Everyone knows that the American am bassador In Paris and. his wife are people of exceptional taste nrid culture. They ploved that when they were in London, the interior of their house In Whitehall being recognised among those who know "what's what" as one of the most ex quisite mansions in the metropolis. Just recently they l.avc acquired No. 5 Hue Francois Premier. Tarls. and it is being reconstructed and redecorated "re gardless of cost." Indeed, the story goes that Henry White means to make It rival the palaces of the old nobility In the Bols du Boulogne and other smart centers. Mr. and Mrs. White Intend to give at this new house some of the finest diplomatic parties which have taken place since the days of the empire. It is said to be their Inten tion to endeavor to restore to Paris the great love of Americans for the gay city an affection which la considered to be now centering fast In London.' There Is the greatest possible satisfaction In the neighborhood of Rue Francaia Premier be cause It has been favored by the American ambassador. Inasmuch as his preference for It Is sura to malm It a great center of American intercourse Und Interest. The district baa not for years been a popular one, though It U full of historic associa tions. Already the houses In this quarter are going up In price and flats therein uro at a premium. I am told the Whites still mean to keep on their London house and have no Inten tion of moving from It any of the furni ture. They contemplate making large pur chases for their new Paris residence, the interior of which will be in Louis'' XV jierlod. John Ford's f'nse Hopeless. - John Ford Is in a most critical state of health and the greatest anxiety In felt by the Cavendish Bentinck family, who have now begun to regard his condition as hope less. It Is a peculiarly pathetic case and great sympathy Is felt for the young bride (the elder daughter of that most popular woman In Knglish society, Mrs. Cavendish Bentinck), who has been .con stantly nursing her husband ever since they started on their honeymoon last win ter. You may remember the marriage wa delayed for quite a tons; time, which, It now transpires, was (n consequence of John Ford's 111 health, but hla future wifo held out against her parents' wishes and said whatever happened she would marry him. With anilety and vcare she now looks well over 30 and makes a sad figure beside her sprightly sister, who recently married Walter Burns, J. Plorpont Mor gan's nephew. Everything that can possibly be done for the invalid Is being done, and no end of money has been lavished on specialists, but to no avail. The Fords have been all over the continent, testing different 'cures'' und health resorts and someone told me that us a last resource Christian Science was to be tried. How true this is 1 cannot say. Hon Lni'M m In tiluols. w are inreatenea with a number of amusing innovations on our menus this season. A friend who dined the other night with Mrs. Braflley-Martlu says there was among the sweets u wonderful concoction of rose leaves served ,"a la chtnols" and quite toothsome and Inter esting It proved. Mrs. Bradley-Martin Is nothing If not up-to-date, but at the same time this dish is not as uncommon as it might seem, us several of the ultra smart . noau-kses nave ror some time been In troducing It. When you select your roses for "Rose Kiss you must be careful to note thut euch petal Is perfect as the smallest ble isii spoils the flavor. Each leaf Ih .lipped one by one Into bealen w lilte of egg and sugar lightly browned In the oven. Honey, suckles are treated in the same way with equally good results. The dlsli is Invari ably gsrnlxhed with the flower from which It Is made. These culinary eccentricities require a native chef to turn them out to perfection, so here, at leaat. they are never likely to be served save at the boards of the elect. Americans have Introduced us to toe dancing, and as we hate long ago decided that everything they do must be right re are about to lake to it with enthusiasm that is to sal. of course.

In consequence he gets an amount of free advertising which the old fogey doctors regard us downright scandalous and opposed to the. most aucred ethics of the medical pro fession. " But Sir James does not care for their criticism any more than Teddy does for the thrcuts of the trust magnates. He de lights in a controversial shindy.

