NEW YORK, July 6.-The people of
New Brunswick, N. j., have learned
with regret that the government had
stopped the plan of stamping the letters
received at the postoffice there with the
weather indications for the ensuing "a
hours. No reason was given for the
change.
The idea was introduced in New
Brunswick more than a year ago, and
became very popular in the city. Be.
sides the hour, date and place of receipt
Of the letter. several words were also
stamped telling what the weather
would be during the next day. Sudden
changes in atmospheric conditions
caused the postofice men to hustle very
often to change the stamps from ''fair
and warmer" to Grain ..-. collier" or
other transformations.
Citizens of New Brunswick depended
upon the mail for their meteorological
knowledge, and it is ever said that some
were in the habit Of addressing letters
to themselves each day in order to get
the representations.
1t is said that only Il other p~ostoftice
in the United States, that in an Ala.
bama town, sent out the weather indi.
cations with the mail.
