bad. The trouble is that the bad have
 an enormous opportunity to do mischief and get away without being caught. If one is looking for 1t he can find al- most any day in the papers of this part of the country story of serious auto- mobile injury where the automobolist has escaped without being caught. And one looks in vain for many instances of the visiting of penalty on law violators, which is sufficient to deter those who can be governed only by fear As I understand it, a large part of our legal system is devoted to deterrlng others by fear.
 Now, our law to-day has just one easy point of enforcement and that is the speed limit. The speed can be de- ltermined, and if the automobilist is lyicted of his sin. The proposed law takes that away and uses the word reckless The old law also allows ] fine and punishment for reckless driv- ling. But 1t is almost impossible to en- 1 force the opinion of a legal official as to what is reckless and what is not. | It is. however, a comparatively simple thing to say that certain man went over mile or half mile of road at a greater speed than the law allows.
 Yet what is the attitude of your average automobile owner, and even the established automobile clubs, in re- spect to those town officials who try to enforce the law? The whole dispcsi- ton is to call them "grafters' and to speak of their efforts to enforce the the law as traps" It passes me why it is right to use such language in re- gard to the enforcement of the law when there IS no dispute of the fact. The fact is that he is breaking the law. The unpleasant fact is that he was caught. He tries to excuse him- self and discourage the zeal of officials by speaking of them as ''grafters" and their means as traps"
 The present law allows all the speed that can safely be allowed on the roads, If you are going to try to pre- serve the use of those roads for pedes- trians, for drivers of horses and for bicycle riders. The fact is that life and | limb are not safe In Connecticut either in the cities or in the towns; the pleas- ure of driving and walking has been | largely taken away, and it has be- come, particularly in the country towns, very serious and dangerous business to walk along the road in the niaht (for one must take to the road where there is no path). don't care lhow large fraction of the automobile owners are decent people; there is large enough fraction who are not to make 1t necessary, not to relax our laws, but to make them more strict; not to make it harder to enforce the flaws, but to make it easier; not to encourage those who already, have shown their lawlessness and their
 meanness, but to discourage them all
 we can, and make it easier for honest
 officials not only to fine them, but gei
 them in jail.
 I know that your desire is just whai lmine is, but I couldn't resist this pro, test against what seems to me false
 assumption. hope the good points O 1.-the new law will prevail, but that tn, absolutely necessary provision of ; speed limit will be maintained. ant that the Journal and Courier, witt

then not to have the Connecticut ex- hibit In addition to this there have been many ladies who have said they were now unwilling to do what they said they would, knowing the state of advancement of the fair and thinking that 1t would not be absolutely safe.
 Months had been spent in securing relics and heirlooms from all parts of the state. A most charming collection of representative Connecticut pieces had been gathered together. Among them was an antique embroidered bed spread (soft old colors on white linen) from Hon. John Chesters family of Wethersfield, and various pieces of sil- yer bearing the Chester arms: an eX- quisite silver salver of Rector Elisha Williams of Wethersfeld, engraved with the Williams arms, and the bro- caded wedding gown of Elizabeth Scott his second wife, whom he married in England; a solid silver .candlestiek, and embroidered vest hangings. brought with her from England to her Connec- ticut home in 1751; mirror of Elisha Williams, bearing a gilt eagle on a mahogany frame; a silver sugar bowl of Captain Aaron (and Mrs. Mary) Olmsted of East Harting; a syrup cup of the same set, and Lowestoff china, all bearing the monogram of A. M I. I. and the gold watch and Masonic gold fob the captain used 1S0 years ago.

COLONIAL DANES
 ABANDON JAMESTOWN Fear to Take Responsibility For Rare Connecticut
 Relics. AN OFFICIAL REPORT. His Formal Explanation of the Policy Determined
 Upon.

Hartford, May S1.--The following let ter has been sent out by Mrs. Emily S. G. Holeombe of the Connecticut Soci- ety of Colonial Danes, as chairman of it's committee on the loan exhibit of the society to all of the local danes, who have been planning to send ex- hibits of a historical nature to the Jamestown exposition. It announces the withdrawal of the local society from the exhibition at the fair:
 The building at the Jamestown ex- josition in which the Colonial Dames' loan exhibit was to be placed is not yet completed When these loans were so- licited, it was with the understanding and ready for the safe installation of this peculiarly valuable exhibit by April 15. The services of the employees of the state commission of Connecticut were generously. offered to aid in the proper placing of these articles.
 The Connecticut building having been completed and furnished in every detail, this help is no longer available. In view of the incomplete and general ly unsatisfactory condition of affairs. the committee of Colonial Danes has decided that there would be too great d risk in sending the valuable relics gathered together for the purposes of q fine display from Connecticut.
 Very generously have our citizens responded and the committee wishes to thank most sincerely all those who have so periodically and freely aided the effort and offered their priceless treasures for the honor of the state. While it is satisfaction to know that so many interesting and valuable arti- cles are preserved in the. families of Connecticut, it is with the greatest re- gret and only for prudential reasons that the committee feels compelled to withdraw the exhibit and return the loans to the owners.
 Emily s. G. Holcombe, Chairman Committee on Connecticut
 Loan Exhibit Of Colonial Danes So-
 ciety
 Hartford, May 2S.
 When seen about the matter Mrs. Holcombe said that the exhibits had been solicited by the society largely through her efforts and with the un- derstanding that she would pack the articles here herself, go down to the fair to see tha they were rightly dis played, and lock them up herself. As long ago as last December she had ar ranged to go to the fair on April 15, and she did so, but to find that the history and art building, a fireproof one In which the exhibits were to be placed, along with those of the other state societies of the Colonial Danes, was but yet hardly begun. Another trip on April 26 showed matters but little advanced so, she said, she had decided that she did not want to take the per- son responsibility of the many sacred

ARRESTED AFTER A YEAR. Law School Man Back to Ball Game
 Taken by Police.

The evil that men do during their col lege days sometimes lives after their denarture. So it was with John Lin- den Jennings, jf., of Syracuse, N. Y, Hennings was member of the class of 1906 at Yale law school 1t is alleged that last spring Hennings worked off on Liveryman Frank Palmer a worth less check for the. sum of $S5 to pay a livery bill. Hennings left town with out being caught.
 Saturday he yentured back and att tended the Yale-Princeton baseball game. About midnight Detective Dun lap perceived him in Crown street and placed him under arrest The two went to the Palmer stables and it is reported that Hennngs offered Palmer $20 to withdraw the charge, but the latter refused. He was held under $500 bonds.

Tn sermon preached at Battell chapel yesterday morning Rev. Henry Sloane Coffin of New York urged the students to put into practice those principles which will make 1t impossible for nations to go to war with each other, to substitute cooperation for competition in the business world, to preach the gospel from the pulpits and to do whatever work they are called to do with their whole heart. Rev MT, Coffin showed that low birth Is not a handicap and as the saviour of the world was the soniof the humble Joseph and Mary so others may rise to great heights though of humble birth.
