PLENTY OF COAL.

From the Herald Washington Blu reau comes the news which corrobo- rates the opinion here expressed some months ago, that there will be plenty of coal in New England this winter. "There is already in the New England states" says the dispatch, more of both anthracite and bituminous coal there than has been at the same time in several previous years. According ly the railroads will not be called on to met sharp increase in demand; the strike which seemed imminent has been settled; the mines are operating at high pitch, and the railroads are better equipped to deliver coal pro- duction than they have been for sew cral years"
 Added to this statement is the fact that the New Britain dealers have said the people of the city are pretty well stocked up now, and that there will be little trouble supplying the others.
 Well, all this looks good as far as the supply goes. Last winter we were anxious to get coal here. even if we had to pay big price. The pros pect of getting cold and not being able 10 go about our business in comfort was a disa greeable one. to say the least. The coal dealers here felt that the people would prefer having coal eksn if it cost more than having little H no coal. They patronized 'inde- pendents" and paid big price for their coal. So we had to pay good rrice. Credit was given the dealers for taking the oaance they did.

THE suswAys

The matter ef ownership of the subways in this city through which run carriers of electrical current has been much discussed one for many years. At one time. long ago. inc corporation counsel Of the city went 10 court 10 prevent private eom- psny from building one Of thee snh- ways.
 The Herald" disapproves public ownership of public utilities In most cases. Inefficient operation as rule results. In the matter of the owner ship Of these subways, however. there are two sides. both Of which should bo considered from all points Of view.
 At present tho city owns It's sub- ways. From them 1t receives rental that makes them more than self-sup- porting. Various departments of the city use them for their wires. No cor poration may build a subway. occn- pants of the subways, under the pres ent system, pay off the bonds, in rental, issued by the city for their construction. Were these suljways pri- vately owned. the departments of the city now using them or which might hereafter use them, would be at the mercy of the private owner of them at least to certain extent.
 The. water department in this city the bonds issued for it's use--do not need to be considered in the much dis cussed "bond limit of the city which we are nearing. The subways, also self-supporting quite probably, might well be placed in the same class as the water department. Bonds for subways might well not affect the bond limit of the city.
 While the custom of erecting poles remains there is a queer situation which will be corrected if wires arc run entirely underground and the city continues to own its subways. At pres ent a property owner may give per- mission to a corporation to erect a pole on his premises; the city has no such right. Thus it would be possible for the city streets to be cluttered with wires if property owners gave permis- sion for the erection of poles which would be held to carry with it per- mission to attach wires thereto.
 The matter comes up in this way at present. Certain companies, or a certain company, desires to build sub ways under streets that the city may pave subsequently,. The city would not care to have such subway con struction made before the pavement is laid. If a private concern is given authority to construct and own such subway, complications might arise when the street was paved that would be costly to the city.
 New Britain is well fortified in the matter of water. Great care should be taken before there is granted any right to private concerns to inter- fere with or own part of our streets underground, binding the hands of the city as, quite possibly this might do.

 Two attributes of this work stand out so strikingly as to make its read ing well worth the While of the stu dent of recent American history. In the first place the Suggestions for Further Readings giving as they do page references to selected portions of various works, are excellent; sec- ondly, and more important, MT.

 "A whimsical and enchanting tale of Irish folklore combining love, beauty, loyalty and war" THE LATE MATTIA PASCAL, by
 Luigi Pirandello.
 Tn its very quiet way, it is one of the most entertaining novels that has appeared for many and many a day. The plot--if plot there be-is whim- sical to a degree. At the same time it is not extravagant On the con- trary, the story is profoundly human, its humanity being the result of a keenly searching psychological and spiritual analysis. It is the temper ing of laughter with thought--and the vivification of philosophy with laugh ter--that makes The Late Mattia Pascal.'"
