The EcceDtricities Of Collectors.

| M. Maze -Sencier, the founder of the
we'll known Ceramic Museum at St. Eli
enne. has recently written very useful
and entertaining book, which he has en-
titled lie Licre DeS COllecti0nneurs, and
which was published few days ago in
Paris.
The work is concise guide for anna
tours of china, faience, furniture, glass,
plate, tapestry, paintings, books. bind
ings. miniatures, fans, arms, shoes, and
relics of all kinds, but it is chiefly inter-
esting on account Of the vast mass of in
formation that it contains about distingu-
ished collectors and their eccentricities.
M. Maze-Sencier mentions one lady who
collects nothing but knitting and crochet
needles. and another, Nine. Jubinal de
Saint Aubin. who has brought together
many hundreds of corset busks, some of
which are magnifcently engraved. She
has busks that belonged to Marie Antoin-
cite, the Chevalier d'Eon, Nine de Stael,
the Empress Josephine. and Queen
Christina, of Sweden, and several are
made of the precious metals, and are even
set with jewels.
Baron Perignon has vast collection of
buttons, among which are numerous speci-
mems bearing portraits of men and women
who played leading parts in the French
Revolution.
A second enthusiast pays high prices
for old gloves. and has thus managed to
procure personal relics of all the great
| beauties of the last two centuries and a
half.
A third collects wigs. He bought for
two hundred guineas one which had been
worn by Sterne. and thought himself for
tunate in obtaining very dirty one of
Emmanuel Rants for two hundred francs.
The late Lord Beaconsfeld had a fine
collection of pipes, and collections OF hats,
walking-stcks. snuff boxes, watches and
| clothes of the Channel.
A very extraordinary collection is that
of M. de Ferrari. Ae has spent upwards
of 100000 in ACQUIRING old postage stamps
of all nations, and his collection now fills
large room. 1t requires the continual
| services OF two librarians to arrange and
catalogue the hundreds of thousands of
| specimens which N. de Ferrari has pro-
cured from every part of the world dur
ing the last twenty-five years, and this
Jealous timbromaniac is still adding to
his treasures at cost to himself of several
thousand pounds per annum. Of some
what more renumerative nature as a
mania, which, according to the Rei.hs
O6ertechtschnle, has lately become popu-
lar in economical Germany.
People there collect old and faded pho
tographs. which are purchased by refners
for the sake of the silver which they con-
tain. We do not know how long it would
take an energetic man to get together five
shillings' worth of cast-away cartes-de-
| Uisitr. but in this country he would pro-
badly earn the money with more speed if
he borrowed broom and swept cross
| ing.

all he wants to do to 20 mile minute.
but he can do il when necessary. His or
binary every day style of getting along
over the country gets him from place to
place at the rate Of forty-6ve miles an
hour. The black duck is about an even
match for the mallard, and the pin
tail. widgeon and wood duck can't do
much better. The redhead can sail
along with ease and cover his ninety miles
an hour as long as he feels inclined to.
The blue winged teal and its handsome
cousin. the green winged teal. could ny
side by side for hundred miles and make
the distance neck and neck, for one can
fiy inst as fast as the other, and to 60 1OG
miles an hour is no hard task for either OF
them. The gadwale-you don't know
what a gadwale is, I'll bet! | thought
not. Well. it is q duck that doesn't get
East very often, but is well known in the
West. 1t is something like mallard,
only harder to shoot, because it is not so
unsuspecting as the mallard. The CAD
vale is something of a daisy on the fly.
too, and will win money for you every
time if you bet it can make its ninety
miles an hour.
MAY be you wouldn't think that a
goose could almost double discount in the
fastest train that runs on our railroads,
but it can every time. 1t has a big. heavy
body to carry. but it manages to glide
from one feeding ground to another with
a suddenness that is a caution to wing
shots. To see cloud of honkers moving
along, so high that they seem to be scrap
ing their backs against the sky, you'd
never believe they were travelling between
eighty and one hundred miles an hour.
but they are. The wild goose never has
any time to fool away, and his gait is al
ways business one.
1.-The broadbill duck is the only wild
fowl that can push the canvasback on the
wing. Let the broadbill and canvas-back
each do his best for an hour, and the
broadbill would only come out about ten
miles behind A hundred and ten miles
an hour can be done by the broadbill. and
he consequently. makes mark for shot
gun that greenhorn wouldn't hit once in
twenty seven years.

Ducks.

i've held my watch on about everv
kind OF wild duck there is" said an old
time wild.fowl hunter. land | can tell lust
about to the sixty-third part of dot. how
much space any one of 'em can get over
in an hour. There's no railroad train on
the continent that can hold candle to one
side of the slowest duck that flies
The canvas-back can distance the
whole duck family. if it lays itself out to
do it. When the canvas back is out TAX
ing things easy. enjoying little run
around the block. as it were. it logs
through the air at the rate of so miles an
hour. If it has business somewhere and
has to get there, it puts two miles behind
it every minute it keeps its wings tapping
and does it as easy as you or would step
into Fritz's and call for beer II YOU
don't believe it, just fire square at the
leader in string of canvas backs that
are out on business cruise, sometime
when you get the chance. Duck shot
travels pretty quick. but if your
charges bring down any one of these ducks
at all. I'll blow you off to a pair of the
best there is in the market, with trim.
mings and all. if it isn't the fifth or sixth
one back from the leader that drops. If
you have the taintest idea that you will
bring the leader down, you must aim at
space not less than ten feet ahead of him.
Then he'll run plump against your shot.
When he drops. you will find him a quar-
ter of . mile or 30 away.
