CHINESE BRIDE TO
BE RETURNED HOME

WASHINGTON. Dec. 26.-The re-
turn of Mildred Wen to her home
Yesterday from the refuge of a girl
friends house in another section OF
this city solved the mystery of her
disappearance Friday night on the
eve. of her marriage. 1t also changed
the day to a real Christmas for the
Wen family.
Her little sister was refusing to
have anything to do with the toys
Santa Claus had brought her, Mrs.
Wen was in state of collapse and
the girls uncle had just offered
5000 reward for her return when IN
she walked.
The girl, while expressing her re-
morse for the act and willingness TO
maHy, intlmated that her going was
a protest against the Chinese Gus
tom Of arranging marriages without
asking the wishes Of the bride-to-be.

is 1T KNICKERBoCKER?

Although this name is taken as
the traditional name of the presid-
ing genius of old New York the
Knickerbockers never were very
numerous there and a dozen or so
families might be mentioned that
were more influential. The founder
of the family was one Herman,
Hansen Knickerbocker OF Friesland,
Holland, who came to New Amster-
dam and settled at the head of navi-
cation of the Hudson river One
of his descendants, Colonel Johannes
Knickerbocker. had a son Herman.
who was a representative. Colonel
Colonel Johannes inherited the
Schaghticoke grant from his fathers
oldest brother. Herman Knicker-
booker. who got the title from the
Duke of York through the city of
Albany. Herman. the representa-
tive. got possession of part of tho
tract and built a mansion there that
was far finer than any previous
KnickerboclScr mansions. He was
thereafter known as the prince of
Schaghticoke and his hospitality
there was so prodigal that he event
ually exhausted his fortune. Wash
ington Irving was n friend OF Her
man Knickerbocker and when the |
latter was i'm Conrgess the great |
writer itroduced him as MY cousin. !

Historian Of New York" though it
was of course Washington Irving's
genius that was responsible for the
spelling generally adopted, but
Bishop p. Knickerbocker chose'what
he considered an older spelling. He
was the son of the preceding Her
man and followed the spelling found |
in papers of his grandfather. He
was born at Schanghticoke in 1893. |
became an Episcopal clergyman, was
third bishop of Indiana and was |
widely known and honored for his

Beatrice fell into troubled sleep
but awakened when the first ribbon
Of light stretched along the eastern
horizon She sat up, laying the
blankets back with infinite care. This
was her chance: Ben still lay asleep.
Just to steal down TO the water'e
edge, push of the canoe, and trust
her hfe to the doubtful mercy OF the
river.
She could discern the black sha-
dow of the canoe. She stepped
nearer.
But at that instant subdued note
Of warning froze her in her tracks
A great, gaunt form raised up
from the pile Of dufile in the canoe;
and his fangs showed ivory white ir
tn wan light. 1t was Fenris, and
he guarded the canoe. He crouchedi

After breakfast they took 10 the
river, yielding themselves once more
10 the whlms OF the current.
Shortly before the noon hour
Bens quick eye saw a break in the
heavy brushwood that lined the
bank and quickly padded toward IT,.
In a moment more he pushed the
canoe into the mud Of the creek

And all at once, Beatrice, walking
In front drew up with gasp.
She stood at the edge OF a little
glade. perhaps thirty yards across,
laying at the base OF the cliff. The
creek flowed through Il, the grass
was green and rich. beloved by the
antlered herds that came to Craze,
the tall spruce shaded II on three
sides. But IL was not these things
that caught the girls eye. Just at
the edge OF glade a dark hole
yawned In the face of the cliff.
ITS home" the man said simply.
CHAPTER XII
A Strange Comradeship.
Ben and Beatrice went together
back to the canoe. and in two trips
they carried the supplies to the cave.
Tired from the hard tramp, yet
sustained by vague excitement
neither Of them could name or trace,
they began 20 prepare for the night.
The silence dropped about them.
Settling slowly; and all except the
largest heap OF red Goals burned
down to gray ashes.
The brush cracked and rustled just
beyond the glowing Goals.
Some huge wilderness creature
was venturing toward them, nj the
edge OF the little glade.
What is it?" Beatrice whispered
Tho mans eyes strained into the
gloom.
81 don't know. 1t may he Just n
moose, or maybe n caribou. But it
may he"
Hiss eyes fell on the crouching
form OF Fenrls.
Ben leaped to reach ihs gun.
AT him. Fenrlsl" he shouted. The
wolf leaped forward like a thrown
spear-almost too fast for the eye to
follow.
Thereafter there was only a great
confusion. event piled upon event
with incredible rapidlty. A grizzly
lunged into sight with incredible
storm OF sound
Immediately the wolf sprang
ready TO wage his unequal battle to
the death. But his brave fight was
tragically hopeless. Yet by the law
OF his wild heart he could not turn
and fee. His master had given his
orders, and he must obey them to
the end.
The bear paused one instant. thei
lupged forth again.
But the breath in which tho wolf
had stayed tho charge had given
Ben his chance. With n swift mo-
tion OF his arm he had projected
the single rifle shell into the cham
ber Of the weapon. The stock snap-
ped to his shoulder: and his keen.
glittering eyes sought the sights.
His finger pressed back steadily
against the trigger The slightest
hlnching. the smallest motion might
yet throw Off his aim. The rifle
spoke with a roar.
The grizzly was In his death
agony. nothing more: yet IN that
final convulsion he could rip into
shreds the powerful form that op-
posed him. Ben dropped the empty
rifle and seized the axe that leaned
against a log OF spruce beside the
fire.
just in time Ben spEsng aside. out
OF the reach of those terrible fore.
arms; and his axe swung nightly
In the air.
Ben's powers increascd rather
than lessened. Ever he swung his
terrible axe with greater power.

El Imparcial. (San Juan, P.R.) 1918-197?, 1922-10-28

Esa es la ventana de Carmen. iPoeta,
despliega tn RIGA capa sevillanaJ
de roios embozos, ante esa ventana
desde la que Carmen canta una "saeta"!
Vejas procesiones de Semana Santa.
Noches perfl,madas de amor en- Sevilla;
iaroma de acacias de manzanilla,
mientras la "saeta" tiembla EN- SUI garganta!
iCarmen, Carmen, Carmen. ..!-Maga AnG
Evoca tn nombre la melancolia
de esta raza enferma de lujuria fe..
Las festas de toros las procesiones,
las blancas mantillas; los negros mantones
IL aquella tristeza que vic Merimee!
