IT MAY BE true
A CURIOUS TALE
Told About The Strategy
Of a Japanese
Cook
"NIe-his wife.--ycs.s.s.s.s.s.. "

"Me-his wife.--ycs.s.s-s.s.s.."
It was cleverly said, with musical
rythm attached to the yes. Only Il
little demure japanese maiden OF siX'
teen Oriental summers could say 1t In
such a laughable fashion.
But to her declaration a serious sit
uation is connected. According to a
report made by close friend Of the
alleged husband Of the tiny miss from
the fowery kingdom It Is a huge joke
with him. In fact he considers that
he has done something very clever
perhaps he disappearance Uncle Sam
may not think so II an investigation is
pursued.
This arfable japanese is a second
cook at one Of the popular seaside no
tells. Many years ago he loved girl
in Yokohama, and vowed that some
day, when he had accumulated sum.
cient American dollars, he would mar.
ry her. A stealthy rival, however. got
into the race. and the boyhood lover
was forgotten. Strategy-eyer upper
most in the japanese mind for the
means to an end, carefully planned 1t
all out-aiter hearing that his chances
had gone glimmering. While at the
hotel, he met and admired much an.
other girl of his own race, who was
unfortunately for him the wife Of the
first cook. Not that he forgot hls
first love. but he was flirting some
just, to pass the time away. But jcal,
ousy is a strange factor In love affairs
and the little wife had begun to look
on the second cook with favor. When
she heard of his plans to kidnap tho
girl of his youthful ardor, she said
nothing, but waited.
Through friend in Japan the sec
ond cook managed 10 secure the girls
consent to join him in Honolulu. But
an obstacle lay in the way OF consum'
mating this 'plan-Uncle Samuels
strict immigration laws. SO II was
decided that she should come as his
wife-how the marriage certificate was
managed-the details are not known
but at last she came. And she has
been here two months. On her arriv
al, the neglected wife of the first cook
who had been basking in the would.bC
bridegroom's smiles-got busy, In
tensely so. Knowing the whole sltua
ton, she first threatened the cooi
with exposure. then dared him tC
marry the girl.
What a lovely predicament to be
sure. For the Japanese maiden wa.
living in daily hopes of the promig,
made to her being fulfilled, that sh,
was to wed the man for whom she hlt
given mp home and all TO meet here
Then the second cook did a most re-
markable thing. He displayed tn
marriage license TO very close friend
and told him 1t was bogus, and thu
he had only prevailed on the girl {,
come to Hawaii on 5000 wager tina
he could sneak her through. AnuthC
story, however, is told that an en-
ployment agent figured In the aifall
and paid the second cook 5000 for tn
delivery of the girl who Is now seekin
household employment.

Game Law Revision.

The revision of the present fish
and game laws submitted in the bill
formed by the fish and game COM
mission of the lower house, although
fought bitterly, was recommended
for passage practically without modi-
fication today The attack on the
measure was directed in part at State
Game Warden Stephens. who, It was
asserted, had exceeded his authority
He. it was inferred, had constructed
the proposed enactment to further
private ends.
McCracken suggested veral
amendments and , although he made
sensational charges against the war
den, every alienation preferred was
cast aside. McKinlay requested un-
animous consent to have clerical err
rors corrected in the original draft of
the bill. The Ada county represen-
tative objected.
McCracken declared that Stephens
mad violated the law in regard to
fish hatcheries He then directed his
attention to McKinlay and offered an
amendment permitting seines and
nets to be used on the Clearwater
river as far as the stream meandered.
for catching salmon. substitute
was submitted by Anderson prohibit
ing seines and nets between April Is
and January l. at which time the fish
are on their way to the headwaters
to spawn. This was acceptable to

TORNADO KILLS
MANY PEOPLE
Wind and Flood Destroy Much
Property in Arkansas

LITTLE ROCK. Ark, Feb. ga
One of the worst tornadoes n the his
tory of the state visited its eastern
part today, and IA persons were
killed, scores of livestock injured,
and one town wholly demolished. The
tornado was accompanied by heavy
rain-a rain that literally came down
in torrents, ard in almost an instant
small creeks became raging and roar
ing rivers, and parts OF the country
were almost completely deluged.
The storm destroyed everything
that came within its trend. All tel
egraphic communication in the strick-
en- district is out of commission. and
1t is impossible to secure an accur-
ate report of the damages produced
and the lives lost. The greatest dam
ages seem to have been suffered in
Fisher and Pointset counties. Ac-
cording to the reports received much
property was destroyed in both of the
counties, and also eight persons
killed. In Woodruff county six peo-
pie lost their lives, and also much
damages was done to property The
storm was still raging ana a heavy
rain falling at late hour this after
noon.

Looks Reasonable.

That the Northern Pacific will tun-
mel through the Idaho-Montana d.
vide, and then extend its Wallace line
and make connections with the main
lire AT Hauser looks like reasonable
policy on the part of the road II 1t
intends to compete for the freight
and passenger traffic with the Mil
waukee road. This road will have
its line in operation from Chicago to
the. Puget Sound country by June Z,
and will then be In a position to car
ry both freight and passengers across
the country In less time than the
Northern Pacific and If the latter
road expects TO secure It's share of
the traffic il must shorten its present
line to compete with the Milwaukee.
1t is stated that the proposed tunnel
through the divide Is an assured fact
and that the Northern Pacific road
has leased or purchased from the Mil
waukee its power plant used In con-
structing the Taft tunnel, and that
this is the manner In which II will
secure its power for the tunnel 1t pro-
poses TO build, and which will have
Its western outlet near the town of
Mullan. Another fact which would
go to show that the Northern Pacific
road has contemplated move like
the above is the roads lack of inn
provement during the last years on
the main line which the new cutoff
would leave a branch line. The de-
pots are the same. no change and this
can be said of It's other buildings, and
generally in the way of improve
ments IT has not kept abreast OF the
times.
