The old campfire has been ex- tinguished. all but an ember used to light new campfire in the new wig wam where the councils of the tribe will be held and where the members of the tribe will congregate in dis cussion of matters pertaining to the tribe and occasional feasting.
 The new quarters of the tribe is in the Zaltas Block, rooms last occupied as tailor shop. The tribe has a large front room on Front street, B smaller room at the entrance, and in the rear a kitchen. All have been newly painted and scrubbed A visit to the rooms shows that the tribe Is to be nicely housed from now on.
 The tribe was organized some seven years ago and was first located in the G. A. R. building on Front street that was burned in the big fire which destroyed the Wheaton Build ing & Lumber Company's plant Left without a home the tribe hired the hall in kent's block on Pomfret street across the way from the Odd Fellows lodge rooms. The hall became known as Red Mems Hall.
 For some months past. for various reasons. the chiefs of the tribe have had under consideration removing 10 new quarters. When the rooms in the Zaltas block came under their obser- vation they hired them and began re- modelling. repairing and painting. The first meeting in the new rooms will be held when the tribe meets tonight.
 Aside from the lodge room features the front room with large plate glass windows makes an excellent lounging place for members of the tribe While not exactly a club it is believed that the new cosy quarters will be used to a much greater extent than were the old quarters, for eongregating. The lodge is one of the most active in the city and during the winter season holds many entertaining social affairs

FOURTH OF JULY
1t May be Said, Literally, that Els
worth Celebrated Quietly.

Ellsworth was almost deserted on
the Fourth, with the exodus to Bar
Harbor and Bluehill, yet traffic was
never heavier on the streets. From
early morning until noon, there was
a steady stream of cars passing
through to Bar Harbor, and this
stream continued through the after
noon and evening, with the flow the
other way.
Of course, at Bar Harbor, the big
drawing card was the dirigible
Shenandoah, which had flown from
her home station at Lakehurst, N. j.,
as compliment to the governors as
sembled there. The Shenandoah
reached Bar Harbor about sunset
Friday night, and many from ELS
worth and other towns were in Bar
Harbor to greet her.
But it was not necessary to go to
Bar Harbor to see her. Few towns
along the Maine coast missed
glimpse of her on her trip to Maine,
and during her forenoon flight over
the islands and bay, many of the
Hancock county coast towns had
closeup view of her. She was plain
ly seen from Ellsworth and towns
further north. In the afternoon she
flew over Bluehill and then in di-
rect line to Camden, giving some of
the more inland towns a glimpse of
her After passing over Camden, she
bore away for her home station in
New Jersey, where she tied up in her
hangar at 9.55 O'Clock Sunday morn
ing.
In spite of the big attraction at
Bar Harbor, Bluehill also entertained
big crowds at it's carnival, and Fred
G. Smith catered to many more at
the opening of his new resort, Sunset
Park, on the shore of Green lake.
Family picnic parties and trips Of
many others to the shore or to quiet
inland resorts to avoid the traffic, al
most completed the emptying of Els
worth, and to the few stay-at-
the Fourth was like an unusually
quiet Sunday

struck only once in hundred strokes

Built With Method

Houses in Bulgaria are designed so
as to blend with the landscape; in fact,
they are often indistinguishable from
it. This practice dates from the time
of the Turkish rule. when it was de-
srable for Bulgarans to live as unob
trusively as possible.
