CHINA BRIDE IN BONO.
Journeys From Canton To Marry
the Man She Lovas.
Miss Kyai Lei has crossed continents
nd seas and has traveled forty days
ind forty night", that she might marry
the Chinaman she loves. And she has
not reached him yet.
Miss Lei rested in New Orleans last
night, the first break in her long, wear
isome journey from Canton, China.
She is a Chinese maiden, 18 years of
ige. She is plump, petite and pretty.
Her cheeks are round and her oval
?s shine with a luster that fairly
sparkles.
In Canton Miss Lei belonged to the
1X. One can easily discern that fa t
from the clothes she wears and the
trunks she has with her. This hat py
fiancee has three large trunks and two
chubby arms full of bandboxes and
Oriental parcels.
She is bound for Boras del Toro, re
public of Colombia, where she goes to
marry the man of her heart, lie is a
Chinaman. He Is one of half a dozen
In the place, and between his washee
washee establishment and his bnrma
plantation has made heaps of silver.
Miss Lei will share the fortune, but
that is not why she has come all the
way from Canton it was because she
loved. She told the interpreter so.
The oldest Chinese Immigration men
say they have never known of a Chi
nese girl 16 years old traveling su-h a
distance to marry her beau Ideal. That
Is why Miss Lei has attracted atten
tion all along the route.
Every one has guessed that this was
one of the first romances of the an
cient Flowery Kingdom, and they were
right. In this little bundle of human
ity is concealed one of the most daring
lo-e stories Cupid has ever Inspired.
This young subject of the empress
dovager Is as modest as a baby, but as
determined as can be. She loved thlB
China boy. He grew up and his par
ents said there was no room for him
in China, and he was bargained off to
one of the societies sending Chinamen
to the United States.
Months passed and Miss Lei had 5io
word from her lover. Finally he was
located iff Bocas del Toro, the little
fruit port on the South American
coast, where In the four years he ha
done well. If he should have attempt
ed t ogo to China and claim his bride
there might have been trouble over
their return, as the regulations are very
strict of late. So she said she would
come to him, and although the smart
set In Canton's Chinese society was aw
fully shocked at the young lady's des
perate undertaking, she was undaunt
ed. That Is why Miss Kyai Lei, chaper
oned by an aged Chinaman, arrived In
New Orleans In bond. She is passing
through the United States with te
government seal upon her, and sevenl
inspectors have taken an oath not to
allow her to escape. From all appear
ances there is no danger.
Miss Lei was one of a special passen
ger car full that was brought in by
the Southern Pacific from San Francis
co. They were all In bond.
INVADE A BAR ROOM.
Women Quietly Stay hi Saloon Un
til It Closes.
Peru, Ind. Specl8l.) In order to ob
tain a license for a saloon James Oliver
of Macy went to the extreme end of
the county line and published the re
quest notice In a Converse paper, and
there being no subscribers in the vi
cinity of Macy to find out what he had
done, ihe regular people who have sign
ed remonstrances for years were not
prepared for his petition. No remon
strance was filed and Oliver appeared
before the commissioners, proved pub
lication and was granted a license.
That night he had a grand opening,
which was patronized by a goodly num
ber and things were in high giee until
p. m., when fifteen of the leading
women of the town entered the saloon
and gave notice of their determination
to remsin until the saloon was closed
Persuasion on the part of Oliver and
his patrons was futile, snd as a last
resort Oliver gave the men cigars, with
the understanding thst they were to
moke the women out. which was tried,
but the women stood their ground hero
ically and remained until 11 o'clock,
when the saloon had to be closed ac
cording to Isw.
The women left, but served warning
they would reeat the performance so
long as the men persisted In loafing
In the saloon in preference to staying
at home with their families.

