fort by Chairman Hitchcock of the

Entente Allies Have Made
Landing Near Head of
Gulf of Saloniki
MOVE DICTATED BY
STRATEGIC REASONS
King Constantine Said to Fear That
Greece May Be Eventually Dragged
Into the War Through Premier Veni-
zelos's Influence.

With the nearer approach of spring
indications are multiplying of prepara-
tions for active campaigning on the va
lious fronts. Such actual fighting as
is going on, however, while locally i'm
portant, as that in France and Pelgi-
um, is apparently not indicative of the
beginning as yet of any operations on
a large scale.
The situation in the Balkans con-
tinues to excite marked interest and
increasing attention is being given to
developments in connection with
Greece. The allies for their part have
made a new move in making a landing
on the Karaburun peninsula near the
head of the gulf of Saloniki, occupying
the Greek ports there.
The move seems to have been die
tated by strategic reasons, it being
considered undesirable by the entente
forces to Rave the position in other
hands than their own.
A Greek despatch from a TeutoniC
source carries the information that
King Constantine and his close associ
ates fear that Greece may be dragged
into war eventually through the intlu
ence of Premier Nenizelos with TIL,
Greek people, the idea of a revolu
tionary movement of grave charaete
not being absent from the mind 0,
the ruler and his political and militar,
aides.
Coincidently there are revived re
ports that a speedy advance on Salo
niki is contemplated by the Teutoni
allies ard that the Turkish forces, no
tably the Gallipoli army, are moving t
positions where they viii be ready I
participate in the attack.

BOVIE'S DEATH DUE
TO HEART DISEASE
Here for Burial-Asphyxiatio
Was Thought Possible.

The body of Adopis Bowie who was
found dead in the Esleeck Mfg, Co. Is
garage Thursday evening in Turner's
Falls, Mass, was brought here for
burial yesterday. 1t has been determin-
ed that his death was due to heart
disease. The funeral will be held Mon
day morning at clock at St Mi
chael S church and the burial will take
place in the Catholic cemetery.
From the position of the body in
front of the automobile it was thought
at first that Bowie might have become
asphyxiated by fumes from the auto
mobile exhaust On the other hand, it
was known that he had not been feel
ing well and that about 3 clock he
left the mill intending to GO home for
the rest of the day. He was chauffeur
for Mr. Esleeek.

DEATH TODAY OF
MRS. MARY WARDER
Was a Lifelong Resident of This
Village and a Woman of Delight
full Personality.

Mrs. Mary Chaplin Warder died at
her home in The Colonial at an early
hour this morning. In her death there
passes a lifelong resident of this
village and a representative of one of
the Oldest Brattleboro families. She
was born in the old Chaplin homestead
which stood ON the corner of Main and
High streets, now occupied by the
Brooks House, the family removing
not long afterwards to the we'll
known house which still stands facing
the common at the corner of Linden
and Chaplin streets. Her husband was
Charles Warder, a member of a prom
inent Philadelphia family, who came as
an invalid to the widely-known and
fashionable Wesselhoeft Watercure, and
whose death took place in 1865.
Since that time Mrs. Warder had
lived life of quiet retirement, but
of active usefulness, interested in
every good work in the community
and devoted especially to all the ac-
tivities of the Unitarian church-not
only of the home church, but an at
tendant and helper through many
years on its local and national con
ferences and other public gatherings.
She was among the first women to be
come interested in the work of the
Woman s Alliance of that denomina-
tion. She was the president of the 10
cal Alliance and a director in the
National Alliance.
Her circle of intimate friends knew
her rs woman of delightful person
ality, of unusual taste and cultivation
In literature and art, and a genial but
discriminating critic whose comment:
always had flavor and an insight
| distinctly their own. No one but her
self has ever known in anything like
full measure of the constant acts OF
kindness, helpfulness and sympathy
| which flowed ceaselessly through al
the years of her mature life
Of five brothers and sisters the only
one now remaining is Charles J. Chapir
of Albany, Oregon, the youngest of tht
family.

WEATHER
PAST EIGHT DAYS
Mean Temperature SO as Against %
for Corresponding Period Last Year
Soft Spell Now Broken.

The soft spell was broken yesterday
afternoon. The Marchy walking and
early April atmosphere began to give
way to what persons are pleased to
term in this section-seasonabl wealth
er. In other words the mercury began
to slip down to point where there is
some comfort in having a coal fire. For
a week coal fires have been maintained
because it is the custom to burn coal
during the month of January, not be-
cause there was much need of them.
With their usual perverseness the
furnace fires refused to stay banked
the past week. Coal, that when the
mercury slides down below zero re-
quires two men and boy to keep it
showing ambition, burned with an
abandon that gave off heat enough to
operate a glass factory. Last night it
began to show the effects of its recent
efforts and required a draft to reviVify
it.
Men who have been explaining for
week that they were so full blooded
they did not require heavy clothing,
those who haven't lugged home a few
grip germs, this morning were showing
a little more regard for the season.
Fewer shirt sleeves and more outer
coats were in evidence. As for the wo-
men. they have stuck to their muffs
and low cut dresses, which are always
in style regardless of the temperature.
The weather sharps talk wisely about
the mean temperature. Even they ad
nit that the last week was a little
meaner than any other week in any
previous January. Boston, the burg
of east winds and education, has noted
that the mercury there touched &c last
Wednesday and a baseball game was
played that day. Locally the best that
| could be done in the way of high mark
was so and nobody even thought base
| ball.
Starting with last week Friday and
including yesterday the high mark il
temperature daily was as follows: A
40, 81, 80, 40, so, 40, so.
Last Monday was the coldest of tn,
eight, the mercury dropping at one time
to the Is mark, but it did that only
momentarily to show that the methoC
of slipping had not been forgotten.
The mean temperature for those eigh
days was 36 as against mean TEN
perature for the corresponding eigh
days of 1915 of %, and for many year
back . has been about the average.
