Raymond A Carroll, of the Indiana
State Normal School, of Pennsylvania
made a new worlds record of los
for SO yards at the Middle Atlantic
A. A. A. U. indoor championships in
Pittsburg Saturday night. Carroll was
the 100-y yard Junior A. A. U. champion

former Mercersburg sprinter, matric-

Captain George Brown of the Yale
track has undoubtedly been handi-

STATE HOUSE.
One Day a Week for Ice
Fishing in toyejoy Pond.
Governor and Council TO Consider
Lighting Contract extMGetlng.
Apple Packing Competitions to
Bring a Prize to Winner.
STATE HOUSE CALENDAR.
Regular Meetings of Governor and
Council Will Be Hold at 10 A. M.
Thursday, Feb. and 20.

The State Commission Of Inland
Fisheries and Game announced Mon
day morning it's decision upon the mat
ter of closing Lovejoy pond in Albion
to ice fishing. Regulations will soon
be adopted by which the pond will be
closed to ice fishing except on Thurs
day of each week. The commission
also decided that the number of fish
caught in either winter or summer in
Lovejoy pond should be limited to ten
for each person.
At recent session OF the Legisla-
ture this pond together with several
other bodies of water in that vicinity
were opened to ice fishing after having
been closed for five years. Last Thurs
day before the commission a hearing
was held upon the matter, representa-
tives of both sides being present.
Residents of Albion and vicinity in
their petition for the closing OF the
pond claimed that they do not enjoy
the same privileges as the Waterville
fishermen; that they have only one
pond in their vicinity and that the fish
should be protected for summer fish
ing, while the residents of Waterville
have several ponds to go to. The petit
tioners at the hearing were represent
ed by A o. Hall and George Gillison
of Wateryille

Scheduled for Next Meetina.

At the next meeting of the Governor
and Council to be held Thursday the
matter of a new contract for lighting
the State House will undoubtedly be
considered. The executive body in
tended to take up this matter at its
last meeting but was SO busy with
pardon cases and other matters that
it was obliged to defer action.
The general sentiment of the Gov
ernor and Council is that the same
rate should be secured for the State
House as has been secured for the
Augusta State Hospital. viz, cents a
kilowatt for power and cents kilo-
watt for lighting.
After this, it is very probable that
the prices of light and power in other
State buildings may be considered,
such as the Hallowell Industrial School
for Girls, where the State is paying 8
cents per kilewatt for lighting d5 per
cent off which makes 1t about 71s cents
net). The State is a large customer.
and the general feeling is that 1t
should at least get as good price as
apv0na else

week is Kilbane. the featherweight.

criticised fer putting boxers of little
experience against him. Kilbane has
two easy bouts for this week.

doubtless, it will be up to standard.
Battling Levinsky, who has been q
busy boxer, continues to keep on the
go. He meets Tom Mcmahon in New
York next Friday night.
New York and Brooklyn have a
large number of bouts scheduled for
the week. Many of the boxers are
not very prominent, but should put up
the kind of boxing that satisfies most
of the fans.
Bud Anderson. the Oregon light
weight, is not disheartened by his re-
cent defeat by Leach Cross. He will
tackle Barrieau at Vancouver Tuesday
night. The sports OF Canada's North
west regard the latter as a great
boxer
Pal Brown, the Minnesota light

Partisan Sage Makes Thin Lifeless
Hair Soft and Abundant.

Partisan Sage Makes Thin Lifeless
Hair Soft and Abundant.
Beautiful hair. fluffy. lustrous, abund-
ant and free from dandruff. is one of
woman's greatest charms-it's her main
delight--yet so many of the fair sex who
would be most attractive but for their
streaked, thin and lifeless hair, go on
thinking there is no remedy. Quickly
put aside such thoughts. Beautiful hair
is largely a matter of a little care and
attention. Partisan Sage rubbed into the
scalp and applied to the hair with a
sponge or cloth will work wonders. 20
1t daily for a week, then occasionally
and you will be surprised and delighted
with the result-not only will the hair be-
come abundant, soft, fluffy, radiant with
life, but really doubly beautiful.
Partisan Sage supplies hair and scalp
needs. 1t surely removes dandruff with
one application and cleanses the hair Of
all dirt and excessive OIL. 1t is not
sticky or greasy, is delicately perfumed,
and contains nothing to injure the hair
or scalp All drug and toilet counters sell
it In fifty-cent bottles. Look for the
trade mark-"The Girl with the Auburn
Hair"
Delighted users pronounce Partisan
Sage the best, most pleasant and invig-
Grating hair tonic made. Try at least one
bottle. Bowditch-Webster Co, will re-
fund the money If you are not satisfied.
