Passing of the Englirh Inn.

Tourists in England are deploring the passing of the inn, that homely and comfortable institution long fam ed in English romance and history. In deed. the country and seaside hotels have lost that distinction which once attracted Americans and have now fallen into the commonplace of any other hostelry. In becoming like all the rest, the English country hotel has missed the admirable cooking and ex- traordinary cheapness of It's continen- tai rival Prices have increased with out reason. It is claimed that the mo- torist is responsible for this change of the old to the new and, moreover, that Q greater change is yet to come. The country inn-keeper Is to be awaken ed to a sense of his responsibilities. That Eastronomtc horror, "the course dinner is to worry incompetent cooks and dis satisfy cosmopolitan patrons and the rustic charm of the inn will completely vanish under it's attempt to initiate Carriages and other metropolitan ho- kQls

RuIzoc,s Fomous Cane.

The great French novelist's walking stick, with huge round ball at the top, incrusted with precious stones was once the talk of Paris, It's story Is interesting. Balzac was a prisoner for refusing to serve in the National Guard While there. and giving dim ner to his friends, a mysterious parcel was handed to him by prison official. It was opened and a long strand Of silky, fair hair, coiled and passed through a ring in which was set one superb cut emerald. lay on the table. The paper with 1t contained the words, An unknown friend" written in Eng lIsh Balzae, much moved. then and there thought out the idea of the walk ing stick. The huge ball at the top Of the stick was to hold the lovely, silken, clinging hair, and the emerald set on the top was to be honored by a perfect cluster of fitting and expensive gems.

New Orleans, Birmingham and Atlanta Wanted Plant of Cotton Stalks Products C0mpany-Mr.
 Vandiver in Chicago.

Tho announcement ir yesterdays s Advertiser that S20O,000 plant for the manufacture of paper from the hither- to wasted cotton stalks had been se- cured for Montgomery through the eff forts of W. F. Vandiver caused much speculation and congratulation on the part of Montgomerians.
 The subject was of deep interest to those interested in Montgomery's well fare and they indulged in considerable discussion anenH the probable location of the plant and the number of peo- pie to be employed in the new indus try. These questions will not be set tied until the return of MT. Yandiver from a business trip of indefinite length. He left Atlanta Saturday night for Washington, but en route received telegram calling him to attend to important business in Chicago and he has gone to that city, where he Is stay ing at the Ocean Beach Hotel
 The information comes from Atlanta that Atlanta, Birmingham and New Orleans put forth every effort to se- cure the plant when the directors of the Cotton Stalks Product Company de- cided that Montgomery had the ad-

 The Cotton Stalks Product Company. of which Harvie Jordan. President of the Southern Cotton Association. Is president, Is capitalized at $15,00o, 900 and has already been financed by East ern and Southern capitalists. That the venture is feasible has already been demonstrated by experiments which have shown that an excellent quality of paper can be produced frona the cotton stalk
 Seldom has a new undertaking been launched with such favorable pros poets. The raw product can be had for almost nothing and the demand is euch that profitable industry Is almost a foregone conclusion. Cheaper paper is also a probability.

A City ON the CIins.

Precisely why the town Of Bonifacio,
In Corsica, is built to the sheer edge
Of the cliff which forms the sea front
age Of that part Of the island is ques-
ton always asked by the traveller who
views Bonifacio for the first time, and
he reiterates his question when he OBJ
serves, upon visiting the environs of
the place, that there is plenty Of room
for the town to have spread out in an
inland direction. The early Corsicans
apparently thought that farm land was
worth more than city real estate and
so crowded their dwellings to the dizzy
edge OF their 200 foot precipice. Ones
first impression Is that these houses,
with their walls on q vertical plane
with the cliff, were purposely so stu
ated that the body of victim Of a
dark vendetta murder might be con-
veniently dropped out Of the window
into the sea beneath, with no one the
wiser. Certainly there is suggestion
Of romance and mystery in the aspect
of the town. 1t forms, at any rate, one
Of the oldest sky lines In the world.

Bear Hunting.

Bear hunting, with the assistance of
guides supplied with well trained
pack of hounds, may be satisfactory if
merely the killing Of them Is desired,
but 1t certainly is no sport and de-
serves not even to be ranked with trap
ping bears, as in the latter case the
hunter must possess at least some
knowledge Of the quarry's habitat and
habits. Unlike a fox, a bear, when
once found by the hounds, stands no
chance whatever Of escaping, and
there would be just as much sport in
shooting the animals in park or pen
as to kill run to bay bear. And,
while this truth applies to mountain
lions also, there is not even the ex-
cuse of the animals destructiveness,
which is applicable as far as the lat
ter is concerned-Fielda and Stream.

The Poodle.

Why is a poodle, so called? Some
one says: Probably the natural an.
swer would recall the old lady who
said that no credit could be given
to Adam for naming the pig, since
anybody would have known what to
can it. Poodle seems 80 obvious a
name for this dog. And, in fact, this
is not far from the truth about the
origin Of the word. 1t is quite recent
In English, not being found before
1864, apparently. 1t is the German
'pudel,' which comes from the Low
German, 'pudeln,' to waddle, and the
dog must have been so called, as Skeat
says, either because he waddles after
his master or because he looks fat and
clumsy on account of his thick hair. !"
