Ruse That Failed

The c~alledup one volubly explained
that there was no need in his case
for a medical examination.
I'm fit and l want to fight. l want

but / want to have a hospital close,
so that if l get hit NJ time will be
wasted in taking me where l can get

Nothing"
"But, doctor, don't you think I'm a

Alonzo Cartley, his son, George

from drowning in the surf off Makua,
near Kaena point, Oahu, last Satur-

Nearly Slays-Two May Die Himself
Because Doris Leong Yuen, a pretty
Chinese girl of Hauula, windward
Oahu, had repulsed his advances be-
cause she was engaged to be married
in a few days, My Sung, a Chinese
rice field laborer employed by the
girls father, nearly succeeded in
numbering her sister-in-law, Ella
Ayung, and will himself probably die.
All three are in a hospital.
The assault occurred at the girls
home on Sunday morning. My Sung
first attacked Doris with a cane knife
almost severing one arm and other
wise seriously slashing her. The sis
ter-in-law is suffering from serious
cuts and bruises about the head. My
Sung then conceived the idea of finish
ing his work with a pan of gun pow
der, but in igniting it he sets himself
on fire and was probably fatally burn
ed. With his clothing in flames he
threw himself upon his intended vic
tim, who was also painfully burned
about the face.
Fearing some such attack, Lum Dai
Sun, father of the injured girl, has
asked for police protection for his
daughter, and this had been granted
for some days. My Sung meanwhile

MISSISSIPPI
STILL RISING
It is Expected to Creep up Until the
First of Next Week, but Only
Very Heavy Rains Will
Cause Flood.

The Mississippi river stood at ten
and half feet on the gauge here
this morning, having risen nearly
four inches. The rise was light above
here and the river was falling slight
ly at ST. Paul and whereabouts.
The Mississippi is expected to con-
tinue to rise slowly here and below
here until the first of next week, but
it will not go to the food stage here
unless remarkably hard rains fall all
over the northwest.
Below Keokuk, however, the situa-
ton may become interesting, as
the Des Moines is on a rampage
again. 1t rose Ave inches at Ottumwa
during the twenty-four hours ending

the flood line at Ottumwa. This
morning it was nearly two feet above
flood stage at Ottumwa.

Especially If he were the guest at
your hotel, a first class one, where
many men good for loans a hundred
times as much often stop.
Anyhow, the clerk at the Hotel
Iowa had that experience. He figured
