A New and Fireproof "Crow's Nest" at , Busnrd't Bay, The new summer home which Joseph Jefferson has erected on his Crow's Nest es tate at Buzzard's Bay is as near fireproof as possible. The old Crow's Nest was burned down a year ago, entailing; a loss of $300,000 quite sufficient to give a man of ordinary good sense a wholesome dread of fire and Mr. Jefferson concluded he would run as little risk as possible In rebuilding. So the new house was built after his own plans and every possible precaution taken afrainst another conflagration. , The architecture of the structure is of a composite style which is difficult to clas sify, but it is .handsome and substantial beyond the generality of summer resi dences. It is situated on the high bluff overlooking the waters of Buttermilk bay and commands an expansive view of the bay and the surrounding hills of the pictur esque country. The foundation and first story are of rubble and the second story and gables of brick. : The roof is of copper in imitation of Spanish tile, and there is but one other like it in the eastern states. While the bricklayers were at work on the tower, which is at the northwest end of the building, one of them arranged the bricks so that the word "Rip" stood out in bold relief. Mr. Jefferson noticed it when THE NEW CEOW'S NEST.' passing a few days later and dryly remark ed that in future the bricklayers need not pay attention to relief work without orders. The word still remains on the tower. --, The arrangement, finishing and decora tion of the interior leave nothing to be de sired in the way of comfort, utility or beauty. The.house is lighted by electricity, and there are electric bells and speaking tubes in-every room. The woodwork of the rooms in the first story is of oak. The other stories are finished in white pine. Mr. Jefferson has not forgotten to provide, a studio, where he can indulge in his favorite pastime of painting. It is on the top floor and has a large oval window, with a splen did north light. There is a door from the studio into the lookout of the tower. A little distance south of the house is an attractive structure designed by Mr. Jeffer son for an engine room and dynamo sta tion. Wires leading from it supply the house with light and also connect with the cottages of his sons, who are his nearest neighbors. Gray Gables, the summer home of President Cleveland," is not far away, and the .great 'actor is a frequent and wel come visitor there. ; Pattl Has S3 75,000 Worth of Diamonds. Adelina Patti's diamonds have been valued at $375,000. The Empress Eugenie gave Patti as a wedding present when she married the Marquis de Caux a comb set with twenty-three diamonds. A gift from Queen Victoria was a superb diamond locket. . Baroness Burdett-Couts once gave the songstress an enormous diamond set in a ring. The diva's wonderful set of sapphires was sold when she was obliged by French law to divide her fortune with her first husband. The emperor of Russia was the giver to the prima donna of a. pair of large dia monds mounted as earrings. Emperor William of Germany gave her a splendid diamond brooch, and the emperor of Aus tria a bracelet of diamonds. Patti possesses twenty-three diamond bracelets, and has a necklace of very large and fine emeralds. Her turquoise jewelery set with diamonds includes four pins, two bracelets, earrings and a handsome pendant. Jewelers' Weekly. ; A Story of Italy's Queen. The favorite governess of the queen of Italy when she was a child was Mile. Rosa Aberser, who was a girl of twenty-two when the ten-year-old princess of Savoy beeame her pupil.- The two became very much attached to each other, for the Vien nese teacher's yoke was easy, and her in struction was pleasantly imparted. The princess at that time received a small amount of pocket money every month. The governess at one time noticed her pupil had spent nothing of it for several months, and when asked what she in tended doing with it gave an evasive an swer. At the end of the fourth month, however, Princess Margaret of Savoy pre sented ber governess with her initials in diamonds. Revue de Famille. One Way of Making Piecrust Flaky. To make piecrust flaky spread the crust when rolled out for the top of the pie with a thin layer of butter. Dredge with flour and cover your pie with the crust as usual. When ready for the oven tip the pie slanting, holding it in the left hand, and pour pver the pie a glass of cold water to rinse off the flour. Enough of the lat ter will stick to the butter to fry into the crust while baking and make it flaky. Exchange. Onion Notes. Onions are improved by soaking in warm salt water an hour or so before cooking, as this removes some of the rank flavor. They cook tender much quicker if sliced in rings instead of splitting. If they are peeled and sliced with hands under water some "idle tears" may be avoided. Ex change. , j .

