MORE WORK FOR

HEALANl BOAT SCOOPS
LIVE MULlET INTO
CRAFT FROM WATER

While a Healani crew were rowing
in the harbor yesterday evening In one
of the racing boats, a 3.pound mullet
jumped or was scoOped into the boat.
The fish landed with great swish at
tile feet Of young Grace and he almost
capsiaed the boath by the sudden start
he was given, believing that 1t was a
shark attacking the crew.
The racers pulled back to the boat
house and the mullet was duly pre-.
scented to Charlie, the club janitor This
janitor, Japanese, is very practical
and he instantly appraised the fish az
worth fifty cents, but like many others
about the club, he asked: What did
he do II for"
Some OF the members thought the
fish was attempting to escape from q
shark, But the Oarsmen involved are
all of one opinion - they claim they
were going so exceeding fast that the
fish was just naturally scooped into
the boat by suction.
That's some going.

PREFER AN EARLY DEATH
TO OLD AGE IN POVERTY

Paris, Jan. 1.-Strange light is
thrown on the remarkable suicide of
the French socialist, Paul Lafargue. and
his wife, By the injection of poison
which Lafargue himself had distilled.
The story Is told In the socialist jour
nal, "Humanite," by DIR. Longuet, the
nephew and executor OF Lafargue. For
years 1t had been supposed that La
fargue was very wealthy man and he
was also credited with being more or
less a miser. The very opposite was
the truth. Lafargue and his wife were
almost penniless at their death. They
left behind fortune of less than 800.
What they lid is an astounding revela-
ton of some Of the wild theories of
socialism. Ten years ago Lafargue was
well-to-do. but he was so years of age
and he decided that 10 years ahead
his life would not be worth living. Hus-
band and wife agreed that at 10 their
existence must come to an end. La.
fargue therefore divided his fortune
into 10 parts. one part Of which was to
be spent each year. He declared that
10 years OF life In plenty, free from all
pecuniary cares, was preferable to
longer life with more economy and posi
sibly failing health and strength at TIL
end.

into books and novels by the writers
Of her day. For more than 40 years

fate and chance and has played fol
stakes that have at times bewilderet
and confused the shrewdest detectives
Of the country.
