MUSTN'T SHAKE PLUM TREE.
Opinion of Ex-Secretary Knox
Holds That Recess Appoint
ments Cannot be Made Now.

BY Associated Press to Every Evening.
Washington. Aug. 27.-Oficial opin-
ion was divided today on the question
of President Harding's authority to
make recess appointments TO federal
posts during the present adjournment
of Congress.
The President was said 10 take the
position that since Congress stood ad-
journed he had. under the law, the
right TO make the necessary recess
appointments for carrying on the
work of the government subject to
the approval of the Senate. where
necessary, when that body reas-
sembles.
A memorandum prepared for At
torney General Daugherty after close
study of the subject by the Depart
ment OF Justice officials, however.
cites an opinion by former Attorney
General Knox which held that where
the Congress adjourned sine die the
President was entitled TO name recess
appointees, but where the date OF re-
assembly was fixed. as in the present
case, the President could not make
appointments necessary Of confirma-
tion during the recess.

case Of typhoid fever was reported to

cred most remarkable especially for

prevalent than at any other season
Of the year. but Wilmington is de-
clared to be especially fortunate this
summer as regards the situation per-
tanning 70 all contagious diseases.
The purity Of the city's water supply
and the care given TO the handling
of milk are believed TO be largely re-
sponsible for the freedom from all
typhoid fever.
z During the week two cases of hph-
liberia and two cases OF scarlet fever
were reported. With these exceptions
the city is free from any form of con-
tagious disease. The one or two cases
Of typhoid fever existing were report
ed several weeks ago and at least
one is known TO have been contracted
elsewhere.
During the week there were "a
deaths as compared with 27 for the
same period last year. There were 4s
births reported while 40 were report
ed for the same week last summer
The marriages this week totaled IA

Offer Reward for Evidence and
Appeal to Local Police

ALARMED FOR CHILDREN

Citizens of Hillcrest appealed to Su-
perintendent OF Police Black today, in
their efforts to discover who is poison
ing the watch dogs and pet CANNES
of their community. At meeting of
the Hillcrest Improvement Association.
held at the home of the president.
James II. Wright. last night. resolu-
tions were adopted, one of which was
directed to Superintendent Black, ask
ing that he endeavor to ascertain from
the druggists of the city. TO whom
they have sold arsenic and for what
purpose within the last two months.
The residents of Hillcrest have no
police protection. and depend entirely
on the watchdogs TO safeguard them
selves and property at night. 1t is be-
iieved by many that the killing of the
dogs. which according TO owners. have
suffered terribly before dying, may
have been due to the activities Of pet
" thieves. who knew that in any at
tempts TO burglarize homes their ef-
forts would be detected by these faith
ful animals. and their presence made
known by the dogs barking.
By authority of another resolution
adopted. Hillcrest is being placarded
today. notices being posted on al
streets and at the trolley station Of
fering a reward of s25 for evidence
that would lead 10 the arrest of the
person or persons guilty of poisoning
the dogs. This resolution is signed
by President Wright Of the Hillcrest
Association.
Another feature that epters into
the seriousness of the situation is that
parents fear that their children might
in some way find poisoned meat. which
II is said the dogs have been eating
and that some OF the poison might
innocently be taken into their sys-
tenn. Reports from owners of dogs
which have been killed by the poison
are that the animals have suffered
agony for many hours before death re-
lieved them.

Mr.. Zebley is unusually active,
and his faculties are unimpaired.
When seen this morning. he was sit
ting on the front steps of his home.

early history of Wilmington.
He was born in this city and has
lived here all his life. For many years,
he said, he resided at Seventh and
Walnut streets, when Walnut street
was the city boundary line on the east
and there were no buildings east of
that street between the Brandywine
and Christiana. He stated he often
watched from his front porch the
trains going into French street station.
He has never tasted liquor, but has
smoked and chewed for rs years and
when seen today was enjoying a
healthy chew He has not tasted tea,
coffee or chocolate for 72 years.
Mr.. Zebley as a young man worked
at the powder mills on Garasche's

lets. He stated when an explosion oc-
CURED he and other employees ran
back to this city and often swan
across the Christiana, for that was be-

the foremen at the old powder plant,
Mr.. ZebIey said had tame deer.
which used TO swim the Christ;ana
and come up town for "a run with
the dogs"
Mr.. Zebley is looking forward with
much interest TO the annual reunion
of the Zebley family, which viii be
held on Labor Day at Zebley's Cor
ner, on the Concord pike. Represen-
tatives from many States will bring
the number in attendance TO nearly
500.
For some years Mr.. Zebley was in
the rolling mill business. He after
wards worked for the Pennsylvania
railroad and retired when he reach
ed the age of 20 years.
Mr.. Zebley has some interesting
old papers. Among them is piece
of paper money which was used in
Delaware as legal tender in 1777, ac-
cording to an act of the General AS
sembly. 1t is a half crown. and across
the back are the wodrs ITO coun-
felt is DEATH" indicating that coun-
terfeiting in those days was punish
able by the death penalty.
The aged man stated he does not
like to go out at nights now. He for
merly went out at nights in a horse
drawn vehicle. he said, but with the
great number of automobiles ''the
poor old horse hasn't much chance
now"
