and butter to the" English barracks. Being at Alexandria, we had arrived' somewhere to stay awhile anyhow and could realize we were in Egypt, though a heavy shower poured out its welcome for us in the land where It doesn't rain, that is very much, some miles from the sea ports and in Upper Egypt. Next we'll get our eye on the Land of Monuments, Mysteries and Moslems.

Shelbyville Is the Storm Cen

Shelbyville, Ind., July 10. The John

Ttoblnson circus men who arrived in

town a few days ago have leased almost every window in the business dis

trict of Shelbyville for their lithograph, and they are covering many of the walls of buildings in the city with

banners. Thursday a force of men from the Hagenbeck-Sells shows arrived to begin the work of billing the city and Shelby county for their attraction. A fight Is now on to secure advertising space and one of the circuses has rented all the telephone poles in the business part of the city. Upstairs windows are now at a premium in the business part of the town, hundreds of them being filled with lithographs. The Robinson show will be here Aug. 7, and the Hangenbeck-Wallace shows will follow nine days later. Within the "next ten days the advertising men for the Forepaugh-Sells circus will be here to begin advertising that show, which will visit this city Sept. fi.

STANLEY FAMILY REUNION. It Will Be Held July 21 at Glen Miller Park. The Stanley family reunion will be held Sunday, July 21st, at Glen Miller Park.

One hundred and fifty firemen are required on some of the Atlantic liners.

An order has been sent out to Penn

sylvania agents, yardmasters, train

men, enginemen and other railroad men along the lines that fewer messages must be sent and the telegraph

wires not used when a letter or note

will answer the purpose as well. The order reads that about a year ago not

many messages were sent by the men

along the line, but since that time the

practice has outgrown itself, nearly

every man along the line using the tel

egraph, rushing the operators and delaying more important messages. SHOP VERY BUSY. The C, C. & L. shops at Peru, and in fact all along the line are one scene of busy hustlers who have more work on hand and more work coming in every day than they can possibly send out on time. Especially the men at the shops, since the road has been running between Cincinnati and Chicago, have been on the go. During the past few weeks the forces have been somewhat increased and if present conditions keep up, which they most surely will, more men will be needed to turn out the great demand for work that Is sent to the Peru shops

A SMALL SECRET Couldn't Understand the Taste of His Customers.

Two men were discussing the various food products now being supplied in such variety and abundance. One, a grocer, said, "I frequently try a package or so of any certain article before offering it to my trade, and in that way sometimes form a different idea than my customers have. For instance, I thought I would try some Postum Food Coffee, to see what reason there was for such a call for it. At breakfast I didn't like it and supper proved the same, so I natural

ly concluded that my taste was different from that of the customers who

bought It right along.

A day or two after, I waited on a

lady who was buying a 25c package and told her I couldn't understand

for repairing engines and the various

kinds of railroad work.

A force of men has been put to work

at Griffith to build a new round house to accommodate the heavy work out of

Chicago.. As mentioned, the men are

now working on the new building and

it is hoped by the company to have it

completed as soon as possible. The

new structure will contain at first four

large stalls, but it is said after a short while, as soon as the conditions are better, more stalls will be added. The other improvements which will be made by the C, C. & L. immediately are numerous, and thousands of dollars have been and will be spent. There will be new yards at Slippery Cut, the plans of which have just been made public. The building of the new yards at that point is on account of the heavy traffic out of Brighton, near Cincinnati, but five miles out. It is probable that the new yards at Slippery Cut will be used for storage and the switching will be done at Brighton. The work on the new yards will, it 5s said, begin at once. ALL GETA SHARE. Since the Hepburn law became effective or Its substitute was enacted, there is no such thing as one line of a road beating another. All business now goes exactly the way it is routed and no other. One system of roads can not control freight movement. PLAN NOT SUCCESSFUL. The experiment which was started

last autumn at the time of extreme freight congestion, to pool freight cars on a scientific basis by the railroads, has ended unsuccessfully. The con

gestion itself was the real cause of the

experiment and the prospects of lifting the congestion is probably the most

Important factor in its abandonment

The plan of pooling cars, according to

a leading railroad man who is fully in touch with the association's purposes

and objects, has proven entirely inade

quate to the demands of the situation

A report has been received here

from Boyonbong, Nueva Vizcaya. says the Manilla Times "to the effect that

the bodies of two Ilongotes were found

each having been severed and carried

off by the head-hunters. According to

the report the bodies had not been identified, but from the clothing they appear to be of a savage tribe in the mountains. In March and September

SHERIFFS CLAIM TO BE LOSING MONLY

Insist That They Are Not Paid Enough for Feeding of Prisoners.

