WANT LARGEST
CLOCK IN j. S.
Timepiece Invented By Louisville
Man Is Offered For Sale
At $500.

Louisville, KY, Feb. 1S.-Jefferson
county can have the distinction-if
it wants it-of owning the largest
clock in the United States, and per-
haps in the world. The distinction
and the clock will cost $500. II. G..
Korfhage built the clock and had it
ON exhibition at the Armory during
Home Coming Week. The clock cost
him $1,000 to build and as it has
practically been a loss of time and
money he has decided to sell it now
that he has the opportunity.
The Kansas City Auditorium and
the San Francisco Exposition have
offered to purchase the clock.
Secretary w. L. Morrow, of the
Commercial Club and Denny b.
Goode, Assistant Secretary Of the
Louisville Convention and Publicity
League. heard of the offers and sug-
gested that the clock be kept in Lou
isville, inasmuch as 1t was the in
vention of Louisville man.
When the Fiscal Court meets to-
day MIR. Goode and Mr.. Morrow will
ask the members to vote an appro-
priation for the purchase of the clock
and to place 1t at the North end of
the Armory, where it can be seen
by persons entering the building. 1t
is planned to remove the Airline de-
sign that now decorates it, and insert
therein a new one.
The clock is built in the form OF
a pendulum, and weighs 5000 pounds.
Its face contains $500 electric light
globes of all colors and shows the
time of day without the use of hands.
If it were swung from the fifth floor
of the Lincoln Building it would just
clear the street. 1t has 1900 cleo
trio connections.
If the Fiscal Court purchases the
clock Mr.. Korfhage will guarantee to
keep tim running condition for five
years.
