BABY SHOW AT LYRIC WILL OPEN TOMORROW

Promptly at 4:30 tomorrow after noon the long heraIded baby show which promises to be the greatest that Bridgeport has ever seen will com Inence at the Lyric theatre. The show is to continue all during the week finally eliminating in the cor onation on Saturday afternoon at which Lieutenant Governor Clifford B. Wilson will present prizes to the King and Queen of Baby Land.
 The many handsome prizes range from a $350 Rudolf Grand piano to a small neck chain, and it is expect ed that between four and five hun dred Bridgeport babies will partici- pate.

 The present show is being conduct ed by. L. M. Rich, who has held these shows all over the country and since 1891 has given away more than $1O0, ,o00 in premiums.

The surgeon was a staff officer in charge of sanitar- iurn at Agra, just across the Swiss frontier, near Lugano. The inmates of the .sanitarium pretended to be wounded men from the war fronts.
 Instead of this the police found that Mueller had been purposely sent near to the Italian frontier to watch 1ta1y's preparations for war and to discover the date of Italian mobi1ization-

Paris, March 1.-The Journal des Debats describes an exchange of mes sages between French and German soldiers. written alternately on a blackboard in the schoolroom of a village between the opposing lines
 First the Germans wrote:
 E~You French fools! Do you not realize that you are working for the English and Russians? Sign peace with us, who do not wish you harm. Answer.
 Next morning adventurous Brennan answered:
 .sYous poor idiots, used as tools for the ambition of William and the dod- dering Austrfans! Come over here; you'll find a good supper, lodging, and rest The sooner the war is ended the sooner you will rejoin your wives and children"
 The Germans replied:
 Brave Frenchmen, you are being fooled. Join us; let us fight the British together. and afterward live happily, hand in hand Answer
 The French response was brief and unprintabIe.

Umpire Byron appears to have
trouble wherever he goes. He can
not control the athletes when they
object to his questionable decisions.
And there is room enough for objec-
ton, for Byron is not a good umpire.
He has had trouble ever since the
Cubs reached st. Louis, and the diff
ficulties began before the advent of
the West Siders, though we heard lit
tie about it. His work here is remem-
bered, however. His decisions didn't
initiate against the Cubs, particular
ly. They were just generally ques-
tiOnable.
And Mr.. Byron has been drawing
pay all season, while Hank O'Day got
a job through an accident. Baseball
executives are queer humans.
In the Cupboard double bill yester-
day Byron was the target for a flock
of pop bottles and cUcUmbers. He
fired Jack Miller from the game. Mil
Ter kicked when called out. And he
was out yard. But just because
Byron has shown weakness the ath-
letes ride him. Later Zim was also
canned. Manager Bresnahan during
the second game had a burning de-
sire to lick bleacherite and started
for the stand, but was restrained.
incidentally, there were two ball
bames, each team winning. Laven-
der copied and Adams was licked.

the afternoon, outClassing all the bot

year ago by appropriating $4,000 to-
ward payment for the new natatori-
UNI at Roundup Park now nearing
completion. This fund will be turn
ed over to the committee which has
had charge Of the work.
Before the appreciation was made,
Acting Mayor Dyer asked whether or
not the building committee had ever
consulted with the special committee
from the council. Councilman Mont
gomery. one OF the members OF the
special committee, stated that he had
the general committee
on an inspection trip several times
and had been invited on several 9TH
er occasions when he could not go.
Phelps stated that he
and Councilman Cole. the other two
had assisted the committee
in revising the plans to cut down the
expense. Councilman Cole stated
that he had not been near the work
since it was begun.
The matter Of payment for the
north side park strip was brought up
last evening by Councilman Murphy.
He recommended that, in order that

property, the city issue warrants in
$500 denominations payable at the
option OF the council and bearing six
