DENTIST SAYS HE
HAS OLDEST CLOCK

That Charles Hoffman, of Milton,
has the oldest clock in Wayne county,
as stated in the Saturday issue of the
Palladium, is disputed by Dr. Carver
Mendenhall, the dentist of this city.
Dr. Mendenhall states that he has a
clock that is known to be one hundred
and fortytwo years old and that many
antiquarians have pronounced at least
two hundred and fifty. DR.. Menden-
hall knows it to be the former. howev-
er, as he purchased 1t from Elisha
Hirst, the we'll known jeweler of this
city who died a few years ago, basing
this on the following signed statement
by Mr.. Hirst:
This wall sweep is one hundred and
thirty-five years old. 1t was owned
by family by the name of Brown.
The parents died, the estate had to be
settled, and as each one of the chill
dren wanted the clock, they finally
agreed to sell ii and so Elisha Hirst
bought it of them. One of the heirs
was so angry, because she or he did
not get the clock, that they took a
piece of it and threw 1t away, think
ing, by so doing, il would ruin the
clock for anyone else. But this did
not affect the clock in the leas.. One
of the heirs also threw away The key.
but Mr. Hirst made another just as
good and that is the one | now have.

LOCAL men ARE IN
FIGHT OVER BILL
Commercial Club Represent
atives Favor Proposed
Shade Tree Law.

Five Richmond men went TO Indian
apolis today to lobby at the hearing
OF the shade tree bill, which is faith
cred by the local Commercial club and
which provides for the regulation OF
the planting and protection of shade
trees in cities and towns by commits
sion of three men to be appointed for
five year terms and to serve without
pay for the interest of the city. At
torney Perry Freeman OF the Rich
mond Home Telephone company will
lobby against the bill at the hearing
by the committee on Cities and Towns
tonight and a delegation of four men
from the Commercial club will lobby
for the bill The Commercial club
committee is composed of George Sci
del. n. c. Heironimus. John l.. Rupe
and T. Abbott Mott.
At the time the bill was introduced
two years ago at the state legislature,
it was too late to act on ii. The bill
recently passed the senate without a
dissenting vote and Charles Jordon
secretary of the Commercial club
stated today that there is not much
doubt but that the bill viii become an
act at the present session of the legis
lature.
The bill was introduced to provide
for the planting of trees where there
are no trees at present and to give
power to a commission to decide all
matters regarding the cutting, trim
ming or mutilation of shade trees by
telephone and telegraph companies
who desire to cut trees to make space
for wires.
The bill calls for a commission Of
three men appointed by the mayor Of
the city. The act will not make the
commission compulsory, but optional
with the city or towns.
Any violations of rules or decisions
made by the proposed commission
would subject the violator to a fine o.
not less than 81 nor more than 500
The commission would have the power
to order removed any obstruction
deemed by them to be detrimental u
the growth and spread of the tree OF
plant.

MEMCANS WAIT ON
POLICY OF WILSON
Some Degree of Anxiety Is
Felt By the New Huerta
Provisional Govt.
CNational News Association,

MEXICO CITY, March 3-The pro-
visional government of Mexico 10
awaiting with some anxiety the incom-
ing OF the Wilson administration at
Washington tomorrow, not knowing
what policy the United States may
then adopt toward the Mexican situa-
ton.
Provisional President victoriana
Huerts and Foreign Minister Fran
cisco De La Barra believe Mr.. Wilson
will continue the hands on" policy OF
Taft. but they fear that complications
might be brought about through the
appointment of new American am
bassador not fully understanding the
Mexican people as does the present
| ambassador. Henry Lane Wilson.
Members of the American colony
recognizes the quality of the work
done by Mr.. Wilson to bring the hos
tile Mexican factions together and
maintain a friendly feeling. The Mex
leans and foreigners are thinking Of
sending a committee to Washington
TO urge the retention OF Mr. Wilson
IL this is carried out the committee
may leave for Washington next week
Felix Rabiasa, the new Mexican am
bassador to the United States is also
expected to speak IN favor OF the re-
tention of MI. Wilson. Mexican states
men argue that in crisis such as the
Mexican government is passing
through laws and traditions higher
and broader than those OF politics
should be observed. Mr.. Wilson is In
the inner councils of the government
and almost daily gives advice upon
matters under consideration. General
Mondragon. minister of war. has is
sued brief statement explaining the
shooting down of 100 soldiers at
Colonia de Santa Julia, a suburb. Sun
day. According to General Mondragon
the soldiers, who were formerly on
Francisco l. Madero's force. mutinied
and tried to rush the barracks They
were legally executed as mutineers
and enemies of the established govern
ment," said General Mondragon
There was no violation of laws of
civilized warfare"
Despite the strength of President
Huerta, the air of the national palace
is heavy with intrigue. Political lead
ers are holding secret meetings and
plans and counter plans are discussed
for the overthrow of the present heads
of the government. There are rumors
that something of most sensational
nature" is going to happen shortly.
Some alarmists even go so far as to
claim that President Huerta and Felix
Diaz who has the advantages of
possessing a name which rules like
magic in this revolution ridden repub-
lie. and of being related to PorRrio
Diaz.
The business situation in this city
however. is improving rapidly in spite
| of alarmist rumors.
