the house Mr.. Hooper has several smaller
hen houses In which he keeps quite
large number of choice breed OF hens.
The water flowed into ths yard with
such rapidity that soon the hen houses
were flooded and before Mr.. Hooper could
rescue the birds twslve of them had died
from drowning. The stock of poultry was
then removed to the shed adjoining tho
house where they remained In safety, al
though the water eventually found It's
way into the shed and covered the floor.
The cellar of his house was also filled to
the depth of several feet.
On Norwood street the paft that Is now
under process of construction there was
q pool of water several feet deep across
the street and on the low lands. Several

TRAINS WE'RE DELAYED.

The first delay that WAS felt In railroad
traffic was In the evening when tbs train
over the Mountain Division Of the Maine
Central, which la due to arrive in this
city at 8. 10 O'Clock, did not come In to the
Union station until an hour and half
sfter that time. This train was lnts all
along the road, but the tsrdiness in ar
irving In Portland was not due to the
storm. There was only one washout that
was at all bad along the line. This was
on the tracks between the stations Of
Cumberland Mills and Westtrook Juno
ton. Here this train was switched over
to the tracks Of the Worcester and Nashua
division of the Roston aud Maine. At
Yesttrook Junction IL then returned to
the lgulsr Maine Central tracks and
came into Portland as usual. The isf
resson Of the lats arrival of the evening
train was that prompt connection bad not
been made with st. Johnsbury.
The trsshet at Gardiner Is the worst
that has been known in many years. On
aocount OF this alone the night Pullman
train which Is 5ue to arrive In this city
at 40 O'Clock this morning had not ar
rived at the time Of going to prssF, ard
the officials of the Rad stated at late
hour last evening that there was little
likelihood that this train would reach
Portland before seven O'Clock this morn-
ing. The train that IL due to arrive at
g. IS o'clock will reach tie city at just
about the same time, as this ether train
AS clearing weather followed the storm
last night, th6rs is not likely to be any
delay in the Maine Central traffic to-day.
All OF the trains over the Boston and
Maine departed from and arrived In tbs
city On regular schedule time, the sto m
not having caused the slightest damage
