R0bt. .O'Connor Is
Candidate For Judge
JUDGE MAHONEY AND GEO
PLATT WILL ALSO MAKE
RACE.
Primary on FRAY, August 18th.

Three candidates for Judge of our
Second City Court have qualified before
the State Central Committee and their
names will be placed on the ballot for
your choice at the primary election to
be held Friday, August 18th.
1t was thought for a time that only
two candidates would be in the field,
but friends of Robert O'Connor have
finally succeeded in having him place
his name before the voters.
The contestants in the coming pri-
mary are all men of prominence.
Judge Mahoney, the present incum-
bent, has held the position of Judge
of the Second City Court for about
five years, having succeeded Judge
Maher in office. Geo. Plat is an at
torney and has successfully practiced
his profession in the city for some
time. He has never held a political
office.
Robert O'Connor is also a very able
lawyer. He represented the 18th, 18th
and 18th wards of our city in the
State Senate, and it was his vote
against race-track gambling that
brought him prominently before the
people a few years ago. He became
a candidate for Attorney General at
a time when political odds were much
against him, and the vote he received
at this election was the subject of
much favorable comment. Mr.. O'Con-
nor is an able lawyer, a forceful
speaker, and the handling Of many i'm
portant legal cases fits him we'll for
the office which he seeks.
NO FRACTIONAL FIGHT.
The voters of the 18th ward will be
glad to know that the primary to be
held on Aug. 18th will not be fac
tional fight, and will be conducted
much along the line as the contest for
judge of the Supreme Court. There
will, we understand, be no division of
the Democratic party with o. d. AS
or regulars, and that voters will not
be asked to cast their vote because
this or that candidate is a regular or
an o. ID. A. Every voter should ex-
ercise his right to vote for the best
man for the place.

q storm of applause swept over the
audience and deep signs of relief
rent the air. Truly, 1t was a magi-
clans wand that did the trick. Be-
cause it is so difficult to arouse
Augusta audiences.
Before that another unforgettable
scene was the ball at the Tremonts.
lone of the most brilliant events of
the seasons" It's not untimely to
tell the story that way, because each
splendid scene is jewel in itself.
The gowns of the dancers were col
ored. a most startling effect--so life
like.
The musical effects, what could be
said about them? There was the
song for each character. And upon
the appearance and temperance
of the actors, the music would occur
and re-occur with startling realism.
And so, from the raising of the
curtain, through the story, to 1.-The
End" the audience sat, still and en-
raptured-the best testimonial. 1t

be. The silent drama speaks

Mountains on the Moon
Mightier Than Earth's

For a small body, the moon has
some astonishingly big mountains
They are bigger than any We have
on the earth.
BY the manner in which massive
rocks overhang dizzy precipices
many thousands of feet high, thew
are thought to be of much harder
material than ours.
Many of them differ also in their
color, some glowing like an opal
One of them, indeed, can be seen
shining on the dark part of the
moon, and this led to it being mis-.
taken for volcano in full blast
There is mountain range in tho
extreme south of the moon whose
peaks are said to be from 30,OM
feet to $4,000 feet high. Mount Ever.
est can boast only 29,140 feet. AL.
together, the moon has nearly 4O
peaks which are higher than Mont
Blanc. If the earth had mountains
in proportion to its much greater
size, they would be very many
miles high.
AS it is, they are mere pigmies in
comparison. The Hottest peak OF
the Himalayas is but 290O2 feet
high. In the Rockies $4,000 feet is
about the limit, and 10000 feet in
the Alps.

Seventeen Old Boy
Run Over by Automobile
And in Serious Condition

Master Rodolphe Lebranche, Jr.,
aged seven years, is in a very danger
Gus condition at the Augusta General
hospital as the result of falling under
the wheel of an automobile shortly
before noon on Thursday near the top
of Cushnoc Heights. The boy was
picked up unconscious and was i'm
mediately rushed to the Augusta Cen
eral hospital where it was found that
he had sustained a fracture of the
skull. He was given surgical treat
ment, and late last evening he was
still reported to be unconscious and
in very seriouss condition.
The automobile was driven by Pet
er F. LeVasseur, manager of the Pine
Tree restaurant in this city, who ac-
companied by his wife, were riding
down the Cushnoc Heights hill at
about 1880 a. NJ. Mr.. Levasseur
stated that he was driving slowly and
was watching out for the traffic. TIE
little boy made jump to catch hold
of the rear of an automobile truck
that was going up the hill, and fail
ing to catch hold, fell back and under
one of the wheels of Mr.. Lavasseur's
Overland roadster. The wheel of the
car passed over the boys head and
neck. 1t was all done in a moments
time and nothing Mr.. Lavasseur could
do, could prevent it. A doctor was
summoned at once and the bow was
given treatment before being taken
to the hospital

Production VS.. Resources

Present output and future reserves
must not be confused in the study of
mineral statistics. In the main. pres
cnt national rank is indicated by pro-
duction, but the fact that mineral re-
sources are not replacable is always
qualifying factor. This distinction be-
tween present and future is especially
important when such topic as nation
al domination in oil is under discus
sion; that North America contributes S.
per cent of the worlds supply Of petro-
leum is no proof that Persia AMI Meso-
potamia may not contain half as much
Oil as the United States and Mexico,
even though those countries of the
Near East are now yielding only per
cent of the worlds output. Indeed, in
this matter of mineral wealth. the
nation that is a spendthrift today is 50
much the less likely to possess indie
pendent means" tomorrow. - World

Does a Beard Make
You Live Longer?

Grow beard, lengthen life, and
become stronger physically and
mentally, is the advice of a famous
American doctor.
According to that authority, many
men would allow the beard to grow
If the benefits to be derived were
better known.
For example, the beard protects
the face and throat against undue
heat and cold, so that one is less at
the mercy of climatic influences. 1t
prevents toothaches, coughs, cold
and Inflammation.
Another advantage claimed is that
a beard enables one to Withstand
physical pain and hardship better
than otherwise.
AS an aid to longevity, the mus
tache and beard play an important
part. The hair acts as natural
respirator and provides warmth and
protection to the delicate structures
beneath. Protect these organisms in
the manner nature intended and dis
ease may be STAYED off indefinitely.
