NINE. WI IN WASHINGTON.
Her Daughter, Miss Daisy, VIII ne
introduced 70 Society During
the Winter.

Bundled in furs and silks until
they resembled nothing so much as
rolls of rich cloth, Nine. WI. her
daughter, Miss Daisy, and the two
young women Of high caste, who con-
stitute her suite, arrived at the Chi
nese legation at Washington early
the other morning. With them came
half score Of servants and almost
q car load Of baggage.
Minister WI and all the members
of the legation were at the station
to bid Mrs. WI and her young
charges welcome. As they were as
sisted from the train everybody tried
to talk at once. except the imper-
turbable minister himself. who, after
singing out his wife and affection
ately greeting her, stepped to one
side and shook hands one by one
with the young women who accom-.
panied her.
His daughter, Miss Daisy, who 10

greeted the minister, and then began
looking out for the comfort Of her
mother. The daughter will be
formally introduced to society at q
dinner and dance In the near future.
When Miss WI and the members of
her mothers suite are introduced
formally to society IL Is expected
that the affair will even exceed the
magnificent functions usually given
at the legation. This Is the first time
in the history Of the Chinese legation
that young Chinese women Of high
caste have ever been brought to this
country for the purpose Of entering
society.

a contingent fee, and receives in ad'

Kite for Life-saying Line

Capt Brossard de Gorbigny, of the
French naval reserve, has just invent
ed kite to replace the rocket APP
paratus for establishing communica-
ton between wrecked vessels and the
shore. The kite is collapsible and
can be flown in the toughest weather.
An ingenious arrangement renders it
possible to defect it As degrees from
the direction of the wind. Once over
the spot where the cord is to be
dropped an appliance, consisting of
sharp-edged ring, is sent along the
kite string and cuts the attachment,
thus causing the cord to fall.

Careful and conservative estimates
of the orange crop of Southern Cali
fornia for the season 1901-02 indicate
that it will be from IS to 20 per cent.
less than that of last year and, with
normal climatic conditions, the fruit
will be of excellent quality. There ia
the usual variance In these estimates,
however, an optimistic view being
that the crop will equal or exceed that
of last season. F. U. Storey, president
OF the Semi-Tropic Fruit exchange,
thinks this seasons crop of citrus
fruits will be trifle less than 2O,O0O
carloads, or about 80 per cent. of that
which was shipped last season.
