PEOPLE’S MARKET, 6 Franklin St. i ) Banking Institutions of th/o Middle Atlantic States Lead 5 the - Country with Total Resources, New England States Come Next. Washington, Dec. §.—With total re- sburces of $430.19 per capita of popu- lation, the banking institutions of the eastern or middle Atlantic states lead the country. The New England states g,om! next with $433.60 per capita: the Dacific states are third with $347.78; the middle western fourth with $190.64; the far western fifth with.$161.35; the southern sixth with $71.19, and the island possessions |tafl off with $5.22 per capita. ‘The United States as a whole shows banking resources per eapita of $237.24, but with the island possessions included the rate is low- ecred to $215.37. These comparisons form a feature of a remarkable report issued today by the mnational monetary commission, giving the results of an inquiry which not only covers substantially every in- corporated bank of any character in the United States, but, for the first time in the history of American bank- ing, presents a tabulation of state- ments showing the condition of all classes of banks-——national, state and i savings and loan and trust companies throughout the country at a given hour, namely, the closeé of business on April 28, 1909. The comptroller of the currency gets such reports periodically from the national banks, the various state bank commissioners and superin- tendents get them from the state hanks, but never before have the facts been tuken simultaneocusly from all the banks of the country. Massachusetts leads the New Eng- land states with total banking re- sources per capita of $517.25; in order following comes Rhode Island, $457.12: Connecticut, $400.48; New Hampshire, ggg& 30; Vermont, $283.14; Maine, 2! 0. New York with $676.07 leads the so- called fastern states; West Virginia heads the southern list with a per capita of $112.6 the middle western group is led by Hlinois with $240.39; Colarado with $250.65 leads the west- ern state list, The Pacific greup is ’SM] by Nevada with a per capita of $12.73.

Passenger on Train from Naugatuck Suddenly Lost All His Teeth. Usually when people lose their teeth it is by the slow process of one 4t a time, says the Naugatuck correspond- ent of tlte Waterbury American, but a man who passed through here on the 11.21 a. m, train yesterday lost a whole mouthful at a clip. The atmosphere inside the car was close and this pas- senger stepped to the platform to get a mouthful of fresh air, and in his anxiety to fill his lungs with ozone opered his mouth & trifle beyond th= regulation limit. The train was get- ting up speed for its southbound ju ney when a breath of fresh air underneath the plate of the mau's $30 set of molars, and ‘before he had time to close his mouth they were gone, By the time he realized the ex- tent of the calamity the train was on its way to Beacon Falls. On reac ing that town he decided to retura to Naugatuck in search of his teeth. Being a stranger in this locality he did not know just where to look for his lost treasures, and exercised a close scrutiny of the track all along the line but wunfortunately ‘without success. It was dinner time and he was hungry, but how to eat without was a problem he could not Visions of being fed with a spoon were not at all of an encourag- ing nature, so he finally decided to hire help to assist him in the search. A willing assistant was soon on hand and in less than ten minutes the lost teeth were restored to the owner. They were found by the side of the rails only a few hundred feet from the sta- tion platform. The man wes delighted to recover his lost teeth and in addi- tion to a profusion of thanks handed the finder a sum of $1.50 for his few minutes’ work. OWNERS DISAGREE. One Who Owns Two-fifths of Valua- ble Land Wishes to Sell. John E. Fisk of Rockville, who owns two-fifths of Rivercliffe, a tract of 1160 acres on the Housatonic river, and said to be worth $20,000, has brought action to the superior court that they order that the tract of land be sold. Granville W. Goodsell owns two-fifths of the tract and Stiles E. Goodsell one-fifth, and the plaintiff alleges that they will not sell as they vant to keep it for speculation and to cut up into building lots. Mr. Fisk says that the property is not advantageous for that kind of treat- ment.—Bridgeport Telegram. COUNTY COMMISSIONERS Report for Year's Business in Middle- sex County.