I immoi.in.,,. I'nclo Sam's broad domain. . That Is the reason why W. Northriip Mc Millan, an American millionaire and a son of the late Senator James McMillan of Michigan, has established his headquarters In the wilds of British Esst Africa. There he has nn Immense farm which it is his ambition to make one of the most up-to-date on the globe. Just ai present he in probably In America whithei be w nt on a Hying visit a short time ago to attend the wedding in Massachusetts of ills sister to Sir John Harrington, the British minister to the court of King Mcnclik of Abyssinia. Mr. McMillan has made a reputation as a gnat traveler agd big game hunter and It Is ierhaps appropriate that he should Fettle down In what was a few years ago the least known portion of the wnrhh hut which promises soon to become one of Great Britain's most prosperous colonics. Many Countries Visited. There Is hardly a region ot the globe that Mr. McMillan has not explored. He Is as familiar with Egypt as he Is with his native town and he has followed the tracks of Livingston and Stanley In Africa. He has traveled all over South America and he has paid several visits to the froen north. His property in East Africa Is situated Hear Nairobi on the line of the new t'ganda railway. It consists of 20.000 acres and really comprises two farms, the Juju and the Juja farms. The name "Julu" Is famil iar to all readers of the romances of South Africa. It Is the name given to the terrible "medicine" or magic of the natives und Its human sucrlHces and other dark rites have furnished the basis of many a thrilling tale. It takes its name from the district now covered by Mr. McMillan's farm, and Juja Is the adjoining district In which sim ilar rites were practiced. The seat of the Great Juju, or evil spirit, is almost In the geographical center of Mr. McMillan's property. In tins district where only a few years ago degraded negroes piactlced tiitir tti rtble rites In swamps and jungles, there are today a group of the most modern buildings. An Ice plant occupies tho site of the great hut which sei v.-d as tho t-ni-j pie or Juju ana close Desiuc u is an elec tric light and power plant. Arc lamps light up what were, the dark places of the jungle end the plant furnishes power for driving mills and all kinds of electrical machinery. The natives now bring their corn to be ground In Mr. McMillan's mill on the spot where only n Tew years ago they brought their human sacrifices to Juju. The latest additions to the equipment of theee Americanised farms are two wou derful motor cars which huvo Just been completed In Englund for Mr. McMillan's farm. They have been built after Mr. McMillan's own designs and are specially constructed to meet the requirements of this out-of-the-way corner of tho world. There are no roads worthy of ihc name. Tlie only substitutes 1 for roads are thu rough paths beaten hard by the bare feet of countless thousands of negroes and decpcly rutted by the native bullock wagons. There are no bridges and the "roads" a'e frequently Intersected ot right angles by streams and rivers which have to be forded. The two cars are built so that they can ford a stream three fctt dfep without affecting tho mucninery, and they arc hung so high that lao dirpost ruts or the stumps which are found at frequent Intervals threaten no Injury to the chassis. Of course, pneumatic tlrco are Impossible In such a country and both cars ure equipped with solid tires, but the place of the pneumutlcs Is taken by extra long springs, which du their work so will and for carrying game with which the countt y abounds. Indeed. It Is estimated that there are SO.ono head of big game of various kinds on Mr. McMillen's estates. The materials of which the cars are con structed are of great Importance In tropical climates and those two cars have been built wherever possible of steel. Where It was absolutely necessary to use wood, teak has been employed, as It has been found that this wood resists tile attacks ot In sects and of the weather better than any other which Is known. A skilled chauffeur and mechanic will be taken out from England to look after the cars at first, but Mr. McMillan expects to train his native servants In their manage ment before long. There are seven hundred of these black men on his farm and his rule over them Is truly putrlarchnl. They are directed by fourteen white men. but Mr. McMillan himself when he Is In Africa holds court and settles all disputes among them, punishing wrong-doers and reward ing those who do well. Ills negroes look on him as a great magician, who can make wagons run without bullocks and grind corn without tho intervention of human labor. Harnessing; Lightning. They declare that his electric plant Is a device for harnessing the lightning and they are quite sure that he has entered Into an alliance wltlutho great Juju him self, At first they wanted to sacrifice to him as they had been In the habit of doing to Juju and It was with some difficulty that he convinced them that the white Juju did not care for such sacrifices. When they learned, however, that work pleased the great white magician and would be rewarded by him they became most in dustrious and efficient fartn hands. On his way through Paris a few weeks ago Mr. McMillan purchased a remarkable model of the Sphinx, by Mrs. David Oar rick Longworth, an American artiBt resi dent In Paris, for presentation to the Field Columbian Museum at Chicago. Mrs. Long worth was Miss Beatrice Willis of Chicago before her wurrlago and she received her AMERICAN FIRM TO THE FORE Western Push and llnstls lias litres British Contractors Severe Shock. I .ON Dux. Nov. !. (Special.) Yankee brains, Yankee methods and Yankee hustle are making themselves felt In the English building Industry. Very nearly all of tha big buildings now In the course of con struction In London are the work of the Waring White Building company, the executive heads of which are members of the big New York engineering firm of J. O. White & Co.. und today they enjoy about as nenr an approach to a monopoly of Important work In the metropolis as the Fuller Construction company of Chicago has obtained In New York and the Windy City. English buildets have awakened to the fact thnt American Ingenuity has stolen their plums while they slept, but It Is too late. From more than a dosen boardings scattered nil over' town the name of the Yankee llrm stares the Englishman In the face, and behind the boardings lxmlon s new race of buildings is arising. For besides constructing their newest buildings for them the Y'ankeo concern is revolutionizing the aspect of London's ar chitecture. For the old dtngy, begrimed buildings that crowded Its principal streets and gave It the appearance of a city years behind these advanelngMlmes, the Amerlcun Urni Is substituting pretentious modern buildings, "the elaborate fumades of which stand out with startling clearness. To realize how complete has been this conquest of London by the Waring White Building company one has only to stroll through the Strand, Cockspur street, Ald wych and riccadilly and keep a sharp eye open for the newer buildings. The Waldorf hotel, the Morning Post building, the Ritl hotel, Oceanic house, the home of thu International Navigation company und tha Waring & Ulllow new department store are but a few of the big structures which have arisen under the master hunds ot these Yankee hustlers. J. (i. White & Co. had hud somo little experience In London previous to their en trance, Into the building Industry, Inasmuch as hey built a large section of the Lon don County Council tramway system. That was tho tlrst shock they administered to the native talent and they followed it up four years ago, with the assistance of the head of the big furnishing house of Wal ing & Gillow, by entering the building in dustry. They organized a company under the English laws and went after every contract In sight with true American en ergy. Before the local bunders realized they were In the field they had captured a half duzun of the biggest jobs to bo had.
