Crowded House Greets Opening
Attraction of Augusta Ed
ucatioral Course

The sixth season of the Augusta Ed
ueational Course given under the aus
pices of the Penney Memorial church
opened Thursday evening at City hall
with Walter Eccles and the College
Girls as the attraction With every
seat sold it was a capacity house that
enjoyed the fine entertainment given
by the six artists of Lyceum fame and
popularity.
The renown which preceded Mr.. Ec-
Giles and the company to Augusta was
admirably lived up to, 1t is difficult to
recall when any similar production so
completely won an Augusta audience.
The program was one requiring YER
satility to an uncommon degree, which
was capably met by the remarkable
talents which were shown by each of
the members. To make distinction be-
tween the individuals seems impossible
but undoubtedly it is correct to say
that it was Walter Eccles, who was
charmingly supported by the College
Girls.
Mr.. Eccles is an artist of rare ability
whose catching wit and buoyant hui
NOR was ever a delight to the audi
ence. Likewise each of the young la
dies displayed a competency for in
dividual starring which it seemed al
most a pity to have sacrificed for their
cooperative team work.
1t was the perfectly blending team
work of the members of the company
that was by all means the feature of
the entertainment. In the ensembles,
under the direction of competent
- i
harmony of exceptional merit that was
attained. What also won special praise
and enthusiasm were the pleasing cos
tune numbers of the company includ-
ing those of the hunting song, of the
golf girls and in the Scotch charac-
terizations.
The program included varying as
sortment of numbers each deserving

Bangor, Me, Nov. 5.-Receipts of

which were shot at Franklin They
were fair sized animals, about four
years old. each weighing about 500

Reports of killing many deer by
wild cats are being received from the
woods. 1t is stated that in parts of
the game territory it is not uncommon
to find deep in some secluded swamp
or swale the skeleton of a big deer
which has been picked clean by wild
animals.
A Portland newspaper says that
something should be done in this mat
ter. but il appears that the State Fish
and Game Commission is already do
ing all in its power to rid the State
of the bob-cat. loupcervier and Can

bounty of 81 shall be paid for every
such animal killed in any town. The
hpnter must exhibit the entire skin
thereof, to the town treasurer of any
town, who then forwards the tail to
the State commissioners of inland
fisheries and game at Augusta.
Two hunters at the Union station
Wednesday noon were reminded of their
experiences in the woods on seeing the
carcasses of two moose on an express
truck One man, while hunting noticed
what he thought was a man in the woods
and, strangely enough. the man wore a
white sweater, apparently. The hunter
thought to himself, HE must be a novice
wearing white sweater in that vicinity.
Guess I'll be still here a minute for
fear he might shoot. The hunter re-
manned quiet for a while, then shouted
Hello" No answer Again, Hello. .
and then the form started off. The hunt
er began to be suspicious and started to
find out what it was. Just as he got out
of the thick woods he saw that the man
in the white sweater was really an al
bino buck, almost perfectly white from
tip to tail. When the hunter returned to
camp that night it was with bitterness in
his heart, and he denounced the men in
the camp for not telling him about the
white buck, whose whereabouts were

HERSEY ASSURED
SENATE LEADERSHIP

Hon. Ira G.. Hersey of Houlton, who
was reelected to the State Senate in
September, will go into the Republic
can caucus as candidate for President
of the Senate without opposition. This
fact became known Thursday when
it was announced that Mr.. Hersey
had received a notice from Senator
Walker of Skowhegan, pledsing him
the Somerset senator's support
The contest for President Of the
Senate has been interesting. 1t was
rumored nearly year ago that York
county would ask for this honor aid
would present the name of Hon. Aaron
b. Cole of Eliot. Later it was said
that Senator Cole didn't care for the
honor, but that Senator George G..
Emery of Sanford would be put for
ward This rumor gained considerable
credence and il was generally under
stood that Mr. Emery would be heard
from.
Matters stood at this point until
Senator Hersey let it be known that
he wanted to succeed President Carl
E. Milliken A little later Senator For
rest Colby of Skowhegan and Senator
w. L. Walker of Bingham decided to
get into the contest. BY chance each
wrote the other the same day asking
for support. Since both come from the
same county, only one could make the
fight. Senator Colby withdrew. Sena-
tor Emery made it plain in short or
der that he intends to vote for Sena-
tor Hersey. That left Mr.. Hersey and
Mr.. Walker in the field. Now Mr.
NUa Her ba withdrawn and ir is n
foregone conclusion that Mr. Hersey
will be the unanimous choice of the
caucus.
