YOUNGEST PRISONER IN UN-
TIED STATES is AGED FIVE.

The youngest prisoner In the United
States is Yute Ho Jo, aged s, says the
San Francisco Examiner. She has
been prisoner of Uncle Sam for
more than four years. The crime for
which she is paying the penalty is
the crime of being a girl baby which
in China is a crime indeed. She was
born in an interior village in China.
and her mother was very glad to take
$40 offered by woman who went
there from San Francisco to buy
slave girls for the San Francisco
Chinatown.
The buyer knew her bargain, for
what were the risks of the child's
death to the possible three. five or ten
thousand dollars she would bring in
a dozen years or so? She was young
enough, too, to have her feet bound
and he palmed off as better class
than that from which most slave girls
come.
She was happy, this slave dealer,
when she sighted San Francisco on
her return journey, and she shuffed
easily along the pier when she left
the boat. The inspectors all knew her,
for she had been back and forth
many times 1t was because they
knew her that they questioned her
about the little bundle in her arms.
She told them the baby was her own,
for it is a lie that comes first to a
Chinaman's lips. This was her un-
doing.
In the court she added lie to lie,
but in the end the judge knew that
the baby had not been born to her.
She had no right to bring it without
papers, and she had not thought of
this. The infant could not be de-
ported, because no amount of ques-
tloning could make the woman re-
veal the home of the child
Besides the judge diG not see that
the child would be better off with
mother who would sell her for SO
than with IA woman who would pay
that for her. on the other hand, she
could not be entered, and babies un-
der year are too little to go to Jail.
At length the judge decided to turn
his little prisoner over to a mission
that makes a business of rescuing
Chinese slave women. with the agree
ment of 40 cents a day for her board.
In the four years that she has been
at the mission, Yute Ho ii has be-
come the pet of the household, and 1t
seems to be an instance of the pun
ishment fitting the crime.

Washington. Dec. 7.--An appropriation of $1l, 900. 900 was voted toward tho construc- ton of the Panama Canal The amount was compromise between the S16.500.000 carried in the bill under consideration and an estimate of son ething over $R.000. 900 recommended by Mir Williams. the Demo- cratic leader. to carry on the work until the middle of January.
 MT. Hepburn. In charge rtha bill sug- gested that sorn e'''- N0.0o0 would l-ry on the work until March.
 There # to delay the work. the only arugment for cutting down the original estimate being that oser scrutiny might be had ol the estimate. The hill was amended in accordance with sug- gestions by Mir. Mann of Illinois. directing the President to require annual reports rom canal construction officers covering all de- tail of the work: requiring such employees to give Congress any information 1t may de- sire and restricting ell expenditures to mon ey appropriated by Congress and tn that received by the operation of the property of the Panama Railway
 Otherwise the bil was not amended and contains besides the appropriation. provis- ion removing tax disability against tho proposed bonds to be issued for the construc- ton of the canal. thus placing the honds on a footing with other government bonds as available for security for national bank circulation. and to reimburse the treasury for the money appropriated in the bill
 The bond provision in the bill was point
  eral unsuccessful amendments all seeking to abandon the policy of issuing bonds for the canal work on the ground that there is sufficient available funds in the treasury to meet ali needed demands for the canal work
 Mr. Overstreet did not succeed in amend ing the bill 50 that the st0.00 900 already expended in canal construction might be re funded to the treasury from the sale of the canal bonds The bond policies of the two parties occasioned the feature of the debate and resulted in limited political discussions
 Secretary Taft, accompanied by tho auditor and purchasing agent of the Canal Commission, came to the Capitol and remained available to give any in- formation that might be asked for on the floor, but they were not called upon.
 With the bill out of the way and the committee appointed to begin work on the several thousand measures that have been introduced since the session began, the House adjourned until Mon- do

VIII Not Jugglc One Constitutions for Another One.

Washington, Dec. 7.-Secretary Bon- aparte today received the following telegram from A. E Pillsburg, former Attorney General of Massachusetts:
 May I not say to meeting called to preserve Constitution that she will not be destroyed?"
 Secretary Bonaparte's attitude re- gardIng the fate of the historic old frigate is outlined in this telegram which he sent in reply:
 Fate of Constitution in hands of Congress. Personally wish to see her arise like a Phoenix. but am too loyal to other Constitution to take unauthor- ized liberties with this one."
 The excitement regarding the Consti- tuition has been precipitated by a sug- gestion contained in Secretary Bona parte's report that in view of the fact that only q few parts of the present Constitution can be identified as com ing from the original ship of the name. should be taken out and preserved in a new armored cruiser of modern type to be called the Constitution.
 He further suggested that the re- mainder of the present ship Constitu- tion might appropriately be given q maritime ending by setting her up as q target for the North Atlantic fleet at it's annual target practice.
