The Jap Baby.

How do you suppose the babies in Japan take an airing? In baby car riages, you say? Of course not. The Japanese never do anything the way we do it. When the baby's about three days old it goes out for its first glimpse of the world strapped on somebody's back, and that's the way it goes every day till it can go on its own feet. Sometimes it's mother or its. nurse takes it, but very often it rides on the back of a brother or sister, who is per- haps not more than four or five years old These little nurses don't seem to be troubled at all by their charges. as you would suppose. They play ball and tag and run races and fly kites in spite of the heavy loads on their backs. What is more remarkable, the babies are perfectly, happy and hardly ever cry, though when their young nurses run with them the poor babies faces bang back and forth against their care takers shoulders till an American baby would howl with pain and rage.-Ber- tha Runkle in St. Nicholas.

O'ROURKE READ
 THE RIOT ACT
Some Necessary Discipline Handed Out
 to His Reca.citrant Players.

Manager O'Rourke of the local base ball team was in uniform on the play CTS bench Wednesday watching the miserable exhibition of ball dished out by the local players against Hartford. the final score being H. He first told Jimmy Deegan that it was his turn to go. into the box. but that player de- nlurred saying that he was not feeling well. Artie Romer was next called on and started to pitch. He clearly show ed to the spectators that he was not making an effort. but managed to get along for five innings. till he forced in a run on four bases on balls. This was enough for Manager ORourke who yanked Artie out and sent Pollard in to do the work The "Rube'' was tors finding him easy
 In the field the players put up a dumb exhibition when not making errors doing almost as bad. They act ed like lot of dead men. being hooted at by the spectators. It was after the contest. in the dressing room that the riot act was read. O'Rourke told them that he was given to understand that some of the men were playing for their releases He knew that they had base ball in them and was going to bring them out. He threatened to suspend some of the men without pay. and even went so far as to put Artie Rom CT on the bench for two weeks without pay. He also handed the can to Jim- my Deegan. The other men were told to get into the game and prove they were live men. McKenna was benched and Rube Pollard placed on first as that young mans batting has been a big feature. Miller and Hit requested that they be shifted. their request be- ing granted When Miller came here last season he came as a short stop or a second baseman.
 Manager O'Rourke gave his players. to understand that he was paying more in salaries than other managers and he proposed that the public of Bridge port should get run for their money. Jim is dead right: he has been alto gether too easy with his men.

IMPROVEMENT IN WORK OF THE
 ORATORS
6ibbs in Rare Form and Authors Go
 Down to Defeat.

The Orators at Newfield Park yes terday afternoon Hit and Miller chang ing places and Pollard taking Mo Kenna's place on the first station de- feated Waterbury 3-1- The change worked well. Little Jimmie Gibbs was again on the slab and he held the slugging Authors down to five hits two of which with an error in the opening session scored their only run. The fielding features were contributed by Frank Hilt on third base who on two occasions ran out into left field pulling down Texas leaguers. Captain Ladd did most of the coaching for the locals. putting that pepper which they have heretofore lacked into the proper places. The players played with a snap and vim which was a treat to the loyal fans who had journeyed to the park every game this week and had been disappointed in the work of the home aggregation.
 One each for each in the first, Cote was out Hilt to Pollard Nichols was safe when Miller fumbled his grounder. McAloor threw Nichols out stealing second and came home on Bronkie's hit to left Doherty out on a fly to Ladd. For the Orators, Steinhauser singled. reached second when Sfllery let Bannon's sacrifice go through him. Hilt sacrificed both men along a base. Ladd hit to the pitcher. Steinhauser beating the throw to get him at home. Miller went out on a foul fly to Mo Donald. Pollard hit to the pitcher go- ing out at first.
 It was out in order for both teams till the latter part of the seventh. Mo Aloor led off with a double to right Gibbs placed a beauty bunt along third base line which he beat out. The throw by Bronkie was also wild, Gibbs taking second and ~McAIoor scoring Three outfield flies kepS Gibbs on sec ond-

The ortrtn.l Frutt Canner.

We are indebted to Pompeii for the great industry of canned fruit. Years ago, when the excavations were just beginning, a party of Cincinnatians found in what had been the pantry of house many jars of preserved figs. One was opened, and they were found to be fresh and good. Investigation showed that the figs had been put into jars in heated state, an aperture left for the steam to escape and then sealed with wax. The hint was taken, and the next year fruit canning was in troduced into the United States, the process being identical with that in vogue at Pompeii twenty centuries ago.

An English countess who has many American friends recently became a vegetarian. The other day in a letter to New York she accounted for her abandonment of flesh food.

OPENING OF NEW ADDITION TO
 RUPPERTS B0TTLING PLANT

The bottling department of Jacob Ruppert is located on Third avenue and s0th street. one block south of the brewery and covers an area of 100 feet
 on Third avenue and 200 feet on 90th street. The building is three stories high and is a model of its kind-and is the largest Botting House in the East.
 This new building was made neces- sary by the constantly growing bus mess of MT. Ruppert's Brewery; in the last three years the Bottling De- partment has taken such great strides that the old building was found to be altogether inadequate to meet the demands made upon it. Taken from a business point of view, it is most inter esting to note the development of this branch of the Brewery, and as a con- sequence this new building, which is one of the most sanitary Bottling Houses in the world, was deemed nec- essary. A force of over 200 men is tical and sanitary methods employed are worthy of observation.
 The beer is stored and aged in inn mense glass-lined steel tanks and is drawn from there directly into the bot ties, without coming into contact with the air-thus precluding the possibil- ity of contamination of any sort. The water used for washing, soaking and rinsing the bottles is especially filter ed and the bottles are thoroughly soaked four times and rinsed three times: the air used in connection with the machinery is also sterihzed and fil- tered, and the beer which is drawn from the large steel tanks is under carbonic gas pressure When filled, the bottles are carefully pasteurized and candled with electric lights, la- beled, wrapped in what is known as perfection wrappers, and are ready for shipment. The machinery and appar- atus used are of the latest approved patterns. and nothing seems to have been left undone to insure absolute perfection regarding sanitation and hygiene.
 The shipping department is necessar- fly busy one and is constantly grow ing An idea of its magnitude may be gathered from the fact that there are three automobile trucks, 50 wagons and 100 horses constantly employed for daily deliveries of bottled heer-

On learning that they were a present to General Kuropatkin, General Kuroki promptly dispatched them to the Rus sian outposts with a polite note end ing, May the flowers of friendship blossom high in these vases" In Ku- ropatkfn's reply he referred to the Jap anese as "a people of generous friends whom I visited in peace, of magnani- nous foes in war, at whose hands even defeat is no disgrace"

A Quaint Story.

The Irish solicitor general, speaking the other day upon delusions, told a story of a north of Ireland Protestant who was perfectly sane save on one point. This stanch Protestant harbored the delusion that one of his legs be- longed to a Roman Catholic, and there fore when he went to bed every night he used to leave the Catholic leg out side the blanket by way of punish ment
