Buyers are therefore cautioned to pay attention to the auctioneer's announcements. The purchaser, Bhould at once examine his purchase and if there has been any misrepresentation of a material fact by the seller to the injury of the buyer, it will be sufficient ground for repudiating the purchase. All remarks made by seller at the time the stock is put up for sale, as to blemishes or unsoundness, are written down by the clerk opposite the horse sold, and in case the purchaser does not hear the remarks made, it is not the fault of the seller, and will be no excuse for the purchaser not paying for the same.

LOCAL MEII ARE III FIGHTOVER BILL Commercial Club Representatives Favor Proposed Shade Tree Law.
Five Richmond men went to Indianapolis today to lobby at the hearing of the shade tree bill, which is fathered by the local Commercial club and which provides for the regulation of the planting and protection of shade trees in cities and towns by a commission of three men to be appointed for five year terms and to serve without pay for the interest of the city. Attorney Perry Freeman of the Richmond 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 Seidel. 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 it. 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 will become an act at the present session of the legislature. 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, trimming 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 of not less than $1 nor more than $100. The commission would have the power to order removed any obstruction deemed by them to be detrimental to the growth and spread of the tree or plant.

An examination for a photographer will be held at the post office Wednesday. 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 forty-two years old and that many antiquarians have pronounced at least two hundred and fifty. Dr. Mendenhall knows it to be the former, however, as he purchased It from Elisha Hirst, the well 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. It was owned by a family by the name of Brown. The parents died, the estate had to be settled, and as each one of the children wanted the clock, they finally agreed to sell it 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 it away, thinking, by so doing, it would ruin the clock for anyone else. But this did not affect the clock In the leasj. One of the heirs also threw away the key, but Mr. Hirst made another just as good and that Is the one I now have. "Elisha Hirst." November, 1906.

(National News Association) MEXICO CITY. March 3 The provisional government of Mexico Is awaiting with some anxiety the incoming of the Wilson administration at Washington tomorrow, not knowing what policy the United States may then adopt toward the Mexican situation.

The Mexicans and foreigners are thinking of sending a committee to Washington to urge the retention of Mr. Wilson. If this is carried out the committee may leave for Washington next week. Felix Rablasa. the new Mexican ambassador to the United States is also expected to speak 'n favor ef the retention of Mr. Wilson.

Political leaders 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 a most sensational nature" is going to happen shortly.
