I The Commofplal National bank of Odoil
Jias boon released from the control of the
banking board and trill bo allowed to go into
Voluntary liquidation. This action is the
( result of a most unusual expression of confl-
pcnco on the part of the depositors of the

bf the bank's liabilities , and- tendered the i
examiner a check for the sum. ' ou condition
that Monroe Robinson , the ex-president and

grand master from Lincoln , and Grand Uop-

things the grand muster said :
Wo nreia happy , Joyous , prosperous

our treasury well filled with funds to supply
the needs of these who are sick and In dis
tress. Wo also keep on hand-n largo and
valuable fund of friendship , love and
sympathy for the suffering humanity , Our
secrets are to guard this sacred treasury
against the parasites of humanity.
Thrro are thousands of human vultures
wandering over this world who arc too lazy
to labor , nnd who by reason of their vicious
and Immoral conduct nro unworthy to
associate with bouest people and who a'ro
coiitltmally practicing tholr parasitical
pursuits , of living upon the fruits of honest
labor , performed by other human * bomgs.
Our secrets bar them out of our society , nnd
no honest person will condemn us bc-
cnuso of such socrots. The dishonest man
would llko to son our secrets swept away
for the same reason thut the burglar would
llko to sco thu banner strike the bolts and
bars from off his vault.
"In tills wondrous world \vbcro man nnd
woman scorn to hold full sway to lord it over
alt other living things , and full control of
wealth and power and everything which
brings to them the Joys nnd comforts of
life , tncro are manv who nbuso the privi
leges granted them by tlieir Maker and seek
to usurp tho. rights and powers of other
human beings. Worn it not for such vrickod
usurpation of power , born of selllsh instincts
and fostered nnd fed by thoughts of grcod ,
of gain and unholy ambitions , thcro would
bo no necessity for institutions such as the
Independent Order of Odd Follows. Perse
cution , fraud , deceit and countless other
wrongs would not exist nnd friendship and
love would 1111 the heart of men with gener
ous sympathy nnd all the world would llvo

MUST 1'J.r IN OOLD ,
Such Is the Notice Glvon Its Customers
by n Hie Import In c Drug : Store.
NEW YORK , July 11. A dispatch
from Pittsburg reports a fooling of dis
satisfaction among the big drug houses )
in that city. It is said that the trouble
arises from a circular letter sent out by.
W. H. Schiollin & Co. of this city to the
effect that for the present all payments
for imported drugs purchased through
their liouso must bo made in gold and .
that no silver would bo taken.
At the olllco of W. II. Schioflin & Co.
Manager Tompkins Bald : "Wo nro not
demanding gold for our goods. Wo
have tnkon precautionary stops , pure
nnd simple , in the event of gold goln to ;
n premium' All the druggists" under
stand , " said Mr. Tompkins , "that rwo
have to pay the European houses won
gold nnd , further , that wo nro simply ;
protecting ourselves in these uncertain
times against gold going to n premium.
Other largo houses in the city have
adopted the same measures. "
The idea thnt importers would gen
erally follow the load of Schiollin & Co.
is not borne out by investigation. All
branches of trade m this cityappear to
jegnrd this notion as unnecessary nnd
unwiBo , in that it might tend to place
gold at a premium , the very danger
which they fear would disturb business
and destroy confidence , A number of
drug linns which were called upon today
disclaim any intention of making such lya
request. A. number of dry goods houses
have made it n practice for a long time
to have printed on 'tholr bill heads ,
"Payment requested .iu gold. " Tills Is
no now fcaturo nnd > i entirely a pre
cautionary measure of traditional stand
ing. /
The clearing housor issued today $250-
000 worth" of loan certificates. The bank
taking them donosito'd the collateral
last week , but did not , cull for the certifi
cates until this morning. The largest
banks in Wall street-report a slight de ,
mand for currency from the west , all

by a return of currcfaby to Now York

I
is an arbitrary word used to designate the
only bow ( ring ) which cannot he pulled off
Ihe watch.
Hero's the idea
The bow has a croove
on each end. A collar
runs down Inside the
pendant ( stem ) and
lit * Into the grooves ,
firmly locking the
bow to the pendant ,
so that it cannot be
pulled or twisted off ,
It positively prevents the loss of the
watch by theft , and avoids injury to it from
dropping.
IT CAN ONLY BE HAD with
Jas. Boss Filled or other watch
cases bearing thla tradfc rnark
All watch dealers sell them without extra cost.
Ask your jeweler for pamphlet , or send to
the manufacturers.
