Miss Taylor opened the fatal packag ge
which contained the bomb, will be CIV

Feinberg on technical charge OF
Homicide. but the police seem inclined
to accept his statement that he knew
nothing OF the bomb until the explo-
sion occurred.
Efforts either to establish motive for
the crime or to find the messenger who
delivered the innocent looking cigarette
boX with its death dealing contents have
thus far proved unavailing. The police
learned, however. that there was anothe;'
man in the apartment just previous u
the explosion. The police say they have
his name but will not make it public un-
til they have interrogated him. After an
examination of the remains of the bomb
Coroner Feinberg said it betrayed great

Camp Endorses
Football Changes.

New Haven, CT, Feb. 4.-Walter Camp.
athletic advisor of Yale, stated. tonight,
that he thought the changes in the rules
made by the football rules committee tge
one move that could be taken to make
the rules of the game permanent. In
speaking of the changes he said;
''The changes had to be very marked
in order that the offensive team be given
a better chance. When the game l.
taken up again the plays will be more
brilliant. Under the new rules there are
some excellent chances for great plays.
The scoring will be easier and there viii
be more running. We have allowed the
blocking of the ends going. down under
a kick This is an important step. 1t al
lows the backfeld man making the eaten
to make some very pretty plays. The IN
crease of the value of a touchdown from
five to six points is another step in Ia
vor of the running game. The elemina-
ton of the 20-yard zone is, in my mind,
a splendid move toward the general SIM
plifcation of the game. The changes
Were necessarily marked, but they helped
in the general simpification of the game
We have been hoping each year that the
rules from the time they were changed
would be permanent. With the present
changes the game will bring out more
running and is generally simplihed.

January Record
Month for Cold.

1t has been pretty we'll settled by
common agreement that the month of
January just passed was the coldest
month for several years but some
have doubted whether it was colder
than Januard, 1907. George H. Marr,
who is the official observer, cooperat-
ing with the United States weather
bureau in gathering its meteorological
statistics. is authority for the state
ment that this last month was colder
than January, 1907, in Waterville.
The average minimum temperature
for January, 1912 was 20 degrees below
zero. The average maximum tempera-
ture was 29.09 degrees. Taken togeth-
er they give an average mean tenn
perature of about Is degrees above
zero for the whole month. The aver
age minimum temperature for January,
1907, was higher than that of 1912.
In January, 1907, the maximum tenn
perature was below zero only one day,
while during two days in 1912 the
maximum was below, and one day the
highest temperature was zero. On Is
days in the past month, the mercury
dropped below the zero mark, and by
referring to the figures, one can see
that from the 24th to the 18th of the
month, the quicksilver went down un-
der that mark every day. The coldest
Gay in the month was. according to the
II. & w. thermometer, Jan 26, when
% below was reached. From the 10th
to the 18th, the thermometer was be-
low zero part of the time each day.
going down TO 25 degrees on the 18th.
In comparison with January in other
wears. the following figures will be of
interest: January. 1911, average mini
mum, S.06; average maximum, 30.s7;
average mean, 1875 degrees, or de-
grees warmer than the first month of
this year. January. 1910, was an ex-
ceptionally warm month, the average
minimum temperature being 2S.19 and
the average maximum, 33, making an
average mean of S0.5. or II degrees
warmer than last month. January,
1909, shows ~ minimum average of 6
