about the voyage and the profits, and
pretended ignorance of the real state OF
affairs. When the fight had ended, the
anchor was lifted and the clipper sailed
away out of the harbor. Chez Wdng-Su
played the hyIpcrite at first. Then ne
clustered and threatened. and at me
end he broke down and became disgust
ingly abject. the agent on board with
him was in the plot. He refused to give
| it away at first, but when he knew that
death was the alternative he talked fast
enough. The game was to seize the
clipper and cargo and murder US all,
and if we had not been on our guard
it would have been carried out TO the
letter.
We made a run for another port.
Chez Wing-Su made big offer for his
life, and as a matter of law we had no
right to punish him. / must tell you,
however, that PAW or no law, he was
hung by the neck to the yard arm, While
the agent was landed on an uninhabited
island 1t was high-handed thing TO
do, you will say, and yet the governor
of Shanghai, who could have been
bribed any time for SO and who hadn't
an honest hair in his head, came out
in proclamation and publicly thanked
Providence for removing bad man
from earth A few months later he
somehow got knowledge as to who
owned the clipper, and he seemed in
clined to raise a fuss, but with my own
hands | carried him $3.50. and he
laughed and grinned and rubbed his
hands together and let the affair drop
there and then.

Kind and she was going to do the PICK

possibilities, she selected the Treas
urer of the Shoe Factory and decided
tnat she could Love Him without
Straining herself. He was about her
age and was almost as good-lool1ing
as a Gibson Man, and had AL Pros
poets. 1t would be no Easy Job to
Land him, however, because the Com
petition was very keen and he was
Wary, trying TO be Kind Friend to
every Gip he knew, but playing no
Favorites He kept the parents all
guessing. The Treasurer of the Shoe
Factory was what any Society Paper
would call Great Catch.
Clara got Busy with herself and
Matched a Scheme. When all the
Smart Set got ready to pike away for
the Heated Term, Clara surprised her
Friends by guessing that she would
remain at Home. 1t was a Merry
Thing to do, because all the Social

Clara told her Mother to go, as
usual, but she would stay at Home
and be a Companion to poor lonesome
Papa. So all the Women went away
to the Resorts with their Cameras and
Talcum Powder and Witch Hazel and
Clara was left alone in Town with the
Men.
1t is Traditional Fact that there
