At night the hen crawls into the box which lientler has provided as the pup's quarters, and spreads her wings over him as if he were the prettiest and daintiest chick ever hatched.

ST0P-- - Beneath the old Pell mansion, which Is situated on the lake shore just below the site of the fort, and which is also being restored to its former grandeur, an interesting old bull's-eywatch was found soon after the work was started last November. On the site of the fort enough pieces of pottery have been found to make a complete service, and duplicates of these are being made at great cost, for the Interesting old pattern Is very hard to reproduce. The most of these pieces were found directly below the old messroom. One pottery punch bowl which has been found In a fine state of preservation bears upon the bottom the inscription: Success to Gen. Amherst," and has been Identified as a punch bowl given him by friends In New York before his campaign in the Lake Champlain country.
