MSS SCHULTZ OF
CLEVELAND WRITES
TO HER FRIENDS

Miss Helena Schultz of Cleveland who
is on her way to Europe writes to her
friends through The Pilot from New
York as follows:
Il have now reached New York and
am waiting for the boat to sail so will,
before leaving my native country, write
you a letter in the paper which you all
read. | left Cleveland two weeks ago
and have been visiting with friends in
Milwaukee. From there | crossed the
lake to Ottowa Beach. | stopped at De-
troit sizing up the town and overlooked
the city from the roof of the highest
building there which is $50 feet high,
called the Majestic. 1t was beautiful
scene for miles around.
Il arrived at Niagara Falls Sunday
morning. After attending mass | went
to the falls taking in the views of the
Niagara river by rail, carriage and steps.
A large crowd of people were gathered
there. This is something worth seeing
and | thought that any one who has the
opportunity ought to take in this grand
work of nature. This is simply sublime.
| have visited the Pan-American exposi-
ton, which in fact was nothing new to
me as | have seen so much of that be-
fore. The buildings are fine, of diff
ferent colors from those of Chicago and
Omaha, which We're all white. They
are not as yet all complete, the men be-
ing hard at work finishing up.
II have been to see the st. Patrick 5
church, New York, which is the incest
and lagest church have ever seen. 1t
is built of granite and is simply imposing
Then / crossed the Brooklyn bridge to
visit friends from Stevens Point whom
/ hadn't seen for number of years.
This was quite home feeling. ! am
not expecting to meet any acquaintance
until shall return travelling through
the strange world. My boat The
Friesland" will sail this noon.

FROM GARRETT TO BASEMENT.
Large Display of Chrtstmas Goods at
Palafs RoyaI.

The season Of good cheer In on IN earnest
at the Palais Royal This great emporium
is stocked from basement to garnet with
goods that appeal particularly TO Christmas
shoppers. The possibly noticeable absence
OF toys this year is made UP with q vast
assortment OF dolls, books and pictures.
But, of course, there are toys in profusion,
for that is a necessary adjunct to Christ
mas time. The picture gallery on the
fourth floor will be an agreeable surprise
to those who do not expect to find merit
outside OF an art store. Here are to be
found from 50 to $50 pictures that may
well be classed as works Of art.
Books are to be found in such quantities
ana variety that every want may be sup
piled at prices ridiculously low. Without
dcuot the assortment OF dolls is one Of the
finest ever presented in Washington. The
jewelry department is particularly attrac-
tive. There is everything that might ap-
peal to persons desiring to make gifts. The
management OF the Palais Royal has striv-
en- TO supply presents that shall be appro-
pirate. Umbrellas that can be engraved
with initials or name, pocketbooks on which
name can be stamped or engraved. are in
good demand this year. and there is fine
assortment from which to select.
The basement floor is a revelation to pur-
chasers Bric-a-brac, clocks, cut glass. rich
china and a thousand and one attractions
for the home are displayed. On the second
moor are the finest of silks put up I'm waist
or dress patterns, in box with Christmas
card. Here, too, are rich comforts. blan-
kets and table linens suitable for presents
Furs. wrappers and other ready wear gar
ments are attractively displayed on the
third floor. The fourth floor is devoted to
furniture. and there is everything that
would go to beautify a home and make a
pleasurable holiday present
Lecture by Ernest Seton-Thompson.
There is probably no student Of natural
history in this country today who is as
charming in his writings and lectures as
Ernest Seton-Thompson. Children and
grown people alike unite In the expression
of appreciation of his stories of the wild
animals In his lectures he is unlike any
other speaker on a lyceum platform by
reason of the fresh, breezy manner in which
he presents his stores-for stories they are
told in a simple. straightforward manner,
without the slightest attempt at dramatic
effect, but which. none the less, transport
the hearers into the forests and the haunts
of wild animals and show them the joys of
hunting with the camera instead Of the
rifle
Mr.. Seton-Thompson is to lecture tomor-
row afternoon at the First Congregational
Church at 4:l5 o'clock for the benefit of
school children and others who cannot at
tend the evening lecture. His evening lee
ture at the same place at s o'clock will be
the second OF the star course of the Young
Mems Christian Association. Both of these
lectures will be beautifully illustrated by
stereopticon views. The lecture in the
afternoon will be entitled wild Animals
I Have Known" The lecture in the even
ing will be entitled The Personality OF
Wild Animals"

Gibraltar.

From the Ledger Monthly.
The incoming steamer anchors in the bay
half a mile from shore, passengers are
taken off in boats, and before entering the
city they pass a rigid inspection by the
police who ask a number of pertinent and
imperative questions. The name, nationality,
occupation and mission of the stranger in
Gibraltar are entered in book; he receives
a card which entities him to the hospital
ity Of the rock for twenty-four hours. II
he desires to stay longer, bond Of $50 for
good behavior will secure him immunity
from molestation for not more than thirty
to sixty days. This permission, however, can,
with the proper kind of influence, be re-
newed many times.
The town is quaint, picturesque and quiet.
with its 1900 people, mostly English and
Spanish, though the number of different ma
tionalities represented makes 1t one of the
most cosmopolitan places in the world
Jews, Turks, Levantines, the natives of Glib
raltar, called rock scorpions Africans
and refugees from all nations jostling each
other in the three badly built and irritat-
ingiy narrow streets of the town. The gar
rison numbers about 5000 persons. making
the population of the rock is about 250O0.
The soldiers are, for the most part, regulars
brought home from foreign service for rest
and recuperation. The governor of the rock
lives in the government house. formerly an
old convent. Everything is done by mill
tary rule; the hours Of the day are an
nounced by gun fire, the morning gun fol-
lowed by the bugle reveille wakens the in
habitants from their slumbers, and the
bugle blast that follows the evening gun,
telling the soldiers to turn in, has become a
signal for the civilians to go home and go
to bed. The average daily number entering
the garrison for the purpose of trading and
of bringing in supplies is 10000, the great
proportion Of these daily visitors being
Spaniards.
