him,

there had been any occasion for griev-
ance Pedro could have stated the case

WAH LEE WAKES THE ECHOES.
Chinaman Feels Loneliness OF
Pike-Gives Away Horns.

Wah Lee. a merry Celestial, erstwhile
of the Pike. was responsible yesterday
morning for brief renaissance of the old
time frivolities of that street of departed
memories. Depressed by the utter silence
of the boulevard of gayeties Wah Lee yes
terday morning proved the means of walk
ing its echoes for spell.
The Chinaman had a box of red. white
and blue horns, of the raucors sort, which
had been left on his hands unsold by the
untimely death OF the Pike. These he
opened yesterday morning. and, concluding
that he could not sell them. he determined
to distribute them to that much of the
public which might be found trayersing
the lonely Pike.
Accordingly he towed the box out upon
the street in front of the Chinese village,
and to all who passed by he prosfered one
of the red, white and blue Instruments of
torture
'Takee blowee." said wah with wide
grin Of generosity on his guileless counte-
nance. "Ffne Mclean HON, makee much
noise.
At first Wah and his horns were passed
by with contempt by the wayfarers who
thought he was trying to sell them: Very
yincing passersby that he was acting sole
ly as a philanthropist and that the horns
were ION him." Then he found no trouble
in disposing of them.
To everyone who accepted a horn Wah
encouraged him to "tly blowee" and when
the horn was winded he gave wide grin
OF satisfaction. Soon everyone was blow
ing horn. including policemen and Jeffcr-
son Guards, and when the din was at its
height Wah Lee had disposed of his last
had witnessed one more noisy time On the

CHILDISH PRANK
MAY CAUSE DEATH
Stella Holden, Inmate of German
Protestant Orphans Home,
Burned About Body.

Stella Holden. 10 years old. an inmate of
the German Protestant Orphans Home of
Des Peres, Mo-. is in critical condition
at that institution from burns sustained
Tuesday as the result Of a childish prank
perpetrated by Theresa Hertel. one of her
associates.
The two children were in a room on the
third floor about s o'clock in the even
ing, when Stella started to light lamp.
Taking a piece of burning paper, she
held 1t in her hand. Theresa threw it on
her to frighten her. Her dress ignited,
and it was but moment more until the
flames reached the open bowl Of the lamp.
causing an explosion.
Both girls were knocked senseless. Stel-
la was enveloped in flames. The ex-
plosion brought in children from an ad-
joining room Some ran for the superin-
terdent of the home. but Mary Smith,
who is IA years old, with rare presence
of mind, hastily doffed her skirt and
threw it around Stella, extinguishing the
flames.
The little girl was badly burned and
her flesh began to char Immediately. A
messenger was sent to Kirkwood. where
Doctor C. A. Dunnavant was summoned.
Doctor Dunnavant worked with her for
several hours doing all in his power to
alleviate her sufferings, but to practically
little avail. Last night she had become
unconscious, and 1t was believed that her
death was but question OF few hours.
The little girl has been an inmate of the
home for about three years. and was a
general favorite with her teachers and
her playmates.
Little Theresa Hertel. tho girl who
threw the burning paper, was almost
crazed with grief over her action and
refused to be consoled.
The fire that started in the room from
the explosion was cxtinguished before any
serious damage resulted.
