CHINESE USE THE BOYCOTT.
They Cut All Business Connection
With Supposed Enemies.

They Cut All Business Connection
With Supposed Enemies.
j. +. Morgan the auctioneer learn
ed through his cook yesterday morn
ing that posters had been issued
advising all Chinese residents who
did any business with Mr.. Morgan
to boycott him. At the auction sales
held yesterday only one Chinaman
was present and that was at the sale
at H. Hackfeld Il Co.'S warehouse.
The Chinaman, Sung Yuen kee, a
tinsmith who owns store on Ma
unakea street, bought a dozen sheets
of corrugated iron roofing for $3.50.
The news soon spread about that
Sung luen Kee had done business
with Mr.. Morgan and a howl was
raised.
Yesterday evening delegation of
Chinese called on Sung Yuen Kee
and made dire threats against him
for violating the order posted about
town. The tinsmith, in fear of his
life, explained his position. He said
that he thought the corrugated iron
was the property of II. Hackfeld h
Co., and not Of Mr.. Morgan. The
delegation after a parley in Oriental
jargou elected from the frightened
tinsmith an abject apology, and a
promise that he would also make a
public apology. Shortly after noon
to-day Chinese posters were pasted
up in Chinatown with an apology
from Sung Yueu Kee.
Fifty Chinese hackmen have
banded themselves together and
will boycott I. b. Murray, carriage
manufacturers. Formerly these hack
men had all their repairing done at
Murray's shop. Recently Murray
called on Ho Fon and stated that
the American League, Of which he
was president, was not inimical to
Chinese interests, and he Murray
would show him (Ho Fou) the min.
utes Of their various meetings. Ho
ton had no time to embrace the
opportunity.
1t is reported that the firm Of NJ.
5. Grinbaum n Co. will he boycottedl
by the Chinese, on account of G.
Bottles connection with the firm.
The lawyers, il is said, will not es.
cape the boycott system, which, by
the way. was inaugurat.d by sup.

Stopped Smoking to Save.

Xerxes Jones determined to quit smok-
ing, not, you know, that it had any
baneful influence upon his health, but
solely for the reason that he didn't feel
justified in spending rs cents day for
the weedy luxury Jones had good
disposition and began his new scheme
on Sunday "Seeing I've quit smoking,
I'll put an extra quarter in the collec-
ton box today" he unused, and in the
money went
On Molslay, just to please his little
wife, good Jones bought 40 cent box Of
mixtures and handed it over with the
remark: ''No, my dear, it's no extrava-
gance. just about what saved on ci-
gars today, and we both can enjoy this
after tea" Tuesday Jones bought SO
cent toy for his little bog out Of the
cash saved by abstinence from tobacco.
Wednesday he changed his dining place
down town from 20 cent to so cent
table d'hote, feeling justified in spend
ing the extra quarter saved on cigars.
Apparently forgetting this on Thurs
day, the reformer remarked to himself
"There's that new umbrella my wife's
been talking about. I'll buy that and
charge it up to two weeks savings on
smoke. " On Friday new dinner set
was purchased to please the wife of his
heart and set over against 30 weeks
savings from tobacco, and on Saturday
Xerxes Jones spent 25 cents for cigars,
having lost six days Of his luxury, and
figured up that he had "saved" on the
wrong sida Of his books just about
$3S. 80. -philadelphia Call.

Eslkimos and Tobacco.

"There are many interesting features
about the Eskimos Of Alaska" said A.
G. Bruce, who is in charge Of Lake
Charles Reindeer station, at the Gibson.
Zone of the most interesting features
of this peculiar people to me has been
their habit Of smoking. They are invet-
crate smokers without regard to sex.
Their pipes are made Of walrus tusks
and are followed out in such manner
that a great deal Of the tobacco as we'll
as the smoke is inhaled They will meet
every whaling or other vessel, and al
most any kind of trade can be made
for smoking tobacco They will deliver
up the ivory Of the walrus at very much
less than it's value and take in exchange
smoking tobacco at several times its real
worth. The greatest punishment you
can inhict upon an Eskimo is to deprive
him of his tobacco. "--Cincinnati En-

PICKETT AND TIE ARCHIVES.


The Light Turned Oh n Hidden Chapter OF
Wartime History.
Frank Riggs, the son Of the famous
banker and his fathers successor in the
financial circles at Washington, tells
me an interesting story that corrects q
false impression which many good poo
plo have carried for years. During the
second term Of President Grant q man
Of the name Of Pickett sold to the gov
eminent of the United States the rec
ords of the executive departments Of
tho southern confederacy. From these
documents was obtained much evidence
that prevented the payment Of claims
Of southern citizens who pretended 10y
atty for losses growing out of the war.
In single instance they saved several
millions by showing that mail contract
DIS throughout the south had been paid
from tho Confederate treasury for serv-
ices performed by them for the postoffice
department Of the United States before
tho outbreak of the rebellion. They
proved to be OF great value in many 9TH
er directions, and the price paid Mr.
Pickett for them, which was some
thing like $50, 600, proved to be one Of
the most profitable Investments ever
made by tho government
Pickett had been the chief clerk Of
tho Confederate state department or
held some similar Office which made
him custodian of tho archives. When
President Davis and his cabinet fled
from Richmond, Mr. Pickett carried tbs
records away and hid them in some
place that escaped the searchers of the
Union army, md the manner of their
disappearance was o mystery until they
were delivered to Secretary Fish. 1t
was always believed that Mr.. Pickett
pocketed the money, and he was uni.
versally condemned by southern people
for betraying the secrets of the lost
cause for price
''The facts have never been told, 1"
said Mr.. Riggs, 'for Mr.. Pickett exact
ed the strictest pledges of secrecy from
my father in regard to the disposition
of the money. But both of them are
dead now, and there is no reason why
the truth should not be known. MIR.
Pickett never had the benefit Of one
| penny Of the money he received from
the government for those records He
deposited the entire amount as soon as
he received it in our bank to the credit
of George ". Riggs, trustee for, and
| it was distributed in small amounts
among the widows of Confederate off,
GERS. Mr.. Pickett made out the list of
the people to whom he wished it sent.
The checks were all signed by my ia
| Their. Each one was accompanied by a
letter, which he prepared and which my
father signed, saying that the Enclosure
was forwarded as the request of a gen.
tleman who felt an interest in thei1
welfare, but for reasons Of his own de-
sired that his identity should not be
disclosed The account was carried fol
several years. and all the checks and
vouchers are now packed away in ou1
bank. ''-Chicago Record

Those Wonderful Americans In London.

The American dentist is credited with
many wonderful devices, but London
correspondent of The British Medical
Journal has discovered an especially
new and offensive invention. He says:
"Some Americans are introducing here
the practice of inserting diamonds for
vulgar display into tho front teeth. 1t
is surely enough that our sense Of de-
cency and propriety should be so often
shocked by unsightly gold crowns and
filings without being further offended
by this new atrocity. I believe it has
only just started here, and this, there
fore, is the time to denounce it and is
my excuse for troubling you. MED

Where love may stroll quiet mile -.s.s
And hear no passing feet.

Asleep upon the ground,
When soothing minstrcls family call
To dreams of bliss they've found.

Indifferent to woe,
Seeking breath of solace where
The sweet crabapples grow.

A gentle maid of simple words
His sorrow charmed away.
