thing- to consider in depositing money, in a bank is
security. The capital and surplus are 'the depositors
protection fund. Our capital is $50,000.00. Our surplus
is $50,000.00. This makes a depositors guarantee fund
of $100,000.00. The

Exchange Pastorates.
The many Alliance friends of Rey.
and Mrs. J, L. Vallow will regret to
learn that they are soon to leave the
city. Arrangements have been com
pleted for the transfer of Mr, Vallow
to the pastorate of the First M. E.
church at Elkins, W. Va., the present
pastor, Dr. J. L. P. Jones, coming to
Alliance. The transfer will be, made
about July 1st.
During their residence of about three
year here, Rev. Vallow and bjM
iamuy nave tormeu a large circle 01 nc
quauitanees, whicn means a I tirge num
ber of friends, who will' sincerely re
gret to see them leave, but who will
wish them well in their new home. It
is no flattery to say that Mr. Vallow Is
a preacher of exceptional ability, and
that the church hcrehasbeen strength
ened by his ministry. We consider tho
church that secures his services for
tunate. v
Dr Jones' district superintendent
says that he is one of tht; great preach
ers of Methodism On behalf of the
church he is to berve and the city of
which he is to become a cituen, we
gladly extend to Dr. Jones and his fam
ily a cordial welcome.

New Moving Picture
and Vaudeville Show.
John Wallace and E. Becker, com
monly known as "Bill," are us busy as
bees this week getting ready to open
their new moving picture and vaude
ville show in the building at the south
east corner of Box Uuttu nveune and
j Dakota street, ono block north of tho
(Burlington station, on east side of
street. They are getting the largo
room fixed up in "ship shape" unci will
iiavo everything urn ml new. They
promise the best In their line, and will
give their opening performance next
Monday night.
Beal Bros, will continue to have their
ofllce in the south-west roomr but tho
entry will be fco arranged that this will
not interfere with the show, neither
will the show make any difference with
their business.
Enjoyed Convention.
Rev. J. M. Huston writes the editor
from Chicago, under date of May 17, as
follows:
'If tho comet does not hit the earth,
or any other calamity befall us, we
will be home for next Sunday. Will
you kindly announce mc for next Sun
day b, m.: 'Echoes from N. B Conven
tion'; 8:00 p.m., 'Gospel Service.' We
have had the time cf our lives."
Evidently Mr. Huston did not think
of the union service to be held Sunday
evening for the annual sermon Of the
High school graduating class, hence
we take the liberty of announcing no
service at the Baptist church at that
time.
S. K. Warrick came over from Alli

after a short business call on the Minn
