Sunday was a series of sunshine and
- lie
Boreas lost his temper about O'Clock
and blazed away like mad lion. All the
light snow that fell earlier in the day and
even Saturday was whrled in the air and
piled later in hard drifts. The mercury
did not fall until later in the day, but
Monday morning it registered below zero.
The weather man was found fault with,
but he long ago gave up trying to please
cranks who want zero weather In summer,
heat in winter, sunshine when 1T rains or
SHOWS. Maine weather is as good on the
whole as any other State produces and
| there is plenty of room elsewhere for
those who don't like it. The advertised
cold wave arrived Monday and was well
developed in a cold, clear air. Tuesday
was colder and clearer n dark vapor
covered the bay in the morning present
ing an unusually strange spectacle. Re
ports varied from IA to 80 below zero, &C
cording to location. On the sunny side
of Main street it was l9 below at a. IN.
Pedestrians were running on high high
Wednesday the cold snap was still with

prees higher than Tuesday

The Relfast office of the Peiepscot
Pulp & Paper Company will be closed in
May and the business taken to Bath for
the summer. Capt c. B. SWEET and his
family will move to Bath Mr.. Elton H.
Lewis, who has been connected with the
office here for several years, will move
with his family to their home in Booth
bay in A ril He now plans to conduct
his summer hotel, the Sawyer Island
House, for the season. Capt. SWEET and
family will return in the fall, when the
4, 600 cords of pulp wood stored here at
present will be moved to the mills. This
immense pile of wood will remain where
it is during the summer. II the compa-
ny's business here another fall needs
more help Mr.. Lewis will also return
with his family. All the pulp wood fro -
| the Provinces and from Eastern Maine
will be taken directly tC Bath for the
summer and the work of landing it has
been contracted for by Bath stevedores.
This is serious loss to Belfast even for
the summer and it is sincerely hoped that
the company may decide to continue the
Belfast plant after the experiment OF
landing the wood at Bath has been tried.
Walter Mitchell of the Belfast office
force will 60 to Bath for the summer.
