That An Hing, alleged strong arm
man Of the See, Yup Chinese Society
was ordered to. assault Ching You
HoOng, editor of the Chinese newspa-
per, Wa Hing Pau. because of his edi
torials in favor of Yuan SHAH ai and
against the Sun Vat Sens, was the
statement made by certain prominent
Chinese politicians last night.
An Hing appeared in the police court
yesterday morning, in answer to a
charge Of assault and battery preferred
against him by Hoong. Attorney Lor-
rim Andrews, who had been retained to
assist In the prosecution, asked that q
bond Of $1,000 be fixed against Hing.
The court set the amount at $3.50, and
Hing was released on bond.
A great deal of agitation and ire was
aroused among the Chinese yesterday
and last night, resulting from mass
meetings held by the different tongs,
in which the defenders Of the Yuan
Shihrkai, rule, bitterly attacked the
methods employed by the See Yup
Tong, followers of Sun Vat Sen.

On the passenger list Of the Mauna

afternoon. she appeared as Miss d.
Lopez. That initial was for Domingo
Among the deck passengers was a
man named Lopez, little, weazened
Spaniard, n laborer on Koloa Santa
ton, Kauai. E.fa#
He was Dominga's father.
Yet she SHRINK from him when he
kissed her, and she was afraid. But
she had ceased weeping, for the strang-
er.woman and Miss Gould, superinten,
dent Of the Castle Home, had duieted
her somewhat, and she had promised
"nOt to ery.', ...t
1t was in August, 1914, that little
Miss LOpezss mother died, and she was
brought to the Castle Home. Last June
her father came to Honolulu and asked
for her custody. He consented to wait
5 months. T ".
Sunday he came, again. Miss Gould
cOuld do nothing to keep the daughter
at the home; Lopez was obdurate: he
was the parent, and that was enough
and Circuit Judge whitney and the
Spanish consul could do nothing.
Therefore Domingo had to sail for
Kauai yesterday. She hardly knew her
father; she almost had forgotten him;
and she did love the Castle Home.
And il was doubly bad because she
lost all her knowledge of Spanish while
here, and the father speaks no Eng
fish.
1t was not surprising that girl,
eight years old on May 12, 1916, should
bear a tear-stained face.

About fifty people were present, among them being several members of the local canning club.

Mrs. Jelks had several gallons of green beans picked and carried to the lawn where the demonstrations were held and where the girls prepared and canned them. The occasion afforded much pleasure and profit to all who were fortu- nate enough to attend.
 The girls are much interested in their work and report their tomatoes in fine condition. Some few are beginning to ripen. We are anticipating a fair in the fall when we can see what our girls have accomplished.

The Clover And Grass Cam
 paign.

One hundren fourteen regular extension workers in Arkansas are enlisted in the campaign for more clovers and grasses in the state. Over five hundred bankers and thousands of other business men are urging farmers to in- crease their clover and grass acreage. A thousand country teachers in rural summer schools are being provided with les sons' and bulletins on clovers. Three hundred patroitic editors of newspapers are opening their column for articles and letters about clovers and grasses, es- pecially letters about local suc- cesses. Remember that clovers, unlike other crops, will pay a profit if neither cut or pastured. Let every farmer get into the game and plant from five to ore- hundred acres of one or more clovers. Let every farmer re- solve to have from three acres to one hundred acres of Bermuda or Orchard grass with two or three clovers added. See the county agent and tell him you want to join the Glover Bri- gade" and get bulletins and sug- gestions. If no county agent, see the local banker for bulletins or write the Extension Division, College of Agriculture and U. s. Department of Agriculture, Fay etteville or Little Rock, for bulle- tins on Red Clover, Crimson Clover, Bur Clover, Japan Clover or Bermuda.
