hand way. he recently walked from Jack

fair at Chicago. He and eight other ambi-
tious pedestrians have decided that If they

the 1000 miles that intervenes between

idea is to allow themselves thirty days in
which to make the journey. They are not
modest In their calculations. and propose to
go by way of New Orleans for the purpose

them with necessary food on lodging on the

Chicago.
The Atlanta Cinnamon seem to keep get
ting into trouble One was arrested
"Wednesday for violating the postal laws,
and has the honor of being the drst China
man ever arrested for a like offense. 1t
seems that Ching All Bing, some time ago.
borrowed a watch from the Widow Leon,
whose husband was wealthy Chiuaman
who died at Atlanta some timo ago. Bing
took trip to New York, and the watch
went with him. While there, his funds got
low, and be was induced TO carry the watch
to shop OF the three balls, and there he
left It and returned to Atlanta. When he
got back Mrs. Leon wanted her watch, and
had the law put on him TO recover it. BinR
made an effort TO get the watch out Of
soak" and succeeded in returning
1t to its owner. That part was
all right, but here's where
the trouble comes in: When he returned
the watch, he wrote a letter accompanying
ft-not OF thanks. but Of the vilest and most
obscene character. He lit in to Mrs. Leon
In most uncomplimentary manner and said
about everything that could be said against
lAdy's character and morals. The letter
was written In broken English somewhat
better than the average Cbinaman speaks.
Bing was a good Sunday school scholar, and
had learned to speak and write English while
Obtaining biblical knowledge His letter
failed, however, to reflect much credit on
his teacher. When he was arrested at his
Laundry on Decatur street, he could not
speak a word OF English, and jabbered away
furiously, but night in jail had good effect,
and be Ends himself able to speak IL now.
He is now out on a S500-bond, and will be
carried before Commissioner Haight on
Monday afternoon.
