PHILIP SIMMS WASHINGTON, Aug. 19.—The pot-tummied “good luck” joss of Swatow, China, ones more bas fallen down on his job. Hongkong dispatches report 28,000 deaths in a typhoon which ewept the Chinese port, damaging or de atroying every house in the sity. Just a year ago I was in Swatow. ‘The native proprietor of the Swatow hotel, the only place tn the town of 60,000 where a foreigner could find lodging, directed me to a Chinese photographer—a fellow named Ton. “Swatow,” he told me, “have much bad luck, Just before you come we have big explosion. Powder blow up. Kill hundreds, I show you my pictures.” Tom showed me. It seemed al- most every house in town had been hit, “nd everywhere among the debris were the ghastly, distorted forms of the mangled dead. “Before that, Swatow had big fire. Before that, Swatow had bad earthquake, Before that, big tidal wave. Before that, bad famine. Before that, terri ble typhoon, Swatow have got bad jons.” Swatow seems to be cursed, tn- deed, dempite the fat and smiling #04 in her principal joss-house, This is the typhoon season and fwatow is directly in the path they usually take, They rise down around the Philippines, swing northwest, then north up the China coast, car-| trying death and destruction in their wake. Circling toward the nerth- west they pass out into the Pacific jagain, and woe unto the ships that get in their way! Swatow is a bustling port never. theless and notwithstanding.
