CHINESE IN NEW YORK.
They Have a Local Government Which
Exercises Authority.

New York Correspondence Pittsburg Dispatch.
Chinatown in New York is made up not
even of the best class of Cinnamon. The in
dustrious Cinnamon are scattered through
out the city, Brooklyn and New Jersey at
their laundries, and orly go to Chinatown
when they wish to buy peculiar Chinese
supplies or to indulge in native fun" They
rarely go there unless they have money.
For that reason the few streets running
out of Chatham Square, which have become
known as the Chinese quarter, are inhabit-
ed mostly by sharks and thieves. There
are a few big Chinese merchants there,
but there are more ways of spending money
illegitimately in Chinatown than there are
of spending it legitimately. First among
these come, of course the opium dens
Then the fan tan joints. Fan tan is kind
of Chinese poker and the police are forever
raiding dark, dirty little rooms in which
Chinese congregate in the midst of sitting
opium atmosphere to gamble away in one
night the price of many clean shirts and
spotleSs collars.
Among these vicious places a sort of free
masonry of crime exists Robbery, assault
and even murder are almost common. This
is little heard of by the outside world. first
because nobody cares very much whether q
yellow-skinned heather is robbed or as
saulted, or killed, or not, and second be-
cause the Chinese in America are so close
ly bound together in their outlandish ways
that they will not complain about each
other to the white police. In each city
where there Is any considerable Chinese
population there is also a local Chinese
government, to which the pigtailed parties
will take their complaints every time in
preference to the American police or courts
In New York there is even a Chinese
mayor, whose power over the residents of
Chinatown is very great. In this way IL
occurs that many heinous crimes are COM
mitted down in Mott and Pell streets of
which Superintendent of Police Byrnes
knows nothing. even aside from the doings
of the Highbinders' Society-probably the
most extensive and most carefully organ
lied association of murderers in the world.

EDIBLEs ON THE STAGE.
Sometimes the Genuine Article, and
Not From the Property Room.


The supposititious eoibles and drinkables
consumed on the stage usually puzzle the
people in the audience more or less. Theater
arrangements differ very much in their
liberality on that point, Star writer was
told. At Washington theater the actors
are furnished with real pies and other actual
delicacies sometimes. On the other hand.
there is theater in Boston which keeps all
its provisions in the shape of wooden dunn
mics, which the player must pretend to con-
sumo with relish.
Waisky and brandy on the stage are al
ways cold tea. The cold tea which actors
get the road is apt to be fearful, having
been boiled all day on the fire. Stage
champagne is ginger ale with some soda
water with II to make 1t lighter in color.
In summer at the theaters hot coffee Is
apt TO be iced tea Once in a while joker
will substitute real whisky for the cold tea
that ordinarily takes the place OF that ar
ticle. The victim gulps it down unexpected
ly, and, though perhaps much pleased,
makes big howl about II afterward, say
ing that his acting was ruined. That Is q
stock theatrical Joke.
The business of eating on the stage Is
very difficult, because it has to be done SO
rapidly. If the players sat long at the
table the audience would get tired. So ft
ali has TO be done with the utmost dis
patch while at the same time the appear
ance of taking a meal In proper fashion is
kent up,

MexicO's UnIucky Day.

From the Boston Herald.
Tuesday is the unlucky day in Mexico.
II you were born on Tuesday never adj
NIT 1t. You probably have been disaster
all your life, but people will firmly believe
that you are an unlucky dog and have the
evil eye into the bargain IL they find
that a Tuesday was honored with your
birth. I know a man who started on n
Tuesday with money to pay off the hands
in a factory near the city and went instead
to Acapulco, where he took the Panama
steamer The board Of directors of the
manufacturing company passed resolution
affirming their undying faith in his hon.
esty and attributed his error TO having
started for the mill on Tuesday.

A Great Remedy.

From the Indianapolis Journal.
"They tell me that Pillrou Is getting rich
from the sale of his hay fever remedy"
Does 1t really cure the hay fever?"
"Of course not. Nothing cures the hay
fever. But 1t makes people so sick that
they forget all about the original disease
