NOTES FROM SHADY NOOK.

James E. Parsons and family, Mr.. and
Harold Buck, of Bucksport are at the
Jordan cottage for two weeks.
Mr.. and Mrs. c. |. Welch and daug hter
are occupying the Call cottage.
A. II. Norris and Brady Bros. have pur-
chased telephone instruments and now
have private line between the Norris
cottage at Shady Nook and Brady Bros.
store in the city. The line to Shady Nook
was established two years ago, with con-
nection at the central office, but as tele-
phone instruments can now be bought,
the change has been made.
Lightning cut up one of the curious
freaks for which it is noted on the Shady
Nook road during the storm Monday
afternoon. The lightning struck the tele
phone wire near the Wyman place, and
followed it long distance, shattering
poles along the way. The peculiar feature
is that the lightning did not strike every
pole, but skipped them singly in pairs,
and in threes. Fifteen poles interviewed
between the first and the last poles struck.
From the first pole the lightning skipped
two, striking the fourth and fifth, skipped
over one more and struck the seventh and
eighth, then took a jump over three and
struck two more, then skipped every
other one for four more poles, striking
nine out Of the seventeen poles. The
crash was terrific, and the jar broke sew
eral panes of glass in S. s. Bunker's house.

MAYOR SAID DAMN"
MR.. GERRY GETS EXCITED AND
LOSES HIS DIGNITY.
AN INTERESTING MEETING OF THE
BOARD OF BUSINESS
TRANSACTED.

There was an interesting meeting of the
board of aldermen last Thursday evening,
interesting because OF an animated dis
cussion in which Mayor Gerry expressed
himself in language more forcible than
elegant.
The trouble grew out Of discussion OF
the condition of streets, and went from
that to other matters. The mayor grew
excited in the heat OF discussion, and evil
IDENTIFY forgot that he was acting as the
presiding officer OF the august board of
aldermen. He lost his dignity entirely.
His remarks, directed mainly at Alderman
Campbell and Street Commissioner Eppes,
were sharply punctuated with swear
words. He covered lots OF ground-the
streets, the rock crusher, the police mud
die, each was treated in turn. 4 verba-
tim report OF his remarks would not look
well in print.
Mayor Gerry offered a compromise in
the police matter. He said he was tired
of seeing four policemen on the streets.
He asked the board to appoint one officer
and he would appoint another who was
suitable to them. The suggestion from
member OF the board that this was
matter for the mayor aud city marshal
to settle did not seem to mollify Mayor
Gerry's wrath.
THE MEETING.
The meeting was held Thursday evening
pursuant to adjournment from Monday
evening. Present, Mayor Gerry, Alder
men Norris, Campbell, Higgins and
Brown, City Clerk Wyman
1t was voted to appropriate 800 to aid
the Kings Daughters IN maintaining
the free reading room.
The petition OF the Postal telegraph
company for privilege To erect poles and
string wires on Church street from Oak To
Spring street, thence TO Main street and
on Main street To the Hancock town line,
presented in june and OF which notice
was published, was granted.