General Mlhps, . the Greatest of Indian Fighters, Inherits His Military Ardor. Major General Nelson A. Miles, who will succeed to the command of the military di vision of the Atlantic on the retirement of General Howard during the present year, seems to have been born for a military ca reer. He is not a West Pointer, as every body knows who knows anything about army matters, but achieved his military reputation "even at the cannon's mouth," in actual service on the field of battle dur ing the civil war and in suppressing vari ous Indian rebellions in the great west. He Is unquestionably the greatest of Indian fighters. His career in this regard makes a Iplendid argument in favor of atavism, for Ms earliest ancestor in America, Rev. John Miles, a Welsh minister who came to Mas sachusetts in 1643, left the pulpit to lead a company of colonists in the bloody King Philip's war. ' ,, . -i Later on another Miles fought through the Revolution from Bennington to York town and took an active part in the war of GENERAL NELSON A. MILES. . 1813. From Plymouth Rock to Pine Ridge the Miles family seems to have been of con siderable service to the nation, and as to the subsequent extraordinary usefulness of its present leading representative the whole American people are amply prepared to testify. , ' , When the war broke out, Nelson A. Miles was in business in Boston. He entered the army as lieutenant of a company of Massa chusetts volunteers in 1861, being then 81 years of age. Five years later he was mus tered out as a major general of volunteers, the youngest soldier of that rank" who came out of the war. He was at once appointed a colonel in the regular army and served in North Carolina throughout .the "recon struction" period. Then he was ordered west to look after the restless red savages of the plains. The Cheyennesand the Arapahoes in 1870 were first to get a taste of his quality. Next he Inflicted exemplary punishment on the Kio was, Comanches and Cheyennes in south ern Kansas. After the Custer massacre he went up to the Yellowstone region and wiped out Sitting Bull's band, and next he performed the same kindly duty for the wily Chief Joseph and his Nez Perces. Ev erybody remembers how he cooped up Ge ronimo and his Apaches, leading his troops for weeks over mountains'and across sandy wastes. Under a broiling sun, clad in noth ing but their underclothes. f One of his western veterans said of him: "He never asked us to go anywhere he wouldn't go himself, and we'd have follow ed him through hell. We did, pretty near, I'm tbinkin, when we were after old Gero nimo." . . . - .. , A Boy with a Heart. First Little Chap Sacksey Swipes, he's th' right sort of a boy. He's got a heart in 'im. -. . .

The name Borden, which has come so sadly into notice in connection with the late Fall River murder, is one that has long been prominent in Fall River. It once furnished a Massachusetts member of congress in N. B. Borden, and a rep resentative in the state legislature from that town bearing it was the member who gave the vote .that first elected Charles! Sumner to the United States senate after the many weeks of that cel ebrated controversy.

No other vegetable compares with it in pro ductiveness, as Humboldt pointed out, and none other is as rich in pure food constituents. '. Yet it is in one sense al most a neglected product. Bananas are eaten as fruit more and more" every year, but until now hardly anything has been attempted in the way of making a staple meal from them, although banana meal was known as long ago as the time of the Monteztimas. - It has been supposed that this meal could not be made in a manner to keep, but recent experiments have proved that it may. Several governments notably those of England, Germany and the United States have now become interested in the question, and it is altogether likely that within a few months the manufac ture of banana meal will be an estab lished industry in various parts of the world. New York World. , Over a Hundred Stone Knives. . While plowing a field on Jesse Doan's farm, in Buckingham township, near Furlong, one day recently, Frank Doan struck a curiously shaped flint stone of a kind not found in that vicinity. It was about 5 inches long by inches wide in the center, with the edges sharp but irregular. Convinced that it was an implement left by former' Indian residents of that neighborhood; it hav ing been found on the site of a wood near a chestnut tree that is said to be over 200 years old, Mr. Doan concluded to investigate further. He dug down several feet, and was rewarded by find ing 110 stones of the same shape and kind, which tho3e learned in the ways of the aborigines say are "skinning knives."

Per haps it would be more strictly accurate if it were designated the rise of the summer umbrella, for the most practi cal article of that description is one equally adaptable to sun or rain. It has a light stick handle, and is in a shade of light blue or dark green for this in a summer when it rains as unexpectedly as the sun shines fiercely. There is no adjunct of later day costume that is a greater boon than the summer um brella. W. A. Clarke in Clothier and Furnisher. . Stanley's Stepfather lu Homestead.

Every good thing has i,ts host of imitat ors; every genuine article its counterfeits. The imitators always choose the most val uable and popular article to counterfeit, so that when they 'claim their sham to be equal, or as good, or the same as " So-and-so's," the publio may depend upon it that " So-and-so's " article is the best of the kind. ' Allcock's Pobous Plaster is the stand ard of excellence the world over, and imi tators in their cry that theirs is "as good as Allcock's " are only emphasizing this fact and admitting "Allcock's" to be the acme of perfection, which it is their high est ambition to imitate. The difference be tween the genuine and these imitations is as wide as that between copper and gold. The only safe way for purchasers is to always insist upon having Allcock's Pob ous Plaster.
