Last Thursday evening, the barn on

covered to be on fire and was con
sumed as there was no way of fight

Did Very Clever Work
With the construction of the Man

places which derearrd Thsmin Fen
some panel3 for later decoration
These panels were artistically
decorated with mosaic work concrete
with stones inlaid and with the many
ciinrs made a most artistic bit of
work. One panel contains the form
er school building, which wa3 con
structed in 1SS1 and which served for
a half century as a place of instruc
tion for the young people of this com
munity, in which the building was
shewn in miniature in many colors of
stone work and stands there a memor
ial of the service to education for the
fifty years and a testimony to the
very clever work cf Mr. Jamison. An
other panel was used to depict the
pyramids and is also a very fine bit
of work, while a third panel shows
an cpen book, which signifies the ac
quisition of learning and from it a
ladder reaching upwards, signifying
that by continued application to ones
tasks and to study it is possible to
climb round by round up the ladder
cf progress and fame, and also that
it is up to most of us what we make
of ourselves. When in Manley take a
peep at this bit of very fine work.

DENY REHEARING IN

New banking law was written in
to the records Friday when the su
preme court, in an opinion by Judge
Frost, acting as a member of the
court affirmed the action of the dis
trict court of Dawes county in liti
gation involving a draft issued by
the First State bank of Alliance and
which had not made the rounds of
the mails before the bank was closed.
The draft represented a deposit in
the bank by the clerk of t.'m district
court, who was custodian of funds
realized from the Kale of lands un
der an order of partition, and who
used a check on theco fund.; with
which to buy the draft sent to the
party to whom the money wa3 due.
The court says that even tho a de
posit made in a bank by a clerk of
th flic-trict court is made out of
trust funds which are known to be
such by an executive officer of the
bank, still, when the representative
of the beneficiaries of that trust fund
asks the clerk 'to. purchase a draft
in payment thereof and in response
he receives and accept-; the draft so
purchased, he becomes a creditor of
the bank and loae bin right to any
preference which he may have had
over the depositor.".
A purchase cf a bar.k draft, the
court holds, is a purchaser of the
bank's credit and a holder of ex
change, and as ruoh J3 entitled to
share pro rata with depositors and
other holders of exchange in the as
sets of a failed bank and in the de
positor final settlement fund, but,
in the absence cf spe-ial circum
stances, is not er.tltlod to have his
claim allowed as a trim fund. No
such special circumotanccs arc found
to exist in the case c.t bar.
