both the front and rear doors had been
broken and a quantity of liquors and

notified the police yesterday morning.

Police officer Moriarity responded, and
calling the patrol wagon had the infant
conveyed to the Central Emergency
Hospital. The child. was examined there
and the physicians in attendance gave it
as their opinion that the boy was not
more than three days old. He was place
in charge of the nurses, and soon made
friends with the rubber end of a nursing
bottle to his evident satisfaction.
There was nothing about the infant to
Indicate it's maternity. 1t was warmly
clothed in the usual accessories of a
baby's wardrobe. A pink and white
striped tennis flannel r;ghtgown, white
llama cloth coat and an infants cap, also
of white material, were on the infant.
Fritz Sheet, the bedmaker, says:
A woman came to the house three nights ago
last night did not pay much attention to
her, but she was pretty we'll dressed. 1 showed

came and rented the front the first

her.

found the baby in the bed It looked as as, if
but it was not much mussed. did not hear
anybody come in or out during the night, and
the woman who rented the room had nothing
in her hand
According to Sheet, the woman seemed
pleased that a dim lamp was the only
means of lighting the room, the gas usu-

house, one on Mission street, the main
entrance, and a second one at the rear
used in common by a number of adjoining
buildings of the same character.
The theory of the police is that the
woman after engaging the room went out
and secured the infant and hushed it to
sleep, or that it was brought to her By
some person from the outside who was
made cognizant Of the location of the
room.
The infant will be sent to-day to Mount
ST. Josephs Infant Asy lum unless the
mother is located in the meanwhile.

During the trial the craft was not

the trial. A triangular course was ar
ranged and the spectacle was witness

product Of American shipbuilders. It
was constructed by the Cramps at
Philadelphia and guaranteed to do at

showed that she could do II without

whara Towns Look Alike.

The inland country towns of Austria
liza bear a strict family resemblance
to one another. There is a single main
street with a few small ones leading
out of it, and the houses are all of one
story and rooted with iron. The three
or four public buildings, however, are
generally Of a substantial and some
times of an ambitious design, and the
Inhabitants are very proud Of them.
A park and a newspaper complete the
public institutions. Each township
forms the centre Of a scattered COM
munity that collects there at frequent
intervals for a horse race, a cricket
match or similar gathering. A ride
of thirty or forty miles is thought
nothing Of in a country where you
may see a beggar on horseback. AS
you proceed inland the population is

there Is a continual protest against
him by every person in whom the
public takes an interest. But the bio
graph aend, who is threatening the
peace Of notables, Is much worse.
kaleidoscope pictures are about to be
put within the reach of everyone. A
London concern has established a
studio where people may go to have
moving pictures taken of themselves,
just as they now go to be photograph
ed, and a cheap apparatus for the re-
production Of films is sold, which,
while not SO good as those used in the
theaters and nickel-in-the-slot devices
yet answers the purpose. The manag-
er Of the studio says that it is in de-
mand for weddings. The bride and
bridegroom, bridesmaids, best maj
and all the rest are photographed
while the wedding ceremony is being
performed, and the happy pair and
their friends have copies of the films
as souvenirs of the occasion. But this
Is not the worst. A cheap biograph
machine has been invented, by which
person may take hundreds Of snap
shots of anyone whom he chooses, and
reproduce them. 1t is but natural for
the owner Of a few biograph strips tc
want other films for his machine.
The worry to public people will be
great. They will be the sufferers. For

The Story of a Musical Prodigy.

Elbridge r. Gerry's fixed conviction
that the use Of children~as public en-
tertainers is ruinous to their moral
and physical being has resulted In
much benefit for talented youngsters
and in a deluge Of abuse for their pre-
tectors. Several years ago he called
in the aid Of the law to prevent the
performances Of a child pianist. The
child was admitted by all qualified to
Judge to be marvelously talented, and
as the young prodigy seemed to be
well cared for, the outcry against the
society was loud and long. But Mr..
Gerry never finched, and the law up
held him. Shortly afterward the child
was taken to Europe, and the episode
faded from the public mind. Ten years
later the same pianist reappeared, now
in the vigor Of youth. His musical
gifts had been developed under the
guidance Of the most accomplished
foreign instructors. The public won
dered and admired, but few knew that
the musician owed the training in his
art to the generosity of the man who
had restrained him from concert play
ing ten years before.-Ainslee's Maya.
