II there is anything In the old Can
diemss day weather proven bs, spring is
due pretty early this year. Sunday was
Candiemss, day, and II any ground hog
ventured out he didn't stop long enough
to look for bis shadow. The day gave a
variety of weather-snow. wind, rain,
thunder and iightning-everythin but
sunshine. There are a lot of old weather
proven bs that may be called to account
from Sundays weather. There are hun
dreds of Candiemss proverbs. the most
familiar, perhaps, being the one which
runs:
''If Candlemas day be fair and bright.
Winter win have another giaht;
But If candlemas day be clouds and rain.
Winter Is gone, not to come again,"
Then there are many proverbs about
thunder and lightning that are not SO en-
couraging. Here are few OF them:
winter thunder ia to old folks death and to
young folks plumber"
Thunder and lightning In February indicates
poor maple sugar year.
Thunder in winter or early spring. indicates
rain and very cold weather.
"winter thunder bodies summer hunger"
"For every thunder and rain in February.
there Will be cold spell In May"
But here Is another which seems to fit
in nicely with Candlemss proverbs and
which is more encouraging:
early thunder. early spring"
The man who follows up weather pro-
verbs may take his choice.

Thsguns which were hurriedly mounted
by the government at the entrance to
Frenchman's bay when a visit from the
Spanish feet was considered a possibility
have been dismounted, and one OF the
guns was landed at Fort Knox Saturday.
The guns at Schooner Head, Mt. Desert
island, will remain where they are. There
is rumor, pleasing to Hancock county,
to the effect that permanent works OF
defense will be placed at the command
ing points on krenchmsn's bay. Since
the esta blishment of the coaiing station
at East Lamoine, the need for fortifyiDg
TIE entrance to the bay is greater than
before.

hslf dozen vivid flashes OF lightning,

is reported, except the hnrning out of a
few telephone and telegraph instruments.
