VALUABLE WALKING STICKS
Interesting Facts About Some High-Priced
Canes.
(From Tit-Bits)

In a hairdresser's window at the
health resort of La Bourboule, some lit
tie time ago. an ugly, ungainly cudgel
worth about sixpence was displayed,
together with the notice, "a stick of
genuine olive wood from Jerusalem. 1t
formerly belonged TO Pontius PLATE in
the year q of our era Price, 1000
francs. Any one DESTROYS of vast
ing a little time, might have asked the
vendor for proofs of his veracity, but
We, having duly recorded the existence
of this remarkable stick, will pass on
is, to the best Of our belief, the most
valuable stick e8tant
1t was formerly the practice of physi-
clans, as old prints prove, to carry
canes, in the hollow heads of which
some disinfectant was placed, which the
doctor smelled through perforations in
the geld top; DIR. Hale's famous staff,
however, boasts of head containing a
fine chronometer and is, with it's Jew
eled ornaments, worth about $500
1t is somewhat of a coincidence that
two of her majesty's most famous
walking sticks should be Intimately
connected with the Stuart regime but
such is the case. The staff Of the stick
she habitually uses, we learn. is of
and presented to Charles II by. a IoyaI
subject at Worcester, the wood being
culled from a branch Of the famous
tree whose leafy boughs gave the wan
dering king shelter from the Crorn
Welllan soldiery. The original head of
gold was removed some time ago and
replaced by an ornament taken from
serlngapatam at the fall of that city,
IN order to give her majesty a better
grip.
The Prince of Wales, who possesses
no fewer than 172 walking sticks, is OBJ
viously also a collector, but we very
much doubt whether he possesses a
more interesting specimen than that
purchased at the Culloden sale by her
majesty the queen In July, 1897. The
SUCK IN question was made of hazel
wood, and the head was fashioned SO
as to represent Wisdom and Folly, but
the special interest II possesses is the
fact that 1t was once the property of
Bonnie Prince Charlie" Her majesty
became It's owner by an outlay of ESQ.
A stick Of more than ordinary in
terest is one fashioned from an oar be-
longing to one OF the most famous yes

THE sKUNK's DEFENSE.
(From Forest and stream,)

To my mind there is not more in
teresting animal in America than the
skunk, certainly none more distinctive.
The article by Prof. Rhoads, Gross
fires from skunk's battery" re-
minded me of a case so much in point
that / could not refrain from writing
it up for the Forest and Stream. 1t
will be remembered that it was the
woodsman's contention that the skunk
was powerless when his flag was low
cred, and that it could be killed with
impunity by holding the tail down and
striking it with a club. The expert
ments did not turn out well. and the
naturalist suffered for his wanting to
see the wheels go round.
In 1897, in September, at a farm
house in the Levels, a polecat was
discovered in the dairy, or, as we say,
springhouse. This springhouse was full
Of milk, butter and all kinds of the
most precious supplies for the winter.
The polecat was acting like a gentle
man, and the lady of the manor who
found him there treated him as such.
Like Poe's raven, his presence was the
one disturbing feature, for if he should
break loose the damage would be ir-
reparable. The animal was left in un
disturbed possession until the head of
the household appeared. He was a
good woodsman and knew of the habits
or the skunk. BY very gradual APP
proach, he grasped the tail unflung and
gently led 1t forth by the tail, holding
II down, and Drained the animal with
club when it was a sufficient distance
away, and the springhouse was safe.
There was a slight discharge of the Sc
erection. This certainly is practical

RITUALISM

is FAIRLY ON

For the second time in thirty years
a wave Of religious excitement is
sweeping over England. Not since
Gladstone disestablished the Episcopal
Church in Ireland has the popular feel
ing of Britain been aroused so bitterly
by that most deplorable of all issues,
sectarian hate, as it is at the present
time. Thirty years ago, when Exeter
Hall used to be crowded by cheering
thousands as inhammatory orators

Exeter Hall is crowded nightly by

Citations of the speakers are not now
levelled against the Roman Catholics,
the broadsides are being directed
against the forces of Ritualism, which
have gained enormously in strength
within the pale of the Episcopal Church
in the past 20 years.
1t is difficult for any person who has
not travelled in England during recent
years, to form an adequate idea Of the
rate at which ritualism or high church
ism has grown among the adherents of
the Episcopal Church. In most, if not
all, the important towns and cities, one
can find imposing Protestant Epsco-
pal churches with interiors richly or
namented with paintings and statuary
usually looked for only in Catholic
churches. In those churches will be
found the altar, the tabernacle, the
lighted candles, the sanctuary lamp;
around the walls are hung the sta.

LAMBERTS TWO FAMILIES.
The Last Will of a Guatemalan
Divides His Estate Among Them.

The last will and testament of Walter
Lambert. at one time wealthy merchant
in Guatemala. was filed yesterday for pro-
bate and the fact that the deceased lived
a dual life is made manifest by it's pro-
visions. In the will Lambert sets forth
that. at the time the will was executed,
ne had a wife. Dora Edith Elinor Lam
bert, residing in Guatemala, by whom he
had no children. After making this state
ment the testator went on TO relate that
ne had two sons. Ellison Garner and Wal
ter Corelli Lambert, aged and 3 years,
who are the children of Josephini Marini,
whom he formally recognizes as worthy
of mention in his testament.
The will provides that his estate shall
be divided in equal shares between his
wife, his children and their mother. In
addition to the above mentioned bequests
the deceased prays for the distribution
between his children and their mother,
Dora D., Bascombe Hodgson and Jose L.
Hodgson relatives of his wife. His wife
is not 10 share in his insurance policy
as the testator states that he has set
aside another policy for $4,000 for his
wife's benefit. Ii is expected that William
F. Lambert, decedent's brother, will in
stitute proceedings to break the will.
