And brought their precious gifts to greet
The birthday of the Child.

or will you think he's full?" and Mr.:
Teetzel will say. Fall on the ball, of
course" And so it will go. and after the
teacher is fully convinced that they have
the rules well in mind, the old-timers
will pull off their shoes and run up and
down the big floor learning their COM
plicated signals. They are all firm be-
levers in the famous saying, 1T is better

in spite of the time that has elapsed since
these men last played they will undoubt-
edly put up a strong game against the
university on Saturday.

Russian political prisoner, who recently

SMOKES $500, 900 PIPE.
Some of the Strange VaIuabies
Owned by Potentates.

The pipe smoked by the shah of Per-
STA on state occasions is set with dia-
monds, rubies and emeralds of the cost
Hest kind, and is stated to be worth as
much as 100000. His pipe is, therefore,
ten times more valuable than his sword
worn by the late shah's father on his
first visit to Europe-which is only
valued at the insignificant sum of $780,
900.
Talking of swords, says Tft-Bits,
perhaps the most precious blade" in
existence is that of the gaekwar of
Baroda. Its hit and belt are incrusted
with diamonds. rubies and emeralds,
ana IL is valued at 81, 100000. There are
some costly swords in India, and both
the car of Russia and the sultan of
Turkey possess jewelled sabres of great
price The most valuable sword in
England is the one presented by the
Egyptians to Lord WOlseley. The hilt
is set with brilliants and it is valued
at $4,000.
The finest brougham in the world is
owned by the maharajah of Ghened.
one of the wealthiest of Indian poten-
tates. The handles of the door are of
solid gold. while the rest of the car
riage is silver.
One of the most curious pianos ever
manufactured was made to the order
of the late emperor of Morocco. 1t had
to be made in parts, each small enough
to be carried by slave, as his high
ness absolutely refused to trust them
to the care of his camels, which formed
the only other available means of
transport. This instrument was an
exceedingly costly affair, being manu-
of nf.viC f11Ii
woods, inlaid with unpublished jacaran-
da parquetry and decorated with scroll
work of pure gold. The actual sum
paid for it was $4,000.
1t is impossible to value certain
things until they come under the ham,
mer in the open market. There is no
doubt that the queen of Italy's pearls
are, indeed, worth "a kings ransom. A."
but the pearl necklace which fetched
a record price belonged to the duchess
of MOntrose. The bidding began at
$4,000. and rose by bids of $1,000. 50. 500
and $500 to $4,000 at which price it
was knocked down.
NiOlinS have a romance all their own.
apart from their price, but $3.50, the
sum paid the other day for a violin by
Antonio Stradivari, seems an enormous
price to pay for an instrument the
original cost of which to the maker
cannot have exceeded 5 shillings. But
this price is a bagatelle i'm comparison
with some of the prices paid for the
creations of the great CremOna master
A few years ago S10,250 was paid for q
"Strad'' at Stuttgart, and there are
others in existence which even "a
kings ransom could not buy. Senior
Sarasate. the great viOlinist, owns one
such. 1t was presented to him by
Queen Isabella of Spain when as a boy
of 10-the infant prodigy of those days
he played before her at the court of
Madrid. 1t is said to be destined to
revert to the state on the great violin
