BELFAST

Belfast, Me, Dec. 14.-(SpeciaD =
Nearly 500 people attended the Union
service held last night in the Belfast
Opera House under the auspices of
the united clergymen of the city. 1t
was the first meeting of the sort 10
be held and was in way experiment
al. 1t was most successful and il is
very likely that more of the kind will
follow. 1t is the desire of the clergy
men of Belfast to bring the church
into the life of the city to a greater
degree and to reach those who do not
go to church. By holding the so-called
popular services 1t is hoped to reach
this end Last night the clergy were
assisted by quartet from the Bel
fast Band and by a large union
chorus under the direction of E. ).
Pitcher. The program: Hymn: invo-
cation, Rev. Walter F. Sturtevant:
prayer. Rev. Arthur A. Blair; Scrip
ture. Rev. B. D. Boivin Of Middleboro,
a visiting Unitarian clergyman; an
nouncements, Rev. Haraden s. Pearl:
hymn; sermon, "A Cod Of Fire" Rev.
Horace B. Sellers. Mr. Sellers who
came here a short time ago as pastor
of the Methodist church was heard for
the first time by many Of the audience
and his splendid sermon will long be
remembered. He spoke without notes
and in closing made q strong appeal
to the business men and others of the
city who have the civic good at heart
to aid the churches all in their power
for the uplift of Belfast, for cleaner,
happier and more wholesome commu-
nifty.
There has been a good deal in the
daily papers in regard to the Cour-
ier-GaZette's story about seeing an
airship or what was thought to be
one in the vicinity Of Union a few
weeks ago. While the matter has been
treated with derision there is no
doubt that there are people who have
been seem things and over in Tur-
ner. so says the &C bright search
light has been seen in the sky, APP
parentiy coming out OF the clouds One
man goes SO far as to say that he
watched 1t and saw the outline of
what looked to be an airship. On
Thursday night Of last week several
Belfast people. returning from the
ball about midnight, remarked on the
strange appearance OF light in the
sky. about midway between Northport
and Islesboro. 1t looked exactly like a
searchlight. small at the part where
1t came out of the cloud and larger in
proportion as it shone over the water.
1t was high UP in the clouds, which
were very black. 1t did not have the
least appearance of moonlight. nor
could 1t have been Northern lights, in
that position. 1t disappeared after a
few minutes.
