water of the Delaware over to the
Jersey shore and so'emptied the Creek

! Friday at all, ,'and was thus forced to
remain until Monday. 1t is a very rare

THE down train on Saturday evening,
was delayed at Kirkwood two hours by
freight train having run off the track
The passengers due here did not get in
until after ten o'clock. The train had
the further misfortune of delay by an
accident to the engine, the cylinder
head blowing out, the engine of the
branch road having to convey the bella
ted train to its destination, reaching
there about midnight.
THE blizzard" that came dashine
across the country from the Rocky
mountains, struck us on Thursday
sending the mercury down to 10 the

streets, making walking up till th'
noon hour q very uncertain exercise
No women were seen OF the streets
until the latter part of the day
Another rain to-day suspends largel!
