in an Onium Den.

tu an opium Den.
NEW YORK. March Charlie Lee. a
Chinaman. Of II Mott Street. was ar
rsgned in the Tombs Police Court yes
terday, charged with having abducted

drug by Birdie Walker. the reputed wife of
another Chinaman. Lee Soon. Morris
Schneider. the father of the girl for many
years worked as a tailor in sweat shops

hope OF getting his daughter away from
the influence of the Walker woman he
moved TO Rosenhayn. Rachael remained
in her new home but two weeks. Then
she ran away and returned TO this city.
Since that time the Gerry agents have
been trying 10 locate the girl, but with
no success until Monday night, when they
found her living with Charlie Lee, in the
Mott Street house. Lee said that the girl
was mis- wife. and, to prove the assertion
produced marriage certificate showing
that one Lille snyder had been mar
ried 10 Charlie Lee two days before in
the Mariners Temple, by the Rev. Agos-
tino Dassori. The names of Lee Soon and
Birdie Walker appeared on the certificate
as witnesses. Lille Snyder" Rachael
said. was the name she assumed when she
was married The Walker woman told
Agents King and Pizarra that she had
seen FIVE white girls marry Cinnamon
within the last two weeks.
Magistrate Mott held the prisoner in
81 600 bail for further examination. The
girl is in the custody OF the Gerry Society.

Poffenberger. a pupil was found not guilty
Yesterday. Chief Judge A. Hunter Boyd de-
livering the opinion.
Judge Boyd stated that the only difficulty
which presented itself was that during the
whipping the teacher got the boy down on
the floor. put his knee on his neck and
fogged him. Under ordinary circum-
stances he said. this might amount to an
assault, but the testimony of the pupil him
self was that he was very obstinate, re-
fused 10 go up to his class and, perhaps, a
little more force was necessary in this
case While the law gives the teacher the
right to whip disobedient pupils, IL does not
allow the punishment to become an assault
and he said teachers should exercise the
privilege with great caution He said ii
was delicate question to draw line as to
when corporal punishment is excessive. the
presumption always being that the teach
er use only force enough to maintain disei-
pline in the school.

England has persistently urged Ja-
pan to go ahead and Rrspp'e with the
Chinese situation to the full extent of
her power, requiring no pledges as to
the future. To this Russia has seem
ingly agreed, but Japan's proposal to
increase her force in China from TO- 900
to $4,000 men, still seems 10 be "held
up" by some unseen force which is
hard to trace to anything bnt Russian
jealousy and suspicion. For the pow
ers to halt Ind quibble now about any
"balance of power" or future parti-
ton OF China would be a monstrous
piece Of criminsl folly. With united
and prompt action, few decisive vic
tories over the Chinese at the outset,

summary punishment of the leaders

ALASKAN
Boundary Line is Only Tempo
rary

WASHINGTON, AUGUST 2.-None or
the protests reported to have been made
in Alaska against the definition Of the
provincial boundary line has reached
washington yet, and the impression pre-
walls in the state department that the ag-
itation- on that subject Is based upon
a lack of knowledge of the exact ma
ture of the agreement effected between
the United States and Great Britain by
which most di cult and dangerous sub
ject is removed from the current nego-
tiations between the two countries. 1t Is
pointed out by the state department Of
ficials that his provisional boundary line
the running of which is said to have
excited the American miners in the Por-
cupine region, is not in any sense binding
upon either party to the modus vivendi
. except as a purely temporary scheme,
designed to prevent hostile conflicts be-
tween the miners and the police forces,
through lack of knowledge as to that is
fully disclosed by the inclusion in the
modus vivendl Of a provision in these
terms:
"It is understood, as formerly set forth
in communications to the state depart
ment of the United States that the citi-
zens or subjects of either power sub
pect by this arrangement in the temper
ary jurisdiction of the other shall suffer
no diminution of the rights an privl
leges which they now enjoy"
Every American miner whose claim lie'
on the wrong side Of the boundary lin'
now being drawn is, according to tn
official view here, holding his claim b!
quite as sound a tenure as he enjoyed be
joyed before the provisional treaty wa
made. He has neither lost nor gaine'
in strength of title by this arrangement
so he certainly has no cause for com
plaint as he would have were the boun
dairy line now being drawn a permanen
one. The officials here, however, are full
prepared to defend the temporary bour
dary, pointing out that SO far from hav
ing ceded to Great Britain an inch Of te
ritory, Great Britain temporarily yielde
to the United States fully nineteen-twer
tieths Of the territory in dispute, and sui
fered her shipping to be kept ten mile
from boundary line at the nearest poir

Ornateness. as generally thought, is not
a part of the new lingerie for the coming
season. Exquisite daintiness is the effect
aimed for, and this is best obtained by fiat
effect in shoulder capes, yokes and bosom
trimmings. Extreme fuffiness is a factor
only in petticoats, and in them from the
knee down as many yards of fluffy mate
rails is permissible as ones taste may
dictate,
With Easter openings, which are the
most important date for dry goods mer-
chants, the princess chemise skirt and
the chemise gown were shown in count
less designs. While these garments are
not entirely new, heretofore they have
only been obtainable in extreme novelties,
whereas the latest productions are de-
signed for the average trade.
The chemise gown is made with the full
length sleeve, as we'll as the half-length,
flowing sleeve. The neck is cut square or
round, and, of course, the garment is
made full about the shoulders, so that it
may be drawn to the form with ribbons
to fit snugly, also permitting it to be
drawn on over the head. These are not
only offered in plain lawns and nainsooks
but chemise gowns are shown in colored
cotton materials, and it is hoped that they
will sell for two purposes, not only as
night robes, but as negIgees
