Tales of Well Known Folk ™ In Social and Official Lif (Continued from. Tenth Page.) Victoria was fond of cats, dispatched her a pair by a trading shij For years a Slam cat rivaled a Paisley shawl in Victorla's ideal of a royal ift, and each child and grandchil in 11 the royal circle became the possessor of a pair. King Edward and spouse, Alexandra, did not care for this rather diabolical looking , with its enormous green- ish yellow eyes staring out of a black face, edged with white like the frill of a cap, and Siamese cats were iven in such profusion that every 1f-respecting *feline collection boasts several now. Queen Mary likes cats and so too her daughter, Princess Mary Lascalles, and they exhibited Siamese and biue Perclans as well But though the British pesrage Is now newrly one-fourth American, not & prominent name appeared among the 1,700 exhibitors of cats or in con- rection with managing the display, which is associated with this country. ‘The Pacific coast is much wrou by the alarming fad which the Anglesey, now studving to become a flim etar, has introduced, namely, to take a number of pet wo'ves on prom- enade or even Into the drawing room of his friends. The earl, who is trying to retrieve the family fortune at Holly wood, s convinced of his power to con- quer ‘the savage instinct of wolves and other wild creatures and to star_in roles which will exhibit him thus. But the process is trylng on the nerves of those assoclated with him, and his en- trance Into a cozy tearoom with a cou- ple of wolves on a leash s generally to cause & rush for another exit. Some of the 'police authorities are cogitating what may be done to prevent the daily walk of the earl and at least flve wolves on the hitherto popular Hollywood boulevard, but since the' pets are held on a leash and have not yet shown any signs of reverting to the wold, nothing has yet been attempted to stop them. But as a rule the noble actor has the t un arl of hered social event.

President Cleveland visiied the Inn during the firstawinter of his administration, and was 50 de- lighted that he took his bride there for a few days during their honeymoon and later went there with his wife and children. President McKinley made a visit to Asheville during the exhausting _ winter following the Spanish-American war, and he, too, tarried many more days than his original itinerary called for, Presi- dent Roosevelt dropped off at Ashe- ville during his several trips to Geor- gia, and the Battery Park Hotel made a strong appeal. The days of snap- shots had arrived durimg this last presidential visitation, .and many . of the “colonel” adorncd the lobby. The chairs which Presidents Cleveland and McKinley had used were rever- ently roped off, but a few favored visitors were sometimes allowed to sit in them for a few moments. The old hotel, which occupied a wonderful hil]l site; had been condemned ago, and a million-dollar hos! soon to be buflt It is manifést to all who glance even casually into ‘the question that Americans in the aggregate are not as consumingly fond of cats, pedi- greed or plebian, as thelr British cousins. There is no national eat society in the length and breadth of this land, though there are many clubs devoted to tabbie's culture and welfare, and there are nUmMerous ex- hibitions of the best varieties held in different cities through each year. But nothing to compare to the grea display which has been held every year since 1871 in the Crystal Palace of London by the tional British Cat Society and which takes on the aspect of an important social event and actually packs the hotels and clubs with visitérs for the event. This year there were 1,774 entrants, with classes divided almost into minute | parts. The royal Slamese cats from | Windsor Palace are always given a prominent place, and being one of the rarest of the feline species, they carry off all the first prizes. These cats’ were unknown in Europe or| | even outside of Siam, until one of fts_rolers in 1850. hearine that Queen | REMCDELING 5% ‘—reduction on all _furs remodeled dur- ing the: month of - January.

The Duké of York, like his far- away predecessor, who became King James 11; has begun a collection of 8hip modéls and has acquired through <iligent. search some of those which the last of the Stuarts had made and which adorned the palace at White- hgll. Besides the conventional type of ship, which is always seen in the models and where The Golden Hind, Great Harry, Victory and the galleons of Columbus are constantly repeated, the duke has obtained from the ship master at Woolwich models of unusual ships, like many of those which swept the Spanish main of pi- rates and of others which went down in the conflict. He has a model of the Royal George, which went aground off Spitshead In 1783 and some of the less famous ships in Nel- son’ fleet. While the duke has no idea of turning his pretty country seat at Richmond into a museum, he Intends collecting untll he has enough to start the nucleus of a complete “little ship” fleet, which will event- lally become national property and which will serve as guldes for those who desire such interesting orna- ments for libraries or assembly rooms. As adornments' for sailors’ homes and for social clubs, which make a special appeal to navy men, the duke considers the little ship has been too long neglected. One of the unique societies of the -and cultivated world is that which the French min- istry of agriculture has sanctioned called “The Nobility of the Land" and which is made up of men who still | cultivate farms which have been in the possession of their forefathers for at least 500 vears. No less than twenty-seven men answered this summons, of these the premier farmer of France has been honored in Plerre Lafargue of Molieres in Tarn et Garonne, who brought to the authori- ties the documents given his ancestor by Charlemagne in 772. Since that year not a foot of the original forty acres has passed from the Lafargue famlly nor has it ever ceased to be under cultivation, Many of the grape vines are more than a thousand years | old and are gnarled and sturdy like those seen in the Rhine country which also date from Charlemagne’s era. TFour generations of the La- fargue family now dwell In the stone house which is the foursh on the farm and which was built in 1723. Five other familles have been recorded in the new soclety “The Nobility of the Land” as having cultivated their acres from a thousand to seven hune dred years and the head of all thes: has with much ceremony, presented by the mayor of the nearest village with a splendidly’ lluminated docu- | ment and with a gold medal. It is now proposed to add to these original land proprietors, nearly all of whom are peasants, the names of those who received their acreage after the French revolution and who have held it constantly . ever since. Paris has been entertaining the usual quota of American guests all the autumn and early winter, and as the official mandate about regl tering allen residents every month 1t police headquarters still holds. the total of Uncle Sam's sons and daugh- ters during December's first half was estimated to have reached near- 100,000. But there are complaints of soaring price ccially in house w room rent, and Americans who have scorned all the suburbs are now inding pleasant accommodations all ap and down ine. Mr. Gur- nee Munn and hls wife, who was Miss Wanamaker, purchased a house m a slope of the Trocadera dis- trict and transformed it into a mar- vel of beauty and comfort. As they ire in thelr own fand this winter and will spend part of it in the Munn mansion_on Scott circle, this house is_placed at the disposal of various relatives and friends who spend the winter in Parls.
