MANUEL's VISIT
Portugal's Young Ruler Finds Wife
Hunting Trip Costly.

London. Dec. 14.-It is not a cheap.
experience for a monarch to pay a visit
to the king of England. as young Kine
Manuel of Portugal has found out.
The habit of tipping servants at the
close of.visits in England is otter mem
toned as cause of complaint, for so
heavy are the fees expected that stay
ing at country house becomes more
expensive than stopping at a very high
priced hotel. Windsor castle is no ex-
ception in this respect, and roval
visitor is supposed to leave trail of
presents behind him al the close of his
stay. There is not only the lump sum
handed over for distribution among
the lower servants, but also the dia-
mond pins. jeweled cigarette. cases.
and watches presented to every one
who ministers to the safety and luxury
of the visitor.
Did All That Was Expected.
King Manuel seems to have done all
that was expected of him in this re-
spect, though he will not, of course,
rank with certain sovereigns who have
left a record for generosity at the
castle. Windsor has its traditions Of
muniflcence. and royal servants can
tell one another the status of the late
shah. Napoleon III, the German en-
peror. and all the rest of the visitora
there by the amount of their tips.
Napoleon III left great impression
Of generosity. but even he is outranked
by the Emperor Nicholas of Russia,
who excelled all royal guests in his
munificence. When he left the castle
he handed over $4,000 in tips to the
servants, and he left nearly half as
much again to be distributed among
various charities.
Another very expensive affair for
the king of Portugal was becoming q
knight of the garter. He had to pur-
chase all his insignia, of course with
the exception of the ribbon and the
actual garter. The star of the order
is the most costly item. and he had to
spend on this not less than $4,000.
The star that was worn by the earl
of Beaconsfield was sold after his.
death for 100000 and there are several
knights of the order today who carry
small fortune on their breasts when
wearing their robes and insignia.
Collar of the Order.
The collar of the order is another,
large expense. and then there are the
disbursements that have to be made,
to the various officials of the garter,
Every one who can pretend even re-
motely to have taken share in the in
vestiture seems to look upon the new
knight as his prey and bills for fees
set out in true commercial fashion ;
soon pour in upon him.
However. in spite of the fact of the
great expenditure and also the nom
arrangement of any marriage for him.
King Manuel seemed thoroughly to,
enjoy his visit to England and the cor.
diality with which all London greeted
him.

sands of dollars of damage, the coal
regions of eastern Pennsylvania has
been relieved of the drouth which has
been almost continuous for siv
months. The damage done by the
wind and rain is lost sight of in the
great benefit wrought by the unusual
downpour. Thousands of miners have
been entirely idle or working on less
than half time because of lack of wa

ended last night will mean the start
