for the next three years at last, Cole
is tied To a three-year contract, hav-
ing signed the papers in President
Murphy's office before getting out
of town. There is nothing re-
markable i'm the signing of Cole, for
he is one of the best twirlers on the

81 900 will likely never be known, but
the smile on Coles face as he wended

SUP[RSTITIONS
KING GEORGE VERY ANXIOUS TO
AVOID ANY UNUSUAL INCL
DENT IN coNNE NEcTIoN
WITH CORONATION.

London, Oct 29.-King George is
particularly anxious that his corona
tion ceremonies next June should be
free from any untoward incident which
might be construed as ominous. This
is not alone because he himself like
all members of his house, is imbued
with a certain amount of superstition,
but il is likewise because he is thor
oughly aware that popular confidence
in himself and his reign will be shaken
i'm the event OF any occurrence at the
coronation which could be construed
as portending evil
The coronation of Queen Victoria
and King Edward were remarkably
free from anything that could DE
looked upon by the people as a bad
omen, though the fact that tEe corona
tion OF King Edward had to be post
poned on account OF the illness with
which the monarch was suddenly
stricken led many persons to predict
that his reign would be short
At the coronation OF George w, the

hands. When George III. was installed
on the throne, Lord Effingham, mas
ter of ceremonies, forgot to provide
the sword of state and the chair and
canopy for the banquet. At the coro-
nation of George III. the Dean of West
minister forgot the chalice and paten,
and at the coronation of the Inflated
King James |. the communion service
was omitted.
At the coronation of Charles l. the
wing of the dove on Edward the Con-
fessor's sceptor was broken off acci-
dentally. And the Bishop of Carlisle
in preaching the coronation sermon,
selected as his text, Il will give thee
crown of life" a text which put
everybody in mind of the funeral SER
vice. i'm which is so frequently figures.
1t may be remembered that King
Charles lost his head on the scaffold.
1t is also well to remember. in read
ing of these gloomy prophecies OF
doom, that such incidents are seldom
thought of until an untoward incident
has occurred. Then the superstitious
minds seek some occurrence to serve
the purpose of an omen, thing not
hard to find. since almost every occa-
sion is attended by some unfortunate
accident.
