Fire

Fire Is a dervish. / saw him dance
Bending and twisting and ~leaping
high
Against a curtain OF midnight sky.
His hair was yellow. his body red
And he waved grey tatters about his
head:
While the kissing thud of his naked
feet
Beat like a pulse In the village street
Fire Is a dervish, | saw him dance
A wild death-dance In the purple
night:
Red and yellow and dingy-white
Twirling and swaying from fast to
slow,
To heavy heel and tired tip-toe,
To fItful gusts OF difficult breath.
To a rudy heap and then to death.

For the first time in the remem-
brance OF old fishermen. smelts in
large quantities have been coming in
to the I.ubec factory docks. and
short distance away there We're
seined up over 200 pounds Of this
fine market fish during the past
week. The smelts are taking the
place OF the harbor pollock, which
have disappeared. and are greedily
swapping up the millions of bushels
of shrimps that are to be seen in
the waters of the upper bay. piled
IN some places several feet wide
along the beach at high tide mark
The presence of smelts is nothing
new up the St. Croix, but their APP
pearance at Lubec is thought to be
due to the vigilance Of the local
warden, VIM. Foley. who prevented
the destruction of the fish during.
the annual spawning run the past
Spring in the brooks thereabouts.

 EnOch Arden was re-enacted in real life here today, when hus- band number one, who had disap- peared 14 years ago, appeared on the scene to find his wife married, but husband number two went away, leaving husband number one with his former wife and children.
 Sixteen years ago Mir. and Mrs. c. H. HuttO married at Hattiesburg. Two children blessed the union. HuttO deserted his wife and chiI- dren. Eight years passed by, and she thought him dead. She married G. F. Winters, of Birmingham, Ala A few months ago, HHttO reappeared on the scene and his former wife met him Sunday at Birmingham and they came to Philadelphia, where Mir. Hutto is employed by the Adams Newell Lumber company of Deemer, Miss, as skidder foreman. MT. Winters traced them to Phila- deIphia and yesterday was a sad scene in the reunited household.
 All through the night, there were loud words, tears and probably had not officers intervened, there would have been bI00dshed. The two chil- dren are boys of IA and 16 years of age, who prefer to live with their own father.
