TRAVELLING IN JAPAN

The train was crowded with Japan
esq., and when night came the long seat
was divided up into portions, the upper
berths were pulled down and we all
huddled into our respective hunks, men
and women mixed up together 1t was
distinctly trying to be obliged to hoist
oneself up into a high upper berth be-
fore a mixed assembly, and more try
ing still to descend in the morning
with the very incomplete toilet which
one was enabled to make in a reclining
position, but the blissful ignorance of
our japanese neighbor that there was
anything unusual in such a proceeding
considerably relieved our embarrass-
ment. His attitude and calm matter
of-factness were very reassuring, and
the wonderfully cheerful conductor
who brushed our clothes and fastened
our blouses seemed to consider himself
specially suited for the post of lady's
maid.-Wide World Magazine.

APRIL Is, 1909.
THE HEAD OF THE HOUSE

The baby was ill and the doctor or
dered that he be taken to the sea- Thls
involved the closing of the house until
the little one should be we'll enough to
return. After the wife had secured
hotel accommodations by the long-dis-
lance telephone, the man of the house
went to his room and slowly and
thoughtfully spread the entire contents
of his wardrobe upon his bed, that they
might be convenient for his wife to
pack.
He stood surveying them, deep in
meditation when his wife came into
the room and began to speak to him.
He raised his hand rebukingly. Don't
talk to me now, SUSIE don't talk to
me! l have a great deal on my mind
IL we are going to the seashore day
after tomorrow there are many things
to be done. and 1 must PLAN"
His wife, who had already tele-
phoned the butcher, milkman, baker
grocer. expressman and ticket office,
and given the maid a months vacation
and arranged with a relative for the
care of the dog, gazed at him in silence.
"A great deal on my mind" he re-
peated. Then the interrogative nature
of his wife's silence forced him to
explain.
You see," he said, 81 have got to put
a rail in the cellar window and stop

THE ORIGIN OF BILLIARDS

billiards is one of the oldest games
l know" said a sporting man, not long
ago. 1T is even older than croquet,
which was played by French kings a
great many hundred years ago. But
while billiards is old. I'll bet none of
the devotees of the worries can tell me
why billiard table covering is green"
"Well so that the red and white balls
may show up well on it," hazarded
Mr.. A.
Wrong! Billiards is merely a con-
ception of the old game of bowls, which
was played on BEAUTIFULLY green lawn.
On rainy and winter days, however,
your sportsman couldn't enjoy his
bowls. so some johnny conceived the
scheme of bowls indoors on an imita-
ton green lawn. But it was too easy
playing with the hand in such close
quarters, so the cue was introduced,
to put skill at premium, and out of
this developed the modern game of
pills"

NOT TO BE FORGOTTEN

at remark made by old Pomp, the
body servant of one of my southern
friends" he once said.
II hadn't seen Pomp for fifteen years,
and as I had grown from a boy to a
man in that time I did not expect him
to remember me, but he said, 'Howdy,
Marse Hammond, sah!' the moment he
caught sight of me.
So you remember me, Pomp, I said
Couldn't nebber forgit yo' face,

ANOTHER FOOLISH QUESTION

Dear me- said the kind-hearted
pedestrian, pausing and putting on his
pince-nez, "have you fallen through

disposition, contends that his wife has
no imagination. A writer in the Phil

thinks so. At dinner one night he

BREAKING UP OF GANG OF WEST END
 STREET TOUGHS
Three Men Already Convict ed and Another Arrested Today, All Accused of As sault in Which Koslow- skis Eye Was Gouged Out.

The efforts of Prosecutor Delaney and the police to break up the notor- ious Moraski gang resulted in another conviction in the City court this morn ing. Stephen Petrowski was the lat est victim of circumstances and the $20 and costs and three months in jail. Petrowski appealed and his bond was fixed at $2O0. The specific crime for which PetroWski was arrested was the assault upon Joseph Koslowski at Fen nelPS saloon on Railroad avenue on Dec. 15 at which time the victim was beaten and kicked and his eye gouged out The witnesses fixed the assault on Petrowski who was one of the prin- cipal assailants. He had no counsel and had nothing to say for himself.
 Petrowski was found by Interpreter August Brill. who located him at house on Hallett street. where he was arrested yesterday by Patrolman Lush. The prisoner has no regular residence and makes a living doing chores about saloons. On the night of the assa ult, Petrowski appeared in the West End and ran into the Moraski gang. He was asked if he had come out to lick the Moraskis. He denied that he had such intentions and was then invited to join the bunch as it had a job on hand. The gang then went to Fen nell's saloon on Railroad avenue and fight begun on the inside was contin- ued on the sidewalk in which Koslow- ski was badly injured.

Making of Them Adds New Industry
 to Hartford.
 Hartford Jan. 6.-The first shipment of noiseless guns ever made was made last Saturday. It consisted of four re- beating rifles of .22 caliber. Each was a standard Winchester fitted with a Maxim silencer. Old guns are being fitted with silencers, some of them com ing from remote western points. All that is required to fit a silencer to any gun is to put a screw thread on the end of the gun barrel. This forms the attachment for the silencer
 The silencer as perfected is about six inches long and weighs about nine ounces. It is made eccentric in char acter, so as not to interfere with a gums sights. No more than four sec- onds is necessary to remove the bayo- net from a gun, take the silencer from the belt and adjust it. The reverse process is just as little trouble.
