THE AURORA EoREALIS PAINTS THE HOUSES
RED
About seven clock Saturday evening q,
red glare appeared in the northwestern
heavens, and caused people in the streets to
stop and gaze skyward expecting to hear an
alarm of fire. AS none came. however, it
was concluded that the fire was some dis
tance from the city. Indeed. some assert
ed positively that the fire was in Brooks
Others who suggested that it was the aurora
horealiS Were laughed to Scorn. Finally it
was concluded that if it was a fire it was a
long way off, and il it was the northern
lights there was no use getting out the Hook
and Ladder or Hose Company
Those Who watched the aurora borealis.
for such it was, from the beginning of its ap-
pearance to its elimination, witnessed a re-
markahly vivid, beautiful and unusual sight
and it is probable that a very large proper
tion of the citizens of Belfast did take in the
entertainment preferred without charge 1t
was visible for about an hour, and it is
doubtful if any such sight was ever before
witnessed in this section
After the first red glare broad band of
white was outlined against it, and it extend
ed almost to the zenith In a few minutes
the red glare began to spread rapidly and
after a short time of increase it began to dli-
minish in intensity. From the northeast it
extended around to the north, where il pal
ed to a tinge of red.
Narrow beams Of light frequently flashed
upward and they We're in striking contrast
to the red background Finally after spread
ing over d large extent of sky, there was Il
concentration to the original starting pu int
and in about an hour after its first appear
ance the colored rays had disappeared.
Aa is usual the aurora borealis was accom-
panied by considerable disturb ance of the
electric telegraph. The earth's magnetism
and electrical condition is always much dis
turbed during these displays.
Reports from other States show that the
sight was just as striking there and it at
tracted tue widest attention.

Accident on the Belfast Branch.

One of the worse accidents in the history
of the Belfast railroad occurred on FRIDAY
