Survivor cf a Family of Plague Victims?Taking Great Strides. ? Honolulu, Hawaii.?Behind'the calm exterior of a life which she has built j up to a point 01 success sum mm sue is recognized as the foremost woman physician throughout the length and breadth of China, L?r. Yamei Kin. who passed through Honolulu recently on her way to the United States, has a life history that has few equals for romance and interest. Many years ago a physician of wealth and leisure named Doctor McCartee was traveling in the far East, going from village to village In China studying the language and customs. His quest lasted nearly fifty years. One afternoon he stopped for the night in a village devastated by the plague, and while walking about among the silent, death-marked huts he heard the wail of a tiny baby. He discovered an entire family lying dead in the hut, with the exception of a baby gl-|. Adopted Littfe Orphan. Having no child, the doctor adopted the little orphan and sent her to America for an education. He gave' her the best medical training that time ofTnrrlpfl hnnlnf to make of her a I great woman physician, and in time she was graduated from a medical college in New York city, an institution that ceased to exist when the Cornell and Columbia university medical colleges for women were opened. She is now Doctor# Kin. Never for a moment, however, did Doctor Kin forget the land of her birth, and as she grew to be considered a brilliant Chinese woman in America her efforts for the women of China were untiring. She has lec- ? tured and written In behalf of China, i and has held a position under the Chinese government with a view to * bringing the republic and the United States into better understanding. According to Doctor Kin, women In China are taking seven-league strides to rid themselves of the environment of practical vassalage under which they huve lived for ages past She predicts great things for an awakened China soon. The doctor is on t her way to the United States to make experiments which she feeis will be of benefit to her countrymen.

Fortunately the well was dry,'but! Switzer was badly bruised and dazed. He spent the night in a vain attempt to climb the sides of his prison. As morning dawned, Switzer deter-! rained to mnke his last effort to free himself. Catching with Both hands on the sides of the well, he climbed a few j inches at a time.. He worked cautious-. tjr, as his strength rapidly became | weaker. Finally Switzer reached the top and by grabbing a small bush he pulled himself from the hole of torture. He was found in a dazed condition by 1 . * . ms companions. j Arizona Students Hairless \ After Big "Cutting" Bee jj ;' Flagstaff, Ariz.?About forty ;!| JI young men here, half of thern J>"; students at the Northern Arizona j> I; Normal school, are minus their ||( 11 hair as a result of a students' !| prank.

WAISTLINE CAUSES ARREST Skinny Individual With Midriff Usee Fatty Arbuckle Attracts Folice Attention. Brooklyn, N. Y.?A young man as skinny as a living skeleton in a circus went into a tailor shop the other day and emerged in a few minutes with a waistline like Fatty Arhuckle's. Pa troltnan Jerry McMaKon, who witnessed the transformation from the corner, watched the man waddle slowly down the steps into a cellar. Then he called his partner. Patrolman Walsh, and, creeping: quietly to the stairs, made a dash through the cellar door. "He must have weighed 300 pounds and now he has ducked," exclaimed McMohon, insi as his pattner shouted: "Look here!" Walsh had stumbled over a holt of navy unif<*rm cloth and a lane quan-1 tlty unwound from another holt. There was perhaps $1,000 worth of goods in the pile. The fugitive, skinny once more, was found hiding in a dumb-waiter and arrested on a burglary charge. He gave his name as Joseph Riches and said he lived over the tailor shop. PLUM JELLY HIS UNDOING Fastens Crime of h usebreaking on. Aged Denver Colored Man. Denver, Colo.?Two jars of plum Jelly fastened the criipe of housebreaking upon Edward Hnynes, aged eighty- 1 three. It seems that Haynes could not oh- 1 tain work carrying the hod, so he starred out to get money m mjiih* umn j( way. He passed the home of Mrs. A. , M. McNeill, and the temptation to go inside and investigate was too great , for him to overcome. Among other things Haynes stole a < watch and tw#jars of plum jelly. The jelly he took to his room, but the watch he took to a Larimer street 1 loan office, where he obtained $6 on it. ' The pawnbroker was suspicious and notified the police. Detectives Mc-'j Cabe and Armstrong caught Ilaynes J on Larimer street while he was hur rving to his rooming place. Until the ( officers discovered the plum jelly hidden in his room Haynes maintained he < had purchased the watch from a man J1 whom he had met on the street. But j when the officers informed the negro that the plum jelly had been stolen ' from the McNeil home he confessed. ! I!
