Coal In Folklore,

Probably most policemen could have
answered the question of the magls-
trate who asked a burglar in court
why he carried about pieces of coal.
Among other coal folklore is the bur
glars firm faith that the possession
of a piece confers good luck, and when
searched in the police station it Is
usually found In his pocket. A belief
in coal as tallsman is said to have
been held by the early Britons, and it
is certainly frequently found in their
burial places converted into personal
ornaments, such as beads, etc. Believ-
ers in dreams maintain thot to dream
of coal is certain sign Of coming rich
es. Then, too, there is the speculum
or mirror of divination-that caused
such n sensation in the sixteenth CEN
tury-of DR.. Dee, which subsequently
formed part of the Strawberry Hill
collection. 1t was formed of camel
coal, though the doctor pretended to
have received 1t from the angels

the advance made by his big orange

this attitude on the part OF the chief
executive wearisome. Reasonable
argument. both for and against the
bill recently vetoed by the governor
and passed over his veto by the deg
islaulre, has been made during the
past week by the state press. What
ever the merits or dement's OF the
bill may be, the fact remains that
the governor has right to express
his disapprova of any measure
passed by the legislature. That body
may pass the measure In spite or
his disapproval, of course, but cour-

doubtful whether such consideration
was given, In this case, when we are

members of the senate, where the
bill originated" because the after

Lawlessness, the unrestrained IN

good, Is certainly the nations great

which years of private and Official

American Defiance of Law.

The Rutland Herald quotes the
I.ondon Spectator as saying thar
rich men openly defy the law IN
America and that it is the admins
tration of the law which Is at fauit'
the actual statute law in this couh-
trv being more than sufficient to put
down corruption. The Spectator as
serts that no attempt to purify
American life can be permanently
successful until greater weight OF
authority. is given to the judicature
of ordinary state courts.
To this the Herald replies:
We doubt if violent crime has in
creased in 20 years faster than the
population; neither do we think that
our judiciary is inferior in morals to
that of England. We are running
into an era of graft that Will re-

legislators who are bribed and all

hope for the future is in the men in

Sir Edward Clarke is technically
right in his structures on the use OF
the word American by the United
states in designation of its en-
bassies. 1t is as indefinite a title,
literally, as would be the word Euro
mean applied to the British embassa-
dor at Washington. But the order TO
use it has gone forth from the state
department and is being obeyed. one

civil in bringing up a matter OF this
