Street Commissioner Weymouth new has
the traction engine and q crew at work on
Church street from Main street to the foot Of
the square. This section is 30 shaded by
trees that the street has been muddy a great
| part of the time, and it is proposed to so grade
it that, with a coating of crushed rock and
gravel, it will be made dry-a much needed
improvement.

new patrol of Boy Scouts, the fourth in this
city-The Wolf-with Thomas Leaman Of East

STREET CARNIVAL. The matter of q
street carnival is considered and will come
before the next meeting of the Belfast Board
of Trade for discussion. The idea would be to
hire one of the regular carnival companies to
come here for the week of July 4th, giving
shows on the street for the entire week. This
has been successfully done in Rockland, Ban
gor, Portland Waterville, and other Maine
cities and has been found to be the means of
bringing many people and good deal of BUSH
ness, The tents would probably be pitched
near the business section of the city, thereby
giving the merchants the benefit OF the crowds
and with warship in the harbor over the
Fourth, as has been promised by Secretary
d. niels, there should be many attractions to
keep citizens at home and bring others here.
