Every- thfcg was recovered except one suit case, which tbe Portland officials expect to secure shortly. Col. Cumnuna and Mr. Butler spoke very favorably of the 101 Ranch Shows, which they witnessed in Pbrtland, and were very appreciative of courtesies extended to them by Mr. Miller and others. Col. Cummins, Joe Frohsin, Mr. Montague end Capt. Harden were entertained at dinner Friday evening at the Colonial Hotel, Cres- cent Beach, near Rockland, by Mine Host fcmlth. Immediately after the night show started Col. jQunbnlns left for Portland, re- turning Monday at Blddeford, Information reached me that the report concerning Billy and Marlon Waits, Austra- lian ball-whip manipulators and boomerang throwers, who have Just closed a successful vaudeville .season? were Joining the Two Bills' Shows, is In error.

Gate, our auditor's wife, motored over to Island Pond, Vt, from Barton, with Frank Thrasher and Mr. and Mrs. C.

Mrs. Gate being especial- ly delighted at becoming acquainted with tie enterprise and people she has heard so much about. Last week was very unfortunate In the matter of casualties, tbe first serious ones of the season. Monday night, at Bangor, Mrs. Grace Smith, wife of Young Buffalo, collided with a Cossack during the intro- duction. She was thrown violently to the ground, sustaining a dislocation of the hip, and was taken to a hospital two days later, In Augusta, when It was found that ber in- juries were more serious than appeared. Mr. Smith (l'oung Buffalo) last night for Augusta, to spend Sunday with ber, and If conditions warrant, Mrs. Smith will return with hinv to-morrow. Old Bald Hornet, the toughest bucking horse In our string, claimed three victims among the cowboys. Joe Sebastian sustained severe bruises of the left leg and internal injuries at Bangor, at the bands of this horse.

Monday night, after the show. Mr. Cornana invited a small, crowd to go for a ride in a swell motor boat up tbe river to West Point, twelve miles, and It was great after tbe hot day under the white tops. On the way back we stopped at a wayside Inn and there we met some more Joy riders, nnd we all had a Dutch lunch, plenty of beer, nnd music by tbe Italians, wbo were the play- ing kids, so we all bad a dance and then went back to the cars. It was certainly a fine time, and we all enjoyed it.

In tbe evening a nice breeze came up and everybody felt better.

Fourth of July, tbe day we have been making Ibe big preparations for, and the weather was perfect, and two big houses. Well, between shows the committee went down to the cars to get tilings ready for the big night The cars were placed cut a lttle ways so we had a swell place to shoot oft the firecrackers and-at eleven o'clock sharp the celebration started, and it was certainly great. Every one said thit tbe fireworks were the best they had seen In a long time. We had (180 worth of them, so yon can Imagme the display. It kept eight men busy for two bours lighting the fireworks, and the town people had tbe benefit of tbem, too, as It was all aerial stair, and could be seen for miles. After the fireworks we had all the refreahnunts we could drink, end turned Into bed knowing that we had all had a glorious Fourth, and one to be remembered.
