"But they will not kill you,"
said Kim Chung, because this
shall be done according to the
White Mans law, and, the police
in the blue uniforms will stop
Bing Shi Ko and his. friends if
they attempted violence. !"
''All right" whispered Lu Chi,
and stole upstairs and spent
many hours making herself ever
more beautiful.
Then Kim Chung, who was
completely out of his senses,
went to,the Presbyterian mission,
and whispered that a slave girl,
a girl who had beenfbeught and
paid for, was held at the house of
Bing Shi Ko,Hthe merchant, on

Blink Shi ke went to the head
of his tong, and told him the
story. The head of Bing Shi Kos
tong sent a messenger to the head
of Kim Chung's tong, demanding
recompense for the stealing of Lu
Chi.
But the head of Kim Chung's
tongs breakfast had not agreed
with him, and he beat the mes.
senger of Bing Shi Kos tong, and
sent him back to his master with
an insulting message.
This explains why Kim Chung
and Lu Chi, the slave girl, were
found dead in room in the
Chinatown of Sacramento, and
why four other members of Kim
Chung's tong paid for the imper-
tinence of their chief and the
stealing of Lu Chi with their lives \
It also explains why there will
be many more killings in the
Chinatowns, because the Kim
Lums have armed, and sent word
to the Bing Shi Kos that they
will exact life for life, and the
war will not end until the Six
Companies, mighty arbitors of
the affairs of the American Chi
nese, get together and say
enough blood has been shed;
honor is satisfied" And this
will not come at once, for the
