THE DAILY PIONEER FAVOR BOARD ON CHARTERS Minnesota Bankers Would Limit Num. ber of New Institutions. St. Paul, Dec. 23.—Six hundred rep- resentatives of Minnesota state banks in convention here went on record, with but one dissenting vote, in favor of the enactment by the legislature of a law giving to some board or com- mission the power to refuse bank charters when in its opinion the or- ganization of such bank or banks would be detrimental to the best in- terests of the people.” The vote was taken at the request of Albert H. Turrittin, state superin- tendent of banks, after a resolution had been introduced by M. T. Dunm, president of the Citizens’ State bank of Brainerd. This resolution contem- plated giving to the superintendent the power to grant and deny charters at his discretion, but Mr. Turrittin and others objected to this as giving too much authority to one man. WOULD BATTLE IN EUROPE Japanese Want CGovernment to. Send Troops There. Tokio, Dec. 24.—Demonstrations are being held with the object of urging the government to send troops to Eu- rope. This is calculated to distract the opposition to the increase of the army. Leading newspapers argue that it is not clear that the allied governments snd people really desire to have the Japanese take part in the European war. Japan, they say, in attacking Tsingtau simply acted in accordance with the terms of the Anglo-Japanese alliance. 1t also is pointed out that while the country is making arduous efforts to increase the army by two divisions it is not consistent to say it can spare 500,000 men for Europe. RULES AGAINST DANCE HALL Judge Holds Chicago Levee Center Must Stay Closed. s Chicago, Dec. 24.—Freiberg’s dance ‘hall, against which frequent com- plaints were made while it was a cen- ter of activity in the levee district, must remain closed. The license of the place was revoked by the mayor several months ago and the circuit court has denied a petition for a writ to compel the municipal chief to re- issue the revoked dram shop and amusement hall licenses. In support of the petition it was de clared that Freiberg’s was being dis criminated against. The court, how- ever, ruled that the mayor had exer- cised his revoking power properly.

Chicago, Dec. 24.—Christmas busi- ness at_the Chicago postoffice is near- ly double the amount of last year, ac- cording to announcement by Postmas- ter Daniel Campbell.

The aged prelate is suffering from bronchitis and pneumonia. ‘He is eighty-two years old, having been born at Cologne in 1832. THE BI6 GHRISTMAS HE trust magnate was break- fasting sitting opposite his handsome, haughty looking wife. The room was done in oak and tapestry, and in the great fire- place a fire of Yule logs burned. He was iron gray, thin, tired looking, with an occasional attractive twinkle in his eye. She was inclined to be stout: her bair was snow white, elabo- rately dressed. A shadowy sweetness lingered in the corners of her mouth. “Do you remember one Christmas day, so many years ago.” she question- ed him. “when we were so poor we had no dinner?” “Clearly. And now we have no di- gestions,” he remarked. “And one Christmas when you were so ill and we were in a hotel and so uncomfortable?" He nodded cheerfully. “You are forgetting the big Christ- mas.” he remarked. “We've had so many of them togeth- er,” she said, “it makes me feel quite old and a little bit sad.” “Think back,” be said, “to one Christ- mas night that we were together in a TR il sleigh on the old mill road. There were stars in the sky. and it was cold. You were snuggling close to me”— “Why, Harry. we weren't engaged then.” “You were one of those snugglesome girls, Mary. 1 repeat, you were crowd- ing me some, but 1 didn’t mind it You wore a red knitted hood tied nn- der your chin and a—a tippet—yes. that's it. a tippet of white fur with little black specks on it like a cat.” “Ermine, you foolish boy.” “And suddenly we bumped over something and you were scared, and the next thing—you had kissed me.” “It was you that kissed me. The idea—why"— “How could 1? deliberately kissed me. Mary. deny it after all these years.” *1 don’t remember it.

But that delight- ful bump in the road broke the ice. 1 dropped the reins and asked you to marry me. You said yes. You remem- ber now. don't you?" She was blushing faintly, and the shudow;s that had been dimples deep- ened at her lips. She nodded her head. “The horse jumped.
