COLD AND SNOW
THIS MORNING
Temperature Down to 26, Which Is
Unusual for This Time of Year
Cold for Several Days.

The law of averages seems fair to be
maintained so far as the weather is con-
cerned. The past winter was unusually
warm, but the spring continues cold, and
this morning there was furry OF snow
sufficient to whiten the ground, which is
unusual for April %
A difference of 10 degrees in the mini
mum temperature was recorded at F. r
Naughan's yesterday and today, the low
est yesterday being So degrees and the
lowest today being 26 degrees. The high
est mark reached yesterday was 40. The
low mark Wednesday was 30 degrees and
the lowest Tuesday 81 degrees.
There have been frosts every morning
for some time, and this morning there
was freeze.

SENATORS APPLAUD WILSON.
Republican Critics Uphold Hinl-Could
Take No Other Stand. Borah Says

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The atti-
tude Of President Wilson in opposing rec
ognition of the secret treaty of London,
as put forth by Italy in asserting her
claim to Fiume, met the approval of sen
ators at the capitol. Republican senators
such as Mr.. Borah of Idaho and Mr..
johnson of California, who have not hesi-
tated to critieise the President, agreed
with others, that his policy in opposition
to secret treaties was to be commended.
Senator Borah argued that the contro-
versy over iFiume, together with that re-
garding the insistence of the japanese on
racial equality, Illustrated the difficulty IN
which the United States would perpetual
ally find itself through joining a league
of nations. 1t was strong argument, he
maintained, against this country enter
ing any league that would involve it in
entangling alliances.
Senator johnson said:
The Presidents decision, as I under
stand it, is that he, as the representative
of America, will not recognize secret
treaties by which territories and peoples
We're bartered away during the war |
am in hearty accord with this attitude.
IF the President stands firm, if he
maintains what we assume to be his pres
ent attitude and declines to carry into
execution the secret bargains by which
lpeoples were disposed of without their
knowledge or consent, and without ours
| if he refuses to compromise, the very
humble support ] can give him in this
matter will be most cheerfully accorded

MAIL SERVICE ON
TWO NEW TRAINS
Goes into Effect May on Trains Ar
irving from South About p m.
and from North at $50 p. m.

Definite and official information has
been received by Postmaster M. ]. Mo-
ran and by the board of trade from the
postofiiee department that mail service
will be restored May 4 with the re-
sumption of the afternoon northbound
train leaving Springfield Mass, at
1915 p m. and arriving in Brattleboro
about two o o'elock andf the evening
southbound train leaving White River
Junction at 6 p. m. and leaving here
about $50 o clock.
This resumption of mail service has
come through a request of the board of
trade and the postmaster transmitted
through the proper channels.
Notice also has been received that
the postoffiee department is investigat-
ing complaints which were made by the
board some time ago relative to delays
in the receipt of mail and the mortal
ity of second class matter leaving
Brattleboro for various points in the
postal districts of the larger cities.
This fact is evidence that the post
office department is desirous of coop
Grating with the public, also that the
recent letter of the first assistant post
master general asking for suggestions
in regard to the service was not merely
an ordinary matter, and the replies
were not handled as ordinary matters
but were given as prompt attention as
possible.
The postoflice department requests
specific instances of delay of secont
class matter and the board of trade il
now endeavoring to keep careful rec
ord of all such cases and call them i'm
mediately to the attention of the de
partment. ANY eases of delay should b,
reported promptly in order that the,
may be taken up with the department
for adjustment
All pieces of mail on the West Rive
branch of the Central Vermont rail
road are being counted the last fou
days of this week, at all stations, boil
outgoing and incoming mail, as a resul
of Postmaster Moran : request tha
man clerk service be restored on tha
branch. This is to determine whethe
the volume of mail handled is sufiei
ept TO warrant granting the request
and it applies to all classes.

Crowd Began Collecting
Soon After Daylight

BOSTON, April 25.-The Yankee bows
came marching home today. They found
pretty much all New England on the
cheering line. For three weeks those
who carried the torch overseas have been
coming back, but this was the real home
coming when in battle array, with flags
flying and drums beating they marched
in familiar streets and into the hearts
OF the multitude, as each soul in the
mighty throng expressed its emotion in
its own peculiar way.
The one time national guardsrnen of
New England, now the famous 26th dfvi-
sion of the United States, the first ma
tional guard division in France fights
on unperturbed like the veterans they
are.
All New England shared in the well
come.
In the double roadways at Common
wealth avenue each of the six states had
a stand where state and municipal off
cials, congressman and senators, and a
host of home folks welcomed their own.
AT | o'clock Maj Gen. Edwards, to
whom Maj. Gen. Hale yielded the place
of honor, gave the word and the final ad-
vance of the 26th was under way. Start
ing at Charles and Beacon street the YD
moved 10000 strong through Beacon
street and passed the state house where
the New England governors, representa-
tives of the army and navy and Massa-
chusetts officials gave rousing recep-
tion to the doughboys. The marching
heroes met with a warm reception all
along the line.
THE Yanks are Coming" was the cry
that awoke Boston today 1t was an
ideal day for the parade as far as the
marchers were concerned, but furs were
in demand for the grandstand throng.
Early in the day the temperature was at
freezing and the sky was overcast most
of the time with occasional snow fiurries.
Everywhere along the line of march and
| in other sections as well the stars and
stripes and the colors of the allied ma
tions snapped smartly in the brisk wind.
