Charles Howard, formerly of Belfast,
who has been in Texas and Louisiana for
the past few years, being engaged in the
oil business, has been at his home in
Maine for the past five weeks. He has
been in the deep woods hunting, and
brought out two deer, one eight point
buck, the head of which he is having
mounted, and his quota of partridges.
Mr. Howard was at one time mail clerk
on the Belfast Burnham run, but his
home is in Gardiner.
The High school was dismissed Mon
day morning on account of the boilers
and pipes being filled with water which
found vent in the escape valves flooding
the floors, etc. When H. L. Bucklin,
the janitor left the building Sunday
evening there was no trouble. The
same thing has happened once before and
the matter is being investigated. The
fire alarm system was out of order and
the usual no school signal could not be
given. The telephone was used as
much as possible to notify the pupils.
