PRINTING OF BIBLE is
A ROYAL MONOPOLY
Rig'4t to Issue License to Publish
Vested in King.

London, Eng, May 25.-King George
by virtue Of his accession to the
crown of England, has become in
vested like all his predecessors On
the throne since the reign of James T..
with the monopoly of printing the
so-called Authorized Version" of the
Bible, and the Book of Common
Prayer, " that is to say the liturgy.
Licenses are granted in his name to
the Oxford and Cambridge University
presses and to certain societies suca
as the British and Foreign Bible So
cie.y, to print and publish the Bible
and the prayer book. But this can
only be done with his permission,
and were he to will it, he could by
a mere decree put a stop to the print
ing Of every Anglican Bible and pray
er book in the United Kingdom.
Under ordinary circumstances copy
right privileges do not extend be-
yond AZ years, or the life of the
author and seven years following,
whichever may be TIE longer. But
here is a copyright which has existed
To- centuries, and its continuity is
best explained by the fiction that the
sovereign never dies, and that the
so-caned demise of the crown" mere
ly consists of the transfer of the
royal authority from one person to
another.
Thus any firm of publishers or in
dividuals taking upon themselves OF
himself to print and issue a Bible or
Liturgy of the Church of England,
without having duly obtained the sane
ton Of the crown would be liable to
ali the pains and penalties provided
for the infraction of the copyright
laws.
King George has also become en-
dowed witE' the monopoly Of printing
all the acts of parliament, proclama-
tons and orders of councl-that is
to say, DEGREES af the priyy council
and this right he farms out to. a
couple Of publishers, who are known
as "the kings printers"

"THE SUIT CASE MYSTERY"


A young craftsman loses his position
by reason of the fact that a prolonged
strike has closed down the works in
which he has been employed. He IS
on his return home when, in crossing
a busy street he is struck by an auto
mobile in which is the assistant pay
master of large contracting concern
who is carrying a suit case full of
money with which to pay off the men
employed in the construction of large
building. The sudden stoppage of the
automobile throws the suit case con-
tanning the money in close proximity
to the young draftsman's. Strangely
enough the two cases are of exactly
the same pattern and in the confusion
attendant upon the accident one IS mis-
taken for the other, the young pay
master picking up the draftman's suie
case and vice versa. When each
reaches his destination the mistake is
discovered, to the amazement of one
and the dismaY of the other.
We see in the pictIre the result Of
this complication the suspicion
cast upon the Young paymaster aud
also in the struggle which goes on in
the mind of tie nan who has beech. e
II. possesses uf the money. The lat
ter, whose widowed mother is living
in such extreme poverty that she is
on. the verge of pawning her wedding
ring and some other pieces of jeyelry
to purchase the necessities of life, is
strongly tempted to keep what has fall
len into his hands, but his mothers
counsel prevails and he seeks out the
owner of the money. Bp peculiar CO.
incidence the pretty sister of the as
sistant paymaster had met the drafts,
man just after the accident and helped
bind his wounded hand. When he re-
turns the bag to the police station they
meet again, and finally, when the con-
tractor to whom the money belonged,
and who had recognized in the young
mans mother the widow of former
friends of his younger days, rewards
our young friend by giving him a good
position, he meets her frequently, the
result being the usual happy ending.
While this S simple story, it is told
in novel and dramatic style. Here
and there bright comedy touches en-
liven the tale and the love interest cul-
inmates in very pretty scene. Mr..
Townsend has in this clever story
given the Edison players a splendid
vehicle for displaying their talents and
they do not miss a point, as the film
will prove.

MARRIAGE RINGS FOR

The latest type of jewelry novelty
