Ocean Point, Me-, Aug. 2.--(SpeciaD.-
July was rather quiet month here
but August bids fair to be one of the
busiest months that this resort has
seen for number of years. The peo-
pie are Still! coming and the hotels are
well filing up. Many of the younger
people have planned entertainments
for August and they hope that the
weather will be such that the entertain
ments may be well attended to repay
them for the labor and expense in get
ting these entertainments up.
Tennis and ball games are being
played regularly, and it IS expected
that the ball players will cross bats
with teams from the different Islands

A fair has been talked of to be held
III the Casino the same as last year and
it will probably meet with encourage
mcnt from the Point people. as it was
great success last year and a nice
sum was added to the Casino fund.
A successful dance was held at the
Casino last Friday evening, music be-
ing furnished by the Ladies orchestra
Of Boston consisting of four pieces The
dances will be held every Friday ever
ing and the same orchestra will be in
attendance.
A merry party gathered at the Mil

Joyable one and the party broke up at
late hour.
A large party from the Point spent
Wednesday forenoon at F!slerman's
Island. Having taken dinner the party
returned home in a naphtha launch
late in the afternoon. \ good TINE was
reported.
The Point has been visited with two
heavy thunder showers within a few
days of each other the last one coming
last Monday evening. 1t started early
in the evening, lasting until midnight.
The wind blew a gale and the lightning
was terrible. as it seemed one steady
fash until the shower passed over. The
summer visitors have expressed their
wish that they do not have to expert

journing here.

CT rain A cat eating grass indicates
rain in Maine, Michigan and Massa-
chusetts That putting coal black
cat under a bushel measure while it ~
raining will make the rain stop is the
belief entertained in Maryland, West
Virginia and Kentucky. Throughout
the entire West it is thought that
playing with the cat, will make the
child stupid.
These same ideas as to the weather
are entertained by circus people, only
their barometer is the tiger. In truth
the tiger is but a cat of larger meas
urements and ferocity. Circus folk
will invariably wait for the tiger to
make an observation on weather pros
poets before venturing an opinion
themselves.
In this case it might be said that
Herbert, one of the prettiest marked
tigers that ever graced geological
display, is regarded as the most au-
thentic forecaster in the Cole Broth
ers World Toured Shows This ami
NAL has the distinction OF regularly
forecasting the general weather con-
ditions for 4S hours in Chicago. ILL.,.
last season. The city weather prophet
visited the show, learned the facts, and
watched the tigers movements for two
hours. After that time he announced
his forecast, and gave due credit to
his dumb assistant. Strange to relate,
the conditions prevailing were actually
the same as had been predicted. This
report travelled with the show, and
the result was that several local
weather students studied the situation
when the circus visited their town.
Cole Brothers circus comes here on
Wednesday. Aug. 5, and if there are
any local skeptics, they are invited to
visit the menagerie and learn for
themselves The tiger will appear in
the parade and by careful inspection
the weather may be forecasted here
just the same as a paid government
employee did in Chicago.

When an incident like the following oc-

carry weight with our readers. So AQN
strange occurrences go the rounds of the

come skeptical. On one subject skcpti-

to the actual experience Of our citizens.
and their public utterances regarding
them. The doubter must doubt no more
in the face of such evidence as tnis. The
public statement of reputable citizen
living right at home. one whom Won can
see every day, leaves no ground for the
skeptic to stand on.

FELINE FoREcASTER.
Tiger With Cole Bros. Circus Tells
What Weather Is Going to Be.

There is no locality in the world
that is not above placing some super
stition to the poor old cat. Even this
very vicinity has it's tale and glance
at the appended list will show that
we are not the only ones, for the prac-
tice exists all over the United States.
These superstitions go back as far
as the ancient Egyptians. There even
in the remotest days, the cat was an
object of generation. Temples were
erected to it, and sacrifices were made
in it's honor. When the household cat
died, everyone was required to shave
his or her eyebrows. For thousands
of years this idolization continued.
Even at the time of the invasion of
the Persian King, Cambyses, it is re-
lated that the victory was won by him
because his soldiers drove cats in front
of them. The Egyptians, fearful OF
harming. the animals, practically ran
away.
In modern times, while there is
nothing akin to worship, there are
some very curious ideas as to the in
fiuence the cat casts upon affairs Of
human life.
In Massachusetts II ''DrlnRS SOOu
luck" to throw a dead black cat over
the left shoulder and turn around
twice.
In Alabama the spirit of an old maid
after death takes possession of some
old black cat. In the same state to
cut off the tail of a black cat and bury
it under the doorstep is to keep sick
ness out of the family.
In Iowa is found the superstition
that if a farmer kills cat, some of the
stock will die.
IN, Canada, Michigan. and eastern
Kansas a cat of three colOrs brings
good luck, and in the last named place
it is regarded as a protection against
fire. A "smutty' nosed cat brings
luck to it's owner.
up in Maine it means poverty to
own a white cat.
In Ohio if neighbor's. cat comes
listening around your house, it means
news carrying, and you may know
that your neighbors are gossiping
about you.
In Labrador it means visitors if your
cat scratches the door post.
The cat also runs a weather
bureau" II cat "bawls" it is sign
