ness"
And later, when Mrs. Sternberg
found the two fast asleep, the little

THE FIRST PERAMBULATOR.
There was time, not so many years
ago, either, when wheeled carriages
were unknown in Japan. But, with
other great changes, the jinrikisha
came into use, and though this funny
little carriage. drawn by man, might
look odd, indeed, to our eyes, yet it is
q vast improvement upon the square,
uncomfortable basket, swung upon two
poles, resting on the shoulders of four
men, in which the people were once
obliged to travel.
There are several stories about the
thought Of These stories differ, of
course, but one Of them is especially
interesting, as it has to do with an
American baby. The person who tells
it and vouches for its truth lived for
many years in Japan, and so ought to
know. 1t was after the great change
in her government and Japan had en-
tered into diplomatic relations with the
United States. An Americon Consul
had been appointed and had gone to
live in Toxic. Not many months later
dear little baby was born to him.
Of course, carriage was very socn
wanted, but such a thing was not to
be found in all Japan Japanese babies,
as you know, ride only on somebody's
back. AS he could not buy one the
Consul decided to make one, but the
question of materials was another
problem. At last one day, by rare good
luck, he found in an old blacksmith's
shop light pair of iron wheels. The
owner, to whom they had been given
by the captain Of trading ship, was
quite ready to sell them, and the Con-
sui, taking them to a carpenter. ex-
lained that he wanted carriage body
to set on them.
The United State war ship Wyoming
was in port at the time, and it's COM
mander, being greatly Interested in the
unique carriage, had it brought on
board and prettily painted and decor
ated. On the dashboard was the rep
resentation Of the American shield. and
on each side and at the back were
some very pretty sea views, so that it
really was quite a remarkable car
riage.
In it the little lady took her daily
airingS with much satisfaction. and to
curious native eyes it proved a nine
days wonder. When later the small
owner left Japan for her native land
this carriage was given to the carpen-
ter who had made it. He was smart
enough to see possibilities in it. and,
using it for a model, he set to work
and constructed a jinrikisha, and the
people liked it so we'll that he made
great many more and good deal Of
money, too.

Scared by UnlOaded Pietol.
Murderous Assault on Jailers-
Two Prisoners Driven Back
Dy n Woman WITH an
Empty Revolver.

Norristown, Pa, Jan. 24.-
Warden Abraham Gotwa's and
Night Watchman Beckwith, of
the Montgomery county Jail, were
murderously assaulted tonight by
two prisoners, who made a desper>
ate attempt to escape but failed.
The prisoners who made the
assault are Fred Bond and George
Corn wallis, both said to be from
New York. They were awaiting
trial in March, on tho charge of
larceny. Tonight CORVALLIS
called Reckwith to the cell, say
ing he believed that Bond, who
occupied the same cell, was ser,
iously i'll. Beck with summoned
Warden Gotwals, who, not sus-
pccting anything, Immediately en-
tered the cell. The instant he
stepped inside CORVALLIS closed
the door, and both prisoners seized
iron bars and pounded the warden
until he became unconscious. This
was the work of but moment.
Then the two prisoners left the
cell and assaulted Beekwith, who
had made a desperate attempt TO
help his chief. He is 20 years of
age, and was able to make but a
weak defense. CORVALLIS took
Beckwith's keys and revolver,
and the two men started for the
main entrance.
The noise of the assault aroused
others IN the Jail. Mrs. Gotwals
ran into tho corridor with a re-
volver and met the prisoners on
the way to the gate. She pointed
her weapon at them and ordered
them to return to their cells.
This, with the screams of Mrs.
Gotwals' 16-year.oId daughter,
frightened the mon, and they re-
treated. Mrs. Gotwa,s' evolver,
by the way, was not loaded.
