AFTER blowing the comic opera bunch
Sudd next conceived a violent sympathy
for the hordes Of buns with which Los
Angeles was infested at the time. He
made arrangements with a crafty caterer
to have the buns fed. The caterer put up a
huge eating tent, and a smaller cook tent
on . lot on the outskirts OF town and con-
tracted with Judd to feed every bum that
swung along at the rate OF 81 per day per
man for three months. Judd provided
scores of kegs OF beer every day for the
buns, who foeked to the eating tent from
all over California and by the thousands.
Big d-etaehments OF police had to be sent
out to keep the buns in order. This bum
benevolence Of judas lasted for fifteen
days, when the police closed It down on
account OF the disorders and depreciation
OF the beer hordes. Feeding and heering
those several thousands Of buns for the
fifteen days denied Judd'S roll to the
tune OF almost $4,000.

Castro Grows Over Holland, Although

Willemstad, Aug. lit seems that
the authorities refused to permit the
Dutch cruiser Gelderland to enter the
port of La Guayra, and this act was re-
garded at the capital in the light OF a
defeat for The Netherlands men-of-

ton by President Castro, at which
there was music and dancing, and,
when the president made his way
through the streets of the city, he was
given an ovation.

The Netherlands vessel went into La

YELLOW PERIL is REAL.
Canadian Statesman Says America
Has Cause to Fear.

Montreal, Aug. Is. - I. Hamer
Greenwood, the most prominent Cana
dian in the British parliament, and a
member of the executive committee OF
the Liberal party of Great Britain, who
is visiting Canada, predicts a conflict
between Japan and America. He says
Japan is preparing to restrict the
overflow of her people into countries
where they are not wanted, but it does
not require prophet to foresee that
the feeling between these swarthy
John Bulls of the Pacific and the white
races of America may soon grow acute
and may mean war. Just now Japar
is having a struggle to make both ends
meet in national finance and has GU
down her naval and military program
by large amounts.
81 have no doubt myself, however
that when she gets over the enormous
losses of the late war with Kussi'
there will be trouble. If she can sti
up and force an alliance with hal
awakened China the yellow peril VIII

They Adjourned without Permitting
the Kansas City Woman to Talk.
Some women have the funny idea
that they are born to be orators. They
seize every opportunity to deliver adj
dresses and frequently disturb meet
ngs by their demands to be heard, says
the New York Telegraph. One of the
most persistent public speakers l ever
knew was Mrs. Blank Of Kansas City.
When she could not find a meeting
ready made to address she would hire
a hall and call a rally and do all the
talking herself. Once upon a time a
meeting was called for the purpose of
devising means to strengthen the State
militia; l think it was intended to
merge several Independent companies
into the national guard or perhaps raise
regiment. Anyway, it was something
lin which men and men alone were in
terested. Judge then Of the surprise
f the Missouri majors and captains
and colonies to see Nine. Blank sitting
in their midst when the meeting was
| called 10 Oruer.
The patriotic Col Crisp made short
address, and when he sat down Mrs.
Blank arose and, raising her hand,
cried out;
Gentlemen, an American patriot
once said"
The chairman interrupted her and
said that Col. Allen was the next speak
er. He was heard and Mrs. Blank again
hopefully arose to her feet. She fixed
the presiding officer with her eye and
cried aloud:
"Mr. Chairman, an American patriot
once said"
Col. Moore, who presided, told bel
that the former sheriff, Col. John c
Hope. who had served under Price II
the Confederate army, was on his lis
as next speaker Would she please

The adventures of no dashing rover
Of fiction make more exciting reading
than the true history Of Capt. John
Manly. The valuable aid of the priva-
teers during the Revolutionary period
has always been recognized and ac-
knowledged by the navy, and it is in
appreciation Of the fact that Torpedo
Boat No. %" bears the name of the
gallant captain, Edgar S. Maclay, In
his History Of American Privateers,"
gives an account of Manly's services to
his country
Captain Manly took charge of the
Cumberland in 1779. Soon after he
took command he was captured by a
British frigate and carried to Barba-
dos, where he was cruelty treated. His
escape from prison was most auda-
cious. He bribed the jailer, fled from
his confines, seized an English govern
ment tender, placed the crew in irons,
and made his way to the United States.
He was Immediately placed In charge
Of the fine ship Jason Of twenty guns.
He had hardly left port when a squall
carried away his masts and left him
helpless. The fact of this disaster,
coupled with his misfortune on the
Cumberland, made the crew suspicious
and they mutinied.
disabled ship and a rebellious crew
are ditlicultie enough to dishearten
any commander; but Manly was not to
be downed by untoward circumstances.
With the vigorous help Of a cutlass he
reduced the mutiny, and brought his
ship to port for repairs. More than
that, he took two prizes, the Hazard
and the Adventurer. These he carried
to Boston. There he heard that a Brit
ish fleet Of merchantmen, homeward
5 bound, were supposed to be skirting the
) New England coast.
Manly could not lie quiet under such
news, and off he started In pursuit
One thick day the fog suddenly lifted
and revealed to the Jason fleet OF

again, he escaped.

several cases of revolver firing b,

militia patrols to keep moving, but a
soon as they were well past the group
of soldiers they drew their revolver
and fired into the air and fled down sid
streets, escaping in the darkness.