COMPARISONS ARE MADE.

IT IS ASSERTED THAT SHERIFF MEREDITH IS TOO LIBERAL WITH THE MEN UNDER HIS CHARGE HERE.

Sheriff Meredith is a firm believer that the Indiana law regulating the remuneration for feeding the prisoners in the. county jail should be changed, as under the existing circumstances, he says, sheriffs over the state are losing money by feeding the prisoners for forty cents per day, the price granted by the state. In Illinois the sheriffs receive fifty cents and In Ohio sixty

cents per day, for each prisoner and in

tnis way, it is said, the snerurs can "break even" with the advanced prices

of food materials and produce.

It has been suggested to Sheriff Meredith that he feeds the Wayne county

prisoners too well, and that by the ex

cellent meals he sets out to those confined, they are inclined to want to vis

it the sheriff again. The opinion has

been expressed among local police

court attaches that if the sheriff would "let down" a little on his elaborate bills of fare he could come within touching distance of the cost of the food. They also feel that the prisoners should not be supplied with a large amount of food, as this is what many of them are hankering for. With a good bed and plenty to eat, many of the habitual police court characters would rather stay in jail than be out. Being from Williamsburg, where

tnere is nothing but bounty, as far as meals are concerned. Sheriff Meredith

says he does not have the heart to

short-feed his prisoners.

There is a class of well-defined "phobias," as they are called, with which nerve sufferers are plagued. "Monophobia," or fear of being alone; "castrophobla," or fear of closed-ln spaces; "goraphobia," or fear of crowds or of broad open spaces; "insomniaphobla," or fear of not going to sleep, and many others. The one

great remedy for all these and similar mental miseries, writes Dr. Samuel McCornb in Good Housekeeping is auto-suggestion.

WOMAN'S RXGKHTS. The Dignity and Sacrodncss of Motherhood Think of the greatest man who has ever lived upon this earth, and then think of him as he lay, an infant, in his mother's arms. Docs it seem possible that he should have grown, become great in the world's estimate and perhaps had monuments erected to perpetuate his memory, and yet that the world should have forgotten even the name of the woman who bore him ? The sou's work is the mother's primarily and, therefore, the recognition of the dignity and tender sacredncss of motherhood should no longer be delayed. It is high time that this country's greatest treasures THE WOMEN WHO HAVE CONTRIBUTED LARGELY TO make it what it is should be recognized. Why should not these good mothers be given the right to vote and have a voice in our government a right that is accorded to some of the most ignorant, most insignificant and vilest of men ? It has been well said that "for every monument to a great man there should be a monument to his mother and the mother's monument should be built first."

Delicate, weak, nervous women should especially shun the use of alcoholic medicines which, from their stimulating and exhi'erating effects mav soem, for a time, to do good, but which, from the inevitable effecU of the alcohol in shrinking up the red corpuscles of the blood, are sure to do great and lasting harm in the long run. Besides they beget a craving for stimulants which is most deplorable. Favorite Prescription" is the one remedy for woman's ill which contains no alcohol. Only invigorating and nerve strengthening eecu can follow the use of this famous medicine for women. It can not possibly do harm in any state or condition of the system. If a woman has bearing down, or dragging pains, low down in the abdomen, or pelvis, backache, frequent

headaches, dizzy or fainting spells, is nervous and easily startled, has gnaw, ing feeling in stomach, sees imaginary floating specks, or spots before her eyes, Iwis melancholia, or blues," or a weakening disagreeable, catarrhal drain from pHvic organs, she can make no mistake by resorting to the uie of Dr. Tierce's Favorite Prescription. It will invigorate and toue up u.a whole system and especially the p-lv!c organs. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pr5Tiption is a scientific medicine, car? fnliy devised by an exptrienced and ski.'itul physician, and adapted to worr,an' delicate system. Being ma3 of native American medicinal roots, and without alcohol, it is perfectly harmW in its effects in any condition of the female syttem.
