Lawrence Duffy OF Petersburg, Va,
better known as the "Rexall Kid" called
at Coughlin's store Wednesday evening
on his way around the world. In May.
1905. Duffy, then two years out from
High school, conceived the idea of see
ing bit of the globe and as a result Of
this happy thought he has travelled Is
times across the United States, four times
across the Dominion of Canada, has seen
bit of Mexico, and visited all of the
principal countries of Europe and the
Far East. There is no town of between
10000 and 10000 inhabitants but what the
Kid has thoroughly explored. This is
his second visit in Augusta, the first be-
ing about eight years ago on his way to
Canada. When asked how he travelled
Duffy grinned and replied: principally
on my nerve" and then added the infor-
nation that he had ridden in everything
there was going from an OK cart to an
aeroplane. year ago he was in San
Francisco and he recently completed a
stay of four months at the Worlds Fair
On his back the kid" toted a pack
weighing over AZ pounds. filed with let
ters and pictures which he had cleaned
in his travels Among the letters in his
possession are those from three Presi-
dents. Taft, Roosevelt and Wilson. Duffy
said that he intended to stretch his wan
behring's to period of Is years and then
settle down to some occupation. concern
ing which he seemed a triAe hazy. The
kid" is about 80 years old, looks much
younger, and is as lean and fit as regn-
lar infantryman Duffy departed from
Augusta on the 1910 train with Bruins
wick as his given destination.

Bath, Me-, Aug. 2.-(SpeciaD.-Cha
man Frank ]. Ham of the Republican
State committee has put it up straight
to Governor Curtis to allow him to ex-
anime the books in the State auditors
department and to demonstrate how
the special appropriation of 100000 as
granted by the Legislature of 1918 for
the payment OF back bills Of the State
prison was spent
Mr.. Ham made the challenge this
evening in the rooms OF the newly or
gained Sagadahoc County Republican
Club. A rousiag reception was accord
ed the leading Republican candidates
by che members of the organization
The clear cut and we'll defined speech
Of Chairman Ham was the feature of
the evening.
After calling attention of the speech
made by Governor Curtis in Bangor in
which the Chief Executive of the State
says $4,000 of this special appropria-
ton had been spent for running ex-
penses of the State prison and not back
bills, Mr.. Ham declared that five
minutes investigation at the State au-
ditor's department had proved that
$1,000 of these back bills had been paid.
In spite of the fact that Mr.. Ham had
made this announcement in the news
papers and in spite of the fact that a
letter had been sent to the Governor
telling him Of the payment of these
bills, Mr.. Curtis had continued to stick
to his original statement. In reference
to this Mr.. Ham said
When the Governor Of the State OF
Maine so far forgets himself in max
ing a defense of his own administration
as to make statements like this. we'll
what haven't got sufficient command
of the English language to express my
self If Governor Curtis is not acquaint-
ed with the finances Of the State pris-
on and he will give me and my clerk
free access to the books in the State
auditors department, I'll show him.
The Governor is wrong and he knows
he is wrong"

Offers to Show the Governor Where
He Is Wrong

Wallace H. White. Jr., candidate Tor
Congress in the second district.
Today all the towns in southern Sag
adahcc county were visited ana IN the
evening the rooms Of the new Repuo-
lican Club was crowded to capacity oy
the citizens Of Bath, when speeches. py
most of the candidates were delivered
and were we'll received.
Mr.. Milliken declared in his brleI
remarks that the most important
thing that Sagadahoc county could DO
was to re-elect Wilbur oliver sheriff.
next was to give Mr.. White MAJOR
ity Of votes in the county.
Colonel Hale declared that the
speech Of acceptance by Mr.. Hughes
was the best combination OF Ameri-
canism and Republicanism that had
been uttered in years. "Americanism
is Republicanism, said Mr.. Hale. and
this speech of acceptance makes 4
magnificent keynote for the cam
paign."
In speaking Of the necessity OF
electing a Republican Congress, to-
eether with Mr.. Hughes, Mr.. Hal7
said:
Il nave nOtnlnS puI tHt hiiluiiooe
feelings for Mr. Johnson. He is a
splendid man, personally, but is a
Democrat and anyone who wants Mr..
Hughes for President cannot vote for
Mr.. johnson and so help to tie the
hands of the Chief Executive of the
country"
The great questions at issue of this
"a mpaign are morality and character
according to Mr.. White. When the
citizens of this State have a chance
to vote for man like Mr.. Milliken,
they are going to do it." said Mr..
White. He predicted that the Repub-
lican Gubernatorial candidate will re-
Ceive the largest vote in years. He
paid a fine tribute to the personal
qualifications Of Mr.. Milliken, to his
moral and his personal character. He
also said what applies to Mr.. Milli-
ken applies to Mr.. Hale. And I urge
all the people of Sagadahoc county to
give him their loyal support as they
will give Mr.. Miliken."
Thursday will be devoted by the
candidates and Chairman Ham with
a trip through Lincoln county and or
Friday Knox county will be visited.
Many people motored and drove
from the southern part Of the town
to attend this meeting and the indi
cations in Saeadahoc county are for
a landslide in September.
