lage ofd Crediton by the Sovereign
Bank will place that institution in an
excellent position in that district.
From the time of the establishing of
the Merchants and Sovereign branches
at Crediton it has been evident that
one branch could stiecessfully do the

ations were commenced tend have now
been completed for the transfer of
the lousiness of the Merchants to the

joy and hil;nity suddenly rhaatiged in-
to one of sadness and weeping. An•
swer•e to inquiries as to their where-
abouts only went to intensify their
distress as the informants directed
them wrongly and instead of e.horten-
ing the distance it was being widened.

fruit. From the clothes line of Mrs.
Yager were taken a dress and several
other articles of clothing belonging to
Miss Yager. There are rumors of
other places being entered. No clue
to the guilty party has been found,
but no doubt. like all the rest of his
class he will try it once too often.
Reese et Reuse Notes.
The addition that is being made to
the House of ltefuge by S. S. Cooper
will probably be completed and taken
off the contractors hands in the course
of a few days. It is a two story brick,
the main part 52x62, but in order to
connect with the original part of the
House, there is also a two story exten-
sion between the two, 15x28. In addi-
tion to operating rooms and closets,
the new part will afford accommoda-
tion for about 50 more patients, and is
fitted with steam heating, etc. A. Mc-
Kenzie has been superintendent of
construction; he has looked closely af-
ter the interests of the county, and
says that the work done and material
used has been all that the specifications
called for, and that the building when
completed, will be beyond criticism.
Nicks' Forecasts for July.
July will come to its close with ex•
ceaaively high temperature, or a
marked warm wave spreading from
western to eastern parts of the coun-
try. The second new Moon for the
month falls on the 31st, being within
a few days only of the centre of the
Venus disturbance. These facts in-
sure phenomenal warmth, with hail
and thunderstorms, followed by sud-
den changes to very cool. The {pre.
sense of this Venus period, blending
with the Mars period all through the
central and latter parts of July will
add double intensity to whatever
kind of weather and other phennrnena
may prevail in different extremes of
the country. Sections having drt,
warm weather will find it abnormally
dry and warn); those having storms
and rain may expect such things above
normal.

his arm with that of the city merchant,

san with the capitalist. They were
