cH1NAMAN SHOWS GRATITUDE.
Sincere Mourner at Funeral Of Man
Who Befriended Him.

A dispatch from Cambridge, Md. says
Tong Jack came to Cambridge ten years
ago to start laundry, being the first of his
race to make his home in the town. He
opened his little place next to the home
Of James A. McAllister, and was much per-
secuted by the boys of the town. Mr.. Nc
Allister did not particularly relish having
the laundry next door. but determined that
the Chinaman should not be imposed upon
ard so curbed the boys mischief and made
life more comfortable for the laundryman.
Tong Jack showed the liveliest apprecia-
ton.
Mr.. McAllister became i'll two weeks ago
and Tong Jack constantly sent flowers and
delicacies to him. When he died the China
mans grief was intense. Just before the
funeral yesterday Tong Jack went to the
house and offered prayers, such as the
Chinese offer at the bier of their loved ones,
Then he hired thirty carriages, so that all
who desired might go. But instead of rid
ing himself, he walked behind the hearse
all the way from the church. where the
services were held, to the grave. his hand
on the hearse and tears streaming down his
face. He was clad in all white.
When the grave had been filled Tong Jack
covered it with great mass of flowers.
Then he walked back to his laundry.

BIG GOLF TOURNEY.
DR.. Lee Harlan Only Westinghouse
Left, but He is Playing Well

The results Of yesterdays matches in the
golf tournament at Glen View, near Chi
cago show almost clean sweep for the
west OF the sixteen players yet remaining
four are from clubs east of the AlleghenieS.
Ii Travis were not a tower of strength In
himself the outlook would be very unfavor-
able for the eastern contingent, particu-
larry, as three of these are in the first half
and must fight it out among themselves be-
fore meeting the winner of the second half.
Outside of Travis DR.. L. L. Harlan of
this city is perhaps the most promising of
the eastern players left in the tournament.
as he Is older and more experienced than
Reinhart and Pyne, and quite as good
player as either.
The scoring yesterday was necessarily on
the high side on account of the terrific wind
that blew across the course from the south
west. as 1t was accountable for many
missed putt and was used as an excuse for
several defeats.
The matches today promise to be very
very high. and there will be great disap
pointment in Chicago if at least one west
erner is not in the finals.

round, played too late for last evenings

How the Runs Were Made.

Neither side scored in the first two in

For the Detroits, three singles and Dele
hanty's error were responsible for the runs.
For the Senator's, base on balls flelder's
choice Orth'S single and Jack Doyle's double
sent the pair of runs over the plate. After
Doyle had made his nice hit he got mixed
up with McAiIster at first in some way
and was thrown to the ground. Doyle
claimed interference, but the umpire failed
to see the foul and Jack had to be content
with a double instead of a triple.
Detroit then rested up until the seventh
inning while the Senators forged ahead by
one run in the fourth. Coughlin started off
with a single, was sacrificed to second by
Lee went to third on Carey's single and
home on Elys single into right-another
exhibition of pinch hitting by the veteran
shortstop. Washington made another run
