A RED-HAIRED CHINAMAN.
Being Off Colored He is Abhorred by
His Brethren.

Chinatown boasts of great rarity in
a full-blooded Chinese, who is probably
the only red-headed one or the face OF
the earth. And what is more, the
Chinese has a light complexion and
blue eyes, and he is cross-eyed.
Mish Go, as is the freaks name, was
born in China, Of Chinese parents,
about thirty years ago, and came to San
Francisco about a year ago. He is
Stunned and disliked by the great
majority ofhis Countrymen.
"Sheep-eyed' is one of the nick
names applied to him, because, from a
Chinese standpoint, his eyes resemble
those of sheep more than those Of a
human being. Mish Go lives in one
of the dens of Spoford alley, and is
never seen in close association with
other denizens Of Chinatown, excepting
when he goes to certain stores to dis
pose of cheap trinkets, by which means
he acquires living
The reason of the Chinese being
held in such disfavor was explained by
Wong Woh, fortune teller, who daily
occupies portion Of the sidewalk on
Washington street, above Dupont
Every many years ago." he said,
''there was another red-headed China,
man in China. He lived there SO long
ago that no one now living had ever
seen him. Chew Fut was his name
and he was tall and fair of complexion
From some cause not pleasing in the
eyes of one of the numerous gods Chew
Fut was known of all over North China
where he lived and grew to manhood
Zone day it was disclosed to few
of the faithful that this particular
Chinese with the red hair must die
But it was not explained by the deity
why 1t is not known to this day why
the order was disobeyed, for no steps
were taken to end the life Of Chew Fut
and so a fearful vengeance was wreakec
on the people. A terrible earthquake
occurred, and the waters of the sea
overfowed the land, engulfng thous
ands of inhabitants, who were carried
out to sea by the receding waters ano
drowned.
"The red haired Chinese was lost al
the same time, and, it is believed, was
transported direct to the internal re
gions, where he must always suffer
fearful torture. "-ExamiHey.

KALuA ONCE MORE.
Rev Serene E. Bishop Writes About His
Character.

EDITOR STAR desire to enter in
behalf of my esteemed friend and
former pupil, Mr., Kalua, a demur to
the apparent implication in letter to
the STAR, that he is eccentric or natu-
rally unreliable. 1t is true that his
course has been singular one; have
longed watched it with deep and anxi-
Gus interest The key to his apparent
ly erratlC course is a simple one. He
exhibits two very different characters
during his periods of imtemperance and
during those of abstinence from the
drinkhabit, which is with him as fatal
to character as it is with most of his
race. 1t is my confident hope that his
noble Christian manhood has now as.
serted itself for good and finally When
free from his evil bonds, Mr. Kalua
has pursued a wise and consistent
course as an earnest Hawaiian patriot,
and a true leader of his race. When
ever on the other hand, he has relapSed
under the sway of his enemy, his poit-
ical course has faithfully followed his
moral decline.
One could always tell with certainty
whether kalua was drinking or not, by
the fact whether he ran with the Palace
crowd, or with the Reform party. |
want no better guaranty that he is
now living a manly and sober life, than
the fact that he is found nobly battling
against the corrupt monarchy and for
annexation
No man feels more keenly than does
my friend himself, how ruinously Sc.
ducing has been the organized cor.
ruption of the Royal Court upon all
who came into intimate relations with
1t. One of my deepest grievances
against Liliuokalani was the manner ir
which several years ago the Princes,
employed her very great persona
destinations to seduce kalua from hi;
independent stand in the Legislature
and to lead him to confer with the
King, an act which was followed by q
considerable period of incorporate
living as well as of political tergivers
alton, probably the darkest part Of Ka
lua's record. Every wise friend of the
Hawaiian people will thank God wher
that destroying Royal influence shall
come to an end. In opposing the
monarchy, Mr. Kalua is doing noble
battle for the lives of himself and o.
his people, who have been miseraby
wasting away under the poisonous
forces Of intemperance, impurity, and
superstition, whose chief center Of prop
agatlon has been the Palace.

San Diego to Mexico.

EDITOR STAR An article in the
advertiser entitled "From San Diego
to Mexico" relates many good things
about San Diego County, but the au-
thor's poetic license leads him into eX-
travagances, such as "avenue of the
palms" orange garden Of the gods, "
the eden Of all the earthly Fdens, etc,
The native of the sage brush will hard,
ly tumble to the meaning of Mr., Miller's
fine lines. Mr.. Miller says only half
enough about the Kimball Brothers,
the promoters of nearly every import
ant enterprise in San Diego County.
They not only planted the orchard
which Mr.. Miller describes so well, but
they built a mighty reservoir for irrigat-
ing their and everybody else's land;
they improved their land lots with
houses and well graded streets; con-
structed a railroad; built carriage fact
DRY and olive oil works; supported with
a great liberalty the San Diego Board
of Trade; organized a bank, and, in
fact, made their work the paradigm of
Yankee pluck and energy among the
early slow.coachers of Southern Cali

GO Out of the Business.

