Little Grand Duchess Olga Tops Peterhof Beach Scene
A London correspondent notes that Russian princesses are lively and outspoken children not cloaked in flawless perfection. Grand Duchess Olga, blue eyes and fair hair, once halted a pony carriage in Peterhof to demand salutes from sailors and a scolding officer. When the officer ignored her, she cried for her father to be told, a moment of imperial rebuke and childlike drama.

The Plumcot: Burbank’s Plum and Apricot Hybrid Achieved
In experiments by Luther Burbank the crossing of a wild American plum, a Japanese plum, and an apricot yielded a new fruit called plumcot. The fruit shows apricot form and color on the outside with flesh that can be crimson, yellow, pink, or white. Pits vary between apricot and plum. Limitations in the tree prevent wide release as work continues. The flavor is described as superior to similar fruits and unlike any previously tasted. Century notes the achievement as remarkable though not yet commercial.

A vacuum cleaner was introduced in the cloisters to dust shelves and oak carvings while a sand blast attempted to freshen the exterior but proved slow against the stone. A decay resistant coating was applied after cleaning a north-side section, but the hard weather shell is seen as natural protection.
