The tenement of No. 12 and No. 14 Pell street, in the heart of Chinatown, was once a Joan house. There they smoked opium to their hearts’ content and revelled in the dreams of the Orient. Somebody dreamed one night that an opium lamp set flre to the place and burned it down, The dream came true. Then they made a tenement house of the House of Joss, and eighteen months ago the tenement house was sacrificed on the altar of fire. There's been no hitting the pipe in the dwelling of the Chinewe four hundred since. LEE CHI EXPLAINS AND HIS WIFE EMPHASIZES, Lee Chi explained this to the Chicago sport, and his wife emphasized it. She didn't care so much for the house, but she disliked the idea of moving. The edict had gone forth that hitting the pipe meant being ispossessed, But Lee Chi wasn't going to welsh, He told his cousin from Chicago that he could tuke his blankets and go on the roof And there smoke himself to death. Fine! Quong Wo from Chi and his lamp, his dope the roof, the new Emperor of China when spasm seized him and made him turn over in his sleep.

CHICAGO, June 8.—Roosevelt’s contesting delegates were bowled over to-day by the National Republican Committee with a regularity that ‘would have put a crimp into the campaign of almost any other candidate than the Colonel of Oyster Bay. Contests in four Arkan districts, the Florida delegates-at-large and three districts in that State were settled in favor of the Taft men. By this result twenty more delegates favorable to the President were ad- mitted to seats during the temporary organization. In every case except N.Y. MAN SHOT 10 DEATH. one the vote was unanimous. The only case on which there was a Niven was from the Fifth Distric!. On this the vote stood 42 to 10. Sixteen of the eighteen votes in the Arkansas delegation are now listed for Taft. The other two—those from the Sixth District—were uncontested and are classed as “uninstructed.” Lyon of Texas and Bleber of the Dis- |) delegates would be made beginning with trict of Columbia were listed as “not Moment Lewy pe ‘ c oosevelt was to be In per- re * Senator Borah, who has thus voting. fe Pe seclt fontingent; was| 2241 communication by telephone with far led the Roo! ‘by | Senator Dixon and Mr. Perkins and algo not present thie morning, even BY |e, have made numerous sugi tions to proxy.
