The duke consulted with Gov ernor General Head and refused te per nit this distinction. At Kingston on Orange demonstration was prepared and che royal party did not land from the steamer. The OI8ngamon chartered anothor steamer and pursued the prince to Brockton but again he was not al lowed to go on shore. At CobuEg a par ty of 50 Canadian gentlemen took the horses from his carriag0 and drew him through tho pretty hamlet A5 Toronto the mayor apologized for the display of Orange flags The prince was ho0tod and hissed when he attended church and serious riots were feared
 All trouble was averted. however, by the good humor of the prince him self He waa taking drive with the duke, and the Orangemen hastily hung a banner across the road SO that the roy al party had to drive under it.

That plonty of genuine cases of klep tomania undoubtedly exists well known to both legal and medical exports. There was, for instance, the case of Il not very long deoeasod noblemon who ffequent- ly pocketed his hostess spoons at a din. ner party, and whose pockets were in- yariably searched by his man on his re- turn, with view to prompt restitution.
 In another case q lady who was quite rational npon other points WAS diseov- cred to have 15 bags concealed about her, in which were over 1. 100 little ar ticles which she had stolen and conceal cd, although nearly every one was abso- lutoly worthless. A clergyman has been known to steal Bibles under the impress sion that he was thereby propagating tho gospel Another gentleman, sane in other respects, invariably stole the tow els from any hotel ho stopped at while travelling and returned them when he got homo, and, oddost of all. there has boer . case of a man who would never eat food which he had net stolen Ho was man of means, and his personal attendant used 10 hide hismoals, so that he might think he himself had stolen them, in order to induce him to eat.- Lady s Pictorial

At Stafford Ehere id an old charity for providing poor people with pIums for their Christmas buildings. sd kind hearted man at BuInHam left sum sufficient to provide the inmates of the poofhouse of the pa.iHh with Christi mas dinner, followed by U proper supply of ale, tobacco and snuff
 At Prince Risborougb, in Bueking hamshira, there was q very singular Christmas usage Up to about 1913 3 bull, a boar, | sack of " heat and 8 sack of malt were given away to the poor by the ford of tho mauor at about o'clock every Christmas morning This practice was then discontinued, and for about five or six years beef and mutton were distributed in plaoe of the above articles. MT Grubb-fit nnme for tho dispenser of what Rittnastur Dugald Dalgutty would call the pr0yond of the par sonago house, tho then lord of tho man. or, whose father first stepped tho above customary distribution, produced to the commissioners of charities q Gaso which his father had laid he}oIa jastic2s rel ati9e 10 ttia custom. with viUW of 0b taining the opinion of counsel as to whether it could be sustained as a GUS tom at common law, and whether he should be subject to legal process if he omitted b make the distribution.
 Jt appears from tho document that the custom had then prevailed for 9 considerable number of years; that it was mentioned in the Ieaal bisterios, but that It's origin Has lost in ohseurity. Tie practice, while it lasted, seems to have been productive of much intozica- tion and riot. The poor aro said to have paTaded the town during the whole night preceding the distribution with an incossant elam0r, oiieetUally banjsh- Ing all Tapose On th0 following morn ing they marched in crowds to MT Grubb's house. and those assemblies of ten comprised many strangers as well as pari8hionors On the doors being opened they all rushed to the feast prepared for them with SO little deeerum and for bearancc that often in their zeal for priority they inflicted wounds on one another with their knives. Tho whole remaining portion Of Christmas day, # is stated. was Bpenb by many of them iB the public houses. The justice bafor whom the matter Has heard was of the opinion that this custom Was not susz tainablo IS common law rightl and the charity commissioners reported that they had received Ho sufficient evidence that the custom could be considered as 8 charitable donation the continuance of which could he enforced. .-seleeted
