LEGENDS OF WAR
Many Strange Superstitions Are
Born on Battlefield.
GOLD COINS GOOD LUCK SIGNS

To Dream Of Autobus Considered Death
Token-Appesls to Have Currency
Sent to Bank Of France and Keep II
From Enemy Reduces Amount at
Front.
Paris.-The character Of the war has
allowed n number of legends and su.
perstitlons to be born and spread.
some of which can be traced and ex.
planned. while others remain obscure.
To dream Of an autobus has become
token of death. Apollinaire, the
poet, has found this superstition in
four different regiments and gives a
story of sergeant who succeeded In
averting the omen in the case Of cor.
poral who said he had dreamed Of an
autobus. How can that be-" the ser.
geant asked, when you have never
been to Paris or seen an autobusY
The corporal described the vision.
"That an autobusv' declared the SER
geant. why, that's one of those new
machines that the English are using
Don't let that worry you"
A regiment from the south has the
same belief about an automobile wagon
instead of an autObus and can quote
many examples of the truth of such
dreams.
Gold coins are a mascot in the front
lines, superstition not difficult to ex-
plain. 1t was at first believed that
wounded men on whom some gold was
found would be better looked after by
those who found them, and by degrees
the belief grew up, especially among
artillery, that gold coin was tails
man against being mutilated if they
were taken prisoners whether wounded
or not.
Apollinaire knew of a certain battery
which in May, 1915, had some $1,000
in gold among its men, thanks chiefly
to their commerce in rings, paper
knives and other souvenirs, made by
them from cartridge cases and alumi-
mum and sold to foot soldiers.
The governments appeals to have

not to let it fall into enemy hands in
case of capture have since reduced the
amount of gold at the front, but many
keep some coins as charm. Many men
sew coins touching one another in such
a way as to make u shield over the
heart.
A story that is believed in the ranks
shows how gold can attract the Ger
mans. A sergeant made a gold coli
glitter in the sun and some thirsty
German soldiers walked right up to thu
French trench, charmed by its dazzle
and were easily captured.
every man has his own particular
star" Lyons farm hand said to Apol
linaire, "but he must know it. A golt
coin is the only means to put you il
communication with your star, so tina
its protecting virtue can be exercised

AS a matter of fact he was seriously
wounded later.
