Pending the trial of the divorce case
against him 1t was announced yesterday
in Judge Graham's court that Joseph
Lomelino had agreed to give his wife
$500 of the $4,000 insurance money he
received, together with a lot that is
worth in the neighborhood Of $4,000.
Mrs. Lomelino brought suit for di-
vorce against her husband, who is
druggist, long before the fire. She
alleged incompatibility of temperament
and asked that the community property
be divided. She asserted in her COM
plant that her husband failed to sup
port her and that she was forced to
pay So month for back room where
she dwelt with her children.
After the fire there was $4,000 due
Lomelino for insurance, and the dispo-
sition of this money has been the
source of much trouble. The attorneys
arranged compromise yesterday, and
Mrs. Lomelino told the Judge that she
was willing to accept what had been
offered her.
George de Leon never saw his young
est child girl of 2 years. Mrs. Eliza

she has not heard from him. Captain

able friction between Seitz and his
subordinates at the hospital
1t developed last night that the chief
grievance against Seitz. aside from his
inability to get along with his subordi-
mates, was his action in causing Clerk

fourth cook at the County Hospital,
and the person in whose favor the de-
mand was drawn never reported for

ROPE SUDDENLY SNAPS.

The flames were by this time licking
the window-sill and Shea was forced
to fight his way through them as he
began the descent. He dropped from
the window and had lowered himself
but a few feet when the rope suddenly
snapped. A pile of rubbish partially
broke the fall, but was not sufficient
to prevent serious injuries.
Firemen had by this time reached the
scene and carried both Shea and his
wife to an ambulance, in which they
were hurried to the hospital
The fire broke out shortly before 2
o'clock yesterday morning in the home
of Richard Coffey, 237 Dolores street,
which is in the same building in which
Shea's fat was located. The fire is
supposed to have originated from de-
fective fiue and spread rapidly through
the building. BY the time the Fire
Department reached the scene the en-
tire building was in flames, and all the
efforts of the men were turned TO saw
ing the lives of the occupants of the
burning structure and the adjoining
buildings.
Shea is we'll known in athletic cir
cles. He was formerly shortstop of the
famous Haverleys. of which team Bill
Lang and other prominent ball players
were members. Until recently Shea
was employed as advertising man.
The property loss will not exceed
$4,000.

AWAKENED BY FLAMES.

Mrs. Shea was the first to awaken
when the flames broke into their apart
ments in the third story of the fat, and
her cries awakened her husband. They
rushed together to the doors and stair
way, only to find their escape from the
building cut off in every direction ex-
cept through a small window at the
rear. Scorched by the flames which
roared at their backs, Mrs. Shea
tainted, and Shea was left to fight
single handed to save his wife and
himself.
Finding a coil of small rope in a
corner of the room, he tied one end
about Mrs. Shea's waist and attaching
the other to a table in the room, lifted
her out OF the window and lowered her
slowly to safety, where friendly hands
united the rope. Mrs. Shea is a large
woman, and Shea's hands were blis-
tered and cut to the bone as he paid
out the rope during her descent Hav-
ing lowered her to the ground, he drew
UP the slender line and prepared to
lower himself

THE REV. DoREMUs


China. Long ago we said that the re-
suit of this war decided what race
should dominate the greatest of the
continents. Long ago we showed what
menace lay in the tawny millions that
confront us across the Pacific. And
week by week, and month by month.
since the war ended, we have traced
the growth of this predicted change
we have marked the rise of the senti.
ment, China for the Chinese" which
is now sweeping China like a flood; we
have noted the synchronous growth of
hatred, contempt, and fury at men of
whIte race; we have chronicled the
endeavor OF China and Japan to wrest
from the West its industrial suprem.

cites as a noble trait the Chinese am.
bition to intermarry with Hawailans,
whites, and Porto Ricans. and notes
that some OF our best families have
thus come to possess a strain OF Chi
nese blood; the Rev. Doremus sayi
that Chinese OF mixed blood ARE as
proud of their country (America) and
exercise their franchise with as great
conscientiousness as the descendant
