Tho Curtis Bros., successful small town bankers, made their headquarters in Grant Park, a-few 'miles from Kan kakee. They owned a string of twenty three banks throughout the State. Curtis ana femtui were closo business and poli tical associates. The State will attempt to show that. "when Small became Treaturer, he de posited $10,000,000 of tho State's funds in the Grant Turk bank, a private in stitution . organized and owned by the Curtis Bros. This bank, the prosecution contends did not do a regular banking business. The State will attempt to show that it was organized merely to handle loans of State money. Small's defense is determined to show the bank was a regular, legitimate bank ing institution. On receiving the State's money, for which the only security given was a certificate of deposit. . the Grant Park bank is alleged to have negotiated a loan to Armour & Compnay and Swift & Company, Chicago packers, for $10. 000,000 worth of their short-time notes, uii wm'.ii me packers paid about 7 per urut interest, me bank, in orsmprui master; S.

A letter went out Monday nornin i iv4iife an aucgeu pront oilllu W. R. Matthews, leaving Charlotte Monday for Raleigh to attend the spe cial session of the Legislature, said that if local game laws come up for any additional legislation at all, he would make an effort- to have a law passed which would forbid the killing this county for a contin of five years. Mr. Matthews was cognizant of tlfe statement made by Senator DeLaney that if the amended laws as passed by tho recent Legislature were intend ed to make it legal for hotels, res taurants and cafes to serve queil, he would see to it that the law was changed again to read as it did prior to the insertion of this amendment at the lust session of the Legislature. Mr. Matthews declared that he had been approached by many farmers who thought they ought to be entitled to a voics :n the framing of any game laws. Inasmuch as the birds live in their holds and inasmuch, also, as il is the farms of the county which are aided by these insect-destroying game. And these farmers. Mr. Matthews in- Squires, j timated, had asked him to pass a law which would make it illegal for any body, either from the city or county, under any pretext whatsoever, to kill a partridge within the limits of the county for a period of five years. Farmers believe, said Mr. Matthews, that with the corninsr of the boll weev il, quail will be indispensable to the cotton growers by reason of their live lihood on all sorts of insects and bugs that roam and rage in the fields and some experts have contended that if there were partridges enough in tho South, the boll weevil would never have Mia do such headway as it has. Mr. Matthews is prepared to intro duce a bill to his effect if any effort is made to tamper with the laws as they now relate to the preservation of game in this county. He felt, when he left here, that the Legislature would not likely take some such pri vate matters as this, but in the event that the proposition was asitated at all, he said he would have this bill ready to introduce. He felt sure the other members of the county delega tion would co-operate with him in this Estimated Expenditures Of Federal Government approximately 4 ner cent tn tha h.v Packers claim they knew nothing of the feource of the monev.

R. H. Graham, division passenger agent of the Southern Railway here, has received information that not less than twenty sleeping cars are already booked to bring passengers from Ashe ville, Greensboro, High Point, Raleigh, Durham. Hamlet and many other points in North Carolina as well as from points in South Carolina. Never before have more than ten s'ueh cars been parked at one time here for a ceremon ial and the fact that twenty ar? already booked and that others will nrobahlv be booked before the big- event is over is taken as a siginficant fact and one that insures such a crowd of visitors as never came to Charlotte, or any place in the state for that matter, since Oasis Temple was organized, for such an occasion. The affair promises not only to ri'icr a maximum number of Mamns anH Shriners and candidates but a reat many representatives of families of bhriners and their friends. The oc casion will beyond doubt be the most picturesque event that has taken place in Charlotte in a Ions: while, it is said by members of the Shrine, and others having a part in the preparations.
