Philadelphia Evidently desiring to
give mis- hearers the impression that
he is a man doing his duty now as he
sees ii and is willing to let the future
take care OF itself, President Wilson
enunciated new epigram:

Wilson came to Philadelphia to attend
the re-dedication of Congress Hall,
recently restored to its original form,
THE fundamental business of self
government" he said in one speech,
"is not only to establish, but to alter,
so our business today is as great as
that of those gentlemen who sat in
Congress Hall a hundred years ago.
They taught US not what to do, but
how to do it,"
Congress Hall, where many historic
events in the early days OF the re-
public transpired, was re-dedicated in
the presence of President Wilson and

continued intermittently in the after

The old structure has been restored
to almost its original appearance, after
years of patient efforts on the part
of architects, who searched all exist

as it did when Washington delivered
his farewell address within its walls.
President Wilson, who was accom-
panied from Washington by Secre-
taries Wilson and Houston, Speaker
Champ Clark Ambassador Jusserand,
of France, and a delegation of men,
bers OF the Senate and House, was
given an enthusiastic reception by
the people OF Philadelphia. The rail

Mosby Failed to Capture Train
Because of Them.
While Waiting for Federal Suffers
Wagons Confederate Rangers Met
With Warm Reception-Luck
With Men In Blue.

Boston.-Col. John S. Mosby, com.
mander of the Partisan Rangers, who
gave such dashing service in the south
ern cause fifty years ago, is living
now in the city of Washington, the
Youths Companion states. One Of the
really amusing incidents that passed
under his notice during the war he
told not long ago.
In the summer of 1864 when Gen.
Phil Sheridan was in the valley of
the Shenandoah, he found himself
much harassed by MosOy, who was
continually cutting off his supply
trains. An army cannot fight on an
empty stomach, and Mosby knew It.
One bright morning Mosby heard
that long supply train was winding
its way down the valley BY noon the
rangers, in their gray uniforms, were
gathered at the forks of the valley
pike, watching for the head of the
wagon train to appear.
Presently a cloud of dust was seen
rising far up the road, and as the
wind blew it aside, the Confederates
caught sight of line of men in blue
escorting a caravan of numbering
wagons drawn by mules. Instantly
Mosby gave the order to run little
howitzer up on the side of the hill and

GREAT BRITAIN MAKES DENIAL
In Sending a Warshp To Mexico
It Does Not Intend To En-
barrass the United
States.

Washington. - The United States
Government is preparing to notify the
nations of the world generally that
any interference in Mexican affairs
will be regarded as unfriendly TO this
Government.
President Wilson, Secretary Bryan
and Counselor John Bassett Moore, OF
the State Department, has exchanged
ideas on what the proclamation to the
world should express. 1t will be com
municated to foreign governments
everywhere, in line with the policy
established earlier OF keeping other
nations informed of every step taken
in its handling of the Mexican prob
lem
The proclamation, or note, also will
serve, it is understood, as an explicit
definition of the policy of the United
States toward the de facto authorities
in Mexico, reiterating the principle
that recognition can only be given to
governments on this hemisphere
founded on law and order.
Two things. it is known, have con-
tributed to the determination of the
government to define its pclicy-the
presentation by Sir Lionel Garden, the
British Minister to Mexico, of his ere
dentials Immediately after Huerta had
proclaimed himself dictator and the
dispatch of several war vessels to
Mexican waters.
The British Embassy here at the
direction OF the Foreign Office officially
advised Secretary Bryan that the Brit
ish Government pronounced as unau-
thentic the now famous interview
credited to Sir Lionel expressing the
view that the United States did not
understand conditions in Mexico.
The British Foreign Office based its
denial of Sir Lionels interview on "a
denial from Sir Lionel himself The
published interview represented the
Minister as unsympathetic with the
policy OF the United States.
Another incident that was regarded
with significance was the assurance
that came from Ambassador Jusserand
" INC oIaIC bVPol tiiehI tlliI tIlo
French Government in sending war
ship to Mexican waters did not intend
in any way to embarrass the United
States. Officials indicated satisfac-
ton over the apparent trend of the
French Governments attitude.
There is a possibility that if the
powers indicate further an unwilling
ness to embarrass the United States
that this government may withhold its
pronouncement, but some officials were
of the opinion that sooner or later
such declaration, which they regard
ed as tantamount to a reafirmation of
the principles of the Monroe Doctrine,
would be required.

EGGLESTON STORY IS DENIED
No Such Man on the Merrimac, Say,
Capt. Bob Wright, Who Was
Our Engineer.

Richmond, Va.-"There was no such

Captain Wright says that the last
survivors of the Merrimac are so
plentiful that he believes if all who
claim to have served on that vessel
had done so there would have been
men enough to have manned at least
ten vessels of the same size.

The season is at hand in which it
has been our long-respected custom as

fold mercies and blessings to us as a
nation. The year that has just passed
has been marked in a peculiar degree
my manifestations of His gracious and
benefcent providence
We have not only had peace
throughout our own borders and with
the nations of the world, but that
peace has been brightned by constant
ly multiplying evidence of genuine
friendship of mutual sympathy and
understanding and of the happy opera
tion of many elevating influences, both
OF ideal ana of practice.
The nation has been not only pros
porous, but has proved its capacity TO
take calm counsel amid the rapid
movement of affairs and deal with its
own life in a spirit of candor, righte-
BUSINESS and comfy. We have seen
the practical completion of a great
work at the Isthmus of Panama which
not only eXemplifes the nations
abundant resources TO accomplish
what it will and the distinguished skill
and capacity of its public servants, but
also promises the beginning Of new
age. of new contrasts, new neighbor-
hoods, new sympathies, new bonds and
new achievements of cooperation and
peace.
righteousness exalteth the nation
and peace on earth, good will toward
men" furnish the only foundations
upon which can be built the lasting
achievements of the human spirit.
The year has brought US the satisfac-
tions of work well done and fresh
visions of our duty which will make
the world of the future better still.
Now, therefore, l, Woodrow Wilson,
President of the United States of
America, do hereby designate Thurs
day OF thanksgiving and prayer and
invite the people throughout the land
to cease from their wanted occupations
and in their several homes and places
OF worship render thanks tc Almighty
God.
In witness whereof ! have here unto
set my hand and caused the seal OF
the United States to be affixed.
Done at the city of Washington this
23d day Of October, in the year of our
Lord, 1913, and of the independence of
