All MOON BEAMS IN CELESTIAL JOY:
HE WINS AT TAN THE FAIR FOY TOY

SAN FRANCISCO. May 24.-Be-
cause of his ability at fantan, All
Moon is basking in the smiles of
pretty Foy Toy, a Chinatown belle.
while preparations for their wed.
ding are being made.
The fact that Moon bears upon
his broad countenance disfiguring
marks of a personal encounter with
Charley Dong. who also loved the
small Foy Toy, but whose fantan
ability is not so marked, makes nc
difference to the maid.
Moon and Dong were suitors for
Foy Toys hand, and when her de-
cision that they must decide be-
tween themselves which was the
better man was given, game OF
fantan was arranged upon.
The defeated one attacked the
winner savagely, and but for the
interference of the police might
have inflicted more than facial
injury upon his rival.

CAUGHT AT LAST

Old Chinese Jim, one of the vet

was arrested this afternoon by De-

ing an opium joint. A large, collec-
tion of pipes and alcohol lamps, to-
gether with a quantity of the drug,
are in possession of the police.
Jim held forth in the old Yale
block. His arrest was brought
about as the result of the capture
of Rose Hackinberry early this
morning. Rose had evidently been
smoking opium and her clothing
still retained a strong scent of the
stuff when she was brought to the
station. Four exist are arranged in
the rear of the smoking rooms and
all the smokers made their escape
through these before the Officers
could break down the front en-
trance to the place. jim has been
| running the place for about two
months, according to the police.

WEDDING MUST
WAIT AWHILE

The wedding of Ruth Harris and
Wesley Laisure will have to watt
a bit for the same reason that de-
lays many another wedding
planned under far more favorable
circumstances. Laisure figured it
over and concluded it would be
wiser to wait. even If he had to
wait in Jail. until he could get in
communication with his parents
back in Indiana The reason for
that is the necessity of having
something with which to set up a
domestic establishment. Leaping
out of the army into matrimony Is
seldom accompanied by an over
load of cash.
The prosecuting attorneys Office
has taken a favorable view of this
aspect of the case and negotiations
are now under way to remove the
last 81 one i'm a rocku road for each
of the couple.
The girl. sick of her plight and
impatient to repair it as soon as
possible. is willing to resign her
self to waiting if that will make
more secure the fulfillment OF
promises on which she staked ev
erything. Laisure evinces no dis
position to disappoint her now.
