No one need 90 complain on the
score OF variety in the woods used in
walking canes, says q contemporary.
About everything procurable and at
all suitable has been pressed into
service. Most OF the woods are from
foreign chimes. Among the con
spicuous sorts are the whangee sticks.
They are Chinese products, and are
priced for the lrreguiarity Of their
joints. The orange and lemon sticks
are always more or less fashionable.
We get them from the West
Indies and Florida. The orange
has a beautiful green bark
and good looking markings which
ran the length OF the cane. The
lemon il roagher. and has prominent
knots at regular Intervals. Algeria
supplies ns with myrtle sticks. which
are carried by those who admire odd
effects. Other imported sticks are
ebony palmetto. rosewood, thorn cac-
tuz, HARDWOOD. partridge and lots oi
other woods whose names are already
we'll known and need not he repeated
here. A peculiar stick we get from
species ~ palm grown in borneo, and
Is called ralah but the most celebrated
OF all canes II maiaeea. IL comes from
a species of calamus, q slender growing
palm. The stranEest part of IL all Is

a Woman Crssed by the Exhorta-
tioas of seventh Day Adventists.


The seyenth-Day Adventists have
been conducting a camp meeting here
for two weeks. and, notwithstanding
the hot weather, have been preaching
a much hotter future for those who re-
ieet the seventh day. Their meetings
have been attended by large numbers,
and the excitement wrought up has
been intense. Mrs. Frank Burt,
prominent member OF the Methodist
church. was seized with the "power"
a. one Of these meetings
and has since become raw
ing maniac. She bewails the
loss of her soul. and has so frequently
threatened To commit suide that it has
been necessary 10 take her TO an asy-
lum. Other converts so roaring
through the streets warning the peo-
pie OF the wrath to Genre, aud pointing
to the recent floods as evidence that
the Walls are being emptied out. There
Ii much feeling among other Christian
sects against the Adyentists. Rev. X.
l.. Hewson, of the Methodist Epis-
eopai church, from hts pulpit de
nounced the proseiyting preachers as
''basi lot, and some of the Method
ist Iaity are even more threatening In
their language. At the same time they
continue, and many conversions are
resulting. The Methodi-ts will open
an opposition camp-meeting here next
week

The E,nel Tower.

The business of the Elffel tower
turns ont to be immense. NJ. Eitsel
calculated that when everything was
in working order the gate money
would be 5000 day. Since the lifts
have been in operation he is thought
TO have averaged more than this. 1t
costs franc 10 enter the tower, two
francs to get up in the lift TO the sec
ond floor and four francs to the top.
On any one of the ordinary fuil-price
days more than 20,000 people have
paid admission. and, with the in
creased prices for those using the eie-
vaior, the entire receipts exceed
$4,000. The original cost of the Eiffel
tower, all included. was little less
than 81 100000. The proprietor has to
keep 1t in repair and hand over one
fourth OF his gate money to the exhi-
bition. 1t is estimated that il will be
half paid for when the exhibition
closes, and then it will remain GER
tainly three years more and perhaps
ten
