S. Roe was also given a hearty recep-
ton when he reported the conditions
as he found them in his tour through

CLARK HEIRS ARE
IN DIFFICULTIES

The financial difficulties of James w.
Clark and Cynthia w. Clark, son and
widow of the late William C. Clark,
eliminated yesterday afternoon when
their counsel, Burton w. Potter, filed
for them in the United States Court at
Boston a petition in bankruptcy James
w Clark's schedule of liabilities shows
he owes $46, III .03 and his asstes are re-
ported as So, 595. Cynthia w. Clark s
liabilities are also given as $46,771. O3,
she being equally responsible with
James w. Clark for the Indebtedness,
and her assets are given as $21, 645.
The secured claims against them
amount to $40,750, including a mort
gage of $4,000 held by the Worcester
County Institution for Savings, $4,000
owed to John f. Day, $4,000 to the Wor-
cester Mutual Fire Insurance Company
and $3.50 owed to Henry e. Hill. The
unsecured claims amount to s5721 and
are due mostly to tradesmen of Wor-
ceSter for household and other expenses
When William c. Clark died about
six years ago he left his estate to be
divided equally between his widow and
James w. Clark and his daughter Ida.
The mortgages given by James w.
Clark and Cynthia w. Clark are signed
only by them and no account is taken
of the share of the daughter in the es-
tate. Her heirs claim the third part
of the estate left by her father and it
is this claim which has precipitated
the difficulty.

office of county commissioner who will
probably be renominated and re-elect-
ed 1t is6not often we gather in this
historic hall without the smoke of bat
tie and clash of arms in carrying
through an election"
The speaker believed that county
commissioner acts to a certain extent
in the capacity of a judge and the
office should combine judicial admin
istrative and executive ability. Inc
commission sits as judges, admins
trates the business and executes the
projects of the county.
Continuing, Mr.. Dodge said: The
one whose name 1 present has served
nine years as a commissioner during
which his conduct has been above re-
proach and he has exhibited adequate
capacity to deal with large questions
that come before the board. When L
say that he has fulfilled his duties IN
maintaining the standard of ONCE ana
being a worthy rep1 esentative OF the
county of Worcester 1 believe that
have paid him high tribute as COM

FRILLs OF FASHION.

Entre deux of black and white lace are used together with very good ef feet. especially in wnits materials. Lace set in Van Dyke ooirsAis a favorite trimming-in fact. lace E simply loaded on the gowns; no other word can eX press its lavish use.
 Painted flowers ale used on every thing. silks and velvets being made now. covered with these hand painte,l blossoms. which give Us touch of summer amid the bleakness of winter weather. A sky blue de soie painted in large punches Of white roses Is charming for an evening gown.
 Straps and stitched folds continue as the favored trimmings Tor cloth gowEz. The straps are often fastened down with buttons. which should harmoniZe with the gown. LaCings of black vel vet CT satin are almost a necessity on a fashiona ble gown. They are used on almost ev=rytning except tailor made. Skirts and corsage alike are slashed and then laced up with velvet ribbons. Or the front of belero or corsage i- laced across the chernisette.
