ooRoNER MIx,s FIND1Ne.

Coroner Mix has made his formal finding concerning the death of Charles A. Edwards. He adheres to the suicide theory. Those who expected or wanted him to do something else should re- member that he is a careful, consci- entious man, sworn to do his duty; that he believes he has done it; that he has had much experience. in such inquiries; that nobody has had as good an opportunity to know and judge the obtainable facts as he has; and that he may be right in his judgment Of course he may not be, but many of those who say he isn't are not talking with any more knowledge than zeal, and they may be wrong. Probably they are as likely to be wrong as Coroner Mix is.
 It is pity that there is such a case, and 1t is pity that it isn't clearer. Perhaps 1t may never be wholly clear. If not it will have to be accepted as it is. and regretted as it is.

NOT ALL ON ONE SIDE.

It is generally believed that automo- bilists are careless enough in their use of the roads, and automobilists. we suppose, generally believe that other folks are careless enough about keep ing out of their way. A French auto mobilist took a notion that he would see and record the dangers met by him on the road during trip of 1000 miles. Some of the dangers mentioned by him are these: Drivers who refused to move out Of the way, 51; on the wrong side of the road, 35; not holding reins, 12; resting their horses at dangerous turn ings, 2; walking behind vehicles, is.
 Doubtless this indicates a general condition. It will be necessary for a long while yet for automobilists to be careful about other folks performances as well as their own. Users of the road who are not automobilists have got in- to habits which it is hard to change, and some of them don't think they ought to have to be extra careful on account of the new fiery chariots.

Cat Bad Bign; Pig Considered

Cat Bad gBigni Pig Considered to Hfing Good Luck
 While seFeral rivermen and others were seated in the office of the Pitts burg and Cincinnati Packet Line the other day the superstitions of river men came up. In the party were sev- eral' who were unacquainted with the legends of the river, and it devolved upon Capt. Henderson and Capt, Pen nywit to relate some of the happen ings of the older days.
 One of the most surprising things brought opt was the fact that the general run of steamboat men object to having a boat with name starting with either Jan M. or an O. It is claim ed that boat with a name starting with either one of these letter always comes to a violent end. Several in- stances are given where boats bearing thi supposed hoodoo have either been sunk or burned. The Molly Ebert, Ollie Neville, Mary Irwin, Major An derson al burned up and the Missouri and the Ohio sank. All of these boats were known to local men and ran on the Ohio and Mississippi
 The case of the Mary Irwin also car rled out another hoodoo of the river men. It is believed that when the rats desert ship there is danger ahead, On summer afternoon in 1887 the Mary Irwin tied up at the Cincinnati Wharf. Soon after it was noticed that teh rats were leaving her in droves Carpenters working about the hold of the boat amused themselves by throw ing large pieces of wood at the rodents. The superstitious people on board at one predicted that something was eo- to happen, and sure enough, about the middle of the same night the Mary Irwin, with six other boats was destroy ed by fire, the Major Anderson being one of these. The fire was witnessed by Captain Pennsywit.
 cat going on board a vessel is con sldered a bad sign, and the only way to get rid of the hoodoo is to throw the by it's tail from the port side of the ves- sel Throwing 1t from the starboard side will have no effect whatever.
 Believers in hoodoos greet with de- light the entrance of a pig. There are a number of boats on which on which the crews have their pet pigs, and these are supposed to be the best bearers of good luck In the world. After few week s training it is claimed, they have more sense than dog, and when the gang plank is lowered at a land- ing they are the first to run on shore and are never left behind. as they know the minute the ropes are going to be let loose,
 A boat is never launched on Friday, nor is one purchased on the same day. A business deal is never made on Fri day that can be put off. It is bad luck to start new boat on Friday. An Illustration of one of these beliefs was shown in this city few weeks ago, when firm was contracting for the purchase of a ularge steamer The deal was just about to be closed when

LIN USUAL.

It is more blessed to give than to re- ceive, but perhaps as things now are, giving can be overdone. Perhaps ben evolent men or women shouldn't give themselves into poverty, though we suppose there might be a good argu- ment made in favor of their doing it. If anybody wants to argue the ques- ton the case of Mrs Jesse Jameson of Shelbyville, Indiana, will furnish a basis. Finding herself unable to re- fuse money when asked from her for charitable and benevolent institutions. Mrs. Jameson presented herself before Judge Sparks and asked that guard ian be appointed to take care of the fortune left. to her by her husband. and suggested Dr. Edward Rowls, Presid- ing Elder of the Southern Indiana Methodist Episcopal Church, as the ap- pointee. After listening to her story Juage sparks granted her petition. Mrs. Jameson, who is sixty-eight years old, has always been known as kind- hearted woman, who would never re- fuse to subscribe money for charita- ble and benevolent institutions Little by little her cash was slipping away, and she finally realized that if she con- tinued her generosity she would soon have to depend upon charity herself.
 There are not many people so benev- olent that they need guardian to pre- vent themselves from impoverlshing themselves by giving, but there are many people who ought to have a guardian to restrict their foolish and selfish spending of their money.

AN INTERVENING PLAN.

That is an interesting plan which has
 been made for the reeendowment of the French clergy. A society has been formed
 known as Loeuvre de France which is
 practically branch organization of an
 English company. The directorshin of
 the latter includes a certain number of
 Frenchmen like the Due de Tnvnes
 and Comte Jacques Waru, and the cor responding French organization has A certain number of directors chosen
 from the English board The money collected by the Oeuvre de France is to
 be handed over for safekeeping to tbe English institution. The plan is to in- sure the lives Of a certain number of priests for sums of which the interest eventually will provide the clergy with regular salaries. A pamphlet ex1Iain- ing the aims of the English corporation IS now in circulation among Roman Catholic capitalists. It professes a cer- tain distrust of the stability of French securities. Among other things 1t says. Tt is not in France that Catholics can lay up the treasure of their public worship. We have wished to place our selves under the protection and liberal aegis of a great Power We have wish ed to make society embracing all the and all the parishes, and to centralize in a single and common treasure all the resources O. Catholic munificence. This capital will be ac- in the largest banks in Eng land in the hands of the cleverest and most upright financiers under the con- trol of jurisconsults and bishops. It will yield immediately an annual bud get of thirty-five million, and, after fif- teen years, an annual sum of eighty l millions assured for all time."

A Swiss life insurance company has taken action which indicates that "temperanc6" has money value It has undertaken to insure members of a temperance society composed of rail- way employees for 4 per cent. less than members who are not members of it. For some time past a Swiss accident insurance company has given total abstainers 8 reduction of 10 per cent. in insurance rates. So well satisfied is the company with results that after January 1, 1908, 1t will make the reduc- tion to total abstainers 15 per cent.
