A HISTORY OF 7,oco YEARS.
From the First Pharaoh of Egypt to
the Present Day.

The first authentic records of man
kind are dated nearly 1000 years ago.
From that time until the goth century
man has contrived to leave some rec
ord of his doings and his sayings so
that his descendants mikht know who
and what he was. With these records
before him, Larned traces the life of
life of human society, in successive
generations by a survey of history
not only Of naked events-but the
forces, movements and influences by
and through which the man of today
and the life he is now living, have
come to be what they are. 1t requires
a genius TO do this And Josephus
Nelson Larned, author of the famous
History for Ready Reference is con-

historic writing. His History of the
World now being distributed by this
paper. is his latest work, the result of
many years of research and study in
the field of history 1t is as accurate as
a photograph and as entertaining as
a novel. To one who has never read
history it is an education in itself.
To those who have read the ordinary
school histories, it is revelation.

The nti-Mosquito Raid

The crusade recently launched in
many cities to eXterminate the mos
quito should be taken up all over the
country. While more formidable in
some places than others, it should not
daunt a people who have made such
definite inroads against pests and pur-
veyors of disease in general as we
have in late years. Indeed, we have
included even the mosquito in our
conquests to such an extent as appar
emily to wipe out that particular spe-
cies that spreads the germs of yellow
fever. OF course, the American peo-
pie have learned the primary lesson
in all such crusades, namely the rela-
tive value of modern sanitation.
Cleaning out the breeding places, do
ing away with standing water OF
marshes and removing the cause OF
mosquito breeding is the first step to
be taken and that, as we say, has been
taken to large extent-Omaha Bee.

JOS. VIGUE GETS
JAIL SENTENCE
IN LIQUOR CASE
Four Lewiston Men Contributed
Literally to Kennebec
County Treasury

Joseph Vigue, who lives at the rear
of SO Washington street and at which
place Friday evening Deputy Sheriffs
Lewis and Pomerleau found some in
toxieating liquor, was arraigned Sat
urday morning before Judge Lancas-
ter of the municipal court to answer
to charge of search and seizure.
Bigue was represented by Former
Judge Benedict F. Maher and entered
plea of not guilty.
The testimony given in by the depu-
ty sheriffs who made the search was
that on the occasion of their visit to
the house in question they say two
quart bottles of whiskey on the floor
behind the door of a bedroom, but
that woman by the name of Lajoie
who was in the house hurriedly
grabbed the bottles and broke them
on the floor The sheriffs offered the
remains of the bottles as evidence and
were positive that had contained
whiskey before, being broken. Com
plants had been made about the place
and it was known that liquor had ar
rived Friday afternoon and was d.
| dressed to the respondent. Vigue was
not at home at the time that the
! sheriffs visited the house but was
met by them soon after leaving the
| place and was taken into custody.
The respondent was not placed on
the stand. Judge Maher in his argu-
ment claimed that the respondent
who was absent at the time of the
seizure, had not been connected with
the case and that he would not be re-
| sponsible for the act of the Lajoie
woman, and also argued that the wo-
man should be arrested for illegal
possession, but did not advise SUCH
action as she is poor woman with
several children on her hands
In the face of the evidence intro
duced the court found cause to hold
the respondent guilty and imposed a
sentence of 500 and costs and in adj
dition thereto 90 days in Jail, and in
default of payment of fine and costs
60 days additional, from which an ap-
peal was taken and bonds furnished
in the sum of 5000 for appearance at
the January term of the superior
court
In addition to the above case four
men supposed to belong in Lewiston
and who gave their names as Joseph
and Gideon Paradis, Joseph Turcotte
and Gideon Lessard, were before the
court because Of having made trouble
on their way to Augusta from Water
Vile Friday evening by trolley. The
four were put off of one car at East
Nassalboro but took the car follow
ing and left it on its arrival at Pet
tengills Corner because of having
overheard the conductor telephoning
to the city for police. Two of the men
we're arrested at Pettengills Corner
and the other two on the Kennebec
bridge
On being arraigned Saturday morn
ing all were found guilty. Joseph and
Gideon Paradis were each given a
sentence of $40 and costs or 90 days
in jail on the charge of intoxication,
and each given a sentence of IS and
costs of 80 days in jail for splitting on
the car floor Lessard was given a
sentence of $40 and costs or 80 days
in Jail for intoXication, and Turcotte,
who although he was intoxicated had
tried to keep the others from making
trouble, was allowed to go upon the
payment of the costs of court.
