Two Peculiar Auto
mobile RunaWays

Two peculiar automobile run
Always have occurred this week on
the north lawn at the State House,
one resulting in considerable damage
to the machine and the other with
out damage, except to a little tree.
William H. Stilkey, an automobile
inspector. had business at the office
Monday and left his Buick car at the
north entrance. where scores of ma
chimes are parked every day. usually
in safety. This time, however, the
machine got the idea that it would
take trip on it's own account and
as the brake did not appear to be
set. it started. 1t didn't make much
difference to it where it went, so it
went backward for the Capitol street
drive entrance. but took short cut
over the lawn. Gathering Roadway,
it failed to navigate the proper
course and ran into the last big elm
tree, with startling effect, bending
in the back Of the car, breaking the
windshield and inflicting other dam
age.

corner OF the Capitol and the car

j safe and sound but having almost
uprooted a small ornamental tree in
it's path.
A man came out of the State
House and was apparently looking
for his car and astonished at it's alb
sence from where he had left it. An
employee asked if he was looking for
car and he said he was and ad-
mitted that it was a Hudson WELL"
said the employee, you'll find it

did. The driver was unknown to the
employee but the car bore the Maine

When speaking of the finest or
chestra of it's size in existence, it is
difficult for one to keep within
bounds 1t is, however, a conserva-
tive statement that the coming Nov.

ing soloists of renown will be as not
able a musical event as has ever
been known in Central Maine. 1t
will be a considerably stronger or
ganization than the one which Gre
ated such Juror here last season.
The expense to the local manage
ment Of bringing these noted artists
is very great-probably more than
any other lyceum course managers
in Maine pay for talent for their
entire seasons series. Yet by the
cooperative plan of the Augusta
Entertainment Course, a season tick

a cost of from II II to g. l. cents.

Arthur Brooke. the conductor. is
too well-known in Maine to need
introduction. He is the leading flute
player of the Boston Symphony Or

Besides being q conductor of eX-
perience and temperament. he is q
splendid program maker which is
an art in itself.
The Augusta concert will be of
popular nature, so full of variety
and contrast as to appeal to all. In
fact. it will practically he one of

IMPORTANT TO DELINQUENT
TAXPAYERS

The law requires the Tax Collector
to advertise all real estate upon
which the 1921 taxes remain unpaid,
and to issue a summons against all
persons who are delinquent in their
personal and poll taxes.
The performance Of that duty is
not pleasant one for the Collector.
The issuance Of summons, and the
advertisement Of property brings ad-
ditionaI costs upon tho delinquent.
which can be saved if payment is
made AT ONCE.
Respectfully,
