Yacht Quero Run Down,

A serious accident occurred on board the
sloop yacht Quero in Belfast harbor last
Thursday. She was under way for Dark
HarbOr when an oil stove in the galley was
upset and ignited. Arthur Beach was be-
low and in fighting the fire had both arms
badly burned from the finger tips to the
elbows, and some burns about his face
Capt. E. E. Dodge came to his rescue as
soon as he was able to bring the boat
into position where he could leave the
wheel By their united efforts the fire
was extinguished, but not before the cabin
and galley were badly burned. Capt.
Dodge received some cuts on his hands, but
was not badly burned. Mr.. Beach showed
remarkable courage in staying by the fire
as long as he did and his wounds will pre-
vent him from attending to his duties on
board for several weeks. Temporary re-
pairs were made here and the yacht sailed
Monday for New London, Conn. Roland
Patterson shipped in her for the run.
Ihe journal received a telephone message
from Boston from Edward johnson yeSter-
day morning stating that the QuerO was
run down near Monhegan Tuesday night
and was total loss Crew saved. The
crew consisted of three men, Capt. E. E.
Dodge of Islesboro, Roland Patterson OF
Belfast, and third man whose name we dc
not know.

The New Steamer City of Rocklani.

The new steamer City of Rockland ar
rived in Belfast yesterday forenoon on her
initial trip. The steamer was gaily decorat-
ed with flags and the buildings on the wharf
were decorated with bunting and japanese
lanterns. The steamers whistle sounded at
intervals as she came up the harbor,
and she was greeted with salute from the
steam whistles in the city, She had
on board the officers of the Boston IL
Bangor S. S. Co., rs guests from Boston,
30 from Rockland, and the Belfast
Band. The Band played number of
selections while the boat was in the harbor
The ROckland is in command of Capt Otis
Ingraham, but the other officers are not yet
fully assigned. Inside, the City OF Rock
land is nearly a counterpart of the City of
Bangor, except that her increased length
permits few more staterOOmS. Outside
there are number of changes The Rock
land has but one SmOke-stack, her paddle
boxes are sheathed in, giving her more the
appearance of a propeller boat, the house
which encloses her walking beam is more
closed in, and there are a few lesser changes.
The steamer remained at the wharf here
about an hour, and was visited by such of
our people as wished to 60 on board. Engi-
neer HathOrn reports that the trip was made
on the PenobscOt's regular running time,
without heating a bearing, and that the
boat is capable of considerable more speed
that the City of Bangor. She will begin
her regular trips Saturday night.

BASE BALL.

The first regular game of the Belfast
locals was played on the Congress street
grounds Saturday, June 18th, against the
Watervilles, with victory for the visitors
by score of 16 to g. This was the first
game the Belfast nine has played together,
and some of the men were evidently not in
their proper places, judging from the play
ing. The features of the game included
an unassisted double by Rawson, who
caught out Remission on fly and put out
GOOde at I'd; a double in which Rawson
threw to Allen who put out johnson at I'd
and Allen threw to McCorkrill, who put out
Colcord at 1st; some fine fly catching by
Belfast's outfelders and a three Dagger by
Vail. E. Allen got home run by knocking
the ball SO that it rolled outside under the
right field fence The score:

Secret Societies.

