FOUND WORKS OF STEVENSON
Manuscripts and Works of Popular
Writer Unearthed In Samoa and
Hawaii, by an AdmIrer.

1t is learned that a number Of new
and relatively important manuscripts
OF Robert Louis Stevenson have been
discovered In Samoa and in Honolulu
by an ardent admirer of the great
novelist, who has been for some time
in both Hawaii and Samoa seeking
such writings OF the famous Scotsman
as might possibly be found in the pos
session of some of the many friends
OF Stevenson during his years in the
Pacific.
The result Of this research has been
the finding of an essay, said to be
highly poetical In character, written
by the novelist after witnessing vol
cano in action, supposedly either the
famed crater OF Savaii or the pit of
Kilauea in Hawaii; a piece of fiction
dealing with South Sea life, and a
number Of smaller verse compositions.
Still another manuscript. blank
verse relation of a well-known legend
Of Maui, Of considerable length, but
unfinished, has also come to light, and
the enthusiastic admirer of Stevenson
feels highly rewarded for his month
of effort

crussed to the Field OF the Cloth Of
Geld From the size and construc-

she WAS large manofwar, aud the
position In which she lies leads to
the conclusion that she must have run
ashore In an ancient dock or creek. as
she lies on an even Keel twenty feet
below the surface OF the wharf, In
Atich an excavation was being made
when this vessel was discovered.

ARE PROUD or BIG FAMILIES

The Chinese are proud OF large
families. and large family living to
gether under one roof is looked upon
as proof OF the good temper and
correct course OF life OF its members
and as sure path to prosperity. A
large family which Is able to live to-
gether without dividing up the prop
erty always receives much credit ana
Is highly respected. II is one OF the
highest distinctions In China to have
WI Flu T'ung Tang or five genera
tons, under one roof. although sucn
q distinction Is attained by very lew.
According to recent census, the
family Of Meng Yu Shih. widow OF
the village of Mangtao. in the terri
tory OF Wei-hai-wei. has the distinction
Of being the largest in the land. Her
family consists Of sixty-six members
and. with one servant, there are sixty
seven mouths to be fed daily. Meng
Yu Shih ia sixty-six years old. ana
has nine sons and numerous grass
children and great grandchildren all
living under her roof. She has not
yet attained the ambition of being the
head OF WI Flu T'ung Tang, but the
size of her family has already given
her the honor and pleasure OF being
the largest in China, even II she has
not FIVE generations under one roof.
There are many households with
more than forty members, and almost
J all old and distinguished families Oh
China have at least twenty members.
Families of small size. three or four.
are considered rather bad, even II they
are rich and occupying high positions.
Size of family is as valuable In China
as size of stronghold.
