_ ee CHINESE BRITONS |#°W WAIT ON RED TAPE Rich British Citizens of Mongo- lian Parentage Detained Five Days on Steamer Pendipg Action at Washington. THEY MAKE ANGRY PROTEST. Both Declare that Chinese Exclusion Act, Under Which They Are Held, Does Not Apply to Those 30 n Under England's Flag. On the tar-grimed duck of tho steam- @hip Grenada, lying at the foot of Sixth street, Long Island City, Samuel Hosang, one of the wealthiest resi- derts of the British Island of Trinl- ad. has been held a prisoner of the immigration inspectors since the Gren- ada reached New York on Wednesday last. Mr. Hosang ts a Bri in Demerara, the Guiana, of Chinese nts, who were Loth British subjects. But on tho ground that he ts a Chinaman and that his landing would be a violation of the Chinese Exclusion Act, thé [m- migration inspectors held him upon the Trinidad line's pier m Brooklyn, and though h> showed a certificate trom the American Consul at Tr.nidad tes- tifying to his British birth, compell him to return to the Grenada, walch he had left. With Mr. Hosang was Alfred Rich- ards, born in Trin.dad of Chinese and English parents, a registered chemist; and he. too. ‘was forced to return to the steamship and wait the decision of the Secretary of the ‘Treasury, to whom Mr. Hosang’s credentials have been forwarded. If the Secretary re- ards the matter as one requ.ring haste Mr, Hosang and his fellow traveller may be released by telegraph. But there is a chance that it may not be reached until next week, when the Grenada sails. , Guard on Pier. Meantime Mr, Hosang and Mr. Rich- ards are confined to thelr cubin on the ship's deck, st-fled by the fumes of asphalt, which formed the Gre subject, born 1 of Brit'sh ada’s cargo, and which !s now being) placed in barrels on the pler, while @ guard stationed there by the imml- gration authorit.es stalks watzhfully up and down the landing place to see that they do not escape. The atmosphere of the dock Is stl- ing, and an Evening World reporter who threaded the difficult path through tar barrels and over sacks in piles to the steamer found Mr. Hosang and Mr. Richards seated on the Grenada's deck, whither they had gone for a breatir of air My, Hosang, a well dressed, portly ‘gertléman of fifty, whose speech is that of a well-bred Englishman, and yhose features alone betray his Celes- tial origin, told the story of his wrongs with a judicial calm that Confucius himself might have envied, but Mr Richards, who is much younger and not wholly of Chinese blood, spoke with great indignation of thelr treatment by the immigration Inspectors. "I am a British subject,” said Mr. Hosang with the familiar inflation of chest that seems tv belong with the Phrase. “I was born in Demerara, of Chinese parents, who were Byitish sub- jects, When I was very young my tamily moved to ‘trinidad, ‘There 1 ‘mado my fortune, which {s not Inconstd- erable.

CHICAGO, Sept. 7.--Lillian Bell, novelist and essayist, who acquired fame by her “Love Affairs of an Old Maid,” has a baby girl, and mother- like, she is already sketching out the young lady’s future career, turns out as mother wishes, her life will lle along these lines. The novelist “I desire for my baby neithar great beauty nor great wealth nor fame But give her a contented spirit, minis- tering hands and willing feet that her presence may radiate joy wherever nor anything to mar her happiness. “May she care nothing for society, but may she love her neighbor as Let her motto ihrough life be ‘noblesse oblige.’ “May she never know ambition nor seek to explore life’s mountain tops or steeps, either through curiosity or great yearning, but may her little feet tread tranquilly life's conimon w: “May she be cursed neither with brilliance nor wit, but give har a sense of humor, a tender tact, a gracious presence and only suilicient beauty to May the public pass her by in utter ignorance antl never know of the existence of my little maid. May she never seek her own, but let her minister always to others without thoughi of reward, Thus give her happiness in great measure, pressed down, shaken tegether and running over, and as her crowning glory -may she know the supreme joy of a great and selfless love.” Baby’s father, Arthur Hoy Bogue, is thirty years old, six years his The young lady has aiready received a proposal of marriage | from an old bachelor in Manhattan who was deeply interested in the mother’s analysis of an old maid's love story. , TEETH AND RING SAME AS SUICIDE But Mrs. Albert G.