Through the presence of mind and the exercise of a little common sense on the part of Mrs. Herbert Hendricks, of a rted, and prob- Branciville, Tuesday evening, Iroad wreck was ay many lives were saved. It seems Hendricks, who lives near had occasion to go out upon the tracks soon after the 9.05 freight train gulled through. Looking down she to her consternation that a brake ring had fallen from one of the cars and was wedged in between the frog and the guard rail, in such a manner as to derail any car which| might strile it Attempting to remove the obstruc- tion, she found it impossible, and im- mediately notified the proper authori- ties of the circumstances. A crowd, hearing of the place, hurried to the| scene, and several boys, securing a tongh piece of iron, forced the ob- struction form the tracks. - Mrs. Hendricks was heartily com- mended, and it is probable that she will get some recognition from the railroad company. It was not long ago that Mrs. Hendricks discovered a split rail in time to prevent a wreck.— Norwalk Hour. h Bear Caught in Trap. A big black bear, weighing nearly | 150 pounds, was caught in a log trap field. by Charles Brundage. The| bear, probably the first to be caught| in Connecticut in a decade, is believed | to be one of a family living in the hills | near the pond. For two or three years | rmers and woodcutters have report- ed bear tracks in the snow on the west side of the pond, and the occasional disappearance of small farm animals has been laid to the creature. Turkey All Right. l That great big pie that was to grace} the president’s table on Thanksgiving day was a fake after all, and there wasn't anyone more glad of it than President Taft, and it isn’t at all likely that he would have eaten any of it had it been a real pie. The Taft family had a very enjoyable Thanksgiving dinner around the White House mahogany, it being entirely a family party.

Mrs. Augusta E. Stetson, the excom- muncated founder of the First Church of Christ, Scientist, sent this latter the other day to the secretary of the moth- er church: J. V. Dittemore, Secretar{, the Chris- tian Science Board of Directors, Bos- ton, Mass.: Dear Mr. Dittemore: I have received your favor of the 18th instant, advising me that my name has been dropped from the roll of ‘membership of the mother church. I note with due ap- preciution the hope expresseil in the concluding words, “that your future course of action may show your de- Twenty-thousand-dollar men as mayors are not so common that each one of them should not be known to the entire commonwealth as familiarly as the governor is known. New Bedford never had a mayor for whom corporations with twenty-thousand- dollar salaries were looking, though it is alleged tg have more than one who cost twenty thousand dollars. It has at this moment no candidate in pros- pect who is anywhere near that class, In fact we have noticed no competi- tion among corporations of any degree for the services of any candidate or any impending candidate at any price. If there were, wé have a suspicion that the number of candidates might be sensibly decreased. As for men who are worth, actually or approximately, twenty thousand dollars a year, or half that sum, or a quarter that sum, they exhibit no anxiety for the office as, considering all things, is scarcely to ‘he wondered.—New Bedford Stand- ard.

Kindly convey to each of ‘the di- rectors my sincere wish that we may all assist and rejoice her, by risin, to this possibility of continued separation. The “unity of good” will have destroy- ed the error that has occasioned the present action. Meanwhile I wish for each member of the board of directors a continued increase of fidelity and fruitful service to our beloved leader, and to the cause of Christian Science, of whicl. she is the discoverer, founder, and perpetual head. Very sincerely yours, AUGUSTA B. STETSON. County Option Undesirable. The Connecticut Citizen has taken up the question of county option in matter of liquor licenses and has ask- ed for an expression of opinion. This proposition would mean that the time honored local option for the towns must be abandoned for the more ex- tended option in the counties, We are frank to say right off that we do_not believe the proposed change would be wise from any standpoint. The main objection to the plan, as we see it, is found in the fact that an overwhelming majorit¢ in one large town might dominate the whole coun- ty aad s2 make it possible for saloons to be forced into sections which now are and always have been opposed to license. As we understand it if there is county option, then licenses could be issued in every town in the county. Let us take Fairfield county as an example. On a_ question of licens Bridgeport would be sure to give an where from three to five thousand ma- jority in favor of the license placs Danbury, Norwalk, Stamford and Greenwich would add to this, to say nothing of the smaller towns. There connot be any doubt but that the coun- ty would be overwhelmingly for licernise. What then would be the result? All the: towns now licensed would have the privilege, and in addition Trumbull, Monroe, Bethel, Easton, New Fairfield, Redding, Wiiton, Weston, Ridgefield and Sherman would have license thrust upon them when they did not want it. Clearly the propositiom is not in ac- cord with the best interests of the peo- ple. Twenty-Thousand-Dollar Men. A visitor to Lowell asked of a cit- jzen: “Why do you Lowell people not do what we have done? We have for mayor the head of such-and-such a company—a man that any major cor- poration would be glad to pay $20,000 a vear for all his time; and we get a really business administration as a re- sult.” What city that is we do mot know, though that is perhaps a con- fession of Gnpardonable ignorance.
