FROM NEARBY TOWNS
CHRONICLE OF HAPPENINGS AMONGST
OUR NEIGHBORS.
MELROSE..

While George A. Houek was load
ing some coal oil barrels at Green
mount, he accidentally hurt his right
hand and had to quit work for a
week or more.
Some of our people are wondering
why we cannot have State road the
same as is being built between Man
chester and Greenmount. Do not our
people pay taxes? Are we not as much
in need of a good road as they?
Universal sympathy has gone out
all over the county for Mr.. George
Knipple, who met with serious ac-
cident on Monday last. While haul
ing load of implements from his
home in Baehman's Valley to the
farm he Is to occupy near Littles-
town after April list, the horses be-
came unmanageable. In trying to
stop them Mr.. Knipple was thrown
under the heavy road wagon. His
right leg was broken in several
places and he bled profusely, DR..
Zeigler was Immediately summoned.
Later Drs. Fftzhugh and Stewart, OF
Westminster, were summoned in con-
sultation. They decided that ampu-
tation OF the injured limb was best
and on Tuesday morning DR.. Zelgler,
assisted by the Westminster doctors
performed the operation. Mr.. knipple,
though very weak at this time is do
ing as well as can be expected.
On Saturday evening between IL
and Il o'clock we were awakened by
the calithumpian band near the
square. Later we learned 1t was In
honor OF a newly welded couple at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Croft II was Mr.. William Feeser
and his bride, who was Miss Cecil
Croft. We wish them much hap
piness and prosperity.

TRY TO EXTEND
CIVIL SERVICE
REPUBLICANS WANT INCOME TAX
OFFICERS UNDER 1T.
THEIR PLAN IS Defeated
Hoke Smith Says Good Men for Jobs
Necessary, and They Should Be
Selected With a View to Their
Fitness for the Work.

Washington.-Republicsn attack on
about the provision that would permit
civil service laws to be disregarded in
employing inspectors, deputy collectors
and agents to administer the new income
tax laws. The Democratic majority was
charged freely with trying to break
down the civil service laws and open
up new jobs to political favoritism."
Republican senators of all factions
united in their efforts to have civil
service extended over the new employees,
but on the closest vote of the day they
were defeated, 81 to 80, on an amend
ment offered by Senator Lodge. Sena-
tor Hoke Smith, who defended the bill
for the Democrats, declared it was i'm
possible under the present civil service
examinations to get men qualified to
administer the income tax laws. "a
bright boy out Of high school could pass
the examination" he said, "but men of
40 or As, equipped from business expert
ence to do such work, probably would
fail"
DO you think the recommendation vi
q congressman would be better than a
civil service examination 7" demanded
Senator Root.
Il think the judgment of a congress
man would be better in the selection OF
a competent man than this examination
they have been conducting" replied Sen
ator Smith. "None of the men who have
passed these examinations are as fit as
the men recommended by deputy collec
tors of revenue"
As it was left by the senate, the bill
authorizes the collector of internal reve
u and the secretary of the treasury
to employ men outside the civil service
for the first two years after the incom,
tax goes into effect.

IMPROVEMENT IN
MEXICAN SITUATION
HUERTA WITHDRAwS REQUEST
FOR EXCHANGE AMBASSADORS.
MEXICAN ELECTIONS IN OCT.
John Lind Authorized to Return to
Mexico City if in His Discretion,
Such . Step Was Deemed
Advisable.

Washington.-Thh was the Mexican
situation in brief Thursday
Huerta has withdrawn his request for
an exchange OF ambassadors and asked
that the present diplomatic status con
tinue until after Mexican elections in
October. BY some that was interpreted
as a concession.
A request for recognition as the "con-
stitutionsl government ad Interim
which was coupled with the proposal for
an exchange of ambassadors was, how
ever, interpreted by many officials as a
practicl reiteration of the original stand
of the Huerta government.
Senior Gamboa, Mexican foreign min
ister, pointed out that the American de
mand for the elimination of Huerts
would be met by a provision of the Mex
lean constitution which makes a pro-
v%isional president ineligible to re-elec-
ton. The Washington government, how
ever, desires assurances more definite.
John Lind was authorized to return
to Mexico City from Vera Cruz, 'if, in
his discretion, it seemed advisable 1t
is believed here he will go and that ne
gotiations principally over Huerta's re-
tirement may be reopened.
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan
regarded the situation as Encouraging
and indicated they expected some change
in the attitude at Mexico City.
American consular officers through
outu Mexico were rounding up Ameri.
cans, advising them to leave Mexico.
Major-General Wood was to take per.
sonal charge of any military measures tc
execute strict neutrality.

D|Az CANDIDATE;
CAUSES TROUBLE
q. S. CANNOT RECOGNIZE HIM MORE
THAN HUERTA.
OFFICIALS ARE NOW WORRIED
Reports from Mexico City Are That Pro-
~visional Authorize Do Not Regard
Negotiations as at an End.
No Anti-American Outbreak.

Wash;ngton.-There is an Ominous
sound in the announcement of Felix
Diaz for the Mexican presidency. To
some ears here it has a disturbing ring.
There are those who are inclined to con-
strue the declaration of Diaz that he
will be a candidate for president as a
new defiance to this government, one
that may change the whole aspect Of
the Mexican situation. One significant
argument made is that If this govern
ment will not stand for the candidacy
OF Huerta how can it view the candi-
dacy of Felix Diaz in any light other
than suspicion and distrusti Diaz for
Huerta would be like swapping the devil
for a witch. Both are catalogued in
the same blackness.
What is the United States going to do
about it. is being asked. One answer is
wait until the administrations present
program for the restoration Of peace and
order in Mexico runs its course. It is
suggested that the candidacy Of Dias
will greatly embarrass and complicatc
our relations With Mexico. An honest
c~,ertiom of /, az, it Is claimed by some,
is impossible. To prevent a dishonest
one would neccssitate a reversal of the
administrators policy Of non-interfer'
enee.' This brings the United States
face to face with a new problem in its
commendable efforts to saw Mexico from
itself.
At any rate, some officials here are
varied at the forbidding aspect given
the situation by the announcement OF
the Diaz candidacy.
Mexico will have to settle to the last
cent for the damage to property owned
by Americans since the reign of rebel.
lion began three years ago. During the
present lull in the negotiations between
the United States and the Huerta gov.
eminent the state department is turning
its attention to the immense indebted
ness Huerta is accumulating for his sue
cesson to settle.

FEW BIG GAME HUNTERS NOW
W. Kenyon Arranging Expedition to
Central Africa.

London.-W. Kenyon, the famous
painter and hunter, who has just ar
rived in London after a Norwegian trip
for the purpose of arranging details for
= winter expedition to Central Africa,
said: Il have just received news that
my f~avorite huntsman sustained terri
BILE injuries, and the same letter tells
me that some of the other famous hunt
ers have given up the big game. Even
Cunningham, Roosevelt's hunter, said no
had sufficient risking Of his life daily
to last him, and hereafter he preferred
to hunt small game, something of the
nature of spiders. 1t looks to me as if
the race of white hunters would die out
unless a new generation arises ready to
take similar risks. | fear it will be a
black future for would-be game hunters
in Africa"
