THE WICoMIco SITUATION.
just Beginning To Realize the En-
tent of the Blizzard.

Salisbury. Nd. Feb 16-The great eX-
tent of the blizzard is just beginning to be
known in Salisbury. Communication has
been established by telephone and tele-
graph with various parts of Wicomico
county The first railroad train TO reach
Salisbury since Sunday night came yester-
day afternoon over the New York, Phil
adelphia, and Norfolk Railroad. 1t was a
local train from Cape Charles TO Delmar
There are no connections North yet via
Delaware Railroad Not mail has reached
Salisbury from any point since Sunday
morning.
Advices from Sharpstown say that sec
tion of Wicomico county is completely cut
off from the outside world. The snow is
twenty-three inches on the level and drifts
from four to eight feet deep. The roads
are impossible. The Nanticoke River is
frozen solid. There has been suffering
among the poor, but the more fortunate
citizens are looking out for the needy. 1t
is impossible to hear from the interior
country.
Nanticoke reports via telephone from
White Haven to Princess Anne as follows:
1T is hard to calculate damage done this
section by the storm. The river has eight
inches of ice from shore to shore and
suffering among the oystermen caught
away from home has been intense The
roads are blocked and suffering among the
poor, who were caught without fuel and
provisions, is without parallel. The oys-
ter industry is paralyzed and hundreds are
out of work. Ii is feared the planted oys-
ter will suffer on account of thick ice''
Reports from the eastern section of Wi
comico county come by telegraph from
Pittsville as follows: I'VE are cut off from
communication with all sections: no such
storm ever visited the eastern part of this
county. Snow is piled higher than the
fences, making travel impossible. Much
suffering among poor people and cattle.
Thermometer this evening registered de-
grees below zero. Several farmers have
today broken the roads with snow plows.
using eight and ten mules to plow By
this means the people may be able to
reach town tomorrow

The Mysterious Passenger.

The captain of a vessel which was
bringing to America in the fall of 1895
a mysterious passenger who had come
aboard at Hamburg watched the latter
so closely that at last the passenger said
one day: Sir, this is not the first occa-
sion upon which I have observed the
attentive scrutiny you bestow upon me.
May I inquire the reason:"
Sir" responded the candid captain,
"you took passage on my ship as a
Dane. don't believe you re anything Of
the kind. -
The passenger smiled. The smile was
full of perspicacity and confidence and
was followed with, "Pray, tell me,
then, what you believe me to be. y
At this question Captain Ewing
fdgeted, hesitated and finally blurted
out: "Well, to be honest, think you
are gambler. You've we'll nigh ruined
yourself at home and are now coming
to fleece the fools you'll find on shore. :"
The young mans smile broadened.
The next minute he turned grave again,
lowered his voice and replied: "Cap'
tain Ewing, as you have studied me
during this voyage so 1 have studied
you. I have come to the conclusion
that you are man to be trusted. I
am Louis Philippe, due d'Orleans, eld-
est son of that Louis Philippe d'Orleans
who was slain by the guillotine on the
7th of November, almost three years
ago. "-Argonaut
