 A statement given out at the head quarters of the American delegation today outlines the makeup of the American staff. It says:
 General Dawes and Mir, Young, the American members of the cor1- mittee of experts. have the benefit of a well-organi2ed staff with Rufus C. Dawes as chief Of staff and Stuart Crocker as secretary. Directly on the staff are Professor E. w. Kem- meror, of Princeton, an authority on currency, and Dr. J. s. Davis, of Le- land Stanford university, long eNpe- rienced in international economies.

Mrs. Mary Hawks, Aged 96, Believes
 Labor Is Keystone To All Happiness

Labor and don't worry" is thc secret of long and happy life, ac cording to Mrs. Mary Hawks. age( ss, of Southington, who is spending the winter with her granddaughter Mrs. William H. Allen at Maple Hill Mrs. Hawks doesn't say, Don't Worry she acts it. Pleasant smil- ing, the very essence of courtesy, she not only is growing old gracefully hut Is growing old pleasantly as well.
 Mrs. Hawks doesn't show the evi- dence of age that most people do after they pass 60 neither does she feel she has reached the point where she may retire. but she has slowed up q little. "I made up four beds this morning and did some ironing and helped a little in the other house work. not very much" she said but I'm not really doing any work now. I'm resting" she added. "Ycs. I feel ahle to do my own homework and sometimes I wish I had not sold my home, I would enjoy keeping my own house" Mrs. Hawks. on the second day of next June, will have reached aer 97ti1 milestone.
 She informed a representative of the Herald" who called upon her yesterday that the way to live long and be happy is to labor. She did not modify her statement by saving work or exercise. she used tho stronger term of labor, and meant just what she said. Asked if she didn't think the pace is too much at which the present age of young people is travelling. making each night one of pleasure and work ing all day. she said she had so little knowledge of what the young folks of today are doing that she could not comment, but added that so far as overwork was concerned, she didn't think there were many people doing that anyhow.
 Mrs, Hawks was born in Lynn. N H., June 2, 1897. She is the oldest living member of the Collinsyille Congregational church She was born pn farm and has seen hard work all her life. When she was quite young her parents moved to Mon tague. Mass, and when she was IS years Of age she was married and moved to Colinsvllle. She and her husband moved to Canton aO years later where they kept the hotel for 30 years. until her husband died
 Worked Hard All Her Life
 "All my life had to work hard % she says. And when my husband died I made up my mind I was going to sec some of the country" She fol lowed out her decision by doing con siderable travelling. Shc visited many states in the west and has visited tho birthplace of George Washington, at Mount Vernon. Va
 She visited the national capitol. climbed tho White Mountains and spent three days on Mount Washing

TWELVE MULES DIE
IN A BURNING BARN
BUILDING OWNED BY MRS.
JAMIE LEWIS. MUCH CORN
AND HAY DESTROYED.

Twelve mules persisted Saturday
night when the barn, located on the
farm OF Mrs. jamie Lewis in the
Understandable district was COM
pletely destroyed by fire. Every effort
was made to drive the stock from the
building but the frightened animals
seemed paralized with fear and made
no effort to leave the raging flames.
The fire was discovered by Mr.. 2. {.
Thrash. overseer for Mr.. Walter John
son, who leases the farm from Mrs.
Lewis. about 10 o'clock that night. He
Immediately gave the alarm and all
hands came to combat the flames, but
the wooden structure was soon envel-
oped and all efforts failed.
Besides the eight mules owned by
Mr.. Johnson and four owned by Mr..
Thrash the barn contained about 4OO
bushels of corn and 20 tons of hay
Many farm implements, including a
large peanut picker and a threshing
machine, were also burned.
The total loss is estimated at be-
tween 10000 and $1,000 with no in
surance, except a small amount on the
building, carried by Mrs. Lewis. The
fire evidently started in the lott, as
that part Of the building was almost
consumed when discovered by Mr.
Thrash. The cause of the FIRE is un
known. Mr. Thrash stated that no one
had been in the enclosure after dark
and it being Saturday very little OF the
stock had been worked after dinner
and had been fed and watered before
dark, thereby making the possibility
of a carelessly thrown match improb
able. No machinery had been running
in the barn in several weeks. WorE
OF reconstruction OF the barn VIII be
gin at an early date.

ments in this city.
The baseball uniforms OF the Daw-
son team of last year was donated to
the black players as a start-otf. Per
mission was given them by the city
authorities to do their stuff" so long
as they remained orderly.
The program began with thrilling
baseball game which ended with the
Dawson darkies coming out at the big
end of the score OF 8 to 3. 1t was a
wonderful exhibition OF big league
baseball with the local players in pro
fessional style Quite bit OF comedy
and near tragedy resulted before the
game was finished The local players
are known as the Black Giants, while
the opposing team went by the name
OF the Red Son The Black Giants are
under the management OF Henry An
derson
AT eight o'clock a prize fight was
staged at Thomas hall, the contend
ers being Foy Ware and profession
al from Albany, the latter being the
victor. The fight was witnessed by, a
large crowd OF whites and blacks.
The greatest event started at nine
O'Clock when a large street dance en-
sued The negroes were allowed to
rope off the entire block from Grimes
Mitchell Furniture Co. to the Hill &
Hill warehouse Music was furnished
by J. B. Johnson's jazz hounds. The
dusky bellies from miles around were
present to show their skill, while the
male attendants, arrayed in the latest
style. each did his best to win the ad-
miration OF the brunettes. Many new
steps were introduced on this occa-
sion. The dance broke up in the wee
sma' hours OF the morning.
