 steamer Lexington, which left New York for Providence last evening.
 No marine casualties have been re- ported, but the condition of the weather is such that captains of in coming ships have avoided attempts to enter the harbor and are holding off in deep water to ride out the gale.
 Weather bureau reports indicate that the storm center was centered this morning off the Delaware capes and moving N slowly northeastward- All along the coast from Hatteras north high seas and strong winds were reported.
 The high tide flooded the Erie ter mina1 in Jersey City and several hun dred yards of the street from the en- trance to the station. Ferry service to New York was discontinued. Water leaked from the Erie station into e station of the Hudson tubes and sprin- kled commuters. Some New Jersey trains were two hours late arriving at Jersey City owing to snow drifts.
 Reports from the New York quar- antine station, on the easterly shore of Staten Island, were that heavy ice foes from the Hudson river were be- ing driven on the beaches and against the wharves The b1inding snow storm made it impossible for observ- CTS to see more than a hundred yards off shore and two ships which came in during the night were locat- ed by the captains of the health of ficers' tugs by repeated whistling.
 The Pasadena, a summer hotel on the beach at the foot of 86th street, Brooklyn, was washed into New York Bay by the wind beaten comb CTS which dashed high on the shore during the night and early morn ing. The police reported it a, total loss. Two bathing pavilions on the same beach, at the foot of 102nd and Hath streets, also were swept away
 Meriden, Conn, Feb. 5-Traff1c in Meriden was seriously crippled by the storm Trains on the New Haven road were from half hour to two hours late and had much trouble in leaving the station on account of slippery rails, and the trolleys were forced to drop their schedule. A dozen motor busses carrying workers to the New Departure plant in Bris- tol were compelled by drifts to turn back at Southington.
 winsted, Feb. 5-Traff1c in all di rections was impeded last night by the blizzard and it's resumption today was not easy. Trains were much off schedule and all were being hauled by two locomotives
 Highways are blocked by drifts. A funeral party which was to be car ried from Collinsville to Goshen had to stop here indefinitely and the body was placed in q vault at Forest View cemetery.

wives at an deliberately appointed din
ner The scheme for serving this din
ner Gas Matched at at dinner party
given recently at the Howard home
when several women served a most
tempting menu to the men and their
wives. At that time 1t was decided
BY the men that the affair deserved
recognition and that they would DEM
pnstrate Il! the women that they too
had some prowess,as cooks and cater
srs. TIC; this end the women were in
vited TO a seven o'clock dinner at the
Howard home last evening. Commit
tees were appointed to prepare the
menn and to prepare the yiands and
10 prepare program and to see that
the ladies' we're brought to the dinner

ed themselves comfortably in the liv-
ing rom and awaited their appear
apee. The women were not allowed
even o look in and we're surprised en-
tirely when the dinner was served.
During the course of the dinner
Mrs. 10. w. Howard was presented
/, with French basket of flowers
which were fashioned from vegeta-
,bies and fruits which had been cary
ed TO represent flowers and was the
