NEW BANKING ‘LAW. OPERATIVE UPON JULY FIRST Governor Frazier Has Not Named Members of Depositors Guaranty Fund ‘North Dakota's new ‘bank deposit guaranty law will go into effect July 1 and considerable interest attaches to the operation of the act. Depositors’ Board. Governor Frazier has not yet named the appointive members of the de- positors’ guaranty fund commission. This ‘board is to be composed of five members, the governor, the state ex- aminer and three bankers, members in good standing of the North Dakota State Bankers’ association, to be nom- inated by this association and appoint- ed by the governor. By popular ballot the association has selected from a field of 11 candi-| dates nine nominees, from whom the governor is to make his choice of three. The Guaranty Fund. A guaranty fund is created ‘by levy- ing an assessment of 1-20 of one per cent of the average daily deposits as shown by statements to be filed cov- ering a year’s operations levied against each ‘band in the state. Emer- gency assessments may be made when- ever the fund shall be depleted. After the fund attains a certain maximum assessments will cease until the amount again falls below that stand- ard. (Should a ‘bank failure occur, there will be appropriated from this fund an amount sufficient to repay every depositor 100 per cent of his principal. VALLEY CITY IN BALA DRESS.

HUNDREDS PAY HONOR TO GARRISON PRIESTS Benedictine Fathers of St, Nich- Olas Church Celebrate Fif- teenth Anniversary Garrison, N. D., June 20 —Revs. Bonaventure Hansen and Robert Me- mers, O. S. B., pastors of St. Nichclas church, with the aid of Garrison citi- zens on the occasion of the annual feast of the Sacred Heart of Jesus celebrated the fifteenth anniversary of their elevation to the priesthvod. The assisting priests were Rev. Tim- othy Meijuerus, 0. 8. B., as deacon, and Rev. Eugene Moederhoff, 0' S. B., as subdeacon. Special music was. of- fered by the choir, under the direc: tion of Rev. Peter Fehrenhach, O. S. E., of Elbowoods. Large numbers of people motored in from Underwood. Turtle Lake and other polats served by the local clergy, to atterd the fes- tive mass. Balated Christmas Gifts 4350 Years On Way to Owner Mrs. Minnie C. Budlong, secretary of the North Dakota public library com- mission, received today two belated Christmas gifts respectively 4,300 and 4,350 years on the way. Of course, when they started for Bismarck they didn’t know they were to be Christ- mas gifts, for they were created 23 centuries before the advent of Christ; nor did they know much about Bis- marck. Babylon and Sodom and Go- morrah and Niniveh were the big cities of that day. Even Fargo hadn’t deen dreamed of then. And the little messengers that arrived today didn’t “really start out to be gifts at all, but | were issued as very important and| official receipts, just as your store- Look who’s here! Charles Ed- ward Russell, famous American and long time correspondent for the Tribune, kicking his boots under the bed in the ex-czar’s winter palace in Petrograd!

From Ruins of Jopha. The gifts, which are highly prized by their owner, are small, clay tab- lets excavated from the ruins of the city of Jopha, an <mportant munici- pality of the Ur-nina dynasty of the Assyrians. The older, which dates back to 2,350 B. C., is an official re- ceipt for the delivery of certain cat- tle and other farm products, and to prevent alteration it is stamped with a formal seal which resembles very much seals seen on public Chinese documents of this day. The younger of these tablets runs back only 2,300 years before Christ. It is the more interesting of the two, however, as it is a reecipt for some animals delivered to the priests of the temple for sacri- fice. 2: Cuniform Writing. The writing on both of the tablets is perfectly legible to anyone familiar with the cuniform style. The inden- tations are remarkably clear and sharply outlined. They could not be more so had the clay tablets been molded and baked yesterday, and Dr. Edgar. J. Banks of Alpine, N. J., noted archaeologist and author of “The Bible of the Spade,” who presented them to Mrs. Budlong, guarantees them to be genuine and the dates to be authentic. The traces of the fin- gers which 43 centuries ago molded these tablets are as plain as Bertillion measurements made only a few hours —_—— BE ORTINISTIC Here’s Good ‘News for Bismarck Resi- dents. ~ Have you a pain in the small of the ack? Headaches, _—dizziriess, — nervous spells? Are you languid, irritable and weak? Annoyed ‘by urinary disorders? Don't despair—profit by Bismarck experiences. Bismarck people know Doan's Kid- ney Pills—have used them—recom- mend them. Here’s a Bismarck man’s statement: J. W. Serres, proprietor of Banner House, says: ble me an awful lot. I had backache and pains in my neck. 1 knew that my kidneys were out of order and used Doan’s Kidney Pills. They strengthened my kidneys, removed the backache and made me feel fine.” Price 50c at all dealers. Don’t sim- ply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Serres had. Foster-Milburn Co., Mfers., Buffalo, N. Y. since, and as one handles the little tablets he begins to feel strangely in- timate-with Nebuchadnezzar, Cyrus and other kings of eld and to have a contempt for the cheaply modern caesars and the later pharoahs. The gifts were mailed from New Jersey last December and had been wandering over the continent until their receipt by Mrs. ‘Budlong this week. 6,000 TEXAS. RANGE - CATTLE SOLD; (00 WORE ON THE ROAD Demand for Feeders in Western “Lumbago used to trou-|@ North Dakota Unusually Large—Pass Inspection “The demand for good feeding stock in North Dakota is remarkable,” said Dr. W. F. Crewe, secretary of the North Dakota live stock sanitary dvoard, this morning. “The King Com- mission company at Mandan within the last few weeks has shippin in and sold 5,000 Texas range yearling heifers, and I have just been issued a permit for bringing in 1,100 more.” Everyone, Dr. Crewe states, seems to ‘be feeding cattle, and North Da- kota will have plenty of food to mar- ket on the hoof next fall if there ts sufficient rain to make good grass. The cattle which have been sold at Minot are Hereford whitefaces of a good type. They will make several hundred pounds more beef on the suc- culent grasses of North Dakota than they would if matured on their native ranges, and Dr. Créwe is of the opin- ion that anyone who feeds cattle this summer is due to earn good money.