ABOUT THE PHILIPPINES.
Some Interesting Facts Relative
To Those Islands.
Manila, with its tiO.000.000 trade, its
UO.OoO population and its position us
the metropolis of Luzon, will require
a larger force of officials. In this island
alone there are 123 cities having a pop
ulation of from 9.W0 to 40,000 each, In
addition to 1SS cities having a popula
tes of less than 9.000 and more than
4.000 er.ch. To administer the govern
mental affairs of this single Island, with
Its 3.500.000 inhp.bitants. will require
on a con.servatlve estimate the services
of 8,500 oltViala, at an annual cost of
fj.f.oo.ooo. This asFlrns only one officio.!
to each 1,000 population, which olt!cl:il
nuit be a sort of cornimslte pommis
ter. revenue collector, julee and clerk
of all work, snd he must be satisfied
with an average salary f $1,000 a year.
In Mindanao, with its 610.0J0 population,
there are only eight large and eighty
four small rltks. but in Cebu there
ate twenty-four cities over 9,000 and
sixty cities under that figure, with a
total population In the Island of 504.000.
The Island called Panay has 671.000
souls, with thirty-four cities over the
S.000 mark and sixty-one under that
figure. These aie not savage shacks,
but centers of industry, of agriculture,
and of commerce, many of them with
cathedrals, schools, palaces, telegraph
and postofflce. Between 9,000.000 and
10.000,000 people occupy the Philippines
The market reports of Manila are In
teresting as showing the cost of sus
taining life In the luxuriant tropics.
The prices are quoted in Mexican sli
ver, which is about half the value of
American gold. Potatoes cost 5 cents
a pound and onions 10 cents. Cabbages
sell for 23 cents a head and pumpkins
are worth 30 cents apiece. Fish Is cheap
but. strange to say, fruit is high. Ba
nanas sell for 25 cents a dozen and
oranges for 25 cents a dozen, while one
large Chinese orange costs 22 cents, and
cocoanuts are worth 8 cents each. Some
of the fish are unknown to our mar
kets. There are the dorado, the dapa,
the bocadulce and asasa, which will
be news to Americans. The bocadulce
Is the most expensive fish on the list
and sells for 40 cents each. It ought to
be good, for its named translated means
"mouthsweet." A first 'grade hen In
the Manila market wils for $1.10. The
regulation of the markets in Manila
seems toViave been the object of sev
eral experiments since the American
troops have occupied the city.

New York City still has fifteen street
rar lines operated by horses, and even
has the bobtail car drawn by one hotse.
This Is one of the great sights of the
"metropolis of America." Some of these
horse car lines are Important ones,
among them the Belt Line. The ferry
lines arc seived by horse cars.
The building' at Guthrie, Okl., In
which most of the territorial oflicea

the injuries did not prove serious.
Four hundred elk tusks were sold In
Spokane, Wash., the other day for $1,
000. The demands of the members of
the Order of Elks and the growing

The state of New York recently built
a short railroad, costing $M,iX0, from
the Hudson River State hospital at
Poughkeepsle to connect with a rail
road operated by Kussell Sage, so Jhat
the cost of getting coal to the Insltu
tlon would be lessened. Now the hos
pital authorities have summoned Mr.
Sage to court on the allegation that,
despite an agreement, he has so raised
the freight rates on his road that the
coal costs more than It did before.
The mennry of Caesar, a Great Don
that belonged to Mrs. T. B. M. Car
dea of Germantown, Pa., but which

a great pet among the Cardeas' large
collection of animals. The dog was
buried in a fine coffin, with real silk
lining and silver handles. On the mon
ument, which is now beir.g constructed,
will be inscribed the following: "Erected

The most voluminous bill ever before
congress' is undoubtedly that providing
a civil government for the territory of
Alaska. As filed in the state depart
ment, it makes 24 pages of printed
parchment. For convenience In han
dling the sheets were not fastened to
gether in form, as Is the custom, but
were divided into six parts and each
of the six parts were placed in a thin
wooden box. Five of these coverings
were each fastened with the traditional
red tape, while the sixth, which con
tained the concluding page of the bill,
to which the president aftlxes his sig
nature, was provided with a sliding top,
so that its contents could be easily re
moved. A BACHLOR'S THOUGHTS.
New York Press: If a thin woman la
rich, she is only slight.
The closer you get to her the more
far-away look the girl gets.
A man's ambition Is to be noted; a
woman's to be noticed.
No man knows what It means to suc
ceed with a woman till he has failed
with on.
A woman csn conceal her age, but
when a man plays golf he has got to
show his legs.
The best wsy for a woman to get rid
of a man she doesn't like her husband
to like I to treat him too nice.
There Is never sny hope for a man
after his wlfs gets so she thinks she
can pick out his clothes best for him.
If a man apologized to company for
his wife cooking half as much as sh
does herself shs would go home to baf
mother.
