' THE CUB FAN'S DREAM.
"Lum uiulu," Ue said, with shin
ing eyes,
"I dreamed that Chance was
buck.
1 dreamed that Steiny's wallop
Once more led the old attack.
I seemed to see Joe Tinker make
Au old time Tinker spear,
And bear J. Evers barking
lu the shaking umpire's ear.
And. like a dream of heaven,
Where the feathered angels
sing,
I beard the shoots of Brownie
Hit the mitt of Johnny Kllng.
"I cheered for Circus Solly
As he cracked one on the nose;
I saw old Jimmy Sbeckard
Pick a wallop from bis toes.
And with the old time Sash of
speed.
Agility and science.
We mauled the rirates to a pulp
And stamped upon the Giants."
He elosed his eyes in retro
spect ' He slgbed with joy and then
. 1 kizdly shot him through the
heart

Collier's Weekly.
By wire the Comptroller of Currency
recognized the request of the . La
Grande National bank to raise its
capital stock from $100,000 to $200,
000 and today the bank officially an
nounces that it is working under a
capital stock of $200,000.
This, is an act for some time con
templated by the directors and stock
holders and the increased capital is
obtained by reducing the surplus of
the institution.
Cashier F. L. Meyers stated today
that it was the belief of all connected
with the bank that the increase of
capital stock was desirable, largely
for the reason that considerable of the
stock would now be taken by local
people.
During, the history of the La
Grande National bank the. capital has
been - increased at three different
times. The bank was organized in
1887 with a capital of $60,000. In
1904 the surplus was reduced and
capital stock raised to $100,000, and
now in 1914 again the surplus is re
duced and the capital stock raised to
$200,000.
Butte Speaks Very Highly of Troupe
Which Is Here Now.
"Butte likes a musical act, an act
with music in it. That's what the act
which the Four Melody- Kings are
giving at the Ansonia is," says a
Butte paper about the famous four
musicians now at the 'Arcade, and to
remain all week. The paper goes on
to say: There is music in every
line, and so well did the audience like
it yesterday afternoon and evening
that the four boys and they are fine
appearing young fellows were re
culled time and time again;; The
four will be here for four days, and
they will have a fine time, for when
Eutte gets to like people it likes
them, and that's all there's to it. The
Four Melody Kings have caught on.
They are real."
