Wires.
The residence Of Mai. NJ. B. Millen, at
Price and Huntingdon streets, was dis
covered on fire at IL O'Clock last night.
An alarm was turned in, but the bell on
the Exchange did not strike. The gong
at the engine house on South Broad street
struck 4j, and the one az the Protection
Hose COmpany's house struck as.
When the hremen reached the house the
whole second story seemed ablaze. The
Ere was spreading rapidly, and was
burning under the floor n back room on
the second story. The fire was I'M
doubtedly OF inceudiary origin, as a
hole had been cut 10 the wall OF the room
in which the flames started. The hole
had been filled with paper and kinding
wood, and these were saturated with kerr
osene. The damage was 10 the first and
second stories and the furniture in two
orthree rooms. The loss is estimated at
800.
The lightwood In the wall had been
taken from a pile on the piazza An
empty kerosene can was lying near the
hole.

that the the wires Of the IRE alarm de-
partment had been tempered with as sew

FINE CLOTHES FOR BABIES.
How a PIutOcratic Grandm other Paid
$1,000 for an Infants Layette.
From the London Queen.


From, the London Queen.
A trihe under FL 900 was the sum paid
for the layette presented by its grand
mother to the infant OF the Princess
Murat. This seems an almost fabulous
amount to eXpend on so tiny an atom of
humanity, but glance at, or rather an
examination Of, the numberless little gar
ments that compose such layette, en-
abes one to understand how costly an
order becomes when the finest lace and
insertion enter into the fabrication
of every article OF undertaking,
when petticoats and flannels are covered
with massive embroidery, and robes are
Of HODitOn, Valenciennes or Venetian
point. In layettes now nightcaps are
de riGUeur, for it seems to be generally
recognized that during sleep an infants
ears should be kept warm and its head
protected from cold up to the time when
nature provides it covering. Frillings
and gatherings are, however, abandoned
in favor of that simple hOrseshOe-shape
cap that has a fashion q pelpetujte among
the children of the French, but which is
copied in much more delicate materials
for English babies.
Many of the robes owe their beauty to
the tineRess of the needlewOrk. the lilli-
putian tucks ana iDfnitesimal gatherings,
while others are rich in lace and embrOi-
derry. The patterns worked upon flannel
shawls are made more effective by the in
PRODUCTION of white chenille into the flow
ers and leaves, to mark the veinings of
the latter and the centres of the former.
ClOaks OF ivory colored frise velvet are
superseding those of embroidered cash
mere, and with them are worn soft hoods
of satin or plush edged with swansdOwn
made to draw closely round the face, and
give the warm cosy appearance one asso-
ciates with a baby.
