on their backs as they boarded a south

The early truckers are getting their hot
house beds ready for planting tomato
seeds.
The prices for poultry remain good
from 20 to % cents a pound. The supply
has been extra large for this time oil the
year. More people are raising poultry
and of better quality than ever before in
this region and making more money.
1t is currently reported that the COM
pany which runs the Wilson line of
steamers between Wilmington and Phila-
delphia has bought the steamer Ulrica
and the Penn's Grove wharf; that the
wharf will be extended two hundred feet
in the spring, and that the Wilson line OF
sGeamers will stop at Penn's Grove on
their way to and from Philadelphia, as
o as the wharf is completed.
Because we published last week the
statement that the delinquent taxes OF
1910 amounted to $l370'97, when last
years statement was published to show
by comparison that they were $3.50. 70
greater in 1911, some inferred that the
former amount still remains unpaid. BY
reference to the last statement will be
seen that $l24l.65 of 1910 delinquents
had been paid, leaving $129.32 unpaid.
The three men who were injured by the
explosion in the chemical building on
Carney Point on January 81 are recover

The swiftness of travel is wonderful to-
day when we consider how long it took
to 60 or send something some years ago.
A copy of the Times published at Bonn
bay, India, on January 18th, reached
Penn's Grove, on February 18th. 1t is a
large paper consisting Of twelve pages,
printed in English. 1t was established
in 1888, People who think the inhabi-
tants OF India are ignorant and illiterate
because they did not have the Christian
religion are greatly mistaken.

Water Supply Frozen

The seventh continuous week of freez-
ing weather has passed, a longer time of
real winter thar many can recall.
The temperature last Saturday morn
ing was zero; Sunday, s; Monday, IS;
Tuesday, l6; Wednesday, IS; Thursday,
IS; this Friday, 81. On Tuesday, We'd
nesday and Thursday there were some
melting OF snow and ice, pet the ground is
still partly covered. Along the fences
snow banks are from l to 3 feet high in
the country, but the ice has melted from
the middle of the roads and partly from
the sidewalks so that travelling is now
very good.
The long continued cold weather has
frozen the ground to an unprecedent
depth, so that the water pipes on Beach
Avenue and Pitman street were frozen
and water ceased to flow into the houses
for use. Some had to carry water.
The pipe organ in Emmanuel Church
could not be used last Sunday because
the water supply which ran the motor
was frozen.
The river is frozen over solid to the
western channel. Ice is not moving IN
the eastern channel. The breaking up
of the ice in the cove last week left a
clear place off Divers point, which was
frozen and made excellent skating.
The Wilson line of steamers has con-
tinued to run between Wilmington and
Philadelphia with some difficulty in get
ting out of Christiana creek. The sur
face Of the river at Philadelphia
is covered with broken ice aud would be
frozen solid so a team could be driven
over, but for the boats plying thru. Last
Saturday and Sunday the ferry boats had
much difficulty in running.
The higher temperature the last two
days indicates the appearance of spring
weather, altho the chilly moisture in
the atmosphere feels as much like snoN
as it does like rain.
The weather bureau reports 300 degree,
deficiency in temperature since Janu
airy, which is convincing proof of til,
rigor Of the winter.

 The trial of the defendants, headed by President Ryan, of the Inter national Association of Bridge and Structural Ironworkers, and including other officials of that union- togeth- CT with the members of two other unions will then begin District At torney Mills will open the case for the government. His opening state ment, which is already prepared and contains 500 typewriter pages, will cover the ground upon which the prosecution intends, by testimony, to sustain the charges that the dyna- mite conspiracy continued five or six year. that McManigaPs confession of working in the "dynamitin9 crew" is corroborated by persons from many sections of the country and that the McNamaras were not alone in ii nancing and arranging for the wide spread system of blowing up the works of employers of non-union la bor.
 Frank Sutton a farmer, one of the veniremen examined today, said he had ever heard of the dynamiting cases or of the trial of the Me Namara's in Los Angeles.
