LIYU DOCS BROKEN HEART.
A Black Flag General Dies Of Grief
Over the Anti-Chinese Act.
From the PHILADELPHIA Press.


NEW YORK, Oct 21,-Li Yu Doc, one of
the twelve solid old merchants of China
town, died of broken heart last evening at
% Mott street, it is laid, owing to the
extreme grief he felt at the passage of the
anti-Chinese bill. 1t is said he died with a
suppressed curse upon his lips against the
imbecile representatives Of his race at
Washington. who, he said, were given up
to love-making and fiirtations and theater-
going instead of attending to the duties of
their offices. The old merchant fell into a
great passion on the very day he heard that
the new anti Chinese bill had become a law
excluding not only the new, but old resi-
dent Cinnamon from landing upon Ameri-
can shores. That very evening he became
sick and went to bed, from which he never
again rose.

his followers, escaped INTO Annama, after
several times routing the French insurgents
at Tonquin He was one of the generals of
the Black Flags at the time. He came over
t. the United States almost Immediately

chief sold out to the Emperor of China.
Gen. LII Yu boo brought with him into San
Francisco quite little foatune, which be

York a little more than a year ago.
Although in poor health, he entered into
various lines of business In two firms,
Wing Wing and Sang Chow, Mott street

He was a large stockholder in business firms
of Boston and Philadelphia.
Lii Yu Doc was 90 years old at his death.
He leaves several widows and children In

Eat What You Like and Pay.
From the Nelo York Tin

From the Net0 \ ofN IiDteS.
One of the most curious varieties Of lunch
room is down town in Broadway. No
chairs are provided, both sides of the room
being lined with shelves loaded with viands,
ali clearly marked with their different
prices. In here rush bankers, lawyers,
brokers and clerks. Each grabs plate,
knife, spoon, fork and cup, seizes what he
likes from tie shelves, bolts it standing,
reckons up his own bill, draws a check
from pile near the door for an equal
amount, presents it at the desk, pays aud
departs, unquestioned whether he had eaten
a dime or a dollars worth. The method Of
trusting TO customers honesty is iound to
nav better with the class Of men who eat
there than hiring walters. Undoubtedly q
certain quantity Is eaten that is not paid
for. but a dozen practced detectives are on
the floor during the rush hours at noon,
watching people who are suspected, and tue
amazing rapidity with which a man can
help himself, swallow and be gone, makes
the place highly popular with men who
only cat 70 live, and live only 10 hurry.

just now the crow digs for liy-
ing. and tile cornfelds are in the ar
ray frags and jags and junk bottle,
You all know the paraphernalia of
the chevaux de frise to ward off the
crow. You all remember the divers
windmills and the wonderful contrlv-
ances of the searecrow. a man up
in Leeds, however, has the call on all
such contrivances. His name is La
throp, and he has sickened the crow
so thoroughly that to-day he and the
crow are not even on speaking terms.
When planting time comes Mr.. La
throp mixes his corn up with deli
cate solution Of coal-tar until the
kernels look like licorice cough
drops. He plants this, and 10 it
sprouts and grows thrifty, and no
crow touches it twice. Mr.. Lathrop
sits by the door of his house and en-
Joys himself to see the crows come
in the early spring. They cav over
his field gleefully, as if to say that
here was corn lot without any corn
trap. They settle down and dig,
ana they swallow kernel or TWO.
They rarely swallow three. Some
thing sets them to thinking and
they drop over on the other side of
the fence and sit down and even lie
down to think. Some of them plain
ly cogitate the great conundrum, sis
life worth living p and it is said that
the woods in that vicinity are sad
with tarrcd corn that sets uneasily
on the stomach of the crow. They
never come again. A crow may for
give, but ne never forgets, and the
remembrance of coal tar on the stom-
ache is a continual sadness and q
riotous nightmare forever and for
ever.-Leloiston { Me-. Journal.

The Dog and the Bear.

Before the hunt was over I had o
chance to try him on bear, and he
was the best bear dog of his size l
have ever been out with. His hunt
ing weight was about forty pounds;
but st times he weighed about five
pounds less. When an able bodied
bear has been thoroughly frightened
and has made up his mind to leave
the country rather than climb a tree,
it takes'ap pretty smart dog to stop him
until the hunter can catch up for
shot; but Pete would often do it.
Not always, though, for the bear has
shrewd way of dragging his enemy
through the worst possible tangles of
brier and laurel brake or knocking him
loose against fallen timber, rocks, etc.
But his most effective ruse is to drag
the dog into a tangle of underground
and then throw himself over with a
sudden back flop, reaching out and
striking savagely with his fore paws ::
or, to reverse the operation, he viii
suddenly drop his nose between his
forelegs and change ends, which
draws the dog over within reach
of his claws; and it is wise wary
dog that escapes all these tricks.
Whence it sometimes happens that
Pete was left on the trail so utterly
beaten and exhausted that he had to
be helped into camp. This however
was rarely the case.
The bear when suddenly attacked
and sharply bitten would usually take
the nearest tree he came to, where
with GOODNESS and skill he could be
easily approached and shot. If only
a slight wound we're inflicted he was
apt tocome down with heavy thump
gather himself up and commence to
emmigrate in dead earnest in which
it took a good "bear team" to stop
him, and Pete was team by himself
I have known him to seize q bear by
the ham aud hang his hold, with legs
stifly braced until he was dragged
more than 100 yards at stretch.
he had a very creditable score on
bear scalps, as / subsequently learned
though we only got after three bear
while he was with me, two of which
got away. These two were wary old
PIG thieves who knew all about dogs
and would sooner die than be freed.
In each case they wore the dog
out and left on the trail in half days
mn. while the hunter, with his best
forts. could not get near enough for
shot.-F0yest & Stream.

ROseville VineYardists.

The following communication shows
that the vineyardists of the neighborhood
of Roseville do not intend to be behind
their brethren in other parts of the State
in looking after their own interests:
EDS. RECORD UNION Pursuant to notice
the grape-growers of Roseville and vicinity
met in this town on the 22d inst, for the
purpose Of adopting some plan of a co.
operative nature by which thev can avoid
being taken advantage of by the winery
establishments of Sacramento CITY.
1t seems plain, that as matters now stand
the vineyardists are completely at the mercy
OF grape buyers. Take what we offer fol
your grapes or help yourselves if you can,
is The way they act if they do not speak it
| do not see how the grape-growers a.
their Convention, lately held in Sacra-
mento, provided any way to remedy the
evil 10 any extent. The wineries can stand
them of-if they are united, in one way o,
another-until it is too late to put in plant
of their own, and they will then be told
We will pay so much for grapes and no
more, and what are you going to do about
it, at least for this season."
Onr people seem inclined to go on and
put up, if possible. a winery at once
There was about three hundred tons OF
grapes represented at this meeting, and q
certainty of 200 tons more if wanted
Grapegrowers feel that something must be
done or dig up their wine-grape vines. II
is possible, if no winery s started here
that many of our vineyard men may Join
in with the Sacramento people and make
the experiment with them. J.
