The Monaghan and the
american Girl

A recent deplorable tragedy in
New York's Chinatown, ought to set
reformers to thinking how to ere
form the perhaps honest but ill
advised missionary work done by
certain metropolitan churches among
the Chinese-mostly "coolies" -who
have settled in this country.
No doubt the souls of the Chinese
are as precious in the sight of their
Creator as are the souls Of the white
Should we send our girls into China
town perhaps to become moral and
physical wrecks in order to save-or
attempt to save-the Monaghan?
AS long ago as 1886-at a time
when the writer was a very young
mamie pondered long on the meth
DDS employed by one Of New YOrk's
most influential Sunday schools. 1t
seemed to him then-and subsequent
events have strengthened his belief
that turning a single Chinaman
over to a refined girl for instruction
was the height of indiscretion-not
to put it in stronger terms.
Why give Monaghan individual
instruction anyway? Is he entitled
to any greater consideration than our
own boys and girls? And even
though this is conceded, if you are
desire of giving him the Truth, and
he must have individual instruction
what is the objection to sending
our bright young men to him? If
the heather are really anxious to
avail themselves of the Christ Prin-
ciple, we should not endanger our
girls by close association with the
often designing Monaghan. He ought
to be taken in charge by our young
men.

would leave little ground for self
graduation. Three-fourths of the
exports consist of raw material, haul
ed off by foreign steamers. 1t is be-
cause the material resources of the
country are Cor were) great, and
these are carried off by other coun-
tries which make big profits on the
manufacture and trade in this mate
rial, while the United States is dis

the wheat, cotton, lumber, and other
articles were first manufactured at
home, and then exported, the value
would be from three to ten times
greater. Most of the imports to the
United States comes on foreign YES
sells which carry back loads of raw
material for manufacturing purposes
in foreign countries. Other nations
make manufacturing profits on raw
material from this country which
gives the producers no profit at all.
While much of the natural boun-
Diary of the United States is formed
by navigable waters, yet it has fewer
merchant vessels on the oceans than
any other commercial country that
can boast of one hundred miles of
water front. 1t has a large navy of
war vessels, but these are but an ex-
pense to the government. While the

Unspeakable things are occasional
ly leaking out, due to the false no
ton that young girls have refining
influence over the Chinese, and the
earlier the reformers get after this
practice of Individual instruction of
the Monaghan by our pretty Ameri-
can girls the less will be the sorrow
occasioned in our homes by the init
mate association Of young girls with
INSCRIPTIONS coolies.
Since the above was written, Miss
Helen Clark, who has labored for
seventeen years among missionaries,
being director of the Clark Mission,
at No. 1916 Worth street, New York
city, substantiates our attitude by
very strong language.
There are many things to be said
on both sides of the question, in de-
tense as we'll as in arraignment of
the Chinaman,'' said Miss Clark
"Only person on the inside can un-
derstand. But there is only one an
swer to it all. White women must
leave the lives of Chinese men alone"
And you do not believe any white
woman should endeavor to Chris
tianize Chinamen?" she was asked
For seventeen years l have urged
the folly of that. All about me l
have, seen the ruin and wrecked
homes. Case after case that parallels
Elsie Sigel's, with the exception of
it's tragic termination. But even SO,
death is better than some things. I
have believed from the very begin
ming that it was impossible for white
women to properly influence Chinese
men. My belief and practice on this
point have made my labor harder and
my mission attendance smaller In
my classes for Chinese men I have
had Christian men as teachers

of a fracas at the Sinton, the lead
ing hostelry Of the city, where the
actress inflicted hatpin wounds or

The actress, 1t Is declared, had
been drinking during the evening
and when the bar closed at mid
night she called a messenger boy
and endeavored to have some
whiskey smuggled into her room.
Night Clerk William Hittlch and
Waterman Adam Matz protested,
when the actress, it is said, seized
Hittlich and tried to force him
down the elevator shaft. A des-

the Bonita woman, armed with a
hatpin, made repeated thrusts into
the flesh of both men. Hittlich' S

DIVORCED II DAYS
AND Welded AGAIN
(By United Press)

LOUISVILLE. KY, April 27.-On
April 10 Mrs. Blanche McCullom
was granted a divorce from Oscar
McCullom. While Mrs. McCullOm
was in a lawyers office Tuesday to
consult with him relative to the
fee she owed him, her divorced
husband came in to pay the attor-
ney.
The lawyer had represented
both, as the proceedings were filed
by agreement. A. c. Ponham, the
attorney in the case, asked McCul-
lom if he did not know his wife,
and he replied in the affirmative.
Mrs. McCullom smiled, and within
a few minutes the couple was on
the way to the county clerks office
to get a license to marry again.
They met Judge Shackleford Mil
Ter, who had granted the divorce.
The chancellor said Cupid was
certainly a funny fellow" and he
annuled the decree of divorce.

OKLAHOMA PHILOSOPHY
FROM COONEY

vice president of the State Fedora
ton of Labor, has been heard from.
He is on a farm near Lawton,
Oklahoma, has been working hard
and says his crops look fine. In
speaking of his new vocation
CoOney says:
Il suppose it will sound funny to
get a letter like this from me.
However, | am going to herd the
mule from now on, work or no
work. | will never ask another
man for job. l don't believe
there is anything to it."
In writing of the treatment ac-
corded labor by the recent legisla-
ture, Cooney says:
Il received a statement from
Charles Perry Taylor of what the
legislature did for the laboring
people and it certainly made me
smile. laid it gently away so as
not to make it any worse. 1t GER
tainly is bad to the core; it is a
discouraging fact that the employ
ers can go to the legislature and by
lobbying carry their point, and it
is organized labor which elects the
tools.

at $3.50, and my mind rests easy.
