one Boat HauIs 500 shad.

The little blizzard. which visited this
section on Saturday and which has left
the temperature at low point. was a
serious blow to the Establishing industry
all along the Delaware. Fishermen
have been, greatly disappointed as they
had expected that to-day would be one
of the biggest Of the season. Last
week was q prosperous season for the
bay fishermen, William Bartlett who
went down with a crew from this city
caught 800 shad during the week. This
Is remarkable work as the net profits for
the week were sufficient to pay all
equipment bills for the entire season. This
has never been done before In one week
by a New Castle fisherman. Bartlett
will 60 down again to-day.
