A LUCKY REPORTER.

Important Occasions.

He HapPened, TO he ON the Spot ON
Important Occasions.
It requires eternal vigilance FOR re-
porter to bag his game, leaving not d
single chance for escape. It might be
further said, however, that the element
Of luck does creep in now and then,
either to a newspaper mans advantage
or to his ruin. When Reginald Foster
was one Of the craft, he became famous
as the luckiest Of reporters. He was
alert energetic and capable Of writing
an excellent story when he landed It,
but seemed to have a mascot perennial
and eternal. Wherever he went he
stumbled upon ..beat."" He happened
to be reporting a st. Patrick's day pa
rade and went into the, Windsor hotel
to telephone his Office when the fateful
fire started In that hosiery, resulting
In the horrible deaths Of great NUM-
Der Of persons. Foster abandoned the
parade, and helped rescue the imprison-
ed patrons Of the burning hotel, and
that night wrote q graphic account OF
the fire from start to finish. He was
the most available. reporter in New
York when the great Hoboken FIRE
started, and, hiring d steamer in the
name Of his newspaper, he saved many
lives before the firemen could render
aid. When President Mckinley was,
assassinated at Buffalo the first news
came to all the papers in New York in
the shape of q very brief bulletin. A
group Of newspaper men simultaneous
" asked Of each other, where is Fos-
ter?" Somebody explained that he was
then on his vacation at Narragansett
Pier, but, even while he was speaking,
q telegram to the city editor was re-
cetved and torn open, It read thus: Il
was right beside the president when he
was shot, having come to Buffalo ex-
position to close my vacation. Will
send full descriptive story tonight" It

schools, the institution of an agri-
cultural school at the agricultural col

A HORNED PEOPLE.

Queer Race That Lives Near the CHI
nese Prefecture of Chienchang.
Adjoining the Chinese prefecture Of
Chienchang is deep gully barred by
q river which no Chinaman is permit
ted to pass until he finds bail for his
good conduct in Lolodom. ssa
The Loles are a slim, well made,
muscular race with oval reddish brown
faces, high cheek bones and pointed
chins, from which the beard has been
carefully plucked. They are far taller
than the Chinese and indeed than any
European race, but their marked pc
culiarity is the horn. Every male
adult gathers his hair in knot over
his forehead and then twists it up in q
cotton cloth SO that it resembles the
horn Of unicorn. es4 ...es.. - .. 80.
This horn is considered sacred, and
even If Lolo settles in Chinese terri
tory and grows a pigtail he still pre-
serves his horn. The Lolo mans prin-
ctpal garment is a wide sleeveless man
tie of red or black felt tied about the
neck and descending almost to the
heels. The trousers are Of Chinese
cotton with felt bandages. No shoes
are worn, but conical hat Of weven
bamboo covered with felt furnishes a
head covering as well as an umbrella
The Chinese divide the Lolos into
two classes, which they call respective
~ 'tBlack Bones and white Bones"
the first being the mobiles and the latter
their vassals and retainers. There is
also third class of captive Chinese
and their descendants, called ''Watzu, :"
practically slaves, who are tattooed ON
the forehead with the mark of their
tribe.
The Lolos never marry except in
their own tribes, captive Chinese wom-
en- being given to their bondsmen. The
marriage OF a Black Bone is time Of
great festivities and many banquets.
The betrothal is celebrated and ratified

Then they proceeded to rush their

melee continued until the police took

The ardent students could not be
cooled by an arrest The rushes were
resumed with redoubIed vigor, until the

the result would have been a slaughter

Then both sides shook hands and
started for the police station where
they made a pool of sufficient size to

system of collecting ashes and house
refuse throughout the city. During the

The additional collection was decided
upon after some complaint had been
made that one was not sufficient to
clean the city thoroughly. 1t was

accumulate rather than be put to the

rounds, then the defense called of the
fight
No advices have been received here as
to what caused the difficulty between the
two men. Since the establishment Of
the Naval Academy there has been a
tacit understanding that encounters Of
this kind shall be limited to twenty
eight rounds. While the officials OF the
Academy DO not sanction fist fights.
hundreds have been fought. and when

their disputes amicably they settle
them IN the ring according TO the Mar
quis Of Queensberry rules. seconds and

at professional encounters These fights
are always fairly conducted. and no
fouling is allowed.
Much regret Is expressed at the Navy
Department over the deplorable out

that the fight was IN no way a case

Inasmuch as II is declared that the
death OF young Branch was not the
direct result Of a blow. IL is not be-
