Somebody Lost "A Hand.

A false left hand which Roundsman
Charlie Wendell found at the exit of
Manhattan field after the football game
on Thanksgiving day awaits a claim
ant at the Washington Heights police
station.
1t is incased in dark tan kid glove
and looks at first glance like keenly
severed real hand.
The theory is advanced by several
members of the police force that the
dummy was the property of some in
genious member of the light fingered
gentry, whose perfect hand was under
his clothing during the football gam
bols, but plying its chosen calling all
the more effectively. 1t is the general
impression that the hand was wrenched
from its fastenings on the wrist of the
owner in the crowd as he passed out Of

How Texas Postmaster Raised the Wind
to Have a Good Time.
Schemes for robbing the government
are plentiful, but one of the most unique
perhaps that has been put into opera
ton for some time has just come to
light down in Texas.
Uncle Sam did not pay one Of his
fourth class postmasters III a little viii
lage in the Lone Star State sufficient
money to pay his bills and have a sur
plus with which to go out with the boys
at night. A friend of the genial post
master was III the same financial pre-
dicament, so they decided to make the
government furnish enough coin with
which life could be made worth living.
They couldn't tap the tills of the Office,
because the receipts were too low, nei-
ther could they steal stamps, because
they were allowed too few. 1t was final
ly decided that the money order system
was the best thing to tackle in order to
get funds, and accordingly the postmas-
ter issued 81 orders for 500 each to his
friend, payable at neighbOring Office.

few weeks both lived high.
Now the question arose how to cover
their tracks. The wits of the two GRIM
inals were put to work, and it was set
tied that they should buy the star route
in that section, subsidize the mail mes
senger and have hold up" after
which the postmaster would be able to
say that the money in payment of the
orders was taken from the mailbag.
The programme was carried out. The
messenger was held up and came to
town telling of his loss, and the post
master swore that he had placed the
money for the payment of the orders in
the mailbag.
The postofice department became sus-
picious and sent special agent down
there, which resulted in the capture of
the postmaster and his accomplice. The
messenger was also locked up.-Wash-

A RED-HAIRED CHINAMAN.
Being Off-colored He is AbhOrred by

Being Off-co1ored He is AbhOrred by
His Brethren.
Chinatown boasts of a great rarity in
full blooded Chinese who is probably
the only red-headed one on the face of
the earth. And what is more, the
Chinese has 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 ma
jority of his countrymen.
"Sheep-Eye" is one of the nick
names applied to him, because, from
Chinese standpoint, his eyes resemble
those of a sheep more than 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 dispose of cheap trim
kets, by which means he acquires liv

The reason of the Chinese being held
In such disfavor was explained by Wong
Woh, fortune teller, who daily occu-
pies portion of the sidewalk on Wash

very uduy Years ago, uS sdlu,
"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 of a fair complexion,
from some cause not pleasing in the
eyes of the numerous gods. Chew Fut
was known 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 Diety 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 wreaked on the
people. Aterrible earthquake occurred
and the waters of the sea OverfiOWed
the land, engulfed thousands Of inhab-
itants, who were carried out to sea by
the receding waters and drowned.
''The red-haired Chinese was lost at
the same time and, it is believed, was
transported direct to the Internal re-
gions where he must always suffer fear
