HASTINGS The courthouse clock which, has tolled the city's hours since 1894, for some uncertain rea son, has failed for hours or days at a time to operate properly so often lately that local residents, have come to speak of it with jovial fa miliarity as it were an old repro bate acquaintance. Saturday when it struck every five minutes for a spell and then struck the hours in correctly thereafter, the comman comment among townspeople was "The Old Clock's off on a bat again." When the clock was put In the new courthouse in 1894 local resl dents contributed for a large bell so that the chime might be heard and advise the residents of the time of day. For 31 years it complied with the implication of its inscrip tion which is hewn below it: "At proper times my voice I'll raise, and sound for my subscribers, praise." Because something happened to, or someone stole, the master clock (a small mechanism which controls the larger clock) in 1925 and what caused the clock to stop was not known for several years, the clock failed in its duty. When two local young men found the reason for the failure of the old clock the county officers and others contributed to cover a bill for it. It again took up its duties In 1935, and has continued more or less successfully until the last year or so when it has gone on an occasional "bat."
