their savings at home is sometimes at
tended with comical consequences.
A thrifty dame. who lives in the st.
Lazare quarter, possessed $500 in
notes and gold. She could think OF
no better place of secreting her hoard
than in tin box fastened to the drain
pipe outside her window. Here, she

courtyard. That functionary having
recovered from his surprise, and being
unable to explain the descent OF the
box of money, took it to the nearest
police station. He was busy furnish
ing the somewhat incredulous commits

the box burst into the office to report

TREES HAD DISEASE
And Bell Nursery Destroys Its
Stock at Order of the
Forestry Board.

Owing to the prevalence of the San
Jose scale in the fruit trees of the Bell
Nursery, east of the city, the forestry
department issued an order against
any of the trees being taken from the
place and recommended that the stock
on hand be taken up and burned. The
management of the nursery has COM
piled with the departments order. The
loss was very great. 1t is probable
that the nursery will not be set out
again.
The forestry department is endeavor-
ing to prevent the spread of the scale.
which is probably the most destructive
parasite which fruit trees in the Unit.
ed States are subject to. Whenever
the department finds that nursery
stock is affected, an order such as was
issued against the Bell nursery is al.
ways given The law against nursery
men sending out stock which is known
to be affected, provides for severe pun.

sage from Kaiser wilhelm of Ger
many, through Prince Eitel Frederick,

aroused much comment. It was un-

invitation from the Kaiser to the
former president to be guest at the
royal palace while In Berlin.
Col Roosevelt persisted in his de-
sire to be treated only as an Ameri-
can citizen.
Col. Roosevelt enjoyed a day of
comparative rest. In spite of a sight
seeing trip in the city, two receptions
and luncheon. at which he was the
guest of the Khedive, the former
presidents itinerary was uneventful,
when set beside the strenuous pro-
grams of the last few days.
He Receives Tourists.
In the morning, at Sheperds hotel
where the Roosevelt party occupies
the royal suite, Mr.. Roosevelt receiv-
ed the 300 American tourists who
yesterday sent him petition asking
the opportunity to shake his hand. II
was reminiscent of the White House
days. Mr.. Roosevelt passed from
group to group shaking hands, talk.
ing. making comments on the coun.
try and asking questions as he used
to do in Washington, and the SOC
guests left wholly satisfied.
Then came the luncheon given by
the Khedive, one of the guests being
Oscar Strauss, the American ambas
sador to Constantinople. Others in
vited were Wu Ting Fang, recently
Chinese minister to America ant
Prince Eitel.
Roosevelt Plays Golf.
The next step was a visit to the
Azbar University and the Alkazs
Mosque and game of golf with Gen
Sir John Maxwell, commander of ths
British forces in Egypt.
The reception in honor of the for
mer president, given by CONSUL Gen

Between times in his busy round o
