Thermometers Under the Zero Mark-Quinnipiac Avenue
 Water Main Bursts.

The Fair Haven district was ice bound, yesterday and sight of the frozen rivers was enough to remind one of day in the Arctic region. And it was pretty cold, too. Some thermom- eters recorded 10 below zero, although in most places, it was about five de- grees below zero early in the morn ing. Some got their ears nipped by Jack Frost although most people who were out early and looking at the low reading of the thermometer, protected themselves pretty well against the cold Mill and Quinnipiac rivers were closed by ice and there was not much naviga- ton, although powerful tugs had no difficulty in breaking through. The steamer H. c. Rowe & Company with $500 bushels of oysters, arrived yester- day morning from Narragansett bay, having no difficulty in breaking a chan nel through the ice. But the ice soon closed in again. Above Quinnipiac drawbrdge, there are half a dozen small oyster steamers securely frozen in along the Quinnipiac wharves and they will not try to get out for the present The ice is thick and none of them save the new steamer Amanda Lancraft would be able to make good against the thick ice. This new boat is protected by very heavy copper sheathing and could easily break out the channel In fact. this craft is go- ing out tomorrow on her first trip and will go over to Greenport to load oys- ters. The schooner. Eva Lewis has nearly finished discharging $500 bush els of oysters for T,ancraft Brothers and the Fred Snow is in with 450O bushels for the same firm. The com pany will not discharge the Snow for the present, but will keep the craft for a storehouse for the oysters, as the captain Is in no hurry to'take his yes sel to sea this weather
