Several years ago a number Of German
workmen came to Connecticut by pre-
concerted arrangement and obtained EN-
ployment in the clock factories in New
Haven, Ansonia, Waterbury, Thomaston
and Winsted. They worked steadily for
a long time, applied themselves diligently
to mastering the science of cloCk.making,
and became proficient in the art of hand
ling the fine tools necessary TO the work.
They also purchased the tools and several
of the complicated machines, and, re-
turning to Germany, they began the
manufacture of clocks for themselves.
They set up factory in the Black Forest
region, and their business now amounts,
according to letters recently received in
New York city TO nearly $4,000 clocks a
month. This German factory has proved
close competitor with the Connecticut

An Authors Retreat.

A number of charitable New York peo-
pie are organizing a society in that city to
be known as the Home Hotel Associa-
ton. 1t is the fulfllment of plan pro-
posed few months ago in consideration
of brain-workers in misfortune. The
fact is no longer disregarded that cases OF
extreme privation are not uncommon
with the class in New York whose livei-
hood Is dependent on the pen. With
more than 6,000 such writers in the city,
it is the natural expectation that some
variable proportion of these should suffer
from temporary adversely and that 9TH
tellectual work should sometimes be
found in hopeless circumstances of need
in old age. A house in New York suited
to the uses of the Home Hotel is the
object of chief present importance sought
by the association,

JAPANESE BATHROOMS.
They are as Open TO the world as tn
Kitchen

They are as Open TO the World as tho
Kitchen.
The bathroom of japanese inn is as
public and open to the world as the
kitchen, generally without any door, and
with glass walls or screens at the most.
In passing through to the rooms, back or
going upstairs, one always has the bath
in Yiew-often n large tank, where three
or four can sooiably dip together. From
the late afternoon until midnight, or
later there is always splashing in the
bath room, and the steam issuing from
its open door, MS the nptiyes stand inn
mersion in boiling water with the great
est glce, and always have IL at geyser tenn
perature. Often the tub is n small one,
and then several people take turns in the
same bath water.
Foreigners being known to be queer on
the subject of bathing, preferring to batho
alone and unseen, and TO have fresh
water each time, are generally Invited
in first. The master, as they call the
masculine head of our party, says n
woman correspondent of the Globe. Demo
oydt, was invited to the bathroom at
Mishima at 3 o'clock the first afternoon.
He found II a doOrless, glass sided apart
ment, but the landlord quieted him by
bringing in folding screen about three
feet high and setting IL between the tub
and the general view of the office CORR
dor, garden and main street.
too vigorous sweep of the bathers
arm knocked the screen down, and the
foreigner had to drop TO his chin in the
water and call for help. The two girls
who were sorting tea ran in and set the
screen up, as coolly and as much without
thought as home servant would go in
TO put the blower on the parlor crate.
There are narrowing stories still handed
down of the experiences of early travellers
IN the interior who had the whole tea
house and town crowd to the bathroom
of an inn, and filled the air with their
admiration of the beautiful white skin of
the foreign bather.

Gently reviewed the progress of the young
women in the institution since it became
co.educational. There have only been
twenty-seven women graduated since the
beginning of the new departure, and they
have stood far above their men compan-
ions. Three causes are given for this
earnest desire for an education, are in.
spired to study because of their few num-
bers and the prominence it gives them,
and there is less to draw them from their
books, such as athletics and kindred mat
ters. While the students have been di-
yided on the question of co-education,
they have always shown the young
women the greatest courtesy. The prin-
ciple of co.education is growing in favor,
