Napoleon Was Fond of Solitaire.

Napoleon had hobby. This was
no less than the game Of solitaire
When great events impended he
would spend hours matching the
cards, according to some of those who
were privy to his councils,
There is story that on the night
before the crossing Of Beresina he sat
up till dawn in a futile effort to win
the fifty-two points, When he could
not prevail over the bits of paste

CERTAIN BLESSINGS NOT TO Be
OVERLOOKED

Being thankful for the form OF
government under w"ic,: we Amer
leans live, considering what we have
enjoyed under it, is surely an i'm
perative obligation.
The American Bar Association
through a committee has endeavored
to give prominence and make sug-
sestions Of certain things which in
thankfulnss we should not overlook.
Washington in his first Thanksgiv-
ing proclamation included among
that for which we should render
thanks "for the great degree of tran
guilty, union, and plenty, which we
have since enjoyed; for the peaceable
and rational manner in which we
have been enabled to establish con-
situations of government for our
safety and happiness, and particu-
larly the national one now latelv in
stituted; for the civil and religious
liberty with which we are blessed. =
="
The committee suggests that we be
thankful "that we belong to a race
whose outstanding characteristic is a
genius for self government" ''for the
rare men who launch ed our Amer
lean form of governn ent," that our
American form of government was
fixed by written, basic law. the
Constitution of the United States,
and "for the opportunities and duties
Of American citizenship"

Editorial Comment
No "Trent Case" Here

>Soston Transcript
In considering the case Of the seiz-
ure outside the three-mile limit of
the rum schooner" Tomako, report
cd to be OF British registry, one is
reminded of the reasoning and the
action OF Chief Red Jacket when the
lawyers were arguing the case of the
Seneca tribe against the government.
Drawing small ring on the ground,
the Indian said, This is the circle of
my knowledge Of the law" Then he
drew another and much larger ring
around the first. "This," he said, rs
the circle Of the lawyers knowledge"
And then, pointing to the space all
about, he said, And outside of that
circle l know as much as the law
yers." In the settlement of such a
dispute as that over the Tomako, we
are not only outside the three mile
limit but we are on ground where
no settled or thoroughly agreed for
mula of practice prevails. Interna-
tional la + is an excellent thing, and
observance Of 1t among the nations
is highly desirable, but its interpre-
tation always depends a great deal
on what the other fellow is going to
do. The British and other foreign
nations thought they were resting on
thSSA h&SA0AAoA aWp Va CT ANdSk lHlCGc
rational usage which had gained
the force of law, when they insisted
that the locked holds of their ships
were foreign territory for the purpose
OF storing their supplies of liquors
when the ships were in American
ports. Our supreme court told them
that theix idea of the law was all
wrong. and that their liquors were as
liable to seizure on tl;eir ships as If
they we're on the wharf. If Honduras
or Costa Rica had made this claim
the foreign governments concerned
would have over-ridden 1t without
the slightest hesitation. But the
judgment of the sur RENE Court of
the United States was quite another
thing. 1t was respected.
Very likely it will be much the
sane way with the Tomako seizure.
Obviously it is vain 20 suppose that
a treaty authorizing our rum cruis-
ers to overhaul vessels outside the
three-rlile limit is a valid ground for
procedure before 1t has been signed.
Seizure must rest on the fact that the
vessel had positively been landing
liquor on our coast; that she was
demonstrably engaged in an illegal
traffic: and it is at least alleged
that she practically fired with ma
chine guns on a boarding party from
the revenue cruiser Seneca. There
are various other points which favor
the American case with regard to
this ship. The TomaKo may be an
American ship, after all; she was
that formerly, and it may be difficult
for her owner to prove that her
British registration is regular and
faultless With one thing or another,
the British authorities have an ex-
cellent opportunity to look at the
proceeding very much as the United
States authorities look at 1t.
At all events, we need not look for
another Trent case, for which the
United States. which was then In
soretnational crisis, had to apologize
and make restitution, as the result OF
the seizure.
