HONEST CHINAMAN.
Initiated Negro, Even to Stealing Pro-
visions Every Day.
From the Cincinnati Enquirer

From the Cincinnati Enquirer.
Whatever may be said about the Chi
nese one thing in their favor is their hon
esty." said a man who has Travelled. 81
have been told that one reason for this is
because theft is capital ofrense In China.
and that the average Chinaman is honest
because he has been taught from youth IN
that II he steals he will lose his head. I
don't know whether this is true or not.
However II you Will talk to people who re-
side on the Pacific slope and who are loud
est In their cries in favor of the exclu-
sion OF Chinese labor they will tell you that
as class the Chinese are honest They
work for mere pittance and can live on
almost nothing, but they are not thieves.
Some years ago when l was in CaIifor-
MIA l was told a story illustrative of Chi
nese honesty. A citizen of Los Angeles had
negro cook in his family. The negro had
given notice OF his intention to give up his
place and Chinaman had been employed
to succeed him. The lady of the house in
structed the Chinaman to go to the kitchen
and work with the negro for a couple of
days in order to learn from him the meth
DDS followed in cooking in that particular
household. Now, john said the lady to
the Chinaman. want you to do just what
the negro does and thus learn how we want
our work performed.
Accepting this order, the Chinaman pro-
seeded to his duties. A couple of days later
the negro gave up his place and the China
man was left alone in the Kitchen The
lady Of the house did not go to the kitchen
until three days after the negro had left
To her surprise she found on one of the
tables small pile of -four. pile of pota-
toes, number of slices of raw ham, and.
in fact, samples of everything In the food
line which had been eaten there for the
past several days. What in the world does
this mean, JohnT she called out to the
celestial. 'Wellee, you tellee me to do what

CIVIC CLUB CAMPAIGN.
Protests to Excise Board Against In
crease in Saloons,

At the monthly meeting of the Civic Club
Of the District of Columbia, Saturday
evening, action was taken. relative to plac-
ing regularly before the excise board the
condition which confronts the colored citi-
zens Of the city in the indiscriminate
granting of liquor licenses. special
committee of which DR.. w. 8. Lotion is
chairman, and Rev. w. H. Brooks, Rev. w.
" Tunnel, Maj. Charles R. Douglass and
DR.. ]. r. Francis are members, have this
matter in charge.
Four fundamental propositions of the Pc
tition to be embodied In the statement to
the excise board were brought before the
meeting, as follows: That the license for
the sale of liquor. both wholesale and re-
tail, be denied on non-business streets;
that standardizng Of the liquors be regu-
lated by the government: that the places
licensed for saloon purposes be policed to
prevent lettering. and that the officers of
the law sworn to see that the law is exc
cuted In securing the requisite number or
signers be cautioned as to their duty and
the law strictly adhered to-"
DR.. Lotion. speaking for the committee,
pointed out the all too common practice In
vogue of selling whisky over the counter OF
some Of the saloons at the price OF from
10 cents to 25 cents a pint, In bottles, ana
crowd of men chipping in paying Tor the
same and being furnished glasses by the
barkeeper, and being allowed to stand and
drink it. In some cases. IL was stated, Two
glasses of such whisky would cause
drunkenness. The quality OF the STUN
being put to test would show hardly any
thing but alcohol, pepper and some color
ing matter to give 1t the semblance of the
genuine whisky. DR.. w. II. Brooks cited a
case where to his knowledge grocer. hav-
ing wholesale license. had barricaded OFF
place in the corner of his store and pro-
ceeded to have a miniature bar, presuming
that there was nothing to fear in colored
settlement. In another instance, 1t was
stated, that signers of a petition for
saloon license were found to be men long
since dead, whose names were entered on
the list as bona fide and with the knowl-
edge and connivance of the police officer
having the matter in charge.
The committee was instructed to complete
its work and be ready to appear before the
excise board at an early day during this
week.
Action on the board of education report
in the matter of the NJ Street High School
was deferred to a special meeting to b
held this evening.

Whippoorwill Nest on the Roof.

From the York Gazette.
The motherly persistency OF whppoor-
will to hatch out her brood is illustrated
on the roof over the offices and wareroom
of the Geesey building, on South George ST.
Some weeks ago female whippoorwill ap-
peared on the roof and deposited two large
speckled eggs. Unlike other birds, II did
not seek a place of seclusion, nor did il
gather material for a nest, but simply laid

1t away-had stolen 1t. The Chinaman, in
literally obeying the orders given him to
do what the negro did, had also taken toll
but unlike the negro, had neglected to
make way with his booty, but left 1t on
the table and before each meal had added
to the accumulation, thus proving that
while the yellow man was good imitator
he was a sorry thief.
