 l Every few years the Chinese gather IF their dead for shipment to and final re- interment in the soil of the Flowery
 Kingdom. For q month or more pre- viously to the sailing of this vessel local undertakers and those in other centers all over the Pacific coast were busy dig ging up the collins and sealing them In other caskets for shipment. From all western points trains brought large num- bers of confined .linese to make up this cargo of remarkable freight.
 Little ceremony was shown in the transfer of the plain white boxes from Celestials, agents of the society which looks after the dead Chinese in the United States of America, stood around and stol- idly watched the operation of holstins tho boxes from the pierhead in punches of four and lowering them into the yawn- ing holds of tho steamer,
 The sailors of the ship, also Chinese. did not appear to pay much attention to the work of loading their departed coun- trymen into the vessel for their last Yoy- age. All that might indicate anything untowarg taking place was the quantity of rice strewn around the decks, which looked as if it had been showered thore after a bridal party instead of death watch. The smell of roast pig and chicken coming from the forecastle also proved the Chinese sailors loyal to their belief that a dead Celestial must never be sent on his last trip without q first class meal la carte, comprising the above.

The child problem in the hotel has, it is believed, been solved. This matter that has caused so much concern to the management of these places has been conquered by one of the big Broadway houses.
 The extensive roof of the building is to be sodded and covered with glass in the summer and protected in the winter. The corridors will be clear of children. Par ents may go out sight seeing and shop ping and be sure that their children will be perfectly safe. Besides the natural equipment of the new roof garden a matron and other attendants will be on hand. There will be toys, doll carriages and other things necessary to make a child heart happy
 It will be the first distinctly children's s roof garden in the world. It is believed that this plan will relieve parents and also preserve the tempers of thu other hotel patrons.

The case of William H. Hamburger
and Mary Kane, who were arrest
ed Wednesday night in the old City

duct, came in the Police Court this

appearance at the next grand jury
term of the Corporatio nCourt. The
latter testified that she will be four
teen years old in October and that hel
relations with Mansburger began SIX
months ago and was the result OF
compulsion on the part of the man.
Hamburger said that, according
to a statement made by the girl tc
him, he was not responsible for the
lewdness Of her childhood.
Robinson Moncure, who was coun'
sci for Hamburger, suggested thai
the prisoner was wiling to marry the
girl provided proceedings against hin
were dropped. The girl, however
said she was not prepared to enter IN
to wedlock with him.
The court held Hamburger for the
action of the grand jury and directed
that the girl be detained until hel
father, Levi Kane, can arrange securl
ty for her appearance. Five witness
es were entered into rccognizance 1oi
their appearance when wanted.
Hamburger was fined $50 many
years ago for improper conduct, ane
