STANDS IN one or tne picturesque
streets of Greenbush, just across the
Hudson River from Albany. It was1
near this house that ':Yankee Doodle,
was written. For years the old block
house has been fast decaying under
the ruthless ravages of time and the
elements. The Society Of Colonial
Danes, recognizing the value of this
the oldest house in the United States;,5
has leased it for term Of fifteen years.
When the improvements now in prog;
ress shall have been completed cus-.
todian will be placed in charge. By
the payment of a small entrance fee it
will be accessible to all visitors !
The building was erected in 1912 as
manor house and place of defense;
and was known as Fort Crailo. It wag
General Abercrombie's headqutrtefs
while that doughty warrior was march;II
ing to attack Fort Tioonderoga, ihI
1853. It was at the cantonment eaatI
of this house, near the old well, that,
the Army Surgeon, R. ShuckburgR,l
composed the immortal song, 'Yankee1
Doodle" The house is the original
homestead Of the younger and largerf
branch of the Van Rensselaer, family q
after whom the county was named. I
According to the best histories, the
building was erected by Killian Van
Rensselaer, for his son Johannes be- !
tween the years 1880 and 1642.
The building is two-story and
attic brick structure of most substa1:1
tial construction. The walls are oE
great thickness, and are still piercedi
with two OF the nine stone loopholesj
which once commanded the ap:
proaches. The beams Of hewn pi1eS
are Of unusual size, some of them BE-
ing sixteen inches square. About the
middle of the eighteenth century the;
rude fortress.like dwelling was trans.'
formed into handsome residence, |
and an addition was made in the rear
in 1740. The main entrance is in the
middle of the river front and gives
access to small hall, from which
open doors leading to the main roomsI
on either side. At the end of the hall
springs an arch, the imposts and sof-
fits Of which are ornamented with
delicate garlands in low relief. a.
second and much larger. paneled hall,
opening upon the porch at the left,
intersects this hall at the centre of the
house. The old Crsilo manor house,
is most euriously planned. All the
rooms connect with each other. usually,
by means of closets, but as there are
several levels on the same story the
doors in some cases open several fest
above the level of the floor Of
the lower room. There is no ap..
parent reason for this difference of
level. unless it was purposely designed
to increase the difficulty of capture in
the event of the house being taken by
an enemy.
The building some years ago passed.
out of the hands Of the Van Rensse"
laers, and the property was in litiga-
ton for nearly two years. During
that time it was the retreat Of q band
of young rufians who broke the win
dows, defaced the woodwork, and de-
molished the mantels and balustera.
Prior to that time the old manor wss
visited by. people from all parts OF the
United States. It is famous in history
and song.

Contrary to general expectation,

AS Chicago woman cyclist was
taking 4 run on her wheel along a
country road, n woman rushed wildly
out from q small cottage many yards
from the highway, waving her apron

stopped short and waited. The wom-
ans husband was probably dying and
she wanted to send for doctor. Curl

drew near. AS she came up, painting
and breatllless, she calculated: "Fore

made for friends, and close friends, and
young women are not exempted from
the rule. We must set our hearts on
something. Love that which demands
the hest OF your spirit, that draws you
out and enables you to focus your thought
about II as an adequate and worthy end.
You may not always be single, you may
not awake in the next world or in this
perfected world a woman. But you will
always have fellowship with the men,
bers of your race and personal relations
with your God. Take care of the springs
of character and the form In which II
manifests itself In days TO come is
subordipste matter. Whether as sister,
daughte wife, mother, nun or angel,
everything that In silly or base or weak
that you suppress now will be q matter of
congrat ulation In your heart forever. A
few catch-words may be remembered:
1. Every young woman ought TO have
some time IN her day for other things
than work or play-that is worship. No
woman can have a high order OF beauty
unless she prays.
2. 1t has been found necessary to teach
the Delsarte method TO many women who
did not learn how to be graceful when
they learned to dance.
3. The leisure gained by a release from
the dairy and the loom, ought in this
generation TO be utilized by the enrich
ment of head and heart. 1t ought TO
give time for more love to the loveless-
not to be lost in more elaborate living.
4. The final civilization will be simple
overworking neither hands, mind nor
tongue, but employing all these meas
urably.
8. The modern woman may enter al
most any walk; whether she honors these
new openings will depend on motive
more than brain.

Mr.. John Coleman, the veteran head
waiter at the Ottawa House. continues
as popular as eyer. Thursday last he
was the recipient of large, handsome
wicker rocker as testimony of the es-
TEEN i'll which he is held by the two score
and ten young ladies who CATER to the
wants of the Ottawa's guests under his
able yet kind direction. Miss
Bertha Stevens made the presenta-
tion speech in very apt and well chosen
words.
She referred to the many fond and en-
dearing memories attached to the ''old
armchair in the song, and although on
this occasion it was not an heritage
from sire to son, but a present from the
children of younger generation to a
kind and loving master, she doubted if
the memories in future years would
prove less dear, and in behalf of the
young ladies wished him many years to
rock awaysthe twilight hours of life and
recall the many pleasant hours of their
association. John replied as is his won't
and maintained his former reputation
as master in such a speech as this oc-
casion called for. The applause at the
close of the speech showed how well his
words were appreciated.
