COURT FORESHADOWED
BY ACTION OF HOUSE
COMMITTEE TODAY

Washington, March 15.-The first
effective step in the campaign for the
abolition of the commerce court was
taken, today, when the House Com
mittee on Interstate and Foreign
Commerce, by vote of II to 8, de-
cided to report favorably 20 the
House the bill Of Representative
Sims, of Tennessee, abolishing the
tribunal.
This action was taken despite an
earnest plea for a flair trial. for the
court, made, yesterday, by Attorney
General Wickersham. The argument
of Representative Sims, that the
court had nullified 20 out of 27 de-
cisions of the Interstate Commerce
Commission in the past year, had
great weight with the committee.

of the most exciting and interesting
1-mile pursuit races ever pulled off at
this popular amusement place For
rest Hamilton of Waterville, who is
a very fast skater, and winner of
several matches, was pitted against
Thomas Golden, the young Houlton
flyer. The race started with Golden
choosing the east end of the rink and
Hamilton the west end. At the crack
of the gun, both boys got good
start and sprinted as if shot from a
catapult. continuing an even distance
for several laps, when Golden's sup
porters broke forth in loud yells Of
encouragement, and paced by Carpen-
ter. Golden got n start of about 10
feet and held it until within the last
laps at which time q bad turn
caused Golden TO lose his lead and
the race finished in tie, the con-
testants securing an ovation that was
deafening. Everybody agreed it was
a great and closely fought race, but
the young racers are not satisfied and
will race again. Manager Murree
made both boys a substantial pres
ent. The time of the race was 2 min,
80 secs. A big delegation accompanied
Hamilton down from Waterville. over
600 people We're in attendance.

The craving for liquor and drugs is not
a disease. 1t Is the effect of the accu-
mutation of alcohol or drug poison in the
system. There are treatments which
have been administered for more than
20 years that have claimed that these
habits are a disease and have treated
them as such. They have succeeded
more or less, by the injection of various
drugs into the system with the hypo-
dermic needle. in overcoming the craving
for. a brief period. but almost invariably
the appetite has returned with renewed
vgor, and consequently the patient has
again resorted to the alcohol or drug,
using larger quantities than ever before,
and their systems being more or less af-
fected by the powerful drugs admins
tered, have become hopeless human
wrecks.
These old so called cures that have
little to recommend them but their age
are things of the past Modern methods
prevail today. There is nothing that uas
advanced so rapidly as medical science
There is hardly disease of any kind
that is treated in me same manner today
by the medical fraternity that it was 30
years ago, methods of treating all all
ments have wonderfully improved. where
it used to require rom month six
weeks to get only Temporary Relief
from the effects of drinking liquor, it
now requires but few hours, to be ex-
act, three days, to be Forever rid of the
craving, regain normal health and
vigor and eradicate entirely the effects
of past Indulgence.

Climbers to Go to Waldoboro.

Commissioner of Agriculture John +.
Buckley will send crew of eight or 10
climbers to Waldoboro, Monday, to en-
gage in brown-tail moth work in that
town. He finds that although that town
made an appropriation for brown-tail
moth determination the old board of Sc
lectmen neglected to notify the property
owners in regard to their duties in the
matter and that there was not sufficient
time for the new board TO legally act.
The municipal officers made no obiec-
lions to the State crew to come in but
did not feel that under the existing cir
circumstances they could properly act in
the matter.
Commissioner Buckley states that al
though climbers are paid $3.50 for an
eight-hour day he finds them very hard
to secure on account of several recent
fatal accidents to climbers.
