CHE "A ONLY
FOR FUN, THE
BANKERS LOST

In the Waimana1o gambling case
the Jury returned into Court yester-
day afternoon, and announced that it
had resolved to discharge one of the
seven remaining Japanese charged
with having played che ia. With re-
gard to the other six, they were
found guilty and Judge Cooper re-
served passing sentence until nine
o'clock this morning.
Before sentence was passed, Lor-
rim Andrews, who appeared to defend
told how the game came to be played
by the principal. These men, he
said, we're suffering from a dearth of
amusements, so the principal, purely
with a view to filling a long-felt want,
purchased a che ia set. The man
was not thoroughly .conversant with
the game, and almost invariably lost
money on each transaction. But he
provided amusement, and after all,
that was what he wanted, so he did
not mind his losses. He considered
that il was a good cause.
The court then fined the banker
CMurakamn 5000, the clerk, Euro
kawa) 500, and the other four $40
each.
Lorrin Andrews submitted motion
for new trial, but it was not allow
ed, and he was granted twenty days
in which to file his exceptions.

Across Lafayette square, due west from the
Cosmos club. is the vacant Decatur mansion.
This house was built by Commodore Stephen De
catur in the year 1919. and it was from its por-
tails that he went forth one year later to meet his
death at the hand of James Barron, also a naval
officer. who had challenged Decatur to a duel. 1t
is American history and the circumstances are
known to all but it might be said that it was
Barron who was in command Of the United
States ship Chesapeake at the time it was over
hauled by the British ship Leopard and searched
for alleged dCserters from the British navy.
Books have been written about Lafayette
square. but the stories that are told about the
men whose statues are in the square, and about
the men who lived in the houses surrounding it.
arc endless, and not all OF them, perhaps, have
found their way into print. The statue of Lafay-
ettc was erected at one corner Of the square not
long after the statue OF Andrew Jackson had
been put in place i'll tn" center of the square,
provided a square can BE- said to have a center.
Lafayette visited America in 1925. and even to-
day one hears occasionally of some living person
who remembers his visit.
Not long ago there died in Chicago, at her
home on Elm street. the aged Mrs. Davidson.
She was born in Charleston, S. c. Her maiden
name was AnCrun: snp wa Il gran daughter of
Col. William Washington, a first cousin of George
WaElingtCn. 1t was William Washington who
at TIC battle of tie Covpc:S fought a hand-to-

feet long, the first one being four
inches in diameter, the second five
inches, the third six inches, with two
inch holes through each log about a
foot or so from each end. Then put
a chain through each hole, tie a knot
in the chain between each log. This
keeps them from all drawing together.
Have your chain long enough so that
it is two or three feet longer than the
logs require. This is left in a loop
in front to hitch your team on; then
it is ready for use. The logs thus
fastened do not draw rigid, but what
the first log oes not do the second

liam Washington. and when he visited Charleston
in the year 1925 he was a guest at the AncrHm
residence, Mrs. Ancrun, the mother of Mrs. Da-
wilson, being a daughter of Colonel Washington.
Mrs. Davidson, then a child six or eight years
old, remembered the visit perfectly and kept
until she died a present which Lafayette had
given to her. the grandchild Of his old friend and
comrade In arms.
There is no statue of Washington in Lafayette
square, though one day there may be, for It is
said to be possible that Andrew Jackson may be
put elsewhere and George Washington may take
his place. The nearest physical approach, SO to
speak, that one gets to the first president, i'll La
fayette square, is in the White House, which
fronts it. 1t may not be generally known that the
White House was completed before Washington
died. 1t was only q few days before his death,
as Washington tradition has it, that George and
Martha Washington walked through the recently
completed White House, to give their approval
or disapproval, as it may be, of the arrangement
of the rooms. 1t is possible that that visit to
the capital was the last one which the Father
of his Country made. for it was only a short time
Vernon.
Reference to Mount Vernon brings to mind
the fact that there is living in Washington today
an aged man named John Lane, who is the only
living person who ever saw George Washington.
Now, inasmuch as the Father of his country died
III years ago, this may seem to be something
pretty close to a false statement on its face, but
it is the truth nevertheless.
When John Lane vas a small boy the driver
of a stage that ran between Washington and
Mount Vernon asked the lad if he wanted a ride.
and the answer was a hasty climbing up to tn.
seat of honor by the driver. The boy made the
trip all the way to Mount Vernon and arrived
there just as they were removing the body OF
Washington from the old tomb to the new one.
In order to make certain that the remains had
not been ta1npered with by ghouls who not long
before had broken into the old tomb, the coffin
was opened and John Lane, aged ten. was lifted
uD to look on the face of the Father of his Coun
try. Mr.. Lane today is the only person who
survives Of the little company which was present
at the transfer OF the body.
