Everybody called her mother, and the firemen's voted her that honorary title for life, "Chief Clinton today drives his motor car over the paved streets of Abilene, where in '67, as a government, scoui he crossed a lonely, broad plain without a but rank with tall grass and literrlly working alive with game--deer, antelope, turkeys and coyotes. "Active, clean, almost dapper, the chief today is straight and springy of step, with the old gleam burning in his eyes and the energy that has always characterized his every action still showing no sign of exhaustion.

It -sras ITVO minutes to midnight, and time vas pressing. The chief and his assailant clinched and rolled into the gutter. It, was an evenly-matched pair, and the decision in doubt for a time. 'I hated to do Chief Clinton explained, "but I didn't want to miss standing on the corner, so I walloped the Mexican over the head vritii my sixshooter, tore loose from, the unconscious man and dashed for the corner, arriving just as the whistles announced the arrival of the New "Another time the chief had been to Weatherford for a visit and was coming back on the evening of December 31. The train went into the ditch near Elmdale, nine miles east of Abilene, and it was apparent the wreck could not be cleared in time to permit arrival by midnight.

Chief Clinton persuaded the section foreman to get his crew together, and mounting the handcar the keeper of New Year dates drifted down the rails just a few minutes before the witching- hour. "In addition to being chief of the police department. Chief Clinton is chief of the fire department and has been for many years. Several times inopportune fire alarms have all but caused the chief to miss his date at the comer. "On the chief's coat sleeve are seven golci stripes and some day an eighth will be added.

Each stripe stands for five years sen-ice as chief of police of Abilene. Ke has held" that office without a break: for 36 years." The rest of the story is a tribute to the veteran peace officer: "For those who do not know the chief personally it may seem remarkable that the office of police is an elective one. not an appointive one. For those who do know the chief, there is nothing remarkable about his repeated victories at the polls. "3om in Dublin, Ireland.

John J. Clinton is now over 73 years old (Jan. 1. 1922), perhaps the oldest active head of a police and fire department in the country. He never misses a fire, and takes an active hand in fighting them.

Cody before that man won his sobriquet. 'Buffalo "Chief Clinton was city marshal of Dodge City. Kansas, when that town was reckoned about the toughest proposition on the North American continent.

He took part in many famous Indian fights, including Lone Tree Crossing, Adobe Walls and the Water Hole "Chief Clinton's companion pened to be there, but the event became traditional with Jinks Mc- Gse it did with He has been ill recently, but he will be pretty sick to miss the New Year's watch at Chestnut Saturday night. Charles Hawes and Ben Lassiter, both dead, were present at the original party. Ben L. Peevey was not on hand in 1884, but he'stood many of the watches with Clinton and has helped to preserve the tradition. T.

A. Bledsoe is another who has continued the custom through many years. Dr. and Mrs. Joseph Daly are two others who often have joined the watchers.

With Chief Clinton missing since 1921, it has become tradition that. his gun--a gift to Jinks McGee-be fired as the New Year arrives.
