KINGS MAKE FAD
OF COLLECTING
The Austrian Emperor Delights
in Menu Cards and the Shah
of Persia i'm Pipes.

LONDON, July 24.-The Princess OF
Wales has. it is well known, very val
liable collection of paraSolS Of all sorts
of shapes and fashions. One Of these
is said to be worth several thousands
of pounds, though. as it will never come
into open market, it is impossible to say
what is it's actual value. 1t is made OF
the finest India silk. exquisitely en-
broidered, whilst the stem is OF purest
ivory, interlaced with gold.
It was presented to her royal high
ness some years ago by the Marajah
Gwalior.
The emperor of Austria has a very
remarkable collection of menu cards.
The emperor himself is one of the most
plain living of men, and his own menu
cards are record of dinners of the
simplest description, contrasting
strongly with some Of the other royal
menu cards in his possession.
The emperor of Russia keeps most
sumptuous table, and the list of regu-
lar dishes always includes such delica-
cies as Neck, clans, turtle soup and
ortolans. The menu card placed on the
imperial table at st. Petersburg is
printed in red letters on pure ivory
tablet, surmounted by the royal crest
and arms.
One Of the most famous menu cards
ever prepared was on the occasion of
the dinner given by Nicholas II. to
President Faure at the Russian en-
bassy.
The card was in reality a block of
the rarest black marble, beautifully
printed on by a celebrated French art
ist in compliment to the president,
whilst the actual list Of dishes was let
tered in ivory
The Austrian emperor regards this
menu card as the prize of his collection.
which includes the cards of nearly ev-
cry royal table in the world.
The Shah of Persia has a very eel
ebrated collection of pipes. and during
his visit to this country last year re-
ceived from the Prince of Wales a
valuable addition to it. This pipe is
made out Of one piece Of pure amber.
without any decoration whatsoever,
and was accompanied by an ivory case.
bearing the name of the imperial re-
cipient and the date of his visit in gold
letters.
The German emperor has a most
wonderful collection of sticks of all
shapes and cut in every part of the
world.
There is thick club of Oregon pine,
weighing some fifteen stone. and so hard
that if placed in a red-hot furnace for
a few minutes 1t would come forth I'M
harmed.
There is also to be seen a thin cane
cut from a sort of willow tree in Lii
IBERIA, which can be twisted round the
wrist like a piece of gutta- percha. but
will be come as straight as dart when
released.
Irishmen will see their native black
thorn represented in this imperial col
lection side by side with a short,
stumpy. acknowledging cane, said to
be 5000 years old. and worth nearly as
many pounds.

sweating, which sat from 1888 to 1880,
he did work that will not be forgotten
soon in this country He also made a
plucky attempt to infuse something like
efficiency into the house Of lords, but
it goes without saying that the effort
ended in failure.
Lord Dunraven and Mr.. Chamber
lain are good friends. and the colonial
secretary and his American wife have
been frequently the guests of Sir
Thomas Lipton's predecessor at Dun
raven Castle, Wales. which is one of
the most admirably placed residences
in England. It stands on a high rocky
promentory called 1.-THE Witch's Head"
which may have suggestees the title
of Rider Haggard's noyel-and from
the castle windows one can look out
over a turbulent sea for thirty miles
Most of the residence itself is modern,
but the story goes that part of it dates
back to time when a famous Wrecker
named Vaughan. who Iorded it over the
district, lured many a rich lugger upon
the rocks by means Of signal lights.
Still a keen yachtsnan. the Earl Of
Dunraven's greatest exploit remains his
effort to capture the cup which is now
the object of a similar contest to those
in which the nobfeman took part. His
life, however has been unusually full
of adventures. As young man he
was a famous steeple- chaser. Like sew
eral other English sportsmen. he has
hunted and trapped in the Rockies. He
has been war correspondent, too,
representing the London Telegraph
both in Abyssinia and Germany. Lord
Dunraven is now g. He has daugh-
ter. but an uncle is his heir preSump-
tive.
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-08-02

when the Morning began her return
voyage to New Zealand. 1t was thus
physically impossible for Capt. Scott
to carry out the instructions which had
been sent to him, which were that he
was to return to Lyttleton with the
Discovery this spring. All hope was
not Immediately abandoned that even
after the departure of the Morning the
Discovery might be able to work free
from the ice; but the hope was never
very strong one, and it Is now placed
beyond all reasonable doubt that the
British Antartic expedition has been
obliged to spend another winter in the
inhospitable regions of the South Polar
area.
Financial Considerations.
In these circumstances it is apparent
that another relief expedition must be
sent to Capt. SCOTS assistance during
the next open season, and the question
has been how this second relief expedi-
ton is to be provided. The funds at
the disposal of the joint committee of
the Royal and the Royal Geographical
has publicly stated, insufficient to meet
this unexpected demand; nor could it
be met from the separate relief fund
raised by the Royal Geographical So
ciety, out of which the cost of the first
relief expedition had been met. In
these circumstances an appeal was
made to the government to contribute
to the cost Of the second relief expedi-
ton, and on May 26 last, the prime
minister, in reply to a question adj
dressed him by Col. Reyds, stated that
the government was prepared to con-
tribute to the relief of the officers and
The Saint Paul globe. (St. Paul, Minn.) 1896-1905, 1903-08-02

will avail themselves of Capt. Colbeck's
services on the second relief expedition
since there is no other officer who has
the same experience of Antarctic nav
igation. Capt. Colbeck is not on the
active list of the navy. but belongs to
the Royal Naval Reserve.
The New Relief Ship.
The second vessel which is to form
part of the relief expedition has al
ready been acquired, an agent of the
admiralty having prchased at st.
johns Newfoundland. the Terra Nova,
a steam whaler which was built at
Dundee in 1884. and is said to be the
largest vessel of her kind afIoat.
There was some idea, we believe, of
acquiring the Terra Nova for the main
expedition before it had been finally de-
clded to build a special vessel. She
is screw steamer of 30 horse power.
QUILT of wood, and of 744 gross tom
mage. her net tonnage being $50. There
is no reason to doubt that she is adj
mlrably fitted for the purpose for
winch she has been acquired but be-
fore sailing for the South Polar seas
she will of course require to be over
hauled and certain alterations made in
her internal arrangements This work
VIII. 1t is understood, be carried out at
dundee by the firm of shipbuilders
which built the Discovery. The dis
patch of two vessels will necessarily
considerably increase the cost of the
relief expedition, but there will be gem
eral satisfaction that the government
has taken on its own shoulders the re-
sponsibility of relieving the Discovery,
and no disposition to criticise the adj
miralty for what may, perhaps, in some
quarters be regarded as an excessive
precaution in dispatching two vessels
instead of one.
