Thefr | father was a Chinaman; their moth- | ev had been am Anerieaa school teacher who bad converted him and | Married him, Lee was oné of the richest men Im the islands. He had brought up bis daughters with every luxury. The fee house, almost @ palace, was the resort of many a young man of wealth and position. Ex- | cept for a slight obfiqueness of their flashing, black eyes ami a dead | whiteness of sikin, the Lee girls | could not have been distinguished | from any other wealthy and weil- bred American omag women, | There was Dora, May, Mildred and Esteile. Each cf them had her lover. Epch hoped to marry, and marry well, | And thére was old yellow Lee, | crawling from his house to his of- | fice and back, wearing carpet slip- | pers at home, eating with chop ; Sticks—but he ate his heathen | Meals In his own room. The girls | adored their father, but— | “He's so out of things,” sighed Dora. “He's never learned to ad- | Just himself, and he doesn't care.” What was going on bebind those | inscrutable Mongolian eyes? was thinking; he was the shrewd- est man in the islands. One day he announced a dinner | party. Lee's announcement amoant- | ¢d to a command, The four young men were asked—nobody else. | There was Clafin, the young naval | Officer; Hershfield, whose father } owned several hundred acres of Pineapple plantation; Jackson, a cannot imugine how | thing keep him from going to the! thriving young business man, and | Howard of the civil service. . The Lee girls had good sense, and dis- eriminated in the selection of their admirers, It was a Chinese-American ‘ban- quet, and the wine—Lee always’ had good wine—was excellent. The party grew merry. Old Lee’s. black eyes wrinkled up in amusement and pride as he surveyed the gathering. What a change from the padd; flelds in which he had walked, a barefooted boy, long years before. After the banquet a visitor was announced. It was Mr, Gregson, a local lawyer who had charge of Lee's affairs. Lee stood up. He had hitherto spoken, pidgin English —it had been. so hard for his, Gnaughters to get into communica tion with him, But now a sort of mask seemed to have fallen from him, and his accents were as mel- liflious as those of a Harvard man. That was what shocked every- body into silence. “Well, gentlemen,” Lee bezan, “you have come here at my invita- tion tonight, and we have had a good time together. I now propo: that each of you sign a marriage contfact which is being drawn up. Upon your marrying my daughters, ‘a settlement of two hundred thou- sand dollars is made upon each of you. My daughters are similarly provided for. If any of you gen- tlemen wishes to draw back—” “No, no!” they shouted. . The contract was drawn up and signed. Another: visitor was an- nounced. It proved to be a clergy- man, 4 “Gentlemen,” said Lee, marriage Mcensea have already \been. pro- cured, The marniages will now be solemnized.” 4 Twenty minutes later.the four \Lee girls looked blushingly Into the faces of thelr four astounded and delighted young men, | “Gentlemen,” said Lee, “my home is yours for your honeymoon, All rrangements have been made.

URGES “CA F FOR ROBBERS London Official Says Brutal Crimes Would End if Ofd Method of Punishment Was Restored, Spain first adopted the “garrote” for the execution of criminals. This was a collar compressed by a screw, which caused death by piercing the spina! marrow. In London some years ago footpads pursued a some what similar method, one nearly ~auffocating the victim while the other ransacked his pockets. The popularity of this form of cciminal- | ity was oblit@ated by the infliction | of the “eat” upon all rogues proved to have become garroters. Recently ‘at the Old Bailey, which court ex- ercises urisdiction over from corder, Sir Ernest Wild, K. C.. en- | tertained a number of American lawyers, and, in the course of his speech, he expressed regret that In England there was such prevalence | of crimes of violence, which might be the aftermath of the war. The ertme of robbery with violence, he ; added, had been greatly reduced during the last year by the inflic- tion of the “cat” in proper cases: | Certain ruffians, with no respect for | age or sex, who committed these crimes, could only be fittingly pun- ished in this way. He had no doubt | 4¢ the “cat” could be inflicted for sarmed borglary the same hapoy te j sult would follow. Used Ol! in Old Babylon. The oil industry had its birth in the United States about 1858, when crude ofl was analyzed and a well was drilled at Titusville, Pa, But the Indians, and the, races before them, knew crude oil. Thoa- sands of years before Christ, Baby- Jonian and Chaldean masons used it ; {n semi-liquid form for cementing the bricks of their towering walls, | and {it was used In building the pyramids, says the Indianapolis News. Herodotus mentions a well ‘from which three substances—as- phalt, salt and oil—were pumped. was used in lamps.in the temple of Jupiter at Rome, and the wealthy filuminated their homes with’ it. The anelent Chinese and the Per- sians used it for light and heat, and it enters into the preservatives the Egyptian embalmers. First Ghetto Was in Italy. The ghetto was the Jewish quar- ter of an Italian city. Pope Paul TV, in 1556, established the ghetto of Rome, and it existed until 1885, when it was rerhoved to make way for the new embankment of the Tiber, The Jews were at.one time closely confined to that section of the city, and were not allowed out- alde its limits unless distinguished from the Christians by wearing, the men a yellow hat, and the women a veil of the same color. The ghetto was inclosed by a wall, and the -gates thereto were locked at night, TRAVEL BY WATER CHUTE Flume Filled With Water Offere Thrille in Small Boat in Moun. tains of Sierra Nevada. In the mountains of Sierra Ne- vada, the water chute, or flume, ts: used as a means of.traveling from bne spot to. another, is V-shaped made of wood. It stands on w Nn trestles, some-| times, where it crosses deep ravines, of immense height.
