WONG All HING HANGED.
He Regarded Death as a
Huge Joke.
MAS HUMOROUS TO THE LAST
A New Suit of Clothes and q Full
81 omach Made Him Die
Happy.

Associated Press Dis. 'atones TO the HEhALi
SAN Francisco, FeA 'ruary l4.wWonl
All Hing, who stabbe> | ana kiileo n'l
uncle, Wong Ming See, in April last ant
was sentenced to be hanged ,oday' spent
the greater part of the night N playing
poker and singing comic Chinese songs
1t was late when he finally fell ssheep
At 7 o'clock this morning he was awaA
ened by the attendants. He requested
to be allowed to sleep longer, but IN
moment his breakfast was brought TO
him, and it had the effect OF arous.
ing him at once. He devoured
all the food placed before him
with apparently great relish, and when
the meal was concluded, he commenced
to sing, and gave limitations of actors
and singers of the Chinese tneaters.
When the subject of his coming ordeal
was mentioned he laughed, and said he
was not afraid to die. He then asked
for pencil and some paper, and drew
sketches of several persons in his cell,
and laughed heartily as he examined the
result of his efforts.
About 10 o'clock Hing was shaved and
given bath at his own request, and was
then presented new suit Of Chinese
garments, which seemed to delight him
greatly. He said the new clothes made
him look cheap high-toned," but in Q
moment he discovered that the Deputy
Sheriff had neglected to provide him
new hat. He insisted that he must have
one, with a big red bead on top,
and declared: "Must have new one,
too high-toned for old; get him or no
hang" He was accordingly given new
his cell, contemplating his improved
personal appearance and chatting and
laughing gaily, though he did not seem
to be entirely satisfied with his new hat
and said: "Heap good, all but hat; him
a highbinder hat; me no highbinder."
The usual crowd had collected outside
by this time, and squad of police was
stationed in front of the Jail.
About 1890 Hing was taken to an
other cell on the upper corridor, near the
trap. He smiled at few visitors as he
walked by, and puffed cigar as he sur
veyed the scaffold. In a moment he
asked for something to eat, and laughed
heartily when the jailor made remark
about his enormous appetite. When he
had eaten he sat down to game of po-
ker with an attendant, and when this
was concluded asked for more food, which
was given him.
At II 80 the death warrant was read
and translated, and Hing interrupted the
proceedings with another laugh. He
seemed to look upon the whole affair as
a huge joke, and apparently failed to
realize the doom which hung over him.
As the bells tolled the hour of noon he
was led to ;he scaffold. He was percep-
tibly nervous, but did what he could to
adjust himself to the requirements. The
of his face as the black cap
was pulled over it was one of interest
rather than terror. At 1902 Hing
dropped through the trap, and was dead
in few minutes.

GOLD HUTCH, ROBBERS.
Why the Absc0nding Clerks O.
Back from Canada.

Back from Canada.
CHICAGO, February 14.-Young Stoner,
the clerk who, it is alleged, aided in de-
frauding the well-known Board of Trade
speculator, B. P. Hutchinson, out of
several thousand dollars by means of
fictitious deals, returned from Canada
several days ago and resumed his desk
in Hutchinson's office. Now it
is stated that his partner, Burt
King, who was employed by
Broker Dickerson, is also to return. The
explanation made by Mr.. Dickerson is
that he and Hutchinson satisfied them
selves that the young men were only the
tools of coterie. who conspired to de-
fraud Hutchinson. Hutchinson wants to
get at those men, and, therefore, guaren-
teed the boys immunity should they re-
turn and clear the matter up. Sensa-
tional developments are expected.

gett has rendered decision of vital in
terest to all millers using the modern
roller process. While the use OF rolls is
old, numberlsss patents on special de-
vices have bsen granted, and some time
ago four of the leading manufacturers
formed company, pooled for all their
patents and commenced suit against
a number of millers and manufacturers
for infringement. Judge Blodgett has
decided in the suit brought against
the Barnard & Leason Manufacturing
Company of Moline, Illinois, that these
patents can only be sustained for such
special devices as they cover, and that
the inventors entered the field at 30 late
day that they are not entitled to have
the doctrine of equivalents enforced in
their behalf.

| beRuty-no easy task, l can assure you;
! but such u costume as the one just de-
scribed would be quite sure TO attract as
| much attention as the horses themselves. =
A famous French woman once expressed
! the wish that Paris only had one eye
aud that it was fixed upon her. How
ever, not all of us are so gree iy for pub
| lilo recognition. We are quite content
with an occasional and short-lived tri-
umph at some distinguished gathering
| queens of an afternoon or evening. We
make merry at the expense OF the pea
cook, and yet a dozen such fowls could
not contribute vanity enough TO stock
human being of either persuasion.
The last illustration in this article will
give you tolerable correct notion of q
pale gray costume trimmed in striking
and effective manner. The material is
woollen batiste, garnitursd with trans
parent black silk gauZe volants (plisse)
also applied en- epsulette AMI as collar
cite, the sleeves being in black velvet.
The bonnet, which is very small, is
fashioned from white gsuze with black
spots, black velvet strings and trimming,
and has white dandelion heads on the
top. Gloves are white, altogether an
extremely dressy aud refined costume to
belong TO an outfit for a jauut to the
mountains after the midsummer season
is over Thin transparent stuffs will not
ill the bill at an elevation of 5000 or 1000
feet above tide water. There Is very
often very eager and nipping air on the
verandas OF mountain hotels and no one
looks pretty when the blood is not cours-
ing freely through its channels. There
is u place for blue blood but it is not in
the lips.
1t seems to me that we are in a sort of
transition period as regards women's
clothes; that we are bidding adieu for
ever TO starched linen underwear.
Woman will become more catlike than
ever. Her coming and going will be ab-
solutely noseless. That old-t time rustic,
so dear to the ears of the expectant GAL !

In the trousseRu of fair Psrisienne, |
