CHINESE FAKIR
 PEDDLES FORGED . LOTTERY TICKETS
Heather" Likely To Be Roughly Handled If He
 Is Caught.

New York. Oct 27.-Many New York salesmen in small stores are looking for a well-dressed Chinese, answering to the name of Lee. and If one of them meets him, there's go- ing to be little race war.
 Lee goes into a shop where the names of the salesmen are posted on the wall.
 where's MT. So and So?" he asks in perfect English.
 "Off duty, back at G." says the oth- CT salesman.
 That's too bad" murmurs Lee. with a smile that is pensive and child like. "He won $50 in the lottery this week and I wanted to give it to him" !"
 Of course, the salesman is interest ed. Lee tells all about the big Chi nese lottery he runs somewhere in Fourteenth street and consents to. sell tickets coveredI with oriental writing for $2 each. For a certain sum ad- ditional he will guarantee that the salesman's number shall win next time. Then Lee passes out, never to be seen again.
 The address in Fourteenth street is found to be a boarding house. where Chinese are not admitted. But none of the victims dares to appeal to the police, as it is a misdemeanor to buy lottery ticket. Instead, they are craving a second interview with the "heathen Chinee."

NEWSPAPER FILES BIG ASSET TO ALL
 LIBRARY PATRONS

The newspapers on file in the New York Public Library are being con- suited more than ever for all kinds ' of information, according to Louis
 H. Fox, chief of the newspaper divis-
 ion, who has done much to make the
 large reading room of which he has
 charge one of the most popular in the
 library. When asked if the greater
 number of persons, who visited the
 newspaper room merely sought to
 while away their idle moments, MT.
 Fox explained this was by no means
 the case.
 The newspapers are being used by
 an increasing number of persons for
 the purpose of compiling statistics re-
 garding the prices of securities and of merchandise of various kinds. Ideas from the newspapers are gath cred also by playwrights and short story writers, as well as by advertis- ing agencies, illustrators, and politi- cal press agencies.
 The war collection of newspapers from 40 different European cities has been useful to many investigators and continuous source of, interest to other readers. Of current papers in the newspaper division of the library, there are 256 American and 75 for eign publications, the latter repre- senting 26 different countries. Ap- proximate1y 1,500 persons daily make use of this collection of newspapers. An attendant at a large desk near the entrance to the reading room, who is ready to answer questions and
 assist readers in search of informa-
 ton is approached by visitor. asking in yeEy good English: ''Have you any
 Greek newspapersF' The attendant replies that the library has two, pub
 lished in New York City.
 Then comes a woman who asks for
 the latest paper from Stockholm. The
 attendant fills orders in rapid success
 sion for the latest paper from Paris,
 Berlin, China and Bridgeport, Conn. i;
 also the Jiji Shimpo, from Tolio. The
 Cape Times, from South Africa, a
 Montana newspaper, and papers from
 South America are furnished readers.
 Meanwhile the attendant has answer
 cd questions in regard to other news
 papers, directing readers to the diff
 ferent racks
 Now comes a demand for The New
 York Times of January, /105, which is duly supplied. Then there is a re- quest for cartoons relating to child labor.
 "In what paper are marriage licen- ses published2" asks a worried look ing woman whose daughter or son, perhaps. has taken the great plunge without parental approval. One woman wishes to look up the 4f he afov vsf Produgue," presented at Dalys Thea tre in 1895. She is provided with a newspaper index covering articles which appeared in the New York pa- pers for a long period of years. A studious looking man asks for
 New York newspapers of 1917 and | 1927, explaining that he is making ka study of ths history of advertising
The Bridgeport evening farmer., 1916-10-27

and wishes to see what the advertise ments of those days were like. An order for New York newspaper of 1926. and for an Albany paper of the same year is filled in a very short time. French papers of 1910 are applied for, and three different ones are supplied. Book reviews, art crit icisms and speeches made by promi- nent persons are some of the things asked for in the next few minutes.
 'Oh, good morning; I'm sure you can help me-" says a gentle voiced woman. "I want to find an- article which appeared in some newspaper during the last three or four years. It was about the Refining Influence of Graveyards in the Business Sections Don't you remember reading it? I'm sure read it, but can't tell just where. Oh, you certainly must have read it. It was. quite long article, about half page. with a prominent headline.
 Well, if you don't remember it, I'll look for it myself Do you have the New York newspapers on file three or four years back? You do? Isn't that lovely! I wasn't sure whether you-would have them or not. This is such an interesting place, this library; I must come here oftener. How are papers arranged-one year In book? Only one month? We'll, give me any month three or four years back, and I'll look through it.
 might find the article I'm looking for the first thing. No, don't care what paper I have, any one will do" A girl who inquires for pictures, of a Russian dancer is followed by a seeker of material for a biography of Lord Kitchener. "I am one of the heirs of John Smith.'' says a white haired woman His estate was advertised in the newspapers some years ago and I've just heard about it. If you have old New York papers, I'd like to look through some to see if I could find the advertisement. It means a good deal to me-" A young man ap- breaches the counter. tt
 T have been an aviator until re- cently," he explains, land I want to find some accounts of my trips if pos sible." He is supplied with material for his search.
