Annual Outing of the G. L. S. G. of Var
The Chautauqua Circle of Yarmouth
are not great in numbers, being outnum-
bered probably by many others, but are
thoroughly alive, and believe among 9th

Circle were Mrs. William Allen, Miss
Fannie Allen and Master Clinton, of st.
Paul, Mimi; Mrs. G.. P. Thompson and
Mr.. Thompson of New Haven, Conn.
After delightful ride, the party arrived
and disposed of themselves as is the Gus
tom on such occasions, until dinner was
announced, when ample justice was
done the abundance of good things
spread before them. In the afternoon,
by the kindness of the keeper of the
light station, the party were shown the
light houses and all that pertained to
them, which was great novelty to near
ly all of the party, and was very much
enjoyed. Then the life-saving station
was visited, and the methods employed
by the heroic men who man it explained
In the meantime, some of the younger
members of the party tried their skill at

about $50 o'clock, the ''all aboard" was
sounded, the start for home was made,
arriving at the railway station about

Merry Foresters Celebrate the Fourth
Annual Field Day.

On Wednesday, the 10th inst, the
Foresters of this city, with Columbia
Circle and their friends, went to Long
Island on the occasion of the annual out
ing. About three hundred were present
and enjoyed themselves in right royal
manner. The programme arranged by
the committee was carried out in its en-
tirety, nothing being omitted that tended
to make the occasion one of pleasure and
enjoyment The base ball, football and
races were thoroughly enjoyed. The
only feature to mar the game of ball was
the Crank decisions of Col. 7. III. Dee
han, who acted as umpire of the game,
and just barely escaped being mobbed by
the timely interference of the ladies.
The concert at the Casino was the feature
of the evening, many of the numbers
being particularly pleasing. The read
ing of Miss Slattery, of Boston, and the
singing of the 'Ferryman'' by Miss Bar
ry, of Lynn, were very fine, and called
forth much favorable criticism. Miss
Josie OCOnnOr acted as accompanies Ill
very acceptable manner. At the con-
cert "Col Tom redeemed himself by
his fine rendition of the 'sHeart Bowed
Down. After the concert promenading
and the May waltz helped to pass the
few remaining hours that brought this
happy event to close. Tes
On the homeward trip the party were
greeted by serenade of horns from the
Alden cottage, and jingling of bells,
interspersed with cheers, and gorgeous
display of red fire.
MI. Mackley, the manager of the CAST
no troop, assisted the committee and
won host of friends for himself and
troop by his courteous bearing.
Just before IL o'clock the party arrived
at the city highly pleased with the days
entertainment. Members of the order
from Brooklyn, N. Y, Worcester, Low
ell and Boston, Mass, Lewiston, Bath,
and Westbrook City attended.

DENVER, Col, June 9.-The bustling
camp of Jimtown. which is separated
from the famous mining town of
Creole by a mile and half, was al
most totally destroyed by fire. whic b
started at half past o'clock yesterday
morning. The flames were started by
an explosion of coal oil with which a
family living in the Kinneavey block
were starting fire to prepare break
fast.
As there was no fire department the
flames had it all their way and in q
short time they burned through the
rows of frame buildings for a distance
of mile in the narrow gulch in which
the town is situated. Many houses
were blown up with giant powder in
an attempt to stop the fire, but this
had no effect, for the flames leaped
from one vacant space to another and
only stopped for want of material.
The loss is estimated at $1,000 900.
