groups in the whole magnificent scene

New Haven, March 22-One of the most prominent figures, in past years fin the maritime life of this city, Cap tain Frederick J. Peck, passed away at his home in New York city yester- day. Captain Peck had been in the employ of the New Haven Steamboat Company for 27 years, running on the following steamers, successively: Tray eler, Elm City. Continental, c. H. Nor tham and taking charge of the Rich ard Peck when she first went into commission. He was born in New Haven about 67 years ago. the son of Captain Richard Peck. also prominent in the stearnboating interests of New Haven. He was educated at the Rus- sell school in New Haven. He was married to Miss Eleanor Forester Colt, daughter of Rev. Burton $. Colt.
 He is survived by his mother and one brother, Richard A. Peck. of 363 Elm street. He had been retired from actual service since 1S9S

RUPPERTS BEER.
Remarkable Growth of the Bottling
 Industry.

In the past few years great i'm provements have been made in all branches of industry. Inventors are constantly working to perfect improve ments in machinery that will revolu- tfonize the manufacture or some arti- cle and in all lines of trade modern systems and labor saving devices are being adopted
 The greatest achievements in. this direction have probably been made in the bottling industry. Modern and sanitary methods and unhygienic pro- cesSes that were for years employed by bottlers and in the bottling of beer this has been especially noticeable. The public has been quick to recognize and appreciate the wonderful strides that have been made, and the con- sumption of bottled beer, has -increas- ed enormously.
 One of the foremost and most ag- gressive bottlers in the country is Jacob Ruppert, the New York brewer whose new bettling establishment is the largest and most modern in the east. MT. Ruppert has caused many Improvements to be effected in con- nection with the bottling of Ruppert's s famous beers which have gained for these products an enviable reputation Tn the big New York bottling plant rigid observance of sanitary laws is a concrete fixture. The bottling de- vices represent the cleverest inven- tions of the present day. A force ot 25O men is constantly employed to promote the betterment of Ruppert brewery bottling and serve the public with the enromous output necessitat- ed by the demand for this popular product.
 A surprising figure is the immense quantity of filtered water used in cleaning and rinsing bottles, which is over 75.000 gallons daily. One half million bottles is the daily production of the Ruppert plant which for mod ern equipment has no superior in the country. A pleasing feature of Rup- pert's beer and something denotative of the extreme cleanliness and positive preservation of every good quality is the fact that not once from the time of brewing until the beer reaches the consumer does it come in contact with the air.
