Durham's Oldest Woman
Celebrates Birthday.
Makes Address Of 20 Minutes
Before Many Friends.
Mind Clear and Faculties Seem
Little Affected. Twice Married.

Durham, Me, March 10.-"Aunt'
Mary Goddard of this place. probably
the oldest woman in Maine, signalized
her 101st birthday today by address,
ing a meeting held in honor of the
event at the Friends Meeting House,
of which society she is a devoted mem
Der.
Mrs. Goddard spoke for fully 20 min
utes and her voice carried distinctly to
every part of the little edifice. She be-
gan by saying that the meeting was
not held to hear funeral orations but
to worship God. She quoted extracts
from the Bible and bits of verse readily
and accurately. The meeting was at
tended by friends from many parts of
the State.
Mrs. Goddard was born in Durham,
March 10, 1911 and her maiden name
was Douglass. She was twice mar
ried. her second husband. Robert God
dard. having died in 1881. Mrs. God
dard's mind is clear and except that
she is rather deaf seems to be in full
possession of her faculties.

Churchill In Asquith's Place un-
III Discussion Wears Out.

London March 10.-After II continuous
sitting of 10 hours, the House of Com
mons rose at 10 o'clock this morning.
Stormy scenes marked the session right
up to the close.
The whole night was occupied with the
discussion of the land clauses of the bud
get and the debate was the most bitter
that has been heard in the lower cham
Der in 10 years.
Taunts and insults were hurled fast and
furiously. anger flared up dangerously
and at one time a riot was threatened
when in the midst of an excited demon
stration on the part of the Nationalists
Capt James Craig, Unonist member for
the East division of Down, sprang to his
feet and, addressing the chairman, re-
marked that if the presiding officer would
give the word. the opposition would glad
Iy throw the whole Nationalist party out
of the house.
This remark drew hurricane of angry
shouts from the Irish benches and it was
some time before the chairman was able
to restore order.
Home Secretary Churchill stood in the
breach for the government in the absence
of Premier Asquith, who had been called
to Switzerland by the illness of his
daughter Elizabeth, and Chancellor
Lloyd George. whose bad throat makes
it impossible for him to take part in an
ordinary debate and who could not have
been heard in last nights turmoil had he
been present.
The home secretary and the leaders of
the opposition exchanged caustic remarks
that were frequently personal, and sew
eral times he was called to order by the
Chair Frequently the government leader
resorted to closure, but the discussion
was continued until the participants were
fairly worn ont

= The Haitian Situation.
i The daily papers are keeping the
country advised as to the situation in
Haiti, and the tension is high in Ne
gro circles, because the Republic over
which another revolution hangs is
Eof our own color, and because the
diplomats, upon whose GOODNESS,
Eccurage and diplomatic skill this ma
Efion must depend for the proper So
elution of one Of the greatest prob
lens of the Western Hemisphere, are
likewise Negroes. Minister H. w.
Furniss at Port Au Prince, is show
ing himself to be master of state
craft, and his course in protecting
American interests and forbidding
ktthe sacrifice of the unfortified towns
of the island; commends him to the
respect and confidence and admira-
ton of the civilized world. Consul
l.. w. Livingston is to be commended
in like degree for his promptness in
bringing to bear the naval power of
the United States, and for knowing
just what to do in so trying an emer-
gency as that which confronted him
at Cape Haitian at the outbreak of
|shOstilities. The outcome is still
lashrouded in doubt. Colorcd Ameri-
lcans want to see order restored.
1t does not require the ken Of a
prophet or a seer to predict that con
Iistant revolution, with it's attendant
murders, destruction Of property and
international Implications, will
Eventually lead to outside interven-
Ition, which may mean the dismem-
ltberment the Republic and set
back to an independence that may
lnevcr be regained. If the Simons
! Firmins and other ambitious souls
wish to preserve to their race the
land made famous by the military
genius Of Touissant L'Ouverture and
lDessalines, they will see to it that
fpeace is restored at the earliest posi-.
BILE moment. .

Minister at Washington, is confident
that President Simon viii be able tC
