AN AlL-NIGHT RIDE.
Augusta Autoists Have Hard Time
Finding Ocean Point by Starlight.

1t is reported that two Augusta
young men, both of whom are employ
ed in stores on Water street and not
many doors apart. are just at present
engaged during their spare moments
in perusing the pages of the Maine At
las for the purpose of finding out lust
how many miles of road there are in
Lincoln county between Wiscasset and
Boothbay and just where the different
roads lead. Previous to the Fourth
of July Lincoln county possessed no
particular interest for either of them
but now they are so wrapped up i'm the
subject that they can't help talking
about it,
The Fourth is to blame for the whole
business. The two young men had an
invitation 20 pass the holiday at ocean
Point, and as one Of them owns n
runabout ii was decided that the trim
to the Point should be made i'm that
way, Monday night. II is not a very
iohg run from Augusta and as the bows
got away about 8 o'clock they should
have reached their destination not long
after midnight, but fate was against
them and they didn't do 1t.
When they reached Wiscasset the
town was in deep sumber and thew
were Obliged to awaken one of the in
habltants, and in response to their
question regarding the road to Booth
bay they We're told to follow the tele-
graph poles" which they did. Runner
says that they found lots of telegraph
lines, but they kept following faithfully
and finally landed in front of a rail-
road station, on the sign of which they
spelled out the word Newcastle"
| Then they had to get another good
citizen out of bed in order that they
might get their bearings There are
many details of the trip that are moi
given out for publication, but enough
is known to state that the run from
Newcastle to the Point was not made
over the shortest course and that II
was about o'clock in the mornine
when the travellers reached their des-
| tination; also that those who had SAT
up and waited for them had become
tired out and gone to bed