AS the farmers clip the wool from the
sheep wintered on $500 per ton hay, and
5O-cent corn, the prospect of getting only
20 cents pound for the wool looms up
and takes all the ring out of the shears,
and they go through the wool with thud
that has chilling effect upon the farm
er's prospects. 1t also sounds the death
knell to the flocks that have grazed upon
the hills for many years, and they will
soon be converted into cash. Alto cents

Death Of CYRUS Kirk.

Cyrus H. Kirk died suddenly at his
his home, near Morristown, at about 3
o'clock Sunday evening. Deceased had
been sufferer for number of years
from rheumatism, but on the day of his
death he was not thought to be unusully
sick. He was born in 1916, in Union
township. For number of years he as
sisted his father in the mercantile bust
ness at Morristown. In 1876 he came to
st. Clairsville and engaged in the dry
goods business as member of the firm
of Shepherd & Kirk. About six years
ago he returned to MOrristown and en-
gagged in farming. In 1859 he was mar
ried to Catharine Shepherd, who, with
two daughters and son, survive him.
The remains were buried Monday at
Morristown.

DARING ROBBERS
Make Persistent Attack in the Night
Season On an Aged Couple,
But are Repulsed.

About one o'clock Wednesday night
Enoch Crawford and wife, who live alone
four miles southwest of town, were
awakened by persons trying to open the
door of stairway leading from the
ground floor to the second floor. Mr..
Crawford, after convincing himself that
the noises were made by persons who had
no business there, fired several shots from
his revolver down the stairway, with the
effect of putting an immediate stop to
the efforts of the burglars at the door.
One of the robbers then mounted shed
roof adjoining the house, and attempted
to open a window. Unfortunately Mr..
Crawford could not, from his place at
the head of the stairway, command the
window with his revolver, and he feared
to leave his position unguarded. Mrs.
Crawford, however, proved herself equal
to the occasion. Stationing herself near
the window with a cleaver, she told the
fellow outside that she would cut off his
hand if he dared put it inside to undo
the fastenings. Thus this aged couple
held the fort of their home until day
break, the burglars making occasional
attempts to frighten them from their
posts by firing pistol shots, and by brava-
do talk. About o'clock they abandoned
their efforts and made off.
The mems faces were blacked, and Mr..
and Mrs. Crawford have no idea as to
who they were. BY tracks in nearby
cornfield it was found that there were
three of them-a large man, smaller
man and boy. Fourteen years ago an
attempt WAS made to burglarize this
home, and Mr., Crawford the next day
came to st. Clairsville and purchased two
revolvers. During all this time the fire
arms had lain unused, and Wednesday
night it was found that one was out of
order and would not go off, but the other
did good work.

DIVORCE NOT GRANTED
On Ground That No Marriage Ever Too
Place.


Place.
The Crozier divorce suit to dissolve
marriage claimed to have been made
under the common law, was tried before
Judge briggs on Saturday and Monday.
The circumstances of the alleged mar
riage as set forth in the petition were
published in The CHRONICLE some time
since, and in brief were that Levisa
Crozier and VIM. X. Crozier started from
Bellaire to West Alexander, in 1865, to be
married; that they missed the train at
Bridgeport and, starting to return to
Bellaire, sat down by the side of the road
and married themselves, and that they
lived as man and wife. To them five
children were born. In the trial the de-
fendant denied in toto the allegations of
the petition, except that the children
were his. The testimony of the defense
showed that the defendant never recog-
nized the plaintiff as his wife, and the
court held that there had not been such
cohabitation as to constitute a marriage
under the common law and the petition
was dismissed at costs of the plaintiff.
The question at issue was whether mar
riage had at all taken place. The children
generally went under the name of Crozier.

The strawberry business in this locality
is assuming no mean proportions. On
Friday Peter Gable and sons, south of
town, picked and marketed 81 bushels of
berries, and score of lesser quantities
were picked at different farms near by
Proportionate quantities have been sent
away each day this season. Mr.. Gable
has about five acres under cultivation
Many farmers this year have put in sew
eral acres each, and others have increased
their acreage. A ready market is found
for the berry, and the industry promises
to grow.
