MUNICIPAL COURT

On the charge of begging, two
colored men. William H. Johnson,
who said that his home was in
Pennsylvania, and Roy Vincent. who
claimed his residence in Providence,
r. l.. were arraigned before Judge
Robert A. Cony at the municipal
court Thursday morning. They
pleaded not guilty to the charge.
The complainant, Joseph A. Cote of
Northern avenue, testified that the
respondents met him Wednesday
night at the foot of Sand Hill, asked
him for some money and also made
some questionable inquiries of him.
He also said that the two men fol-
lowed him part Of the way up the
hill.
According to the testimony of
the two respondents, they had been
working on a barge coming into
Gardiner. They said that they did
not ask Cote for money. but admit
ted that they did make questionable
inquiries of him. One respondent
showed to the court a IS bill in his
possession. and the other had ST.
They said they arrived in the civ
too late to go to the show at the
Opera House, and they did not know
what the captain of the barge, now
at Gardiner, would say to them for
leaving.
At the close of the testimony. the
court dismissed the cases providing
the two respondents would take the
nrst electric car to Gardiner. which
they appeared more than willing to
do.
Another case which came before
Judge Cony yesterday was that in
which Mrs. Annie Stevens of Angus
ia was arraigned. charged with Iewd
conduct. upon complaint of Mrs.
Georgia A. Ellis. who resides on
Court street. Respondent pleaded
not guilty
Mrs. Ellis claimed that the re-
spondent had been hanging around
her 21-year-old son and she be-
lieved that they had arranged to go
together to Pennington. where he
was to go for employment.
Mrs. Stevens denied the charge

Constitutional
AMENDMENTS TO Be

proposed amendments to the State

The resolves proposing the amend
mcnts to the constitution were passed
by the Legislature in 1919 and must be
also passed upon by the voters before
they become law. The .irst of the
amendments would authorize che d.
vision of towns into voting districts
in order to make it easier for the vot-
ers who live in rural sections ID cast
their ballots. Many towns comprise
several square miles Of territory and
consequently many voters are obliged
to travel several miles to vote. This
means that they must lose at least
part of Il days work and the result is
that some decide they are too busy to

vide money to pay a bonus 20 the sol

that the Maine State fair at Lewis

ricultural exhibit from the National
department of agriculture which will
require about 500 feet of floor space
to set it up. The bureau of animal
industry will show how to improve
and increase the meat milk and
poultry supplies. and how to prevent
and treat destructive animal dis
eases. The bureau of plant indus
try viii give similar demonstrations
with grains and vegetables. Instru-
ments and appliances. maps, models,
charts and photographs to give the
exact idea of how to put into prac-
tice the most approved methods of
the department will be explained by
competent men and questions will be
answered.
The race card is we'll filed and
from the entries some rare sport is
| to be expected. Aviator Harry Jones
and his assistant will be present
with two planes and will present a
sham air battle. Among the amuse-
ment features will be the Four Read
