THE MOST REMARKABLE
WOMAN IN AMERICAN

In connection with automobile tour
ing, Mrs. Harriet Clark Fisher stands
foremost. This lady of wealth, whom
WI Ting Fang designated as the
most remarkable woman in America"
is best known by reason Of her recent
round-the-world tour. This trip,
which was accomplished in an Amer
ican-made automobile, a -Locomobile,
of forty horsepower, is still fresh in
the minds of motordom and the pub
lie at large. 1t is all the more re-
markable when it is known hat she
traversed thousands Of miles of noun
tains and plains where Automobiles
had dared venture. Without
maps or other data to assist her, she
accomplished the almost impossible.
She was warned hat certain roads
were impossible, particularly be-
tween Bombay and Calcutta, a route
she was the first to take and accom-
plish on this tour, Mrs. Fisher, to
use her own words, was striving to
kill care rather than derive actual en-

SPOKANE MAN
TELLS OF PLAGUE
REPORTS OF SUFFERING AND
MISERY NOT EXAGGERATED
Parents Driven TO sell Their Own
Flesh and Blood Into slavery in Or
der to Get Food-Chincse Boys sold
at S1.5O Each.

Details Of the terrible plight of the
natives in the famine districts of Chi
ma were brought to Spokane by Alfred
W. Bowman, a resident in the orient
since 1890 and until recently an in
structor in the government middle
school at Luchowfu, founded by Il
Ching Fang. Chinese minister to Eng
land.
Reports Of the famine suffering
n the misery and distress on every
hand are not o~verdrawn,' said Nr.
Bowman. There are at least 2.00s.-
600 natives in immediate danger Of
starvation and hundreds are dying
daily. In many instances parents are
driven to the extreme of selling their
WI flesh and blood for food.
Chinese boys are being sold in the
provinces south of the famine dist
riot for $3.50 in American money,
while not more than % cents each is
offered for girls. In fact, many OF
the poor families found i difficult to
sell them at any price.
When l left Luchowfu on January
10, thousands of refugees from the
~N---| 80 1T NtAt Shd lllAE llllO
Anhui, which is just south Of the fam
Inc belt. Many with whom talked
told narrowing tales Of misery and
distress and reported tina hundreds
were dying daily. 1 was told that
many children, principally boys, were
sold.
The country around Luchowfu, in
the province Of Anhui, had a good fall
crop, but throughout the country to
the north, where the crops were de-
stroyed by floods, there is terrible
suffering and every indication is that
the famine will be fully as disastrous
as the last one, when thousands died
from hunger"
Mr.. Bowman says the missionaries
are distributing relief funds, but are
not able to do much because their re-
sources are limited. He added that
food principally is required to sustain
the people until another crop can be
grown and harvested.
