The Storm.

1t was a regular old-fashioned snow
storm that greeted the people, early
Monday morning. The wind was blow
ing a gale from the northwest and the
rural districts were drifted to quite
an extent, but the rural mail carriers
made their routes all right as well as
the city carriers. The snow continued
to come all the forenoon. The city
teams were breaking out the side
walks with their snow plows. The
Maine Central had several extra men
at work shoveling- off the platform of
the passenger station. The trains We're
late, all day The forenoon train
bound west, was IS minutes late; the
noon train was about a half hour late.
the Accommodation train, due here
at about / o'clock, was about 80 min
utes, and the All p. NJ. train, bound
west. was also late. The traffic on the
road was small. The I1lectrics were
off time. more or less during the day.
but the ears were kept moving. About
/ O'Clock in the afternoon the snow
turned TO rain and made the sidewalks
slippery. One good feature about the
storm was that it was not a very cold
one. The mercury, last week, fell to
about IS degrees in the coolest places,
but Monday ii was quite mild, all day.
