Only Veteran la Lower
WASHINGTON, D. C. Aug.
As active and vigorous as many men
fifty, Gen. Isaac R. Sherwood, who
represents the Ninth Ohio District In
Congress, passed his seventy-eighth
birthday anniversary today. Gen Sher-
wood Is a man of unique distinction,
of the members of the present
House of Representatives he Is the
only Veteran of the civil war.
This is a rather remarkable distinct-
ion, when it Is remembered that a de-
or so ago a substantial percent-
age of the members of Congress were
war veterans. The Democratic land-
slide of last November swept three
ion veterans, of
of Illinois and Hill of
Connecticut, out the House and
Sherwood the lone survivor. In
view of the present age of every sold-
of the it is reasonable to sup-
pose that the Ohio representative
he the last of the in blue to sit
the lower house of Congress.

remarks the New York Evening Post
Some of them profess to see a com-
age of clocks that Is to
succeed this clockwork age, the one
we live in. That is to say, instead of
each clock trying in its small
way to keep exact step to the march
of the minute by means of Its own lit-
paraphernalia in pendulum, spring
and cog wheel, there will exist a sys-
of master clocks, one in every
great center, taking the time from

and la tarn it on to the
of neighboring clocks by other
apparatus

IN LAST SERMON
Preacher Held Final
Services Sunday
US CHURCH
Impressive and Inspiring Sermons .
Popular Preacher Closed Ills
Pastorate In Green.
Large congregations greeted Rev
E. M. Hoyle at both services at the
Memorial Methodist church
and people who turned
out to hear the sermons were highly
pleased. It was the last day that Mr.
Hoyle was to be here, and many of
the people of the town were anxious
to hear his final utterances In Green-
ville. It will be remembered that
Mr. Hoyle sometime ago asked for a
transfer from work to a church
in the city of the pastor
making the change for the benefit
of his wife's health.
With his family, and accompanied
by his mother, Mr. Hoyle returned
to this town on last Thursday to
arrangements for his departure, and
to pack and ship his household goods.
After he released Rev. E.
J. who has been serving
here during Mr. absence
the summer and
to preach his last sermons to
his people yesterday.
Is no feeling whatever
between the preacher and the
of bis church. He explained
at his final service last night that he
was leaving on account of having
this opportunity to get to a climate
that Is better suited to the health
of one member of his family. There
no financial advantage In the trans-
fer, as the salary In the mountain
city la exactly the same as here.
While the local Methodist church is
at the present time struggling
liquidate tho debt on the church
building, and is at the same time
raising money with which to build
the parsonage, Mr. Hoyle says that
he is not leaving to escape hard work.
The church to which he Is going
just now engaged In the construction
of a new Sunday school annex that
will mean an expenditure of between
and and It will re-
a great amount of work
that sum.
Tho people of the town.
of their church affiliation, will
part with Mr. Hoyle with feelings of
regret. He is now
his second year as pastor of the lo- j
cal Methodist church, and during his
stay here has done a great work for
the cause of righteousness in Green-
ville. The Methodist church has
gained in members and has raised
contributions to every cause. Mr.
Hoyle has taken an active interest
In the welfare of the town, whether
his church were concerned in the
movement or not, and his influence
for good and for tho betterment of
those with whom he has come in
contact has been greatly felt.
He and his family will leave the
town during the latter part of this
week, and will go directly to Ashe-
where Mr. Hoyle will
take active charge of the work
of the church to which he goes. The
best wishes of hundreds of people
of this town will go with him In his
new field of labor, and all will regret
to see him leave Greenville.

WASHINGTON, Aug.
hour developments in the Mexican
situation today postponed delivery of
President Wilson's special message to
congress until Wednesday and
that the government of
President Huerta after all might
withdraw or modify its rejection of
the proposals of the United States.
At the request of Senor
Mexican minister of foreign affairs,
which was based upon supplementary
suggestions by John Lind, adviser to
the United States embassy in
co City, President Wilson consented
to postpone his address to congress
until o'clock Wednesday afternoon.
It was officially stated in that con-
that in no case would the
United States withdraw from the bas-
principles of Its position paramount
among which is a consistent refusal
to recognize Huerta.
Official announcement was made of
the four original proposals by the
United States presented to Huerta
by Mr. Lind.
They
Cessation of hostilities in the rev-
and a definite
An early and free election for Pres-
Huerta to bind himself not to be
a candidate.
Agreement by all parties to abide
by the results of the election.
Upon these proposals the Huerta
government at the last moment asked
further time for and
upon certain supplementary
by Mr. Lind, the nature of which
l. not being divulged here, the request
for a postponement was made.
White House officials positively
stated that Mr. Lind had not been re-
called from Mexico City and added
that if he had left for Vera Cruz it
would be for only a short visit. He is
expected to return to Mexico City to
continue the negotiations.
Preparations at the capitol hurried-
made for a Joint session of the
house and senate were called off.
President Wilson's message, a
of about words, was lock-
ed up In the White House vaults await
the next developments.
It is generally understood that the
message is very kind toned toward
Mexico, the United States
government's position, expresses gen-
friendship for the Mexican
and the reasons for In-
upon elections and the
of Huerta.
The expression of the American pol-
icy follows a Ions and unusual effort
to the de facto authorities In
Mexico City to suspend hostilities, con-
a constitutional and to
secure freedom of choice by
the present

honor to the citizenship of a county

Dr. H. C. Carter made a most In-
address in the court house
Tuesday night on the mosquito. H
described the varieties and customs of
these troublesome insects, and urged
tho importance of extermination by
destroying or removing their breed-
places. Dr. Carter said it is not
the dirty mud bole that develops the
dangerous type of mosquito, but main-
such receptacles as will hold
that are thrown carelessly around
the premises. The mosquito does not
take malaria from and
carry it to the person, but he spreads
by biting a person already
infected and then going and biting
a well person, thus carrying disease
from one to another.
It is important to remove the
breeding places of mosquitoes, and
equally Important to screen them out
of the home.
The instruction Dr. Carter is
along this line is very helpful.
