Work was begun. Monday, by a
Maine Central crew, on the fence that
will be built across the gully at the
south side of Court street. The fence
will be five feet in height and will run
short distance up Court street from
the top of the upper flight of steps
leading 10 the level of the railroad
tracks, and from there down into the
gully and up over the hill on the south
side. BY this means great deal of
the upper section of the gully will be
shut out from the view of people on
the platform in front of the new pas
senger station, and on the trains.

SAINT SWITHlN'S DAY.
Rain, Today, Would Be Disastrous, Ac
c6rding to Ancient Legend.

Today, July Is, is Saint SWithlns
day. and if there is any virtue in th'
old legend of 921 years ago il there
should be n rainfall, today. II will be
followed by rain every day for the
next 40 days. Monday afternoons
weather prediction said: Fair. VIII
moderate westerly winds, hecomlns
variable" which ought be a fairly goo'
guarantee Of fair weather, today, bn
the weather bureau is not infailihle
and the superstitioas will, no doubt
carefully watch the heavens, TO-DAY
because of the fact that 1t is san
Swithin's, to see If the prophecy OF
the ancient legend holds true. The
text of the legend is as follows:
st. Swithin was the chaplain to the
English King Egbert, who lived IN
the year s52. He was a prominent
ehurchman and exercised great inilu-
ence at the court. Nfshis own request
ne was buried in the churchyard al
Winchester. where the rain might fail
from the caves upon his grave and mt
passersby tread upon it.
hundred years later he was can
onized- and his body. taken out of its
grave to De feDHried iIislue eiie elioi -
This act should have taken place on
The fifteenth daypksJlly. but Wher
the appointed hour stTised the heav-
ems opened and a great rain cant
down. For forty days it rained ana
such time was the burial within the
church delayed"
Such gave rise to the popular su-
perstition, concerning rain on st.
Swithin's day and it still has current
belief
