tween nine and ten o'clock In the

at that time, it is also busy for 9TH

II the person persists in visiting
during the busy hours will have fine
consideration for others, she will do 1t

The fire started in the second story
of the cottage house at 10 a.. M
Mrs. Lyster and her two children
were in the house at the time. MI.
Lyster, who is on the jury in the
Caledonia County Court, was in st.
Johnsbury court house at the time.
The blaze started around the CHM
ney and had gained great Roadway
when discovered. Mrs. Lyster got
her children out of the house and
called for "help." T. H. Lyster and
other neighbors responded. BY hard
work they removed all thefurniture
and goods from the first floor
The flames spread with great rap
idity famed by the high wind which
swept across the valley wherein the
farm is located. The house was soon
doomed and the flames spread to the
barn. This was totally destroyed.
For a time it was feared the flames
and burning embers would set fire to
the big round barn Of the Lyster
place a short distance away.
There was no stock in the barn
and Mr.. Lyster had his horse and
carriage in st. Johnsbury.
The cottage house that was burned
was erected about 40 years ago. Sir.
Lyster had lived on the place for the
past dozen years. There is about
$1,000 insurance on the property
which was burned.

LONDON SAYS
Have Received Bid---Better
Terms for Germany Due to
Notifications Made
BIZ A Ssocidted Press.
IA DIS NH.s.4.

PARIS, March 1S:-Inclusion Of
the League of Nations covenant in
the preliminary peace treaty will not
delay signing of the treaty which 1t
is hoped will be accomplished within
two weeks, said Lord Robert Cecil,
of Great Britain, talking to British
and American newspaper corre-
spondents tonight. He said three
amendments to the covenant had
been submitted but added he was
sure there will be no difficulty in
meeting all legitimate objections"
Discussing Monroe Doctrine and the
effect of the league of nations uroh
II, Lord Robert said
THE Monroe Doctrine is strength
ened by the league of nations cove
nant because international action will
be carried out by the organs of the
league. The United States will be
represented on each body, and since
these bodies are international, no ac-
tion can be taken without the consent
of all. No action can be taken by the
league which is opposed by the United
States government unless such action
should be against the United States
itself. and that would not affect fhe
Monroe Doctrine.
"If. on the other hand. the view. Is
that there ought to shs, a Jsempfass.
and watertgbt divisiC A2ktween the
American continent and the rest Of the
world, then no doubt, any action in
which America takes part would Nbe
an infringement of the Monroe Doc
trine. For my part / shall regard any
such doctrine as disastrous to the fu-
ture of the world.
The military terms of the treaty
of peace have been amended by the
of the clause providing
for the control of Germany's arma-
ment for an indefinite period. Admir-
w IN 4r4
Navy, pointed out that the original
terms permitted the United States TO
a virtually indefinite occupation of
Germany, and IL was chiefly on his
insistance that the terms were modi-
fled The American delegates also
pointed out that control of any por-
tion of Germany for such period
would delay the return home of
American troops and would amount
to annulling the sovereignty of Ger
many.
As amended. the terms provide for
control through the time fixed for de-
livery of the material for guns and
ships, but not through the period
during which war damages will he
paid by Germany.
Premier Lloyd George, who WAS
asked by President Wilson. Premier
and Premier Orlando to
postpone his return to London, has
decided to remain in Paris until tho
draft of the treaty of peace is con-
cluded.
The peace conference commission
on the international regime of ports.
and railways met at the
of public work today to con-
slider clauses regarding transportation
by rail to be inserted in the treaty OF
peace.
Consideration OF these clauses will
be continued at the meeting of the
next Thursday.
