Thomas ". keeHe the eminent tragedian who is announced at the opera house for next Thursday and Friday nights, is the owner of q famous historical place where he lives on Staten Island. N. |. It is located at Castleton Corners, one of the most beautiful spots on the island. Mir. keene has passed his summers there for several years. Tine house is an old fashioned structure and part of 1t was used as the head quarters of American generals dur ing the Revolutionary War and for that reason the mansion possesses peculiar interest. Many people from New York and elsew here have visit ed the spot to see this celebrated house. Mir. keene has filled it with many relics of bygone days and mementoes of his career on the stage. This collection is very inter- estlng and one might spend hours with pleasure ahd profit looking at the various relies and hearing their history. Historians relate that under one of the apple trees which stood in Mir. keenes garden, and which was finally cut down because of old age and decay, Revolutionary generals held d very important con ference regarding the line of their campaign against their foreign foes. There are no other trees standing. however, that while suffering from advanced age possess almost equal historical interest. The tragedlan finds in his beautiful and somewhat secluded country home pleasant spot to pass the summer days in seeking relaxation and physical strength from the exactlng duties of his professional travels.

 Our Pine Bluff neighbors are ex- erting themselves to the utmost to make the Jefferson County Fair tt big success. The exhibition opens on Tuesday next and contin ues until Saturday. X splendid program has been arranged and all promises will be faithfully carried out. The man. agement is made up of the sond eiti- zens of the Bluff City, and the F. P. feels justified in assuring its readers that no fear need be felt on this score. We have every assurance that Stuttgart citizens will he more than welcome, and no doubt this county will return thecompliment ofa fairly liberal attendance of Pine Bluff peo- pie on our Fair held last week."
 We beg to assure our neighbor that aii will be welcome.
