BnbIe. and Monkeys.

A frequent action with babies is to
turn the soles Of the feet sideways, OPP
posite to one another. while the legs
remain straight. Just this attitude
would be assumed by monkey when
climbing tree or walking on branch
in order to grasp the stem with Its hind
legs.
The Inherited effects OF thus grasping
tree trunks or limbs with the hind
hands are often very marked in young
babies. The bow legs, which are a
feature of infancy and matter OF
some anxiety TO mothers, are no more
than the relics OF the tree climbing
stage, and the mother need not be
frightened about this character; any
normally healthy baby will grow out
of it soon enough.
Then, ifa young baby be held SO that
its feet touch the ground, one may see
that the feet are not put fiat to the sur
face. Instead, the outer portions OF the
feet rest on the ground, while the soles
of the feet are more or less opposed to
one another; they have the bough
grasping attitude. - Pearson's Maya

Sir Boyle Roche, famous Irish char

Greenwood the New Haven Represents

The crown prince Of Siam and his
suite was in the city on Wednesday, but
only for a short space Of time. He is
making tour of the United States
with a view of inquiring into the meth
DDS of American business men and
their many modes of manufacture
which are so superior to those Of any
other country. 1t is his purpose to visit
if possible and carefully inspect rep
resentative factory of every line of
trade in the United States. With this
end in view he and his suite yesterday
were entertained in that perfectly ar
ranged and fully equipped factory
where the famous Sorosis are manufac-
tured. Their factory in Lynn, Mass, is
modern in every particular and every
department, and the prince and his suite
We're more than favorably impressed
with what they saw and heard. They
We're shown through the immense fac
tory and watched carefully the process
of converting the necessary materials
into a perfect Sorosis shoe. This visit
was an official one. The Sorosis fac
tory was chosen by the state depart
ment at Washington as being the rep
resentative factory of the United States.
This speaks very highly for the Sorosis
shoe and is only another proof of the
superiority of the Sorosis over any
other shoe in the world No other shoe
factory will be visited by the crown
prince and the members Of his suite
during. their stay in America.
A. B. Greenwood, S14 Chapel street,
is New Ravens representative for So
rosis shoes.
The telegram of inquiry to the Sorosis
mandatory asking cas- to the visit of
the prince and the date, for the same
was from Herbert II. B. Pierce, third as
sistant secretary of state, and was add
ed to in a second dispatch from Mr..
Morgan, secretary. The Sorosis factory
officials arranged the details with the
secretary of the Siamese legation. This
having been arranged, Mr.. Pierce, third
assistant secretary Of state, announc-
ed by telegram the particulars as to the
arrival of the prince at Lynn. Accom-
panying the prince was his brother,
Prince Chakrabongse and the crown
princes suite of twenve persons.
The Sorosis entertained the visitors in
a style becoming their rank and in ac-
cordanee with we'll known Sorosis enter
prise.
As already stated the visit Of the
prince and suite was great honor to
the Sorosis mandatory.

that they might do educational work

work on Sunday. A circular which the
pastor sent out last week says: This
church teaches men and women that
they must be honest, industrious and
kind hearted In New Haven before they
can be admitted into the New Heaven"
The work on the building will be COM
pleted in about six weeks of the rest of
the seven thousand dollars can be
haised within that time, They believe
in paying as they go. A well-known
gentleman II this city, seeing their
struggles, offered about three months
ago to give them five hundred dollars
the 31st of this month, provided three
thousand dollars shall be raised by, that
date. When the proceeds from the fair
which is being held thos week are In to-
night they will still lack about six hum
bred dollars of having the three thou

cry effort to get the six hundred dollars
by Friday, October 81. Help may be
given in this direction by sending mon

Foy auditorium Of the Young Mems
Christian association Thursday night
was attended by an audience which
completely filled the pretty house. The
entertainment being for a charitable
purpose, was generously patronized
even by many who did not attend, and
in consequence quite nice sum was re-
allied which will be devoted to the car
ing for the children in the home. The
programme consisted entirely of num-
bers by Miss Short, decidedly fine mo-
nologue artist, and the Yale Glee, Banjo
and Mandolin clubs. Miss Short was
exceptionally good in her respective
numbers and gracefully responded to
several encores. The Yale clubs rem
dered their several numbers quite artis-
tically.

BIG CONTRACT GIVEN OUT.
r. ii. Pagan & Go. to Build Founda-
tions for Power Plant at Derby.

r. II. Pagan & Co. to Build Founda-
tons for Power Plant at Derby.
Derby, Oct. 31.-F. II. Pagan & Co.,
of Derby. have secured the contract for
constructing the foundations for the
new power plant of the Connecticut
Railway and Lighting company, which
is to be built on Riverside avenue, this
place.
Some idea of the size and value Of
the plant may be obtained from the
cost Of these foundations, which will be
about s65,000.
This includes the foundations for the
four powerful engines, the immense
generators and other machinery.
The plant is to be of the most mod
ern type, and will be, when complete.
second to none in the country In point
of efficiency.
Novel attachments of many kinds
will be used and among these the self
feeding furnaces, with their automatic
stokers, will not be the least interest
ing.
This attachment Is so arranged that
coal can be taken directly from boats
at the river front and conveyed to the
furnaces, which are automatically fed.
The furnaces will also be equipped
with f-cleaning CRATES, which render
it unnecessary to open the furnace
doors and prevent the ingress of cold
air.
Two of the most powerful engines
will be installed In the plant as soon as
the building Is ready for them and then
as soon as these are in operation the
two now in use in Derby will be taken
to the new plant and installed as sup
Elementary engines.
Work on the foundations will be
commenced at once and pushed as rap
idly as the nature of the work will al
low.
