New YORK, Dec. 5.-It was all done
very quietly. That goes almost without
saying. 1t had to be done very quietly, or
it could not be done at all
Cautiously, with finger on lip, almost on
tiptoe, the humble scribe was led Into a
corner which was curtained of on an upper
floor of one Of the large establishments in
New York, aud was there given a glimpse
at the new bed which has been ordered for
Baby Cleveland.
The bed is the dearest little gem imagin-
able. The foundation of it all, or more
properly speaking, the framework is of
brass and white enamel. 1t is constructed
on those hygienic principles which govern
the building of those beautiful brass bed
stesds. which are found in homes Of wealth
aud luxury. There are no seams in which
dust may collect, no cracks where vermin
can Turk, and no unnecessary screws or
bolts or bars anywhere. SO far as the
frame work is concerned, 1t is all as plain
and substantial as possible.
But the dressing for the bed is most de-
lightfuL First, there is upon the delicate
springs what Is known Ms French bed. It
consists OF three hight mattresses placed on
top OF each other. The first one Is a hair
mattress, the next one Is a very thin feather
Que, and on top there ID q still more delicate
cushion Of elder down.
Over the mattresses goes a covering of
sanitary wool sheeting, and then there are
silk sheets, elder down pillows and silk
cases, an elder down spread with a silk COW
erlet, aud the most exquisite lace counter
pane that ever Was fashioned. Around the
edge of the bed there is a deep valance of
lace caught with large bows of pale yellow
ribbon. The canopy is a dream of fine lacey
folds caught at front and back and sides
with bows of the same beautiful shade of
ribbon. The inside of the canopy is lined
with yellow OF a deeper shade and several
sets OF silk sheets and pillow cases of deli
cate hues have been ordered to accompany
the bed.
The entire affair Is delightfully."- dainty and
sweet-jusb such bed as one would choose
for the baby of the beloved Mrs Cleveland.
The Jenness- Miller baby is exciting a
great deal of interesting comment. IL is
understood that Mrs. Miller had all her
baby clothes made i'll the most approved
dress reform fashion. And now, the baby
is TO wear the Jenness-Milier garments
through all the stages of babyhood and
toothdom. When the baby's gums grow
hot and painful and baby becomes fretfui
in socks and blankets, warmer ones of an
| entirely new pattern are to be tried uDon
the little one TO insure greater comfort.
From the first, and on, through ell tho diff
ferent months, Is is to have Iull use of its
| feet and limbs. No swaddling clothes, no
| blankets, no shawls, no bulky long coaks
and wraps and long dresses are to be- per-
mitted. Different articles, ali of the Jen-
ness-Miller design, have been provided for
every possible occasion of baby's life until
SUCH time as grown up" clothes can DO as
sumed.
All success to the Jonness- Miller baby
May its pretty and graceful mother snow
the world that a baby can be brought up
stronger and healthier clad in dress reform
than in the old way.
MARY ANDERSON s CATCH.
When Mary Anderson Navarro wns Mary
Anderson, the pride of the American stage,
she was well known to take great pleasure
and pride in her beautiful home at Long
Branch. Running just along the rear of
her charming house and grounds there was
| lovely little stream, which wound in and
out for miles through the pretty woodland
country. Mary Anderson loved to fish in
the stream, and she enjoyed many a
happy day yachting and cruising along
| the banks.
Although Mary Anderson is now married
as ever, for, though living temporarily in
England, she retains American ways and
cliugs to American customs. Years ago
Mary Anderson was very fond of fishing
and during her vacation she would set face
directly for her little place at Long Branch
and would there fish and fish to her hearts
| content. Now, though she is mar ried and
holds higher social position than she ever
| held when she was on the boards, she en-
| iOva tho aama old ma ztinaG which xvara han
her delight.
In company with her husband, the hand
some MIR. Navarro, she takes frequent trips
| up the Thames in small boat, and landing
at some quiet place along the shore, will
spend a whole day fishing, returning at
night with her spoils.
Snortly after her marriage Mrs Navarro
invited her husband to take her upon q
fishing trip, and boldly challenged him to
beat her at a big catch. Mr.. Navarro
laughingly accepted the challenge ana the
two Navarros threw over their lines gayly
and waited as patiently as if they were
school boys out hsding on Saturday. Mrs
Navarro won, for at the first haul she
landed big fish, SO big that Its accurate
weight could never be quite determined
Stories differ about that haul, but Mrs.
Navarro stoutly insists that it was a mag
nificent catch, and adds that she won the
bet anyway-to all Of which Mrs. Navarro
indulgently attirms.
SHE LIKED MAKE BELIEVE HUG.
Near Miss Anderson's place at Long
Branch, there was stopping one summer,
the theatrical manager and actor, John AL
baugh, who is brother-inlaw OF Maggie
Mitchell, and is on the best of terms with
Miss Anderson.
During the summer it was arranged that
Mr.. Albaugh should star with Miss Ander-
son in certain well-known roles, the man
who was previously engaged to support her
having in some way violated his contract
Immediately rehearals began between MISS
Anderson and Mr.. Albaugn, and il the resi-
dences at Long Branch could tell histrionic
tales they would have manga thrilling scene
to relate.
Mr. Albaugh is a. actor of remarkable
force and earDestness, and during the re-
hearsals he would throw his arms around
Miss Anderson in the love scenes and clasp
her frantically to his breast.
Nov, Miss Anderson was cold in manner,
as all theater-goers knew, and, while she did
her parts exquisitely. she could not bear to
be really embraced by her support. Conse-
quently many wordy war took place be-
tween the two good friends and neigh ors.
Mr.. Albaugh would promise to remember
Miss Auderson's likes and dislikes. and
