Attempt to Stop Boycott
Against Japanese Makes
Governor Ridiculous

The Japanese liner Chiyo Maru, which
arrived yesterday from the orient,
brought word of heroic but fruitless
effort made by Sir Frederick Lugard,
the new governor of Hongkong, TO stop
the boycott that the Chinese inaugurated
Is months ago against Japan by way
of retaliation for the Tatsu Maru affair.
Incidentally, the Chinese scored another
victory and made the British governor
look ridiculous.
Shortly after Sir Frederick took
charge of the British colony he was ap-
preached by a. high Japanese official,
who said that so Chinese merchants in
Hongkong were responsible for the con-
tinuance of the boycott, and suggested
that If they were ordered to end it or
leave Hongkong they would call off the
embargo.
The Chinese merchants told Sir Fred
erick that they had no control over the
boycott. so he ordered them to leave the
British colony, but granted time for
them to set their affairs In order
Then followed run on the banks of
Hongkong. When the Withdrawals had
reached 81 zoo, 900 the bankers cabled to
the British government, begging that
the new governor might be made to be-
have.
Sir Frederick received a curt cable
gram from England, and the 90 Chinese
were notified that the governor had
changed his mind and would they please
stay. The coin flowed back to the
banks again and the incident was over,
except that the boycott probably gained
something in popularity.

WAR RENEWED OVER
CHEMICAL COMPANY
Minority Stock Holders COM
bine in Suit Against Directors

New forces were marshaled by the
minority stock holders OF the Carisa
chemical company yesterday against
the board OF directors In the war that
was declared last November. The COM
pany was organized to mine caustic
soda in the vicinity of Bakersfield. For
a long time the combat for those
not in control was waged alone by
T. N. Harvey, owner of 1000 shares of
stock, but he has at last rallied to his
support share holders whose holdings
represent in the aggregate $4,000.
Harvey has secured the services of
Attorney c. c. Boynton in behalf of the
minority. and an overflow meeting of
afternoon in his office in the Mills
building. 1t was decided by those pres
ent to press the prosecution of the
directors and especially +. NJ. Meigs
manager of the company.
There has been some delay since
Judge Sturtevant issued an order No
vember IA restraining Meigs and the
directors from making any more ex-
penditures. but Attorney Boynton will
now proceed with the suit against the
directors and mana gers, charging mis-
management and the unlawful appro-
priation of company funds.

A FEW WORDS WITH tie
LADY of tie HOUSE

The treatment by diet has been
placed on the safe and sound founda-
ton Of the physiology of nutrition. Not
only the selection of the quality and
quantity Of the food, but the manner
OF its preparation, the cooking, has re-
ceived attention of medical men, par
ticularly those whose attention is con-
centrated on diseases of metabolism
and Of the digestive organs. There are
probably few healing methods by
which more permanent good can be
accomplished than by a scientific meth
Cd of dietetic principles. 1t is much
to be regretted that the art OF cooking
has not yet been universally admitted
as an integral part Of the curriculum
IN schools for girls and young ladies.
It is unfortunate that in our well to
do and even in the middle classes cook
ing is considered a humiliating occupa-
ton, thing in which the modern
housewife takes but a very superficial
interest, leaving IT, in the great ma
jority of cases, to the cook, whose ex-
perience and ability is very variable
ouantity.-Dr. John c. Hemmeter.

Bicknell urged that. while one family
might be helped through removal from
unsanitary surroundings. 1000 families
would be helped through changing the
surroundings. Bicknelfs talk was
marked by a number of epigrams-con-
many years of charitable work. He
said in part:
Adequate relief means the right
quantity and the right quality at the
right time. Help for tomorrow may
not be suitable for today. 1t is not
enough to remove the people from un-
sanitary surroundings; remove or i'm
prove the surroundings.
