QUEUES CUT OFF
BY CHINESE HERE
Capital Celestials Separated
from Their Pigtails.

A memorable day was yesterday to
tens of thousands of Cinnamon through
out the world. The day had been set
apart as fitting time for the wholesale
destruction of the ancient hirsute ap-
pendages. commonly called queues, and
countless thousands of them were Topped
off.
Most of the Washington Cinnamon
were separated from their pigtaiIs. The
decree from China was in no way bind
ing. although all were urged to comply.
The death-dealinG strokes of the shears
were accompanied by no ceremony in
this city. Here and there the long
haired Cinnamon gathered in small
groups and miniStered relief to one an
other with the grim steel blades of the
scissors
Charley Lee. a wel-known habitue of
Chinatown, was in ecstasy after parting
with his hair. Alice samee to me- Feel

Short-haired ones.

mony. WI Ting-fang. formerly Chinese

Vately.
