This is a phrase not uncommonly
met with. 1t usually provokes an

chemist can analyze 1t and tell its

the matter assumes another aspect.
The chemist has gotten it down
very fine. One m~olecule, so he in

of six atoms Of carbon, twelve of
hydrogen and two of oxygen-in
chemical parlance just C6-H12-O2.
Did anybody say, Phew!
What Is this odor OF %sanetity, any
way? Why, holy men and women
of olden time were supposed to ex-
hale It; In fact, it emanated from
every part of them. This is not so
surprising, or at least that some
thing should emanate from them is
not so surprising, when We recall
that manyTof them would go for
months, il not years, at a time,
without so much as washing any
part of their bodies. But lest it be
considered mean to suggest such q
source for the odor. let US hasten to
say that the odor was declared to be
a family sweet one-lfke that of bu-
lyric acid, so says our friend the
chemist. At amy rate, the odor,
sweet or otherwise, was presumably
buried. with the saint.

BACK TO ITALY
Secretary Knox Grants
Request for Extradition.

his wife last June, put her body In a
trunk and threw it into Lake Como,
viii be sem to Italy TO be tried. Charl-
ton ia IN jail at Hoboken. The laws
of Italy forbid capital punishment,
The announcement that the Unites
States will honor~the requisitlon of the
Italian government came as a decided
surprise, the general impression having
been that this government would de-
cline to.sarrender> Charlton because of
the construction which the Italian gov
eminent has placed on the extradition
treaty between the two countries.
In the event of the state department
having refused the reQuisitlon Chari-
ton, although a self confessed muir
derer, would have walked out a free
man,, hecause.t the United States courts
have no jurisdiction to try the case.
Italy Doesn't Surrender Americans.
In the Charlton case a precedent is
established for the operation of the
extradition treaty SO far as it affects
American citizens. The treaty pro
vides that each government shall sur
render persons fugitive from the one
and found in the other, but Italy has
refused to surrender to the United
States italian subjects who were fugi
tives from justice.
Secretary Knox points cut that the
United States, while consistently con
tending that the Italian Interpretation
Of the treaty was not u proper one, has
not treated the practice Of the italian
| government as q breach Of the con
tract requiring Its abrogation and has
not taken any step looking toward alb
rogation.
The Italian government made formal
demand for Ch8rlton's extradition July
| 30, about a month after he had landed
at Hoboken and walked into the arms
Of the waiting detectives. The extra
dition magistrate committed him fol-
surrender to the italian government
