The elite of Mott, Doyers and Pel S; ..ts poured down to -Pier No, 1, North River, where the big steamer Grand Republic was hooked up, all aflow with flags and guarded by the metropolitan police, headed by, Michael Hurley, known as “Handsome Mike.” About 8,000 of the elect of the Ori- ental set and their friends lowered fhe s!camer to her paddle boxes. The fay youth of Chinatown were in evi- dence in business suits and linen and duck and straw hats, and the bon- ton of the feminine Doyers Street feaders of fashion were arrayed in rainbow shades. | Admission to the hoat wan by card only, which was intended to keep out undesirable whites. But there | were white women in plenty, girls in| their teens and numerous Chinese| mothers with their babies, some of them apeaking in pidgin English, meny in Chinese and most of them fm good old United States. “The Americans,” sald Mr. Charley Boyee, a& young merchant, “are friends’ and neighbors of the mer- ohants and neighbors’ children. The organization is the Gee Yin Shir As- sociation. I myself am not very well ecquainted with all of them, for I'm from San Francisco, a born Ameri- * “Native Son? queried the re Dorter. “What do you know about the Ne- tive Sons?” returned Mr, Boyes, with @ smile. “Also hadl from San Francisco,” re- sponded the Oriental social editor of The Evening World. “The h—ll you say!” exclaimed the smiling Oriental of the aie West. “Shake!” The last time the Gee Yin Shir went on an excursion and dance Bear Mountain was the Mecca for the merrymakers, Sure-thing white men, gunmen and pickpockets tried to butt in at the starting point but clubbed off by policemen. They then took the train to Bear Mountain but word. was flashed on ahead and the State police gave the gangsters the rush of their lives, Notwithstand- ing that the whites were driven off the picnic grounds, when the boat re- turned to the Battery that night sixty-two Celestials didn't know what time it was—thelr elmepieces had disappeared. ‘ So the police were on hand thts morning to see that the gangplank was kept clear of the gangsters. The cheap white graftens were there in plenty, but not one of them eet foot on the Grand Republic unless 0. K.'d by Obariey Lee, President of the as- sociation, or one of his representa- tives. The Oriental buds put it all over their white sisters in point of style and beauty. Most of them were born in this country and thelr grammar school English was piquant and fas- cinating. A band went with the ex- cursion—not the ordinary funerea) band with {ts toms, tams, shrieking pipes and cymbala, but @ real jazz outfit, In the grove on Roton Polnt the younger set will jazz and two-step and fox-trot. The band began its music as*soon as the Grand Republic lef, the pier and tables were set up for refreshments and fan-tan, Th flags of America, France and England flew from various parts of the excursion boat, with that of the New Chinese Kepublle fying above then all, Some one, just as tho steamer was about to pull out, cried that the Ohinese flag was upside © experts had to pies ngton’s you will 11 notonty {ft 3, but a cted lamps and WEDS: t profusion, inds and id toble erys- tal of no uncer..'n charm, OVITIGTON’S “The Cift Stop of 5th Ave” 314 Filth Ave. nr, 32d St. ead re ae __ THE EVENING " Two Hert tw tito seeident.
