Bresnahan. the catcher for the
Giants, has invented shin guard. Last
season Bresnahan's legs from the
knee down were black and blue where
he was peppered by foul tips while

ity Japan really is. the sight on
the bay at this point is an object
lesson we'll worth while to OBJ
serve, They we're coaling a big
steamer as we came in. and
spent nearly an hour watching
the peculiar manner in which this
task was accom- lisbed. Those
who have formed a part of the old
time bucket line at a6re in a town
where there is no fire apparatus
will remember how the line is
formed from the we'll to the fire
and the buckets are passed along
from hand to hand until they reach
the burning building. That is
the wav a vessel is coaled in
japan, only the coal is passed in
baskets and the passers are WON.
en-. with just a sprinkllng of men
in the line. The baskets of coal
are passed up the side of the
steamer and along the deck to the
hatch, down which it is poured,
. the baskets then being thrown
over the side to the coal barge
below to be filled again. The
women in the line sway rytbmic.
ally from side to side. with arms
outstretched to take the basket,
they barely touching it in its pas.
sage on to the next woman.
The. work is arduous In the ex.
treme, and many of the women
break down under the strain.
Most of these women are compar-
atively young. but among them
can be seen faces drawn, and
wrinkled with age. Woman in
japan is the beast of burden. and
one may see them at all times
struggling along under heavy
loads. tilling the fields, and do
ing all sorts of animal labor usual
ly performed bv men. will say
this much for the men. however,
thew work too. and are to be seen
working hard side by side with
the women. In this country the
people are extremely poor. even
noted army and navy officers live in
style that would be considered
discredtable for a laOoring man in
America. japan, with her thirty
odd million people is so densely
populated that it is impossible for
the country to maintain pny but
the very wealthy in a style that
Americans would consider good
living.
Cost of living in japan is mar
Svelously cheap At least it appears
SO to one who has been accustom
led to paying for the high priced
things of civilization. Here one
may hire servats for a few cents
a day, and these servants will
provide for themselvs. All food
products, especially fish and veg
etables, are very cheap. and
american flour costs no more here
than in the United States, not
.withstanding the fact that it is
shipped clear across the ocean to
market. Yet with all the cheal
ness of living the people of Japar
are constantly threatened with
starvation, and with the slightest
shortage of crops they suffer. The
g reason the women work on the
docks at such labor as coalins
ships is because it is their only
means of obtaining a living. and il
they did not do it they woulc
starve to death. The population
problem Of Japan is a vital one
and one Of the reasons for th,
present attitude of Japan towarc
Corea is the necessity for finding
au outlet for the surplus peopl,
of the empire.
Conditions in Japan as a resul
of the recent war with Russii
