OPENING OF NEW BANK.
As Others See Progrsssiveness ot Cambria
County Grangers.
The progressive and enterprising
Patrons of Cambria county have organ-
ized a Grange National bank at Patton,
that county. It is capitalized at §60,-
000 and is all paid in. They have pur-
chased a building at a cost of $21,000 on
the very best site in that prosrerous
‘ borough. They have arranged to rent
office rooms enough in the building so
that from the rentals the bank will re-
ceive six per cent upon its investment
above insurance, taxes and have the
banking room free,
Of course, the officers are all mem-
bers of the Grange and the opening
day has been set for August 8th, when
a celebration will be held in keeping
with the importance of the event.
Patrons in Cambria and bordering
counties are invited to attend and
make a personal investigation as to the
character of this financial institution.
It will be ready to receive deposits that
day and every legal working day there-
after from patrons and their friends
and will give to its customers every ac-
commodation that is in keeping with
safe banking regulations.
Brother John G. McHenry, the spec-
jal state grange representative on
banking interests; State Master Hill,
and doubtless other prominent grange
" workers will be present from a dis-
tance. Celebrate ‘‘Harvest Home” by
bringing the boys and girls—the whole
family —and let them start in the right
time on a business life by becoming de-
positors of a few dollars or their sav-
ings of afew pennies in this Grange
National bank. Don’t forget the
date — August 8th. — Pennsylvania

Value or a Familiar Face,
An employee of the Chicage Tribune
once found the fact that his face was
familiar to the late Joseph Medill de-
cidedly to his advantage. In the last
years of his life Mr. Medill did not
spend much time in Chicago and took
no active part in the management of
his paper, but when he was In the city
he went to his office pretty regularly.
He knew all the old faces, but few of
the new ones, and it was too late in life
for him to accustom himself to them,
He never knew to whom to give “copy”
that he wished printed if the managing
editor happened to be absent. On one
occasion he handed some to a repre.
sentative of another paper who chane-
&d to be in the building. The man had
been employed on The Tribune some
years previously, so his face was fa-
miliar to Mr. Medill, while the faces of
the men then actually in his employ
were not.
One day he suddenly inquired what
had become of the old night editor.
“He’s in Boston,” was the reply.
“Well, I want him,” said Mr. Medill
It was explained that the man had
an excellent place in Boston and proba-
bly would not care to come back, but
Mr. Medill persisted that he wanted
him.
“I know him,” he said, “and I want 8
familiar face in that room. I want
some one who isn’t a stranger to me.
Yelegraph him that Medill wants him.”
Bo the man with “the old familiar
face,” although he was not an old man
by any means, went back to The Trib
une op his own terms.—Xouth’s Cony

Curious Mexican Laws.
They have some very curious erimi-
nal laws in Mexico. For instance, it is
twice as much of an offense to muti
late the face of 2 woman as that of 2
man. The law seems to be based on
the idea that a woman’s best posses-
sion is her beauty and that to mar it
does her a great injury.
There is another curious law. If a
person should be wounded in an em-
eounter, the punishment to the offend-
er is fixed by the number of days his
victim has to stay in the hospital or
under a doctor's care. A line is fixed
at 40 days in the way of a general divi-
slon. If the injured man occupies more
than 40 days in his recovery, the pen-
alty doubles up.
An Impudent Fraud,
An impudent fraud was perpetrated
|pon a Manchester bank by one of its
eustomers, who opened an account
with some few hundreds of pounds.
The man, after a few weeks, drew two
checks, each within a pound or so of
his balance, and, selecting a busy day,
presented himself at one end of the
pounter, while an accomplice, when he
saw that his friend’s check had been
cashed, immediately presented his own
to a cashier at the other end. Both
cashiers referred the checks to the
ledger clerk, who, thinking the same
cashier had asked him twice, said
*right” to both checks. The thieves
were never eaught
