THE FOURTH IN BELFAST 1t was the quiet
est Fourth" within the memory of the oldest
inhabitant, Fewer cannon crackers and other
noise producers were heard "the night before,
| there was no ah-nlSnt ringing OF tne cnurcH
bells, which rang only intermittingly between
and a. M, and but for the occasional fus-
aoe of fre-crackers and footing of horns, the
day itself might have passed for Sunday, as
the shops we're closed and streets deserted.
The change was welcomed by the stay-at-
homes and the weather was perfect for the
many excursions out of town by rail, steamer,
auto, blackboard or car iage. The Boston boat
landed record-breaking number of passengers
on her arrival here, and between 60 and 10
went on board for the various up-river land
ings, the majority, however, for Bangor, where
two ball games between the Belfast and Ban
gor teams were the attraction. The steamer
Anna Belle made an excursion to Bangor,
carrying goodly number of base ball enthu-
siasts, and the steamer Golden Rod had ten or
twelve from Belfast who spent the day in Cas-
tine. No accidents have been reported.
