GOOD SLEIGHING
AT The SEASHORE
The DOings of Wildwood These
Wintry January Days. The
Island Snow Covered.
10Th CENTURY GIRLS TO HOLD FESTIVAL

The cold weather of a week ago gave
way to cloudy, foggy weather last Fri
day and Saturday. Late Saturday
night and early Sunday morning a
great deal of rain fell, which was fol-
lowed by clearing and colder weather.
Snow commenced falling again about
daybreak Monday morning, Feb. 4th,
and continued most all day. In the
evening the snow turned to mixture
of rain and hail, which packed the four
or five inches of snow on the level,
making most excellent sleighing all
over the island. 1t is seldom that the
weather conditions unite in way to
make such good sleighing at the sea-
shore as there is at present, but not a
single sleigh has been seen on the
street. Today is an ideal cold winter
day, clear and sunny. The train ser
vice was not interfered with to any
great extent. The express from Phila-
-delphia yesterday due here at eleven
O'Clock was about half hour late.
The train by way of Millville due here
at $50 did not arrive until about noon.
