How Ching Ming Did UP HIS COnfding
Oountrymen.
CHICAGO, March l5.-Ching Ming See,
treasurer of the company of Chinese
merchants in Chicago that owned and
operated the Chinese tneater and village
in the worlds fair grounds, has been
locked up, charged with embezzling
nearly $50 900. When the company was
formed, Ching was elected treasurer,
and sent to China with funds to buy the
necessary properties and hire 200 actors.
He sent along 400, whose passage was
paid by the Chinese government. He
also got goods at very low figures and
charged the company full rates. He
did not come back whom his duties
ended. There was no use for 200 Of the
400 Cinnamon he sent over, and part of
them were sent back, though most of
them remained in the country in viola
JIUn Vi VHs o-s,--. Ei-allu tha
company sent Lem Dong as a special
envoy to China to bring Ching back.
Strenuous objections were made by the
dishonest treasurer against returning to
Chicago, but official influence was
brought to bear upon him in the empire
whore the laws against such offenders
are very severe, and he was compelled
to come back and face his accusers. If
he staid in China it meant death. He
returned here two weeks ago and the
federal officers pounced on him for vio-
latlng the Chinese exclusion act. he
was taken to Jail. Late yesterday Sam
Moy, rich merchant OF this city, and
DR.. Nee Woo, lately of Omaha, who are
among the heaviest losefe, had war
rant served on Ching for embezzlement.
Hip Lung and Charlie Kee are alec

SAN FRANCIseo, March 15.-The state
supreme court has decided the important
insurance case of Mary V. Grifiths
against the New York Life Insurance
company. Judge L. g. Gritiths, well
known Fresno lawyer, some years ago
took out two policies Of $40, 900 each,
giving two notes in payment of the first
premium. Later on Grifiths told the
local agent he could not pay one OF the
notes at maturity, and one policy was
cancelled. Grifiths was accidentally
killed before the second note matursd.
The company refused to pay the amount
of the policy on the ground that the
agent had no right to take notes. Mrs.
Grifiths brought suit, secured judg-
ment, and on appeal the judgment ia

AN EXCELLENT IDEA.

A proposition, by which the val
liable improvements already made
by the Texarkana Fair Association
in the shape of buildings, grounds,
etc, may be preserved to the city,
have been submitted to us and will,
at once, be placed before the pub
| lie, of our city. The proposition in
wolves the organization of body to
be known as the ''Texarkana Jockey
Club" The imitation fee of mem
bers will be $500 and membership
limited to one hundred, with club
dues at $1,000 per year. BY this
means the purchase money lien, now
held against the property to the
amount of $4,000 or more, by Col.
A. L. Chic, can be relieved and the
grounds and buildings saved from
public sale and consequent destruc-
tion and loss to the city. There is
also a second mortgage indebted
ness against the grounds and build
ings, amounting to 10000, which can
be taken up by the club, by means
of new mortgage debt, to run for
a given number of years. This lat
ter arrangement to be by mutual
consent. BY this means not only
would the valuable property, upon
which S23, 600 has been expended, be
preserved, but the city will have Sc
cured to itself the still greater ben
eft of at least one good racing meet
each year. Then, too, the Fair AS
sociation might continue in exist
ance or reorganize, at will, and re-
vive the Texarkana Fair, just as
soon as the city shows the ability
and disposition, to support and
maintain same, The interest in the
fair, proper, would only be increased
by the addition of the Jocky Clubs
racing meet;,as heretofore, racing
has been the main and most attrac-
tive features of our fair. Thus the
matter stands, either organize the
Jocky Club, with its attendant ad-
vantages, or lose both fair and Fair
Association, together with grounds,
and buildings, money expended and
local prestige. We, therefore, say
organize the Jockey Club and the
sooner it is done, the better it will
be for our city, Now let some en-
terprising man or set of men, step
forward and set the ball in motion

Good. bye, Sweetheart.

A play was presented at the Cap
ital Theatre last evening, which
really is worthy of being called a
great drama. Miss Lillian Lewis
and the company which supports
her were the exponents of this re-
markably excellent play, and Good
bye, Sweetheart was the title of
the play. 1t is a story of the good
side of humanity. There are no
Williams and there is no Machiavel-
ian cunning in it. There is no de-
bauchery and infdelity, but there
is plenty of simplicity and goodness
and honesty and nobility Itmakes
one feel good to see such play, and
confirms one in the belief that the
skeptic and the pessimist are on the
wrong side of the fence of the 18th
century social code. The dialogue
fairly sparkles with epigram and
wit, and there is not a scintilla of a
suggestion which would denote a
double meaning. Goodbye, Sweet
heart" teens with good nature and
purity, and is an eloquent witness
that loudly testifes that strong
play can be written without dig
ging into the muck of our existence.
We do not need the ever-present
spectacle of sin and degradation to
make us know that evil comes from
evil when we can have the spectacle
of knowing that good comes from
good. Miss Lillian Lewis has a part
in this play which fits her admira-
bly,, and she plays it with an artist
ic grace of the highest order. The
company is a strong one, and its Sc
lection demonstrates the wisdom of
Mr.. L. Marston as a most keen
sighted manager.-[Arkansas Ga
