a Chinese Woman Calls In IIer Friends
tn Witness IIer htlicu. -
Mr. Mcdhnrst, for mnnXyears British
consul ut Shanghai. tells OF a singular
cord of invitation" which, says tho
Million, he once received in China. It
was from lady, iatimating her intcn-,
ton to commit suicide ut aispcciflcd
date. She was. very young and attrac--
tive, and belonged to i wealthy family;
But tho Chinese gentleman to whom,
she had been affianccd from childhood,
having died! just before the date fixed
upon for their nuptials. she gave out
that she dccE1cd it her duty to rcndcr
her wilowhood irrcvocablo. by dying
with her bctrothed. So she sent cards
around to the local gentry giving no
ticc of her purpose. &c
No attempt was made By her rcla-
tivcs or the local authorities to frus-
tratc her design, though MIR. Mcdhurst
appealed to the the gen
cral opinion being that she was about
to perform Ecritcriou3 act. Evcntu-
nlly, on tho day nomcd, the womaa did
deliberately sacrifice her life in the
presence of thousands OF spectators.
n stage was erected in tho open fields,
With a tented frame over it, frorrwllich
was suspended Il slip of scarlet crepe.
One cndof this slip.shc faatcncd round
her neck, and then. embracing q little
boy presented by one of the bystandcrs,
she mounted n chair and rcselutcly
jumped of, her little claGpcd hands
saluting the assemblagc as her body
twirlcd round with the tightening
cord"
The woman was not bounded on by
frantic mob, as was the practice at
Suttccs in India, but irlrnolation ap-
pcared to bean entirely voluntary act.
Sacrifices. of. this kind, according 70
Elr. Nlcdhurst, are not uncommon in
certain districts Of China, and, strange
to say, they arc rewarded with monu-
ments' sometimes erected by order OF
the emperor.

Mowry led off by superb dive, throw
ing himself out as though to enter the
water on all tours. Hallway down from
the dizzy perch he began TO turn. and, en-
tering the water at an angie of about 60
degrees, drew forth r0ars of applause from
the multitude. His example was closely
followed by Charlie King and Fred Green,
each of whom was admired for graceful
exhibition. It's wonder somebody didn't
tumble into the water-the bridges were
thrnaged almost to bursting.
Fatty Kahn was the funny man of
the party. Nothing on earth can prevent
this person from electrifylng all beholders
with humorous antics when once he dons
the swimmers garb. Fatty" climbed
laboriousiy on to his perch, and once
arrived there was seized with something
apparently akin to fear. He chung to the
rafters for support. and his knees knocked
together. thereby exhibiting outward and
visible signs OF much Inward emotion.
Then Kahn took another look at the water
and the crowd r0ared as he dropped on his
knees.
"He's praying" roared the crowd.

AFTER THE SPOOK
Unexpected Ending of a
Weird Quest.
A Haunted House Near SausalitO
Exploited by Three Daring
Youths Without Avail.

Far over the hills from Sausalito, in the
direction of Point Bonita, is a remnant of
a rancher's shanty, and rumor has it the
house is haunted.
With good reason does this weird ban
rest upon the decayiDg pile of lumber-the
reason, indeed. that compels unhappy
spirits to roam about the earth as spo0ks
without hope IL eternal rest. Besides. the
spot is lonely in the extreme, on a wild
slope under Iamalpais-a place to be
Stunned at nighttime. Anyhow. as mat
ter of fact. people who dwell in the vicin-
ity do shun it after dark. Not child De-
tween Sausalito aud Point Bonita can be
found who will pass there alone. even in
broad daylight. Many, too, claim to have
heard strange mOanings of tone I'M
earthly coming from the old house. An
other tale is told OF COW. having wan
Gered too close to the premises retreating
in wild haste after one glance through a
sashless window. And ever since 1t is a
well-known fact that no member of the
domestic bovine species can be tempted to
pluck the luscious grasses Astounding by
the dreaded ruins.
Some years ago, so the story goes, there
lived Portuguese ranchman in the house.
He was disposed to be passionate and ugly
with his Chinese assistant, and one day a
tyranicaI 0rQeT was resented OY Gno Mon
golian, who had much the same temporal
ment as his master.
Words led to blows and the Chinese
stabbed the Portuguese to death.
Then the crude ranchhouse was de-
serted, although the shade of its former
owner fingered around the scene of his
taking Oft.
Only recently was any attempt made
to solve the mystery and so remove a load
from the Sausallto mind already Durdened
with poolroOmS.
Theree brave youths. goa6ed on by the
taunts of trio of Sausalito's fairest girls,
resolved TO spend night in the dreaded
shanty. They chose beautiful evening.

All went we'll for probably an hour and
half. not sound being heard. Even
the crickets seemed to have deserted the
neighborhood The watchers on the inside
watched and waited. Phey fell asleep,
whereupon the outside sentinel procured
TWO old oil cans, with which he made a
terrific noise. Instantly the sleepers
started in abject terror and rushed upon
the object of their Quest-as they imagined.
And instantly they had him in a water
trough. In the scramble a second watcher
was dragged into the water.
Recognition soon followed, but expla-
nations were left for a future occasion.
But the spook was frightened away that
night.
