Gets Clear by Grandmother
Paying for Clothing Stolen by
Him, Also Costs of Court
HIS EXPERIENCES DURING
PAST TWO YEARS VARIED
Charles Freeman and Mrs. Irma
Briggs Arraigned on Serious
Charge-Are Let Off Easy
Case Continued for Sentence

Arthur Moody, who was arrested
Wednesday evening for the larceny,
May 10, 1912, of a suit of clothes be-
longing to Charles w. Page of Au-
gusta was arraigned at o'clock
Thursday morning before Judge Ian
caster of the municipal court. The
respondent admitted his guilt and en-
tered a plea of guilty. Sentence in
the case was suspended and Moody's
grandmother, Mrs. Jennie Adley, paid
for the soften clothing and the costs
of court, amounting in all to $3112,
Whereupon Moody was released.
During his examination by the court
Moody manifested an inclination dur
ing his statements to deviate more or
less from the confines of the truth,
but the court succeeded in drawing
from him the desired information
Moody admitted that on the date of
the alleged theft he took the suit
which was a new one, and had never
been worn, from Pages room at the
Augusta State hospital, after which
he went to the Cushnoc House and
changed clothing and went that night
to Boston.
After his arrival in Boston he said
IndI ne worked Tor awhile SHINING
shoes and then got a job on farm
in Quincy. While there he was arrest
ed for stealing a watch and was given
a sentence of Ia months in the Con-
cord reformatory. After his release
from that institution he went to Bos-
ton and through an employment
agency got a job IN the Tewksbury
asylum, where he worked until last
July, when he came to Augusta to
see his mother. and had been here
since that time, working at odd jobs
AT the time of his arrest he had been
a bell boy at the Cony House for two
days.
Charles A. Freeman and Mrs. Irna
Briggs, both of Augusta, who were ar
rested together about 10 o'clock We'd
nesday night in Freeman's rooms in the
Darby block. where he conducts a
clothes pressing business, furnished
another case for the court Thursday
morning, they being arraigned on the
charge of wanton and lascivious be-
havior, to which they each pleaded
not guilty, and after an examination
by the court the case was continued
for sentence. If no further complaints
ARE received by the court regarding the
two in question it is probable that the
case will be ended where it is.

NEURALGIC PAINS

Among the causes of neuralgia the
most important is the general physi-
cal condition of the patient. Neuralgia
Is most common in persons reduced in
strength by over work or some form
of over exertion physical or mental,
or by loss of sleep. Anaemia, or lack
of good, red blood is a common cause
Of neuralgia. The reason for this is
plain. The nerves get their nourish-
ment through the blood When the
blood is thin and weak the nerves are
badly nourished, they become infiamed
and neuralgia pains are produced.
These pains have been described as
the cry of a starved nerve"
Hot applications to soothe these in
famed nerves and DIR. Williams Pink
Pills to build up the blood and carry
the needed elements to the nerves is
the correct treatment and one that
has brought good results in so many
cases that it is no longer an expert
ment. Headache. backache, Sleep

breakdown, st. Vitus' dance and the
functional forms of partial paralysis

THE So CALLED ERA OF THE
RENAISSANCE OF HISTORY.
Larned includes 1t in His Fourth
Epoch.

Larned's division of all History
into six great epochs is logical as
we'll as interesting. His fourth
epoch is one OF the greatest of all
historical eras In that period, for
instance appear Gutenberg. the in
ventor of printing: Columbus, who
discovered new world; Copernicus,
who first demonstrated that our
earth was a satellite of the sun; KEEP
Ter, who learned the secrets of the
planets, and formulated the laws of
their movements; Calico, who an
ucipated the methods of modern sci
ence; Cervantes, who wrote one of
the worlds masterpieces; Raphael
and Michael Angelo, who raised
painting to a height not known be-
fore; Loyola, who founded the great
order of the Jesuits; Luther, who
wrought change in the religious
faith of Europe; and Shakespeare,
perhaps the mightiest human intel
lect the world has ever seen. These
are among the great names treated
of by Larned in his fourth epoch
which, it may seem strange, did not
produce a single military genius of
the first order. There can be no
question that Larned's History of
the World, now being distributed to
the readers of this paper. is the
greatest of it's kind, and should be
in every home in the country. His
description of his fourth epoch
alone, is we'll worth the small dis
tributing cost asked, and the cou-
pons appearing daily In these col
umns should be cut out without de-
lay and presented at this office.

Two sun spots are now visible, or
at least have been observed on each
of the last four days. The spots were
first seen by local observers, Sunday,
and have been plainly visible with the
naked eye since then. Both spots APP
pear to be above the horizontal diam
eter of the sun. Each, it is estimated,
is over 5000 miles in diameter. The
spots move to the observers left but
on account of the suns movement,
they have a slight apparent movement
toward the right. The spots are best
discerned by throwing an image of
the sun on a piece of white paper by
means of a field or opera glass.

The new fire alarm box which was
recently ordered by the city council.
has arrived and has been placed in
position at the corner Of Oak and
Flagg streets. Chief Buckley has made
the necessary connections with the
alarm system and the box is now in
commission. The number of the box
is 511 and the call will be given by
five blasts followed by a pause, then
one blast followed by a long pause.
then another blast, the call to be re-
peated three times. The reason for
giving the above number to the box
is that the boxes bearing numbers in
the 40's and SOS are arranged in To-
calities, and as the SOS. which are in
the section in which Is located the
new box, are all used up, the num-
Der 511 was chosen.
