been thought that the Isle OF SPICE was
one Of the best things in the line of mu-

was in many ways far ahead OF the Old

The company was a good one, the prln-

Miss Harrietta Lee, one of the favorltes

pleasing last evening as she was on the
occasion of her visit to Augusta earlier
in the season. Another bright particular

Coffee Topers as Bad as Others.

"a friend of our family who lived
with US a short time was a great coffee
drnker and a continual sufferer with
dyspepsia. He admitted that coffee
disagreed with him, but you know how
the coffee drinker will hold on to his

dyspepsia.
"One day he said to me that Postum

and suggested that he would like very
much to try it. / secured a package

our family. He became very fond of it
and in a short time his dyspepsia
disappeared. He continued using the
Postum and in about three months

Banquet in Brewer-Go to Bucksport

Orono, Me, May S.-(Special) 1.-The
banquet Of the freshmen class of the
University OF Maine was held in
Euclsport, Tuesday afternoon, at 4
o'clock. 1t is a custom in the uni
vcrsity for each freshman class to
give a banquet, which the sophomore
class tries to prevent. 1t is no easy
matter for Il class of nearly 200 to
leave the campus, unknown to the
sophomore class. And this has been
especially difficult this year as the
class # 1906 has taken every precau-
ton to prevent it. The committee in
charge Of the banquet arranged to hold
it in Brewer At go O'Clock Tuesday
morning. This fact was not made
known to the freshman class until
Monday afternoon. when during the
government inspection of the uni
versity battalion WORD was passed
down the line that two special cars
would be waiting on tile outskirts OF
OrOnO at 10.
In spite Of all the precautions Of the
freshman their plan was discovered.
A sophomore who happened to be pass
ing through Brewer on Saturday saw
two freshmen aiding a teamstor to
carry several large boxes into the Odd

answer the sophomore class which was
soon notified, made their plans to take
possession of the banquet.
At - o'clock the freshmen left tie
campus and after walking a consider
able distance in order to escape from
the reads which they thought might
be guarded, thay arrived at the place
" here the special car was in readiness.
The freshmen upon reaching Bangor,
went into the car barn while scouts
were sent out to reconnOiter. In two
hours time they returned with the re-
port that the sophomores were scat

ing that the sophomores had failed
to find the place where the banquet
was to he held and not seeing any
freshmen in Bangor would return by
train TO the university. But the
freshmen We're mistaken. as the sopho-
morcs had found the place where the
banquet was to be held and by the time
that 1910 had found out its mistake the
sophomorcs had dnvoured the dinner
and had retired to obtain little rest.
The freshmen seeing that they had
been outWitted went to Frey'S reStau-
rant to obtain something to eat and try
to make some arrangements to hold
their banquet somewhere outside Of
Bangor. After much discussion the
committee in charge decided upon
BuclispOrt as the best place, and ar
engagements were quickly made with
the Robinson House to prepare a din
ncr by two O'Clock at which time the
II 30 from Bangor would arrive in
BuCksport. The freshmen passed the
remainder of the morning marching
through the streets of Bangor. The
few sophomores who remained in Ban
COR belived that the freshmen would
shortly return to the university and
consider themselves defeated, but by
two O'Clock the 1910 men were in
Bucksport feeling perfectly secure as
they knew that with the start they
had obtained no special train could
reach them in time to prevent the ban
Quet.
After 4 hearty dinner and many
witty tnasts on the part of the differ
cnt members of the class, a baseball
team was chosen and n game was
quickly arranged with the Bucksport
Seminary. Libby was in the box for
freshmen and in seven innings struck
out nine men. The game ended with
the score of to l in favor of the
freshmen. The freshmen then marched
to the station singing the Maine songs
and giving the Maine and their class
yells. They arrived back at the uni
versity at o'clock a tired but happy
crowd.
1t is understood that the sophomores
are the winners in this banquet as the
freshmen failed to hold it on the night
that they had planned to.
