OUTCAULT HOST AT LUNCHEON
Creator of "Buster Brown" of Funny
Page Fame Entertains Repre-
Sentatves of Press

j. r. Outcault, clever creator of "Bus-
ter Brown" one of the brightest chaps
that adorns the funny pages of the
Sunday papers, entertained a group of
fellow artists and writer's of the Los
Angeles press at a Dutch luncheon at
the Angelus yesterday. Mr.. Outcault
will deliver one of his funny talks in
Simpson auditorium tonight, and took
this method of saying hello to his
fellow conspirators of the press yester-
day.
He proved as clever and bright a
parsonage as those he depicts, and one
who met him no longer had to wonder
at his wit and delightfulness on paper,
for he is the same in real life. This
made the occasion a memorable one,
and all too brief, his engagements else
where requiring his hurrying away.
1t certainly augurs we'll for his en-
tertainment tonight, for if the gen
eral public enjoys one whit of the fun
that he made yesterday around a long
table, it will have something in the
way of treat that is as rare as it is
pleasure BILE.

CURSE OF INSANITY RESTS UPON
WONG BOW, WHO SEES DRAGONS

that whenever Wong staggered forth
i'm the bright light of day the Chinese
gave him the entire side of the street.
The landlord complained to the author
tiles and Wong was arrested while
holding private converse with the
dead. He was arraigned yesterday and
told the following story through his
Interpreter.
why have they brought me to this
place, and what are they going to do
with me? Already It seems as though
a thousand devils were tearing at my
brain and have no rest. once / was
happy back I'm the far land Of flowers,
where my father held his land and was
looked upon with favor by the gods
and the empress.
MY father bade me go forth and
make something of myself. That was
long time ago. 1t seems that those
things must have happened In another
world when 1 was somebody else. All
l know now Is that my head hurts.
| fear to shut my eyes. When for
the slightest moment l close the light
of day from my sight strange things
appear to me.
Country Torn Up by War"
"Twice, as though in dream, l
have seen China torn by wars, the peo-
pie slain, and men fighting everywhere
with guns. There is none of the old
gods of my worship to be seen in these
battles and 1 fear there is trouble in
store for my nation.
1.-THE very sight of face is terrify-
ing to me- Everyone I look at seems
natural, until suddenly faces become
distorted and they grin at me, and 10,
they have become dragons and swoop
down toward me, and in self-defense
I stick out my tongue just little, and
then everyone says, Crazy, crazy
until believe 1 would rather be dead,
with the little red candles and the
prayers scattered about and the priests
singing in slow measures above me,
and then the people would pity me and
l should be happy in the heavens of
my gods.
But now ] am dizzy. Men tell me
that l will be sent to a great temple
where all men and women are like me.
Where mind is not and delusions gov
ern the actions of all. Well, let them
send me there, and for once l will show
how the Chinaman is first of his ma
ton Let the song be wild or the
orgie long, and at it's end you will find
me standing foremost fighting against
the devils and Staying the dragons
with my bare hands. 1 am the son of
Toi Sin, and fear not man nor devil"
Wongs case is regarded as hopeless
and he continually makes faces at his
fellow prisoners and shrieks his battle
cries as he fights the dragons in his
cell. He will be tried today.

PASTOR HURT IN RUNAWAY
Elder L. Swindle of Broadway Chris
tian Church Thrown from Buggy
and Dragged on Pavement

Elder l.. Swindle, assistant pastor of
the Broadway Christian church, was
severely bruised in runaway accident
Tusday afternoon and may be confined
to his home, 1889 West Eleventh street,
for some time.
Mr.. and Mrs. Swindle were driving
on West Eleventh street when they
were warned of "a runaway horse rap
idly approaching from the opposite
direction. To avoid having his own
horse stampeded, Mr.. Swindle brought
his horse to a stop and jumped to
the ground to hold his head. The reins
became tangled and pulled the horses
head to one side. The animal became
frightened and before Mr. SWindle
could clutch his bride, his feet were
tangled in the loose reins and he was
thrown to the ground and dragged sew
eral feet before the horse could be
stopped
Mrs Swindle was not injured, but
suffered considerably from nervous
shock.

CHINESE STUNNED BY HIS
C0UNTRYMEN
To Celebrate Prosperity Celestial In
dulges In Rice Wine and Poppy
Leaves and Mind Gives
Way

With his hair disheveled and his eyes
staring as though into vacancy, Wong
Bow, an unhappy boy from Chinatown,
was ushered before Judge Conrey in
department two of the superior court
yesterday and arraigned on a charge
of insanity
The story of the young celestial is
pathetic and alone and without friends
he will stand trial for insanity which,
In the eyes of the Chinese Is more
of a curse than a disease and he may
go to Highland without a single friend
to wish him well.
Wong came to America many years
ago He was only youngster then.
and he started to learn the business
of the trader. Step by step the lad
advanced, learning the clever tricks
of the Chinese merchants until at last
he found it within his power to have
a little store of his own.
In honor of the event he indulged
in just one little celebrations not the
maudlin kind of the foreigner, but a
quiet little Chinese celebration where
in he drank much rice wine and rice
whisky. He then crept to q little room
in the rear of a building of the Chi
nese quarter and below the soft light
of the candles he enjoyed one great
smoke of the fragrant leaves of the
poppy. But that was the last of Wong.
His mind, already endangered by his
work, succumbed quickly to the ef-
fects of the drug, and now he knows
not his brothers or his friends.
Sees Many Dragons
Knowing not and caring not, he
| rested on his bunk, and his friends
came to see him. Then Wong began
to see things. "Look!" he would say
to his friends, there floats the spirit
of Kishiu the dragon. He has come to
make speech with me and 1 fear him.
Gradually Wong's friends left him
His house was accursed, and none came
near while the unhappy celestial rested
on his mat and saw the hideous faces
of the spirit land glaring at him.
Then came the final stroke of i'll for
tune. Wongs landlord learned of the
| celestiaIs PLIGHT. He further learned

MCKINLEY "A. Editor.


1t Is n fact not generally known that
Major Mckinley always had fond
ness for editorial writing. During the
winter passed at Canton after the ma
jor had been elected president he wrote
several articles each week for a Cleve-
land newspaper. A few OF us, anxious
to forecast McKinley's policy after he
became president, were put WISE and
on one occasion examined the penciled
manuscript after 1t had left the hands
of its writer.
That "copy" must be in existence
somewhere about Cleveland. Some of
1t would cast strange side lights upon
Mr.. McKinley's Cuban policy. Prior to
March 4, 1897. he was decidedly averse
20 interference in behalf of the suffer
ing revolutionists. =
l have the best reasons for knowing
that bundle Of actual photographs
taken among the ''reconcentrados"
opened his eyes to the terrible fact that
General Weyler was deliberately starv-
Ing the noncombatants. And yet the
late president never would have con-
scented to so TO war Tor Cuba had not
