PITT Parker. the crayon Wizard

All the entertainments in the HALO
we'll I.yceum course have been good.
but the last will be the best. This will
be given Thursday evening by Pitt
Parker, the famous crayon artist. His
performance is unique, unlike anything
ever given in the city. By his skill he
has won the title of rayon Wizard.
With lightning rapidity he draws not
only beautiful pictures. but also humor-
Gus sketches for he is a clever cartoon
ist One of his feats is the drawing of
a. picture upside down which always
calls forth applause. While he draws
with the greatest ease, his tongue
works in unison with his hands and
his philosophy and humor are as inter-
esting as his drawings.
Another delightful feature of his pro-
gram is his clay modelling in which he
demonstrates that the essential facial
features are the same in all races. In
fact, there is such variety that there is
not Il dull moment during the enter
tainment. Pitt Parker keeps you guess
ing all the time. If you miss him, you
will be sorry.

NO BAIL FOR
! AUGUSTA MEN IN
BRUNSWICK JAIL

Brunswick, Jan. 10-Paul Thibodeau
and Frank Dutil of Augusta and
Mrs. Ruth Ramsay of Boston, who
were arrested here Sunday afternoon
after Chief of Police Edwards had
discovered So gallons of alcohol in
the Franklin automobile in which
they we're travelling, were arraigned
in the Municipal Court this morning.
charged with illegal possession. They
waived a hearing and each was or
dered to recognize in $500 bonds for
their appearance Wednesday morn
ing. when County Attorney Clement
+. Robinson will be present to con-
duct the case for the State. Thiuo-
deau and Dutil were also required to
each furnish $500 bonds on the charge
Of illegal transportation. Thibodeau
was then arraigned charged with car
rying concealed weapon, a loaded
revolver having been found beside
him on the drivers seat. and on this
charge he. was found guilty and fined
$25 and costs, and in default OF pay
ment to serve 80 days in the Coun-
ty Jail.
The time allowed the party for OBJ
tanning bail expired at 1130 O'Clock
tonight, and, despite frantic tele-
graph and telephone messages 10
friends in Augusta, the cash was not
forthcoming, and they must pass the
night in the lookup. Moreover Thi-
bodeau was not able to raise the
s25 necessary to pay the fine for car
rying concealed weapons and faces a
sentence of 80 days as a result.
There is a possibility that the case
may be presented directly to the
grand jury, which is now sitting in
Portland, without being heard in the
municipal court. The police received
word tonight that a Freeport man is
ready to testify that Mrs. Ramsay
was driving the car at the time that
it met with a mishap at Hillside.
That report will be investigated to-
morrow and if it proves true, Mrs
Ramsay. who today was only charged
with illegal possession, will also be
charged with illegal transportation.
The county officials will do their
best to secure Jail sentences for all
three, it is understood in police cir
cles, as the trio answers the descrip-
ton of pople whom the sheriff's de-
partment has been watching for many
weeks for transporting liquor through
Cumberland county in the direction
of Augusta.
AS was the case last night, Mrs.
Ramsay is not confined in, a cell but
is in a room at the police station,
while the two men are locked behind
the bars.
