One of the things which cannot be
easily explained came to pass at about
o'clock Tuesday morning on Water
street. An automobile which was
passing down the street back fired"
when at point about opposite Hotel
North, and while such performances
on the part of automobiles are not
uncommon remarkable feature in
connection with this particular in
stance was that just as the report of
the explosion was heard the attention
Of a gentleman who was passing the
Granite National bank was attracted
by an English sparrow which fell dead
at his feet on the sidewalk, having
fallen presumably from one of the
cross arms of a light pole nearby. The
man picked the bird up and while it
was still warm 1t manifested no sign of
life. There were no signs of violence
about the body and nothing to indicate
that death had been due to other than
natural causes, but the man is still
wondering what killed the bird
whether in some way it came in con-
tact with the electric current of the
street light or whether the sudden
noise of the "back-fire" explosion
scared it to death.

ness in indirect influence because it
consumed the maximum of energy for
the minimum result, where the goth
century methods are for conserving
energy. She disproved the implica-
ton that women would be partisan,
stating that bills for the lettering of
humanity would be presented by
groups of women, representing many
political creeds.
She cited statistics to prove that
women use the ballot in the Equal
Suffrage states as generally as men.
She compared the laws in Equal
Suffrage states with those in non-Suf-
fraga states to the confusion of the
latter and told of many ways where
the Maine laws might be bettered.
She showed how the Suffragists have
always been pioneers of forward move
ments and the Suffragists have
opposed them, coming in to reap the
benefits after the battle has been won.
She finished by denouncing ultra
Feminism and ridiculing the POSSIBLE
ity of it making any Roadway in
America.
She claimed as true Feminism 'the
right of women to labor. to fail to
succeed as humand beings only I'M
tainted by the accident of their sex,
restricted, only, by the limitations of
their potentiality," and stated this as
the fundamental reason why women
wanted the ballot.
The afternoon closed with hall
hour 70 discussion when both Miss
Bates and Mrs. Whitehouse replied to
questions.

SAYS SULPHUR
DRIVES ECZEMA
FROM THE SKIN

Sulphur, says renowned dermatoi-
ogist, just common bold-sulphur made
into q thick cream will soothe and heal
the skin when irritated and broken out
with Eczema or any form of eruption
The moment 1t Is applied all itching
ceases and after two or three applica-
lions the Eczema disappears, leaving
the skin clear and smooth.
He tells Eczema sufferers to get from
any good pharmacy an ounce of bold
sulphur cream and apply it to the irri-
tated parts the same as you would any
cold cream.
For many years common bold-sul-
phur has occupied a secure position In
the practice Of dermatology and cuta-
neous affections by reason Of its
parasite destroying property. 1t is
not only parasiticidal, but also anti
pruritic, antisepic and remarkably
healing in all irritable and infiam-
matory conditions of the skin. While
not always effecting permanent cure
1t never fails to instantly subdue the
angry itching and irritation and heal
the Eczema right up and it Is often
years later before any eruption again
appears on the skin.-Ady.

Youth and Maid Flee to Augusta
To Wed==Her Ma Tries to Prevent

1t is seldom that an atmosphere OF
love perVades the confines of the Au-
gusta municipal courtroom-that place
set apart for the settlement OF the
various types of troubles which will
from time to time find their way into
the lives of some of the eity's inhab-
itants-but it must be admitted that
such was the case Tuesday afternoon,
for the presence of the divine passion
would not have been more manifest
had Dan Cupid himself been perched
upon the table in front of the judge s
desk.
But though the little god of the bow
and arrows was not present, as far as
mortal eyes could see, two of his dis
ciples were, and as is usually the case
they were a youth and a maid. The
young man, who is of Greek national
ity, rejoices in the name of Aphanasias
Zlahonikolas although he admitted
to the court that when among Eng
disappearing people he called him
self James Brown, because the latter
name is easier to speak,, and the
young woman, whose name is Lena
Diem, is of French Canadian origin.
Both belong in Lisbon. And it may
be added that they love one another.
The presence of Aphanasias i'll court
was due to a disturbing influence
vested in the person of the young
woman's mother, Mrs. Leda Dion, who
came to Augusta in search of the pair
who, it was alleged, ran away from
Lisbon last Thursday and came to
Augusta. Finding that they were in
the city Mrs. Dion came also, swore
out warrant against Aphanasias and
had him brought into court to answer
to a serious charge, to which when

Timberland Deal
With Portland Co.

A big cumberland deal was conclud-

and Berlin, n. H., whereby the latter
company comes into possession of the
stumpage on 45,000-acre tractc loeat-
ed in northern New Hampshire and
Vermont.
The forests of Acadia, described by
Longfellow in his poem, "Evangeline,
were of no more primeval nature
than those just purchased by the Ber-
lin Mills Co. The axe of the woodsman
has never touched the virgin timber,
and it is estimated that fully 100000
feet of pulp wood is on the great tract
of land.
The Connecticut Valley Lumber Co
is under joint management of Stone
& Webster and Hornblower & Weeks
The contract that has just been sign
ed includes the continuous cutting over
a considerable term of years at a rate
that puts the transaction in the front
rank OF deals of this kind.

arraigned before Judge Lancaster he
pleaded not guilty
1t came out in the hearing that
Aphanasias, who is % years of age,
and Lena, who is is, came to Augusta
on the date mentioned above, and had
secured employment in the Edwards
mills also that they intended to get
married, inasmuch as the morning af-
ter their arrival in Augusta Aphana-
sias had applied to the city clerk for
a marriage license, which, however,
could not be granted him as he had
not been in town long enough to gain
a residence.
Lena was placed upon the stand as
a witness and was not long in con-
vincing the court and others present
that with Aphanasias and herself it
was a case of two souls with but a
single thought, two hearts that beat
as one" In spite of the evident af-
lection of the young couple for one
another the attitude of Mrs. Dion was
that of q determination to separate
them and take Lena home with her
to Lisbon, but the young girl was OBJ
durate and allowed that she had rath-
er go to Jail than go home.
As AphaRasias seemed sincere and
expressed his determination to secure
a marriage license. and in fact was
awaiting it's arrival. the court order
ed a continuance of the case until 4
o'clock next Saturday afternoon. April
IS, to await developments. And thus
it came to pass that while in this, as
in many cases, the course of true love
has not run smoothly up to the pres
ent time, it may be that the cloud I'M
der which the young couple find them
selves just at present will soon be
dispelled.
