AGRICULTURE in SCHOOLS.
Interesting Address BY Dean Hurd at
Congregational Chapel.

Prof. William D. Eurd, dean of the
college of agriculture Of the University
of Maine spoke Thursday evening at
the congregational chapel on State
street under the auspices of the local
board of education upon the move
ment for the establishment of courses
of agriculture in the public schools.
The chapel was we'll filled with those
who came to hear the lecture and Sup
erintendent La Rue was present with
a good representation of Augusta
teachers. ii'
Dean IIurd first gave an address set
ting forth the advantages and cost of
such q course. He argued that while
manual training courses had their
place in the city schools courses of ag-
riculture should occupy a similar po-
sition in the country school courses.
He said that the cost of such a course
in the schools would be no more than
that of q course in chemistry or ply
sizes. 1t would require teacher with
agricultural training to teach the ele-
mentary principles of agriculture. A
vacant lot would furnish the plot Of
ground necessary for carrying on the
work of such a course.
Following the address Dean Hurd eX-

A CLOSE SHAVE
Many Of Them Happening Every Day
but Soon Forgotten.

Close shaves would be of more fire.
ouent occurrence but for the tender
faces of many men, which will not per-
nit of shaving often. Heretofore,
nothing has been said in these columns
about poslam, new skin discovery. in
connection with it's use after shaving.
Its publicity and sales have been con-
fined almost exclusively to its remark
able properties as an eczema cure; it
stops the itching at once and cures the
worst cases in a few days. While the
application Of poslam after shaving is
one of it's minor uses, such as for PIN
pies, the complexion, etc, shavers will
find it a revelation, as it does for abra-
sions, roughness, and severe scrapings
what it does for all manner of skin
difTiculties-heals and cures IN a few
hours. 1t is the only article possessing
real antiseptic and curative value that
has ever been exploited for this purpose
and will soothe and tone up the skin as
no toilet preparation could possibly do
Poslam can be had for fifty cents at
any reliable druggists, particularly
Coughiin's Pharmacy, who make a spe-
ciality of it. Or the Emergency Labor
atories. No. 80 West 25th street, New
York City, will send trial supply free
by mail to any one who will write for
it. This is sufficient to show results in
"a hours.

"PoIIy of the Circus" Specials.

At the Empire Theatre Lewiston next
Friday and Saturday Frederic Thomp-
son will present his magnificent prod
uction Of Polly of the Circus" mas
sive play which can only be done on the
largest stages. The presentation there
will have an added interest as it will
mark the return to the stage of Mabei
Taliaferro who has fully recovered
from her recent illness, which kept her
out of the cast for over four weeks. This
will indeed be a pleasant announcement
to theatregocrs as Miss TaliaferrO's
success in the role of Polly" the little
circus rider, was electrical on the first
presentation of the piece in New York
at the Liberty Theatre, last season. So
great was the Impression she made that
she was Immediately promoted to star
dom, and continued the balance of the
season to a succession of crowded and
delighted houses. Since that time the
charming and dainty little actress has
duplicated her great hit in Chicago,
Philadelphia, and Baltimore. The pro-
duction here will be identical with that
given in New York, every detail will be
the same and the company that aided
50 materially then will assist here IL
contains many favorites, including the
sterling player, John Findlay.
Specials will be run from Augusta,
Gardiner etc, for the Saturday after
noon and evening performances.
Seats may now be ordered of Mr.
Emery at the Colonial Music Company.

THE SUPERIOR COURT.
Illness of Defendant Hats Progress Of
Clara Vaughan Case.

The defence of the liquor case
against Clara Vaughan of Gardiner
came on in the superior court Thurs
day forenoon. Several witnesses We're
called, who testified to the good char
acter of the woman. All the witnesses
although subjected to a rigid cross
examination by County Attorney Hill
dreth testified that they had never
seen drunken men about her place and
that they did not know that she was
in the habit of drinking. The case
was halted before the defence was
completed by the respondent being
taken i'll in the court room. The ILL
ness was found to be Of so serious a
nature that it was decided to re-assign
the case for later in the term.
The case against Fred Smith of Au-
gusta for single sale was then tried be-
fore a drawn jury. The witness for the
State was Alfred Collins, who was
brought from the county JAIL where
he was serving sentence for intoxica-
ton, to testify. He testified to buying
half pint and several drinks of whis-
key OF Smith. On cross examination
he admitted that he had been convict
ed of larceny and had also served time
for intoxication. Judge Maher testified
as to the record of Collins in the Au
gusta police court. Smith took the
stand in his own behalf denying the
statements of Collins. The jury re-
turned verdict of not guilty.
The last case to occupy the attention
of the court for the day was that Of
the State VS.. Abbie Lawrence, the case
upon which she was tried at this time
being a liquor nuisance. City Marshal
Fletcher and other officers of the Au-
gusta police force testified to making
a raid upon her house on Bridge street
and finding of a quantity of liquor
there. The case was in progress when
court adjourned.