Silver Cross Lodge, Knights of Pythias,
Is having an unusually profitable season
and has work on one or more candidates at
every meeting.
The steamer Catherine took an excursion
from Vinalhaven, Rockland and Belfast
Monday to attend the Odd Fellows field
| day In Bangor. Twelve chevaliers and
several ladies joined the party in Belfast
Enterprise Lodge, A. 0. U. w., will hold
special meeting this, Thursday, evening to
see if the lodge will vote to petition the
Supreme Master Workman to set apart the
State OF Maine as separate Grand Lodge
Jurisdiction. The lodges in Maine are now
connected with the Grand Lodge of Massa-
| chusetts, which included all New England
until last week, when Rhode Island voted
to become separate Jurisdiction Maine
has 81 lodges and 1900 members.
KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAs MEMORIAL SUM-
DAY. Silver Cross Lodge, Knights of Py-
thlas, observed the annual memorial service
OF the order by attending the UNIVERSAL st
| church in body Sunday, June 10th. The
services opened with the usual devotional
exercises, including the 145th Psalm, hymn,
Spirit divine, attend our prayer p Script
ure reading, l. Cor. - and 13; prayer, and
singing by the quartette, Tarry with me. ;"
The sermon by the pastor, Rev. A. A. Smith,
was from the text in I. SAM, 49,: l. "The
soul of Jonathan was knit to the soul of
David" He found a counterpart to the
story of David and Jonathan in that of Da-
mon and Pythias. They are no mere myths,
but are both well authenticated. They have
been made the subject of song, novel and
drama. We seek for the underlying idea of
those stories, that the way of love is the
way to regenerate the world. Such brother
hoods as are founded on the principles en-
bodied in the story of Damon and Pythias
are eminently good, and tend toward univer-
sal brotherhood The Church, Like the human
soul, is saved by selfforgetfulness, and by
its interest in the welfare of the human
race. The true knight is the true man.
The VOW of the modern knight, like that of
the knight of old, means much, but how
many who took it upon themselves realize
its full import? Many join the church or
the fraternities for selfish or other unworthy
motives. Individual relationship with God
is the foundation of life. Webster once
said that the most important thought that
he ever entertained was his own personal
relation to God. The story of Damon and
Pythias illustrates human love that of Da-
| vid and Jonathan, divine love. Gods love
for man ought to be the most potent force in
regulating the lives of men. Mr.. Smith
| referred feelingly to the members of Silver
Cross Lodge who have passed away during
the year, and closed with a touching tribute
| to their memories. Miss Susan Dinsmore
sang, by request, NEARER, My God, to
Thee" the choir sang the hymn, "He
whom Jesus loved;" Emery F. White sang
"Comfort ye my people," and the service
closed with the benediction

OBITUARY.

Guy Henry, youngest son Of the late Hen
ry f. and Eta (Sheldon) Patterson Of this
city. passed from this life June 9th at the
age of years, 9 months and p days. He
had been i'll six weeks with diphtheria and
was considered convalescent when paraly-
sis took place and he passed away almost
Immediately. The blow fell with crushing
weight on the family; the aged grand pa
rent, the widowed mother and the two sis
tiers and brother, Ida and Isa Of this city
and Charles E. of WinterpOrt. Much real
sorrow and sympathy is expressed by the
community at large, for many will miss the
genial face, the CHEEKY voice and smile, for
little Guy was favOrite with his school
mates and exceptionally popular with all
who knew him. 1t may be truly said
"None knew him but to love him, none
named him but to praise" At his school a
loving tribute was paid to his memory. His
desk was decorated with beautiful flowers
and the flag was placed at half mast On
account OF the cOntagiOn no services were
held, and he was laid at rest by the side of
his father in the family lot in Waldo.
Ihere is Reaper whose name is death
And with his sickle keen
He reaps the bearded grain at a breath
And the flowers that grew between.
"My Lord has need of these flowerets gay,''
The Reaper said and smiled;
"Dear tokens of the earth are they,
When he was once a child
''Ihey shall all bloom in fields of light,
Transplanted by my care.
And saints upon their garments white,
These sacred blossoms wear.'
And the mother gave in tears and pain
The flowers she most did love-
She knew she would find them all again,
In the fields of light above.
Oh not in cruelty, not in wrath.
The Reaper came that day;
Twas an angel visited the green earth
And took the flowers away.

A Greater and More Perfect

We have made Wednesday, omeftters' Day

more proud of its because convinced
that it was we'll merited.
We are strenuousy working for greater and
more perfect furniture store-ior broader and
comprehensive Homefttng establishment than New
York yet boast of-one that will afford to people
of moderate opportunity to select under roof
and at popular prices everything that the tasty and
comfortable home requires. We have not yet reached
our ideal standard-perhaps shall never reach it.;
but if in the process of evolution continue to offer
you better and better value-greater and greater
variety, and, what is equally important perfect
serbice than any other store has yet accomplished
we quite of your approval-which, after all,
is our greatest reward.
