Colby Professor
At Meeting Lions Club

DR.. William ]. Wilkinson, profess
SCR OF history at Colby college, was
the speaker at the regular meeting Of
the Lions club at the Elmwood hotel
last evening. Taking as his subject,
"The Locarno Conference and the
Settlement of War Debts" the doctor
referred to an article which appeared
in the New York Times of Tuesday
stating that there was every proba-
bility of the ratification Of the pro-
posed Rhine Compact on Friday Of
this week. The speaker said that IL
this should happen the feud between
Germany and France over frontier
questions which have continued since
the time of Charlemagne in 500 would
come to an end.
Referring to the skepticism which
would naturally occur to many re-
speeding q guarantee by Germany
not to violate French territory, he
reminded his hearers that this guar
antee would be underwritten by Eng
land and italy. He also explained
that this agreement would work in
favor of Germany in tho event Of an
unprovoked attack by France.
The doctor then took up the ques-
ton Of the debts Of European coun-
tries and explained the settlement of
the English debt. DR.. Wilkinson also
dealt at some length with the French
debt to this country and the steps
which are being taken to effect its
payment.

Nadeau Found Guilty
Several Counts But
Appeals Each Case

Joseph Nadeau was found guilty on
charge Of perjury, larceny and the IL
legal possession OF intoxicating liquor
upon being arraigned in the Water
Vile municipal court yesterday morn
ing before Judge Charles w. Atchley.
On the first of the above named
charges probable cause was found and
the respondent was bound over under
bonds of $1,000 for his appearance at
the January term of the Kennebec
county superior court. On the second
charge he was sentenced to pay fine
of $50 or to serve four months in Jail,
and this was also appealed. On the
illegal possession charge the sentence
was a fine of $500 and costs, four
months in Jail and six months addi-
tional in default of payment, and an
appeal was likewise entered in this in
stance. The bonds totalled $4,000 and
they were furnished.
The charge of perjury against Ma
deau was instituted because when on
Monday the respondent appeared as
bondsman for Victor Willette on a IL
quor charge he swore that his prop
erty was not mortgaged. The property
consisted of house and a cottage and
1t later developed that they were heay-
lily mortgaged.
The larceny occurred Monday wnen
Nadeau secreted gallon jug Of alco-
hold under his coat in the judges Of
fee Immediately after Willette's trial
and made his way from the city build
ing. He was stopped in CastQnguay
Square by II. G. Marden and the jug
was broken. The Illegal transportation
charge came as a result of Nadeau's
carrying the gallon from the judges
office to Castonguay Square.
Yesterday In court the respondent
pleaded guilty to the three counts and
he entered no defense.

Americans Are
Too Serious, Word
Of Soldier Lecturer

The first of a series Of lectures to
be given this year under the auspices
Of the Colby department of public
speaking was held last evening in the
Opera House. The speaker was Cap
tain Irving O'Hay. noted soldier of
fortune. Captain O'Hay's famed wit
and humor kept the audience in good
spirits and interested them in every
way, during the entire evening. The
philosophy and religion of the man,
who has been through every con-
ceivable sort Of an experience was
seen throughout his speech.
The speakers main topic was sum-
med I'D in these few words: "The
trouble with the American people is
that they take life too seriously" His
intimate acquaintance with many of
the greatest men in American his
tory is reflected in his character, and
his varied experiences have develop
ed in him an unusually fine person
'ality.
He told Of his acquaintance with
Richard Harding Davis and he man
ner in which he became one of the
characters in Davis famous book,
SOLDIERS of Fortune" Capt. O'Hay
fought under Colonel Theodore
Roosevelt in Cuba, and he said that
he considered Roosevelt to be the
greatest American that he had ever
met. 1t is easy to imagine that the
type which Roosevelt so perfectly
represented, daring, audacious and
unafraid,' should be the one which
O'Hay would admire.
The speaker recounted his ac-
ouaintance with the famous author
sydney Cotter, better known as y.
Henry, and paid him perfect trl-
butte by calling him the biggest man
he had ever met. o. Henry at one
time spent three years in prison IN
order to cover the deed Of a friend.
Capt. O'Hay said that he had met
six presidents, five kings and count
less senators and other notables, put
that never had he met as true man
as o. Henry. His religion can De
summed UP in the few words which
he quoted from Shakespeare ITO
thine own self be true"
