The rain storm of Tuesday and
Wednesday was the only one to occur
during May and June. There were sew
eral showers including the disastrous one
of May 9th. Vegetation has suffered
for the lack of rain and the streets, par
ticularly the avenues leading out of the
city, have been very dusty. 1t is said
the hay crop will be small and the berry
season a short one, especially for straw
berries.
"Black Beauty" story that has been
read by people in all countries for over
forty years, was made into a spectacular
motion picture at the cost of over half
million dollars. 1t required one of the
largest casts ever assembled for film
and the biggest technical staff to be en-
ployed by any company. An inside story
dealing with humans has been interview
en- in Anna Sewel's narrative in such
manner that it in no way conflicts with
the original story. This unusual film
will be shown at the Colonial Theatre,
Wednesday, July goth.
Miss Laura Chase of Holyoke, Mass i,
for four years teacher of English in the

pan, was the guest Tuesday night of the
Ladies' Foreign Missionary Society of
the Belfast Methodist church. She will
leave August 1st for her duties in Japan
and goes again under the auspices of
that society. The school in which Miss
Chase teaches has 1900 boys and 600
girls. Miss Chase is fond of the Japa-
nese and speaks in the highest terms of
them. With only so Japanese words at
her command she travelled over that
country and found it safer for an Ameri-
can teacher than in her own land. Her
pupils are apt and anxious to learn. A
meeting with twenty present was held at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank L.
Written. Ice cream and cake were
served after the most entertaining talk
by Miss Chase.
SPARKS CIRCUS A FINE ONE. The
remark was frequently heard Saturday
that the crowd in town to attend the
circus was the largest since the Masonic
Temple dedication. That was in 1878.
While the public streets were literally
crowded the people were very quiet and
orderly. The show was fine one from
start to finish and was also remarkably
clean in sentiment and in personnel. The
advance and press agents were efficient
and genial, in fact, pleasant callers. The
street parade was fine index of the show
program. The menagerie with its trained
animals and several young stock, includ-
ing baby camel and bears, were most
inter .sting. The performers were of the
best and many of their acts were new as
we'll as novel. The trained horses, dogs,
elephants, and seals were fine and the
elephants the best ever seen in Belfast.
Everybody speaks in the highest terms
of the show.

Lenoxe Heimer of Sherborn, formerly of
Brookline, Mass, arrived Saturday as
