Perpetuate Charter
Oak in Penn.
By AcOrns

Mcelhattan, Pa Oct. 81 - lA1 -
Six descendants of the famous char
ter oak of Hartford, Conn, were TO
be planted by Colonel Henry w.
Shoemaker at his home here today
in observance of fall Arbor Day.
Colonel Shoemaker is member OF
the state forest commission.
The Charter Oak took its name
after it was used to conceal the
charter of the Colonial Assembly in
Hartford in 1857. That year Govern
or Andres appeared before the as
sembly and demanded the document.
History relates that the lights in the
assembly hall were suddenly eXtin-
guished and when relighted the
charter had disappeared. 1t had
been hidden in a hollow oak tree by
Captain Wadsworth.
Governor Andres was recalled
shortly after the disappearance of
the charter, and the English courts
decided that it was still in effect
since the assembly had failed to re-
linquish 1t. The charter was then
brought from its hiding place, and
the old oak tree became famous
landmark.
Although the Charter Oak was
blown down during severe storm In
1856, it has been perpetuated through
it's acorns, and thus Colonel Shoe
maker has been able to arrange to
set out offsprings of the famous tree
at his home here today.

old Time MINISTRIES
Please AUDIENCE At
CITY HALL SHOWING

'ohn X. Van Arnam's Minstre1s
| appearing Tuesday evening IN this
ivy ior the first time, presented to
'neir augusta patrons at City Hall a
eioice entertainment that was really
inucn appreciated. The show was
divided into two parts, the first being
minstrel show of the old order
whlie the second consisted of several
Ane speciality numbers grouped into
long but interesting oIo.
The first portion of the nrogra ~,
was replete with new jokes. snappy
/ patter, tuneful songs and, inter
spefsed Herewith. some classy step
ping The feature of this minstrel
snow was double male quartet
made UP of eight particularly fine
singers. This quartet, backed I'D by
nne five piece orchestra sang a
variety OF numbers during the pro-
sress OF the program and several
members responded with solos. The
/ END men who were white, carried
out their coon parts in first class
style and put over their stuff with
spirit of humor that was easily
communicated to the audience ana
kept them in an uproar.
IN the second part of the show
members who had appeared in the
mlnstrels showed that they could
Gouble In something besides brass.
one of the members of the quartet
appeared as a juggler and jugged
tennis rackets and balls, large vari-
colored indian clubs and even straw
mats. His act was very clever and
drew much applause.
A frog next appeared and after a
little preliminary or "warming-u
exercises he shed his head and feet
and appeared as a human being, but
very much sans" joints That boy
could tie himself into all sorts of
knots and do things that would put
the ordinary mortal in the garage for
repairs, and he got a big hand.
a male quartet kept the audience
laughing for many minutes with their
humorous songs and antics and they
were succeeded by two men who
staged very clever dancing act. Here
surprise was sprung when one OF
them introduced his sister who gave
her Interpretation Of a waltz clog.
/ The very attractive Miss made a hit
with this number.
They We're followed by another
young lady who sang a very fine
group of songs only to lapse into a
fine baritone during the last one, and
removing a beautiful auburn wig,
proved to be rather able looking
young man.
The show was brought to an end
by a clever sllit by one of the end
men in blackface. and a member of
the quartet, who pulled some clever
gags before the entrance of the entire
company for the finale.
1t was understood that several
people from Lewiston who had seen
the show before came to this city
by auto bus last evening to witness
the performance.
The members of the company with
their fine ten piece band. at noon
Tuesday staged a parade through the
business section of the city giving
a band concert before the Sexton
Drug store which was heard by a
large crowd. They came to this city
in their private railroad car and the
parade was started from there. In
the evening they gave a short concert
in front of City Hall before the start
/ Of the evening performance.

The line Of division on this Ques-

"The question between the parties

Harvester Concern
Must Again Face
Charge Of Monopoly

Washington, Oct. 26--P1--After
an absence Of IL years the Inter-
national Harvester Company today
again was before the supreme court
to answer charge by the govern
ment that 1t was monopolizing the
harvester business.
Cyrus Mccormick, chairman of
the board of directors of the COM
pany. and others of It's officers at
tended. the hearing.
William J. Donovan, of the de-
partment of justice, on behalf of the
government insisted the company
had not carried out in good faith
it's agreement of 1924 to restore COM
petitive conditions in the harvester
trade. He reviewed the long litiga-
ton including several arguments in
the supreme court leading up to the
agreement, the Intervention of war,
and asserted that after the restora-
ton of normal conditions the COM
pany had refused to end its mono
lopy under the agreement and was
still restraining trade in harvesting
machinery. He contended the COM
pany now controlled between 81 and
66 per cent of this business.
These figures were denounced as
misleading by William S. Elliott,
counsel of the company, who held
the company's output in harvesting
machinery constituted only 20 per-
cent of the volume of it's entire busi-
ness and that there was active COM
petition in all other lines. He in
sisted the government conceded such
competition and declared that the
company could not restrain trade in
harvesters, II 1t wanted to, because
n WAS denendenf uDOn the good will
of it's customers in marketing at
least ten per cent of its output, even
If the governments claims were con-
coded.
The government told the court it
was not high prices in harvesting
machinery that caused the COM
plant, but apprehension that the
power of the company over the price
of harvesters was controlling the
activities of all its competitors in
all lines of business.

Its First Phase in
Prosecution of MOrses

New York. Oct. 2s.--(P)-With the
Morse mail fraud trial in it's third
week, the government today had COM
pleted laying the foundation of its

curious. He notified the bureau of
combustibles. Three members of
the bureau sliced the side of the
suitcase and removed a clock mech
anism, tin of fulfinite of mercury
which explodes by percussion
and a wooden box filled with gran
ulated dynamite.
The dynamite, estimated at from
10 to % pounds, was sufficient to
damage not only the county court
house but also city hall and other
downtown buildings, investigators
said. There are usually many people
In the vicinity of the courthouse and
city hall.
One of the theories of investiga-
tors as to the presence of the "in-
fernal machine" on the window
ledge was that some one who intend
ed to place it elsewhere had become
frightened by an approaching police
man, put the suitcase on the window
ledge and fed. The window on
which the suitcase was found faces
a street and can be reached by a
man of ordinary height Proponents
of this theory said that the bomb
could have done but little damage
to the courthouse if 1t exploded
where Ii was found.
Other theories included the sup
position that radicals had placed the
bomb or that a disgruntled litigant
had decided to blow up the court.
AS the dynamite was being taken
from the suitcase Police Captain
John Donnelly saw newspaper
photographer preparing to take a
flashlight photograph of it. After
he had prevented this Captain Don
nelly said:
There would have been a number
of new faces among the angels if
that monor had exploded his fash"
After examining the contents of
the suitcase the explosives were talk
en- down the bay and thrown over
