A EHlNAMAN'S FATE.
Declared Dead by Society, BE Was Ia
booed and Killed Himself.


In san Francisco there's a Chinese
secret society, the laws Of when aIe
as strict and unchanging as those u
the Medes and Persians. One OF tue
members of this society told some oL
its secrets-an offense punishable py
death. He was to be tried in the usual
way before a tribunal Of the society.
The night of the ordeal was nXea'
The culprit was represented Dy a9te
counsel, but the sentence was death-
as was expected. An executioner was
called from an adjoining ROOM ne
was a strapping big Chinaman' anu
wore one of those hideous WOODEN
masks that art critics think SO Deautl,
full. He carried a double-edged SWORD
fully FIVE feet long. To test the edge ne
folded a newspaper in eight parts, ana
the knife went through those elght
thicknesses of paper as II II were d
bit of butter in summer time.
The culprit was brought III upon MS
knees, and another Chinaman, also on
his knees, faced him and caught the
traitor by the cue. He drew the cut
prit's neck toward him, the smock was
pulled over the shoulders, and with
one mighty swing the double-edged
sword descended. Like a flash it Glove
the air and then stopped. A fractional
part of an inch separated the sword
from the victims neck. Very, very
gently the executioner brought the
weapon down until 1t just touched the
traitors neck. Then, as it is crime 10
kill a man in San Francisco, he stop
ped. He brought the sword to his SIDE
again, turned to the jugdes and SAID;
1.-THE culprit is dead"
The newly executed got on his feet
and said something to the Judge. The
Judge did net heed for the culprit
was dead. He tried to speak to the
Cinnamon, who were hurrying from
the hall But he spoke 70 deaf ears
To all intents and purpose he was
dead man.
He made his way into the street
and the first thing that caught his eye
was hugh poster proclaiming to all
Chinatown that he had been executed
that evening. No one would speak to
him, no one look at him-he was q
dead man-just as dead as if the exc
cuti0ner's sword had in reality de-
scended.
For whole week that man wan
dered about Chinatown. the posters
proclaiming his execution staring him
in the face at every turn. Not a crust
of bread could he beg-not Il mouth
full of water His people knew him
as dead-he was past. gone, buried.
And so one day he wandered up into
the American portion of San Fran
cisco and stole a revolver from a mes
senger boy, who was showing it to
some companions. Then he ran down
into Chinatown, sat down on the pave.
ment beneath one of his own death
notices and blew the added brains out
of his poor Chinese head.

A curious feature about this eYolu-

taken up by the great mobiles. Not only

that has come down to US shows that
the humble classes were the first to use
it for shooting game Macmillan, ar
dent sportsman that he was, tells us
himself that he could shoot further and
with greater accuracy with his cross
bow than his keeper could with the
fire-tube. To prove this he tells us the
well-known story of certain chamois
standing at distance of two hundred
fathoms. which, after being pronounced
as to far off by his henchman, who was
armed with one Of the first sporting
firearms mentioned in print, comes
tumbling down, pierced by the first at

latter.
